About this deal

Yes, he may have been missing from Lost Origin (but there is hope for the Wailord from that set being in Crown Zenith… just saying) but here he is, front and centre in Silver temp… what, he’s an Uncommon? That’s not to say that this set isn’t crammed with potential, because it is, it’s just that there’s no specific counter for what is now the new Mew VMAX/Genesect V/Meloetta deck. In short, it’s a great way to get a look at the new set and play the new cards without getting too bogged down in the meta-game and getting flensed by seasoned players and their ultra-competitive deck. We want you to be absolutely satisfied with your purchase from The Games Den and therefore we have very stringent quality controls in place to ensure that items are sent to you in perfect condition.

This is because the Build and Battle Stadium allows you to experience all the fun and excitement of a pre-release event in the comfort of your own home! The four Silver Tempest promos available are: Rapidash (see above), Archeops (see above), Kirlia (see above) and Sunflora. For a fire, a grass and a colourless, the attack copies the attack of any Dragon-type card in your discard pile. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. In my Prize boosters, I managed to pull another Crobat and also a full art Reshiram V – not too shabby at all!This article is part of Project TCG, a Bulbapedia project that aims to report on every aspect of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. If Ol’ Blue Eyes was a Poke-fan, I am sure this is exactly what he would be singing, because Silver Tempest is here. For more than 20 years, the Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) has remained extremely popular among players and collectors of all ages. Sunflora is the weakest of the four, but does have a pretty decent attack for a pre-release – two of any energy does 70 damage for every energy card you discard up to three energy – not bad for a stage one uncommon, but no WAILORD. In ST, we see all of them together and they have a chain attack (Remember the Hitmon-chain from Sun and Moon?

In my pre-release deck I sadly got the Sunflora, but I did manage to pull the Mawile V trainer gallery card (a very nice-looking card and did well for me in my games) and a holo Crobat (which I couldn’t play but does have a very cheeky attack – 30 damage, but if you KO one of your opponents pokemon with this, take two extra prize cards.While Aerodactyl VSTAR harnesses this distorted power, Magnezone, Drapion, Hisuian Goodra, and Hisuian Zoroark also appear as Pokémon VSTAR to show off their own astonishing skills, joined by Kyurem VMAX.

Now there are some other lovely cards in this set which will make things a bit more interesting for certain type decks, namely fire, psychic and water decks (the last one is just hilarious) and a card that will soon become a staple. You do get a lot of your money though – no guaranteed Vs like the starter decks, but 12 boosters is nothing to be sneezed at – and considering this is only just more expensive than the elite Trainer Box, which only has 8 booster packs, sleeves, dice and bits – yeah, I’d do this any day of the week, player. As the boundary between dimensions tears apart, Giratina VSTAR plunges the world into the abyssal shadow of the Lost Zone! Each one holds four booster packs and a 23-card Evolution pack, which includes an exclusive foil card.There are then a series of games where players can either play their 40 card decks unadulterated or, depending on what they pull from their four boosters, upgraded with some of the cards they drew. There are no pulls guaranteed in any of the boosters, but as seen above, the odds are definitely in your favour and you also get a couple of Promos, which will definitely be a big selling point to the collector. Now not all of you will have easy access to a FLGS, which is sad, but not an insurmountable problem. So Lugia VSTAR can set up the Archeops to charge up the Lugia’s attack – 220 damage, plus discard the stadium if you want.
