![]() ![]() Imagine that you’re one prize away from winning only for your opponent to slap down a Slowbro, accelerate two energy cards onto it and take their final two prize cards. Slowbro is mostly on this list of the best Pokémon Go cards because of how hilarious its Twilight Inspiration attack is. Take two free prize cards for two energy A fan-favourite of the Pokémon series, Slowbro's latest appearance comes with a hilarious - and potentially infuriating - ability. Stack more Psychic energy on Lunatone with Fog Crystal, Energy Switch or Solrock and you’ve got a surprisingly formidable attacker for a Basic Pokémon. At a minimum, its Moon Kinesis attack deals 120 damage, putting many V and VSTAR Pokémon in two-attack KO range. Besides being more powerful than the average Pokémon, these cards tend to be worth multiple prizes, making them a bit riskier to play into the active spot.įor this reason, strong regular Pokémon have the potential to shake things up, which is exactly what Lunatone does. Today’s Pokémon TCG meta is dominated largely by Pokémon V, VMAX and VSTAR. As a bonus, Mad Party decks tend to be very budget-friendly as they rely primarily on common cards that aren’t particularly valuable.Ī surprisingly strong single-prize attacker Lunatone's Moon Kinesis attack punches far above its weight for a Basic Pokémon. Discard a bunch of Mad Party Pokémon with Ultra Ball or other discard engines, then move a Ditto to the active position for a surprise attack. In particular, it will stand out in the Mad Party meta, which is dependent on having several Pokémon cards with that attack in your discard pile. The limiting factor is that you can’t copy the attacks of Pokémon V, but that doesn’t mean Ditto isn’t without its utility.Ĭheck out some of the rarest Pokémon cards of all time Watch on YouTube In a fun bit of design, Ditto is able to use the attacks of any Basic Pokémon in your discard pile. Why be the best when you can copy the best? True to its appearance in the Pokémon video games, the Ditto card can copy any Basic Pokémon card in your discard pile. It’s certainly plausible that we’ll see new Standard lists running Egg Incubator in place of Quick Ball at upcoming Pokémon TCG tournaments. ![]() As a bonus, if you fail the coin toss, Egg Incubator goes back into your deck rather than your discard pile, making it findable by Shady Dealings or other item search cards. It acts as a pseudo Quick Ball, but with a coin toss in place of the discard requirement. Unlike PokéStop and Lure Module, Egg Incubator has the potential to find its way into more competitive formats. Hatch a real winner Egg Incubator isn't just a cute nod to Pokémon Go - it also has a powerful effect. Granted, there are far better item search tools in the standard format at the moment (specifically the Inteleon engine), but PokéStop is still a fun card in casual play, especially if you’re a big fan of Pokémon Go. The difference, of course, is that PokéStop finds items instead of Pokémon. Like Lure Module, PokéStop largely makes this list of the best Pokémon Go cards because of how cleverly it channels its namesake. ![]() Spin the stop to find items A common sight in Pokémon Go, the PokéStop card cleverly brings its digital counterpart to the TCG. And you never know - you may just happen upon that game-clenching Arceus VSTAR! Looking at the Pokémon TCG meta, It’s unlikely that Lure Module has much practical usage, but it’s fun nonetheless. Of course, you’re at the mercy of the luck of the draw, but there’s no denying that Lure Module is a thematically clever card. In the Pokémon TCG, the Lure Module behaves similarly in that it has the potential to attract Pokémon to your hand. In Pokémon Go, Lure Modules attract wild Pokémon to PokéStops. Lure wild Pokémon to your hand The Lure Module card will be instantly familiar to anyone who's played Pokémon Go. They were chosen mostly for their usefulness in standard-format decks, but a few were picked based on their appearance and how well they channel the themes and mechanics of the Pokémon Go mobile game.
