Be Fearless with New Cards in Pokémon TCG: HS—Undaunted!
July 23, 2010 in TCG
A new Pokémon LEGEND pair joins Umbreon Prime in the new Pokémon TCG expansion!
Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND
Two of the most powerful Pokémon around combine forces as the new Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND (89/90 and 90/90) in the brand-new HS—Undaunted expansion!
Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND's Space Virus Poké-Body will double the fear factor for your opponent—when you Knock Out the Defending Pokémon with Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND, you get to take an additional Prize cards as a result of your victory!
The basic elements of Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND are also a little unusual: it's a Colorless and Psychic dual-type Pokémon, yet its primary attack requires 2 Fire Energy, 1 Lightning Energy, and 1 Colorless Energy to use.
However, "unusual" doesn't mean "bad," and that Ozone Buster attack certainly shows why you'll want Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND on your side—it does a devastating 150 damage, more than enough to Knock Out virtually every Pokémon unlucky enough to be in its way! The drawback is that you have to discard all the Fire Energy attached to Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND. Still, that's a small price to pay when you're drawing a bonus Prize card!
Unfortunately, this cuts both ways: when Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND is Knocked Out, your opponent draws 2 Prize cards. Fortunately, this Pokémon LEGEND has 140 HP to sustain itself, meaning it'll be tough work to Knock Out this outstanding duo!
Umbreon Prime
The Pokémon TCG: HS—Undaunted expansion is packed with all kinds of Eevee Evolutions, one of which, Espeon Prime (81/90), we outlined earlier. With Umbreon Prime (86/90), you can make the most of all those Evolutions with one powerful attack. Umbreon Prime's Evoblast attack does 50 damage plus an extra 10 damage for every Pokémon in play that evolves from Eevee! Since you can have four Eevee in your deck, that means you could potentially strike for 90 damage per turn! And if the pressure gets to be too much for Umbreon Prime, you can always pull it to safety with its Cloud-Covered Moon Poké-Power. Cloud-Covered Moon lets you flip a coin (as long as Umbreon Prime is the Active Pokémon) to return Umbreon Prime and all of the cards attached to it to your hand. Dish out incredible damage and avoid getting Knocked Out with this Pokémon that's truly in its prime!
