Pokemon TCG: New Season-ish thing

Sorry for this sorry excuse for an update, but starting this week at any League, it is the beginning of the new Season. This one features Cyrus, the leader of Team Galactic. If you play six games while at your league, you will receive two cards, Dialga G and Arcanine G. The cards are shown below.

POP 9

The POP 9 card set was given out for prizes for Pokemon leagues in March 2009 through September 2009 but they can still be found at some leagues and in some blister packs and other card boxes and tins. This set is fun because all the cards work together, for example one of the buizel card's attack is Super Fast which says
If you have Pachirisu in play, flip a coin. If heads, prevent all effects of an attack, including damage, done to Buizel during your opponent's next turn.
See If you have Pachirisu in play so then one of the Pachirisu card's card attacks is Poison Berry-
If you have Croagunk in play, this attack does 20 damage plus 20 more damage and the Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned.
Most of the cards work together like this except a few which are Regigigas, Manaphy, Garchomp, Gabite, And Gible. Its a fun premise and very creative.
Here is a list of all the cards from POP 9.

Next Pokemon TCG Set

The next set that is going to be available in America is called LEGEND: Heartgold and Soulsilver. This new set has a few new features added.
First off is the new cards called Legend Cards, as shown in this article. They are massive cards that use two cards to make one Pokemon. Because of their unique nature you cannot play them during set up and most likely you will only be able to have four halves (or two whole cards) in your deck at any given time.
Next are the Great Pokemon cards. These cards are said to "specialize in battling". As of now they have no special conditions attached to them., just evolve them as you would any other card.
We've now got a new type of card called "Good" cards. This is the Japanese name for items. Not much difference there, but its made to clear up any confusion about any actual "Trainer" cards and Trainer cards.
I'm actually excited for this new set with the Legend Cards. It seems to me that those will add a completely new element to the game. Let's hope that it will be a much more fun set than those in previous times. Casey is a really freaky looking guy

The New Face of Pokemon

Pokemon is just absolutely amazing. Ever since I was little I have loved the Pokemon Games. I started out with Pokemon Red, and fell in love with the series. Today I play the games nearly every day, mainly Pokemon Diamond, Pokemon Pearl and Pokemon Platinum.

I am also very excited for the release of the new Pokemon Games, Pokemon HeartGold and Pokemon SoulSilver, coming out for the Nintendo DS. These are the remakes of Pokemon Silver and Gold, and so far, seem that they will be as good as the originals.

I recently have been playing the Pokemon Card game and have started to understand it more. It seems that the card game has grown even more popular in the last few years than it has in times past.

One thing I want to do with this site is to add a Pokedex entry of a Pokemon at least twice a week. I want to show the good and the bad about each Pokemon and explain where and how to catch them. If they evolve, I would also explain how to get them to the next stage.

This is why I am here and ready to give you information about nearly all things Pokemon. I hope you take the chance to read and enjoy these posts.
