Seeing anything "to fall asleep to" makes me excited BUT ESPECIALLY Pokemon makes me extra happy
I pretty much exclusively play Smogon singles but I stumbled across some of your vids a few days ago and wanted to say you do a great job of explaining what defines a cards power level. Makes it so even people who are completely clueless about the tcg meta like myself can easily watch and learn some really interesting history.
Pokemon tcg is really a great card game. Not so easy as people think.
Pre-frickin-cisely, I’m more of a VGC double guy, but never really got into the TCG but it seems really interesting!
Damn, my deck in middle school would NEVER be allowed today
it must've been so dope to play this in middle school, omg
What was it using lol
jeansect is crazy
It is crazy. Because it actually makes mores sense to pronounce it that way.
@@GynxShinxA big part of pronouncing Pokémon names correctly is understanding what real words went into making it. Genesis (or, depending on who you talk to, _genocide_ ) insect makes "Genesect", so it'd be pronounced with a soft vowel sound.
Don't forget about the japanese name
38:18 "The Final banned card we'll be talking about today..."
39:04 "So anyways, the next banned card is!"
Sorry this splice made me, lol.
I have so much Yugioh brainrot I heard "Maxie's" as "Maxx C" and got jumpscared.
Just a walking buzzword
11:15 “Maxie’s hidden ball trick”
Hmm…Maxie…kinda sounds like “Maxx C” (Yugioh Vietnam flashbacks)
4:46 "Verizon and Jeansect"
I have a morbid curiosity about Lysandre's Trump Card honestly. Just on the level that it was allowed as an unrestricted card that could be grabbed by Vs Seeker. I know this was at a time before they brought back the concept of the Lost Zone, but I feel like if they made a version that was a one per deck like Ace Spec or Prism Star that goes to the Lost Zone after being played, or something similar to a GX or V-Star once per game attack or ability, I think it COULD be a semi-balanced thing (obviously strong but not reusable and therefore game breaking.
Part of the reason that it got banned was because one of the popular decks at the time in expanded was Night March, a deck based around a buncha little pokemon who did damage based off how many Night March pokemon were in the discard pile. Lysandre's trump card completely hard countered one of the best decks to play at the time, and hard hit several others due to mentioned interactions inside the video.
You know ar face value that card doesn t seems so broken. On the other hand effects like these are used only when broken.
Your version is more fair for sure but i don t think it wuold be fair enough.
The Unown 35-card-hand-win is the reason I always have at least one "Judge" card in my deck.
Saved me very often. Even saved me from Cynthia often.
I love that card so much. Too bad I never got to use it to its full potential
Judge was the bane of my Noctowl/Kanghaskhan EX deck's existence.
THIS IS IT. THIS IS THE VIDEO I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR MY WHOLE LIFE.
you have no idea how much productivity this video will give me.
Really? That's it?!
@@Tychonious after 2 weeks of using this video regularly I can absolutely confirm
I was playing Pokémon at the time Lysandre's Trump Card was banned in Standard. I remember ① being astonished that Expanded hadn't had any bans before ② it and Vs. Seeker being key pieces of what made my Night March deck work in Standard.
The Vileplume combo went amazing in the deck I used to play back then. Machamp EX. I ran ariados, whose ability would poison both actives, including my Machamp, who could then use Crazy Hammer for 160 damage and healing his own poison before taking any damage from it. Vileplume helped protect Machamp immensely.
1:28 That sableye art is so nice
After using UA-cam videos to go to sleep the past few days I know what I'm listening to this time.
I started playing the pokemon TCG two weeks ago, as yugioh finally just broke me. I've really, really been enjoying it but I still have such yugioh brain that all I keep hearing for the Maxi's Hidden Ball Trick is MAXX C
Appreciate Yugioh because now we can read all these Pokemon Cards to understand AND remember all in one go. LOL
Yeah I tried YuGiOh, but couldn't get into it. I'd like to have a deck but damn, it's a rough game with its tiny writing, awkward grammar, lack of intuitive learning, specific archetypes, etc.
I just want a game to play. Like... just to actually play the game. YuGiOh can be quite frustrating in it's relentlessness. Not to mention the cost...
I played Pokemon TCG a lot from 2016 to 2020 and still enjoy it, but having bad pulls and my decks become obsolete by Tag Team and Max V strike and all that took the wind out of my sails.
From 2018 to now I have fell in love with Magic The Gathering. That company originally made the Pokemon TCG so the systems are pretty similar, though they branched differently in the last decade.
If you enjoy a fast game, Pokemon is the right choice. If you want strategy variety, Magic is good.
Magic Modern and Pioneer are both like 5 to 20 minute matches with similar strategies to Pokemon except more interaction, where you can play certain cards on other player's turns. Then you have Commander is anywhere from 20 minutes to 5 hours. It's chaotic and you can have as many players as you like. You can have two-headed giant where people team up. You can have planechase (where essentially you have random pokemon stadiums added to the game that make life ridiculous). You can draft or cube to build a deck on the spot and play right there and then. Etc.
Honestly, if you like playing for the fun of the game rather than winning, most card games are better than YuGiOh. I have no qualms with anyone who can only have fun when they win, but I know too many people who thought card games weren't for them because they played the wrong one for them.
@@koolaidman5661 honestly I have a hard time reading these cards, when the card art is under the text, its annoying
At least with ygo cards, I can actually read the card. Probably less of an issue with sims, idk.
Given the theme of many of these bans is "pull most of your deck to get the exact card you need"
It is surprising that pidgeotEX made it to print. Why pull your whole deck, when you can just pull that card directly?
At 280hp, there's not much that can take down pidgeotEX in one turn, at zero retreat, it is hard to draw it out and knock it out before the opponents attacker slams you hard.
Path to the peak? Sorry, it's attack discards the stadium in play, and it retreats before you've gotten through that 280hp
Just about the only downsides are that it is stage 2, it's attack is weak damage wise at 120, and it gives 2 prizes *if* knocked out
I've seen most people run it with rare candies to skip stage 1, which does give a counter with devolution, but then you have to run devolution and hope they didn't use one of their last quick searches to grab a back up rare candy
It's strong in most sets
So do tcg players just not know how to pronounce pokemon names or what is going on here
“Jeansect” made me want to throw up
Could also be the common joke of purposefully mispronouncing.
Like ark-a-neen-nay for arcanine.
... though technically pokemon isn't even consistent in all pronunciations. Like I believe both Arceus and Rayquaza have multiple official pronunications across the anime/movies/announcements, probably other examples I dont know.
So one could argue that there isnt a correct pronunciation.
@@dantheminigolfwizard860reeee
The dude isn’t a dedicated Tcg player ; he has several channels doing contents like this about different games , Yugioh- Duellogs , WoW-forgot the channel name , and magic also forgot the channel name
pretty sure it's for interaction. I fucking hate it.
My god, how many channels do you have!? Love your stuff my man, glad to sneak up on another channel of yours
This dude is monopolizing TCG UA-cam lmao. I wonder which game is his main. Maybe Yu-Gi-Oh?
@@CloudCollapse he does good wow videos too. He's a madman. Has to have a team that helps or he's just godlike.
i am so very happy to have this, keep up the good work!
I remember abusing forest of giant plants for my beutifly deck. I miss that deck.
VS seeker is an item card that lets you put a supporter card from your discard pile to your hand. Pretty much making it another copy of an supporter card
I started actively collecting from x and y base set, the team flare card threw me right off I've never heard of them! And here I was thinking I was an expert
I woke up and this was on autoplay. The only form of competitive Pokemon I have any real experience in is VGC. Leaving it on cuz it's still interesting
That's a lot of cards
Inbetween 2014 all the way through 2018 and even a bit after, with the inclusion of Marshadow GX. NIGHT MARCH SHOULD OF BEEN OUT RIGHT BANNED.
It was so annoying watching players mill farm and discard cards over and over just so they can 1 to 2 turn drop up to 220 damage.
And the only popular counter for Night March. Was ironically a card called Karen.
Watching this to help me work, great for that, but I'm wondering where they got that cool background for the thumbnail
Thank you UA-cam for the 4am recommended video for me who never played pokémon tcg
11:18 I don't play TCG but I already knew that card from the hardenshipping memes lol
I like watching duellogs videos on games I've never played so I don't get irritated at all the things he gets wrong
I've been Poke-pumped for this video baby
Tfw smeargle is still screwing around with Darkrai even in the TCG
I feel like an unusually high number banned cards after watching this video.
The fact that I actually fell asleep is crazy. Enjoy the boost in watch time 😄
Never played tcg in my life but subbed
Me sitting here for a hot second wondering how they gave Gengar & Mimikyu GX an attack called Whorehouse
I was about to flame for the pronunciation of Genesect, but the more I thought about it, the more yours actually makes more sense.
(For context I pronounce it Jen-eh-sekt as I've heard most other people do as awell)
Wow it work, thank you.
I don't understand why they kept printing cards that prevented your opponent from playing items or evolving. Time and time again it proved to be too good but they figured they'd try again anyways
Out of curiosity: Was there a card in the Pokemon TCG that made any card going to the discard pile go to the Lost Zone instead? I played PokemonTCG when I was in grade school but never again when I went to HS. I f I were to use another card as a reference, think "Macro Cosmos" from YGO.
The reason I asked is if there is, using that in unison with Lysandre's Trump Card would be insane (assuming you have more cards in the discard pile than your opponent's).
There are two cards which come close to doing that which I'm aware of: Gengar Prime and Lost City. for the sake of balance though they only did this to Pokemon and not every discarded card.
I would let Jessie discard my hand if you know what I mean
I would be weirded out, but I absolutely agree with you
👁️👃👁️
I miss the shaymin ex days.
WAHOOOO
I started playing again during the ADPZ era and it was probably one of the worse times to start playing the game
I can’t imagine playing scummy tactics in TGC like… in person… imagine having to say “yeah so I’m drawing every card in existence… and you can’t play at all… just so you know…” and you can feel their stare and you are within arm’s reach of them. Like you can’t log off or anything y’all just gotta sit there unfolding some absolute BS in the game ur playing.
I never knew you had this channel... glad to now my favorite home play decks are banned lmfao
I'm subscribed to your yugioh UA-cam channel and I like Pokémon cards to but I never played agent other people.
Don't ever say Latios the way you said it ever again
How do you say Lusamine 3 different ways within 5 minutes and none of them were correct?!
Idk if you mention this in the video but the first time a ban happened was in 2000 and only 4 cards were banned. 2 were banned because they were broken (sneasel and slowking) the other two were banned for censorship (Koga's trick was banned because of a swastika and Misty's tears was banned because, well, titties) this was Wizards of the Coast era.
There was NOT A SINGLE BAN for over a decade.
I believe the Trump card ban happened in either 2014 or 2015 and it was because it LITERALLY broke the game and completely eliminated an entire win condition.
Once Trump card was banned the flood gates opened and they started banning more things after 15 years of no banned cards.
Closest we got was Stormfront Sableye with Overeager. That caused an early rotation of sets though because they wanted to avoid all bans but it was too broken.
It let you go first no matter what, gave a free support effect, and if your Opponent only had one weak mon to start you simply won the game turn one.
It's an interesting history
There were two more cards that were banned/considered illegal in the WotC days:_____'s Pikachu due to the Birthday Surprise Attack requiring proof of someone's birthday(which could be falsified to get the 30+50 damage bonus on the move for just 2 Energy, which was utterly insane at the time) and Ancient Mew, because of the runic text and for having a different Card Back meaning it could be viewed as a Marked card.
Ah yes, Verizon and Geensect
Also, the shiftry comment was false. It was banned because it was legal for ONE regional tournament, had over 50% usage rate and an above 80% win rate, nearly 90% win rate if you went first.
TPCi couldn't ignore Shiftry after that one regional, it was a horrific mess, I was there and everyone treated the event as a joke, because it honestly was.
4:40 verdiant wind not ward
I can’t fucking sleep i’m desperate
So when card get ban do they go to cards UBERS?
Imagine these types of effects in yugioh lol
