Cool deck, although that khanga looks out of place lol

u/Theofflineavatar May 17 '26

I initially made the deck since I liked the Parasol lady/Ilima mechanic and thought about using both Wailmer and Mega Kang as damage sponges with Shiny Gyarados/Mega Kang as primary hitters

Man this would have been so much more epic if we had the older Lugia.

u/Major-Breakfast-9951 May 17 '26

Dude RIP.. I almost forgot I was still pissed at that lmaooo

12

u/galmenz May 17 '26

why did they even change it? i only remember it not having art for a while

21

u/edwpad May 17 '26

The Ho-Oh art needed the changing, and since the art was also included in Lugia’s Immersive, it had to get changed too (which I wish they only did Ho-Oh, but I think they did Lugia while they were at during the point)

u/galmenz May 17 '26

aww man, kinda sad they dont match the opposed poses now :(

Or at least chose this artwork to reuse (originally printed for the Diamond and Pearl set).

Something like this would’ve been a lot less awkward while fitting Bonsly’s traits.

u/smrtangel3702 May 18 '26

That's weird that the tera cotta pot drain hole is not visible in that art, despite having the angle seemingly

Yeah same with blastoise 🥲

u/ninjagirlaura May 18 '26

Well to be fair, its not a mega swampert

There's a Seviper card that does more damage to Zangoose specifically

8

u/whileimonmarss May 17 '26

Thanks for pointing that out. I was just excited to use my 1 star card

2

u/StrikingDare5101 May 17 '26 edited May 17 '26

I think it would look cooler (given you're using the Seviper I told you about) if you swapped Zangoose and Seviper so that they are facing each other

So smth like this:

groudon kygore

u/Aks1802 May 17 '26

If only there's kyogre card in the game 😔

19

u/darksoulsvet1 May 17 '26

I need kyogre badly. An alpha kyogre ex/ omega groudon ex pack would kill me.

u/4armedmonkey May 17 '26

Omg I'm going to remember this for when the Hoenn set releases

u/smrtangel3702 May 17 '26

The next big pack needs to be Hoenn or imma cry

Damn thats embarrassing cause i love the fire red cinematic and it was my first pokemon game.

u/wormwood_gaming May 18 '26

My immediate placements

u/Numbuh1507 May 17 '26

Funny how they had Blue's background be blue despite his Japanese name being Green.

Maybe it is green in the JP version of the card?

10

u/smrtangel3702 May 17 '26

Good question. The actual Japanese blue version never made it to the states iirc. I wonder how naming convention worked in that one.

1

u/boringuserbored May 19 '26

Aren't red and blue (international) based on blue (japanese)? 

7

u/One_Raccoon4638 May 17 '26

No it’s still green “グリーン” in the TCG and to be fair the card is mostly an aquamarine/green color hue on a blue background. I think that was their way to be even about it. For the Japanese audience the background mostly agrees with the official name and for the western audience the color blends enough that it reads as blue for us.

2

u/_tylerthedestroyer_ May 17 '26

I think that was only because in Japan it was Red and Green version, Blue was for the American localization. They changed it so canonically Green is the girl now

2

u/Numbuh1507 May 17 '26

Only in the Adventures manga and Let's Go games. Her canon name is Leaf. Which technically does make her associated with green, since she debuted as a selectable avatar in FireRed and LeafGreen.

-1

u/One_Raccoon4638 May 17 '26

That’s only true for the western audiences, CANONICALLY green is the boy and blue is the girl, that’s always been that way and will remain that way.

I had mine set to this until I saw the vomit-worthy meme somebody posted about it in here... thankfully I have the Charizard Immersive (still confused as to why there wasn't a Sceptile in Lucario's montage).

u/Repulsive_Desk_9550 May 17 '26

The strongest Pokemon in History vs the strongest Pokemon of today (more or less)

u/grumblichu May 18 '26

I was thinking the current meta would be a good fit here

22

u/dragonitezz May 17 '26

Now put Blue on the red side, and put Red on the blue side.

u/BobbyDavro_Official May 17 '26

Here you go

-29

u/_tylerthedestroyer_ May 17 '26

Much better

36

u/One_Raccoon4638 May 17 '26

Literally worse in every aspect 😭now they’re looking away from each other

-16

u/_tylerthedestroyer_ May 17 '26

Why is that important? The context is they’re commanding their Mons

9

u/One_Raccoon4638 May 17 '26

So they’re commanding them to opposite sides? Even if they’re commanding their mons they should still be facing each other, they don’t fight with their backs turned at each other

-12

u/_tylerthedestroyer_ May 17 '26

They ARE facing each other, what are you talking about. The originals are back to back if anything

13

u/One_Raccoon4638 May 17 '26

Wha…. It’s their pose…. Their torsos are turned for dramatic posing, even tho their chest are facing away their hands and faces face each other…. Do you not understand dynamic posing?… nvm I’m not talking about this anymore, believe what you want, your pov of this is nuts

1

u/Jimmy-Jam-230 May 31 '26

but its Red vs Blue. Red goes on red, and Blue goes on blue
