Cards (Pokemon, etc.) you'd like to see in the TCG

[Stratelier]

A.k.a. if you could create any card for the TCG, what would it be? Let's have some fun dreaming.

Mine:

Pokemon: Zoroark-EX (Basic / Dark / 160HP)

[insert awesome image here]

Ability: Illusive Opponent
If this card is in your hand and your Active Pokemon was damaged by an opponent's attack last turn, you may return that Pokemon to your hand and put Zoroark-EX in its place. If you do, transfer all damage counters, any Special Conditions, all Energy, and up to one Pokemon Tool card that was attached to that Pokemon to Zoroark-EX. (You can't use this Ability if your Active Pokemon is a Pokemon-EX.)

Attack: Night Daze (3 colorless Energy / 60 damage)
During your opponent's next turn, any damage done by the Defending Pokémon is reduced by 20 (before applying Weaknesses and Resistances).

A TCG version of Zoroark's trademark in-game ability, Illusion. Because without it, the fox is basically just another high speed/attack-oriented Dark-type. So this card allows you to declare that the Active Pokemon was just an illusion by Zoroark all along Zoroark's one attack doesn't require any specific Energy, because it inherits whatever Energy was attached to the Pokemon it replaced. It still does require 3 Energy, though (in case Zoroark enters play directly).

Oh I have no idea about the actual gameplay, I just collect the cards.
I would like to see a Primal Dialga card from Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, but maybe it could happen in the future for... reasons :3

For you, PinkiePieFox:

Pokemon: Primal Dialga-EX (Basic/Dragon/170 HP)

Ability: Intimidator
Whenever this card is attacked by your opponent, your opponent flips a coin. If tails, the attack does nothing.

Attack: Dragon Claw (1 Steel, 1 Fire/60 damage)

Attack: Roar of Time (1 Steel, 1 Fire, 1 colorless/120 damage)
This Pokemon cannot attack during your next turn.

Weakness Fighting/Resistance None/Retreat Cost 3

More Colorless cards for Flying-types. They've done very few of them over the years unless the Pokemon was a second type that fell under the Colorless umbrella. Except, randomly, Aerodactyl who gets a token Colorless card every now and again. In general there are certain Pokemon that get shoved into one type as their norm and never (or rarely) get their secondary types featured. I want stuff like Fighting Corsola, Psychic Froslass and Water Sneasel.

More Gym Leader Supporters. I hate how they've picked 2-3 Gym Leaders from each Region since Sinnoh and didn't do more when all of the Kanto and Johto Leaders got Trainers back in the day. Plus I really hate when the TCG just sort of makes up TSS that have nothing to do with the source material when they could have subbed in items, locations, etc from the video games. Speaking of important game characters, the Elite Four needs more play too.

More variety in the Pokemon chosen. We've gotten four different Lapras since Next Destinies but we haven't seen Krabby and Kingler since 2008. Certain Unova Pokemon have gotten 5+ prints already while there are Hoenn and Sinnoh Pokemon with 2-3 cards, etc.

I would love a reprint of Machamp from Diamond & Pearl—Stormfront 20/106 It would be nice to have a counter for EXs in the same way it counted SPs. It would be better than Pyroar at the least.

Supporter: Ramos
Effect: Search your deck for an energy card, show it to your opponent, and put it into your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward.

That's actually extremely underpowered for a Supporter. I think you could get away with more energy at a time with its effect.

Maybe. I was just concerned about making it TOO powerful, what with the population of special energies now. The concept remains the same, though.

Yes, most Supporter/Item cards that allow you to search Energy specifically require Basic Energy.
