Energies to Energize



After doing some browsing on the Japanese Pokémon Card Website I found the eight Basic Energy Cards that will make its appearance in Pokémon Diamond & Pearl Premier Set.

The layout looks like the traditional Energy Cards with a slight twist by adding the oval-like 3D effect on the background. Its also fun to see the Darkness and Metal Energy as Basics now.

Pokémon: A Factor of World Friendship

In the release of the 4th Generation of Pokémon in Diamond & Pearl, one great feature caught the eyes of many, the wifi connection feature.

With this breath taking technological advancement players all around the world gained access to each other in order to trade and battle, along with making friends by the way.

As an added feature, trainers can do live chat while trading and battling other trainers. Wow! Have a cousin in USA? No problem, just use the battle or trade feature using Wifi and have a "Hello, How are you there?" while on play. It eliminates the the boundaries to make players keep in touched.

I had a chat with my friend lately. He owns a Pokémon Diamond Version on his DS Lite. He told me that Japanese Trainers are really awesome. I asked why. "Two Japanese Trainers are willing to trade their Spiritomb to me," he said. Thinking that Spiritomb is a tricky Pokémon to catch, it is really awesome. He did the trade with one of them for a Male Kirlia. Not bad for a Spiritomb, I said. "We had a chat while trading and now we frequently do battles." he added. That's earning a new friend from play.
To start making wifi battles you must have the following:
  1. A Nintendo DS or DS Lite
  2. A Pokémon Diamond or Pearl Game Pak
  3. A Wifi USB Connector plug into a Broadband Internet enabled PC or find a wifi Hotspot
The connection is to simple. For more details check your DS or DS Lite Manual.

Getting Ready for Pokémon TCG Diamond & Pearl

Again I've created unique layouts for the Pokémon Diamond & Pearl TCG. While the Set isn't out yet in the Philippines I snagged some infos about the cardlist and created 2 experimental prototype decks from the gathered bits of info, namely Plant Parade and Psychic Tactic.

Plant Parade is based on the card Torterra, one of the starter on the NDS game. Honestly, its like love at first sight... literally! Torterra caught my attention in an instant (view my previous posts to know why). I added up the whole Roserade evolution line for my secondary attacker plus Vespiquen evolution line for healing. The Trainer Engine I used is the classical "Direct Draw Engine". The so-called "Holon Engine" won't function that much to DP expansion due to lack of Delta Species Pokémon they depend on, I guess... But I added up Holon Mentor. Its an excellent card. I also added a new Supporter Card, Professor Rowan. Its like a modified version of today's Professor Oak's Research. It saves one single card from your hand, set that card aside, shuffle the rest to the deck, then draw 4 more cards. Nice! Same Energy Line as before, no special energies.

On the other hand, Psychic Tactic is based on my favorite Pokémon, Gengar. This deck is centered on ghost type Pokémon plus the Wobbuffet evolution line. Same Trainer Engine as Plant Parade with a slight change to fit the needs of Psychic Pokémon. Same goes with the energies.

Hopefully I'll be exerting much effort to make this deck perfect and be able to play it on the nearest possible tournament (after Prerelease, I guess). I can't afford to go to a Official Leagues... Batangas is way to far on the league venues on the Metro... Well, that's for now...
The Shadow Trainer is Back in its Tracks...

Pokémon D/P TCG


Honestly, when I saw the first DP Card Scans, Torterra Lv.45 caught my attention. Its Leaf Storm attack is really awesome, dealing 60 damage to the defending Pokémon while removing 2 damage counters from every Grass Pokémon you control, including itself. It can even out smarten the Arch type Flygon δ ex of EX Dragon Frontier... I'm really sure this card will be a great hit when Pokémon DP on TCG arrives on the Philippines soon.

Nintendo DS Lite on December




Oh Boy... I want a Nintendo DS lite badly... Its out of my budget but it really rocks! I guess its seven long months more before I'll have mine...

Pokémon DP Deck Making

Woah... taking to consideration both EX and DP expansions, Deck making is really complicated nowadays. Too many factors to consider, Pokémon, Trainers, Supporters, Stadiums, Energies and how all of them will function together... Oh Boy!

Connections, Setup!

Since our Internet Connection was established, I was finding ways on how to "reincarnate" my online life... I think I'm one step up the ladder with this blog.

I'm still waiting for my Sinnoh Adventure. Not yet sure if I going to be a TCG Player or a Nintendo DS Player or BOTH! But in some what way, I kind of liked the new Pokémon Diamond on NDS for its Worldwide Connections. But if I'll gonna pursue having a DS or DS lite, It will take me about December to get one... that's the sad part.
