Okay, so I just stumbled upon this wild trailer for the new Eevee Grove expansion in Pokemon TCG Pocket. Honestly, no clue why, but the excitement kind of grabbed me. It’s not out yet — a few days till everyone can dive in — but they dropped some hints on what’s coming. Hello, new cards! Oh, and did I mention Eevee’s got this Ex version? You can evolve it into any Eeveelution. Mind-blowing, right?
The trailer teased a bunch of cards, and like, some are regular rares, others are Ex cards. Who even knows which ones will make the cut? But hey, Eevee Grove’s packing over 100 cards, so there’s that. And there’s talk of some Eeveelution mash-up that seems OP. Maybe it’s just speculation, but I’m already buzzing.
Often — and I mean, like, all the time — these expansions throw in cards that become super important in strategy or just mess with everything we know. The thought of Supporter cards like Cyrus or Red just lurking around, making their way into everyone’s deck… it’s a thing. Now, the Penny Supporter card could be the next big deal, which is super thrilling. But there’s also Sylveon Ex, with its crazy strong ability, possibly stealing the spotlight.
Now, onto this Sylveon Ex deal. First off, it looks solid for a Stage 1 card. I mean, it has 140 HP and an attack worth 70 damage with just a Psychic Energy and a colorless. But its secret weapon is the Happy Ribbon ability. It lets you draw two cards when Sylveon Ex evolves another card, and honestly, card drawing is like gold in strategy. It’s like having Professor’s Research cheering you on.
Card drawing is huge, right? Professor’s Research, anyone? People are slotting it in, no questions asked. Draw two cards from your 20-card deck, and it’s like hitting the jackpot. And then there’s Pokemon TCG Pocket’s Shiinotic from Extradimensional Crisis — yup, dropping in like a hot trend with its card-fetching prowess. Stack Sylveon Ex with Professor’s Research, and bam! You’re gold.
So, Sylveon Ex is kind of like a dual-purpose machine — it battles and draws cards as if it’s a top-notch Supporter card. It’s also this fun pairing thing where it works with Psychic cards. Picture me, connecting it with cards like Gengar Ex or the eerie Gengar from Triumphant Light. Gengar Ex blocks Supporters, and Gengar’s Hypnoblast could nudge the opponent’s Pokemon into a sleepy state. It’s like buying time, mixing strategies, and making moves while Sylveon Ex is there pulling cards like a magician.
With the Eevee Ex allowing players to use up to four Eevee cards — what a twist — you can mix main types and have Sylveon Ex evolve two different Eevee cards, for real, two evolutions, two benefits. Shiinotic-style, it can fit anywhere. Use it just to draw cards and leave it on the bench if that’s your style. Looking forward, Sylveon Ex might just be the card to keep an eye on, with its “2-in-1” vibe. Who knows? It might just dominate the meta — but that’s what keeps us playing, right?
