Picking up the box gets you a number of fun goodies that fans can enjoy. Three cards are already displayed front and center: Charmander, Charmeleon and Charizard are shown to let you know exactly what is coming. Each one looks pretty useful with great HP for Charmander and average attacks on Charmeleon. Then the Charizard-GX card has a huge surge meant for taking down your opponents in a massive way as it has an enormous 250 HP, which makes it pretty much built like a tank. Three energies of any kind allows it to use Wing Attack and inflict 70 damage, that’s enough to take out almost all Pokémon in one to three hits! Then comes Crimson Storm which deals a whopping 300 damage! You have to discard three Fire-type energy from Charizard but it will end up becoming a deciding factor during any battle. The GX attack is sure to be helpful if you’re being strategic. Raging Out allows you to discard the top ten cards of your enemy’s deck. That makes it great to have up your sleeve if a match has been dragging along and can knock them out by reducing their deck to zero. Less cards means an advantage in your favor! Charizard-GX packs a lot into not only obliterating Pokémon but dismantling any rival’s morals all in a single crushing turn that they’ll have a hard time recovering from!
We were also lucky enough to checkout some plush toys that are usually only available in a very specific manner. Those who pre-order Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are given one of three plush key chains of the Alolan starters: Litten, Popplio and Rowlet, each of which is so adorable. They are made of soft fabric and very detailed with all markings and features present, and are very high quality, coming directly from the Pokémon Center. Plastic hooks in matching colors are attached listen to this podcast each one. Use them to clip onto various belongings such as purses, car keys, curtain rods or backpacks just to name a few. For those who plan on getting Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the pre-order bonus isn’t a bad deal at all, and hopefully you will be able to get the one you favor the most!
The new gimmick doesn’t work all that differently from regular ex cards, but it can mean more OP Pokémon are on your team — or on your opponent’s team. It’s best not to think of Mega Evolution Pokémon ex cards as a brand-new change, but more of an improvement over the existing way ex cards w
