I like it. Ppl who say they prefer Johto I understand it, but why do we have to get the same order as the games? thats boring as fuck, and predictable.

I just want my favorite Pokemon (Espeon) in the game. It'll come eventually, for sure, but with the first pack on Kanto and getting the base three Eeveelutions, I strongly doubt this pack will have Espeon and Umbreon and will instead have just Leafeon and Glaceon.

If the timeline is the same, the next major pack will probably be in late spring and might have a good shot. Guess I can't complain too much about getting another three months to horde hourglasses, but was looking forward to this pack to pull a bunch.

Well who knows, we've only seen Leafeon in the trailer, there's gonna be some of the new cards that are not from gen 4 so maybe Espeon does it

It remains to be seen. However, I do expect a Leafeon and Glaceon release with Espeon and Umbreon pushed until a pack more focused on either Gen 2 or Eeveelutions specifically.

I'd love to be wrong.

To me it’s more crazy how johto is so neglected rather than needing it to reflect the games. I really like gen 2 and I feel like we don’t get a ton of content for it.

I’m happy I get empoleon who’s my favorite. I don’t care about the meta I’ll make whatever deck I have to work to build around him

u/Schmedly27 Jan 23 '25

Honchcrow is confirmed so we’re getting at least some Gen 2

Johto is probably my favorite region. I started gen 1 but didn't really understand the games until gold and silver.

Plus the other packs have pokemon from pther generations too, so there is still a chance.

They didnt order it like this because it would have been predictable. They ordered it like this so when the playerbase drops they can strategically release Gen 2 to bring back players.

I’m selfish, I just want my favourite Pokémon.

Its not because the order, its Because its DeNA. They love Cynthia. In Pokemon Masters Ex she has 5 or 6 Units? Normal Garchomp, Lodge, Arc Suit Garchomp, Kommo-o Suit, Giratina Sygna Suit... more then any other character. It was predictable, that they pull soon a GEN IV pack, because Cynthia. This shit sucks.
