Nice what artwork would be a nice combo, Groudon/Kyogre, Mew/Mewtwo, Dusk Mane Necrozma/Dark Wing Necrozma. ---

Now thats quite the interresting mechanic, three prize cards taken for one big pokemon. Any TCG-players got any interresting opinion to throw out about this new mechanic? Edit: Finally the Minun/Plusle duo and other similar popular duos can be done in a really sleek manner. (Maybe even Team Magma/Aqua tag teams can be done?) ---

Interesting…and I’m so glad these (or at least this particular one) isn’t illustrated by 5ban graphics, it’s getting really boring how 99% of the gx cards have been illustrated by them. ---

Yeah the art is a welcome change, the reveal trailer for the new mechanic starts by highlighting that the card has hand drawn art, I got excited watching this! I can’t wait to make some decks with these new cards too! 😁 [![](https://efour.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/4X/e/f/e/efecf026b6728eef598ce7076ebbf64dad2c68e4.jpeg "With TAG TEAM Pokémon-GX, the Pokémon TCG Will Never Be the Same!") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WELQLKEeQUo) ---

Looking forward to all the cool art work! Curious to see if TPCi will make these like secret rare or will they dump these into the playing field. ---

I hope we get more odd-couples like this, seeing a cute little Mouse paired with a Legendary Being is something else! I’d personally like to see a Gible ridding a Rayquaza into battle if I’m being totally honest… ---

> [@emba](#): > > Interesting…and I’m so glad these (or at least this particular one) isn’t illustrated by 5ban graphics, it’s getting really boring how 99% of the gx cards have been illustrated by them. Turns me off modern big time. Hopefully following sm era we see less of that 5ban shit. ---

> 3 prize cards for knocking it out ![](https://memegenerator.net/img/instances/71166728/yeah-thats-gonna-be-a-no-for-me-dog.jpg) Cool collector gimmick though, it’s like a budget CG version of the Legend cards. ---

3 prizes isn’t enough, this thing takes 4 easy. Plus it still takes 3 KOs for your opponent to take all prizes. This is insane power creep, just wait for the next ones. ---

Definitely interesting and quite the bump for power creep. ---

It still has fighting weakness & lostmarch is probably gonna be a thing+ you already have non-GX decks scoring big @worlds, so hopefully this one wont be to OP in the meta (already afraid for the other ones) ---

It’s definitely powerful but I don’t think it’s gonna break the Meta or anything by steamrolling everything else, it’s HP is still less than some stage 2 pokemon we already have, like Solgaleo and Lunala GX. It’s a basic which is a big advantage, but I still think my trusty Gardevoir could take it! 😁
