Re: Soapbox: The Pokémon European International Championships Made Me Fall In Love With TCG

In my opinion the game will be broken until the 2025 format when all the Pokemon-V variants will be gone.
A core mechanic of the TCG is evolution. A Charizard-ex, for example, evolves from Charmeleon. Charizard-V is a basic that can be played straight to the bench.
TPCI hasn't facilitated a true evolution-heavy format since ~2005, and I think the game is worse off when it is all big basics instead of leaning into one of the defining aspects of the game.

Re: Poll: So, Have You Finished Pokémon Legends: Arceus Yet?

With 100% defined as "Caught Arceus and all of the bonus save file legends like Manaphy snd Darkrai", I have 100% the game.
If 100% means "level 10 research tasks and all sidequests cleared", "Max inventory size", or even "ALL research tasks completed", then I have not.
