Legendary treasures

Hello Pokemon fans! The Pokemon Company has announced that there is going to be a new set coming out this November 8, called Legendary Treasurers. This will feature lots of reprints, but a fair amount of new cards as well. So, lets check them out!

For the first time...

For the first time, this set will feature EXs that are not legendary since they started reprinting EXs. But these are slightly different than the old EXs. Some of these Pokemon that are the new EXs are stage one and twos such as Excadrill and chandelure ... BUT ARE BASIC EXs!

 

But... How... GAAA! I just don't see how a stage one or two can be...BASIC!?!?!? This makes absolutely no sense. It defies all Pokemon logic that Pokemon trainers have ever known! I have the photos of the cards and you can see for yourself if this is making no sense to you. I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't. I still don't get it.



As strange as the cards are, when you get past the fact they're A BASIC, it's kind of cool. I like a lot of Pokemon's final evolution, but not their other stages so much, so I think it's nice to just put down their other evolved form and start dealing lots of damage, and I hope they do this with other cards.

This set will also be including a new kind of holo foil called the radiant collection. These 25 cards will also have their own numbering and rarity scheme. Personally, I like this idea., mainly because I just don't like the foil cards right now. They have the Pokemons type symbol all over it, and I'm just not a fan. You can see one of those cards below that is supposed to have the new foil coating.

New cards

There are several new cards that have been announced and shown in English. 

The first is Ninetales, which you can see below. This, with its color coordination attack, would do great in any deck that had prism or blend energies. I think this is O.K. For a stage one I would expect something a bit for hard hitting and higher HP, but I suppose it will do. You can see it below:

Another new card is Pikachu. This is actually a reprint of a previous Pikachu, but it is one of the cards with the new type of foil, listed above. There isn't much to say about this card, since it's only printed for people to collect and look at since it doesn't have any good attacks, but it does have a new type of foil and a nice picture.look pretty epic. You can see it below (trust me, you'll agree it looks amazing):

Another card that will be brought back in Legendary treasurers is Spirtitomb. This cards stops the use of Ace Specs for both players, which i don't find that great since players can only play one ace spec in their deck, and  you might also need to use one too. But the attack is a slight upside. It allows you to, for one colorless energy, to shuffle your hand into your deck and draw the same number of cards as your opponent, which is O.K., but not that great.  At least this can be played in any deck. You can see it below:

And last but not least is Meloetta EX. I think this card looks amazing, but is the worst EX 

 in existence. It does 30 damage for three energy, plus 30 more for each Pokemon that has round, which isn't very good at all since it isn't easy to get the same Pokemon on your bench many times. The other attack does 20 damage for 2 colorless and also puts them to sleep or confused, which is neat since it puts your opponent to sleep or confuses and all, but it does barley any damage and probably won't give you the K.O. you need to when the game. On top of all that, it has a mere 110 Hp, which is extremely low for an EX. In short, I will not be adding this card to my deck.

Well, those are the new cards! We will see several reprints as well, such as Keldeo Ex, Mewtwo Ex, and Darkrai Ex. I can't wait!
