Pokemon TCG: All Crystal Pokemon Ranked

It featured prominently in the devastating Night March deck and rendered decks prioritizing cards like Yveltal/Darkrai and Mega Rayquaza completely defenseless. However, it does have a weakness in its low HP of 30, but its ability to deal exponential damage overpowers that limitation. Sadly, owing to its OP abilities, it has been banned from the standard formats of the game, but it is very much relevant in the expanded form


The Sword & Shield expansion has a Rillaboom card with such an Ability. This card's Voltage Beat lets their trainer pull two grass energy cards from their deck and attach them to any of their Pokemon. Getting more energies onto a team can mean that more powerful attacks are able to unleash quicker. This strategy works well with many others, acting as a quick way to fuel one's powerhouse ca


While some purists may gawk at the idea of slandering an original card's art by trying to paint over and around it, the results for those that are truly great speak for themselves. Each of the cards on this list is always painted with their original pokémon and backgrounds serving as the "canvas" so to speak. SumiPaints builds off of their original imagery, giving us the impression that they have peeled back the layer of stats and rules in order to reveal a larger picture that has always existed beneath the surface. This Vulpix is captured just outside of a forest in what appears to be a blossoming meadow. Possibly, Veridian Forest of Gen I fa


Those familiar with the Pokemon TCG may also be reading through with some déjà vu. That's simply because Shining Fates was actually directly inspired by the previous (incredibly popular) special expansions dubbed "Hidden Fates" and "Shining Legends." Each of these expansions were known for featuring Shiny Pokemon in special holographic-alternative cards. That is, the sets have a special "Shiny Vault" of cards that can be found as a Shiny Pokemon variant . Rather than featuring significantly different artwork though, these cards are treated as a form of "holo," and instead simply bear a unique backdrop and the Pokemon's Shiny vari


The Pokémon franchise has grown and evolved over the years, encompassing a number of different ventures including an anime series, popular games, a manga series, a line of movies, brilliant toys , and outstanding gifts that are perfect for the loving fan . However, the franchise that had its inception in 1995 has also created an immersive trading card game, known as PTCG or Pokemon Trading Card slg Game tutorial, which has taken the world by storm with even official tournaments being held on the s


Since most Electric-type pokémon require a strange combination of 2-electric and 1-colorless energy to mete out their attacks, having this stage one pokémon in the deck can prove to be extremely use


Most of the time, healing is only possible through item card usage, though some Grass-type Pokemon possess the power to regenerate HP. Certain moves grant them health upon specific criteria being met or as the effect of an attack. Ludicolo from the Rebel Clash expansion has a Mega Drain attack that does a substantial 120 damage and also heals them for 30


There have been many Venusaur cards released since the TCG was created in the late '90s. They all vary quite a lot in appearance and strength, though they have a consistent pattern. Venusaurs typically have Abilities and multiple moves that heal themselves, manipulate energy in some way, deal huge damage, or apply special conditions to the


Draining Cut can be handy if one is lacking HP and wants to do a bit of damage at the same time. However, Triple Cutter is the main reason to use this card. With the potential to deal 90 damage, it is one of the better Crystal Pokemon atta


Furthermore, this attack also deals a damage of 70 to the opponent. It also has a useful primary in Swift, which for the cost of 1-electric guarantees a damage of 30 on the opponent's Active Pokémon since it is unaffected by any resistance or weakn


Although the damage counter dealt by this attack is little, landing only 30 damage to the opponent, it allows the player to attach one dark energy to any of his/her benched pokemon from the discard pile. The cost is also minimal at just one dark energy. It also has a secondary attack known as Darkness Blade, but it restricts Yveltal from attacking in the following turn and therefore should be avoided as it ruins the setup the player had made in the previous t

Since most pokemon from the GX or EX series have a retreat cost of at least 2-3 energies, Mega Sharpedo EX can easily deal 20-30 damage to the opponent’s benched pokémon and weaken them enough to be finished using the card’s Torpedo Drive ability, when they come into active p


A few in the Sword & Shield expansion have this ability, like Celebi V . A few more Pokemon in the player's hand or Bench also gives them a bit of security in case the opponent has a trick up their sleeve. A great opening gambit, regardless of deck strat
