Updated on March 10, 2023, by Tom Bowen: Packing, purchasing, or trading powerful EX cards is certainly important, but so too is knowing how and when to actually use them. Choosing which deck to insert these powerful EX cards into can be vital, for example, while pairing them with the right supporting Pokemon can go some way to preventing opponents from countering them. Trainers should also take note of the weakness and resistance of each of their cards so that their power isn’t squandered, as losing an EX Pokemon card can often result in a loss of pride as well as a pair of precious prize ca

Belonging to the Stormfront expansion, this stage 1 Water-type pokémon, has three unique abilities called Tail Revenge, Wreak Havoc, and Dragon Beat. Among these, the Tail Revenge ability, which requires zero damage is the most useful, allowing players to deal 30 damage multiplied by the number of Magikarp cards in his/her discard p
Unfortunately, given the vast number of Pokemon species, the Shining Fates set barely even begins to cover the full gamut of known Pokemon. That being said, it does feature a fair amount of monsters that have yet to be included in many sets (Pokemon from the Galar region), and an impressive number of potential Shinies. Shiny Suicune , Dreepy, Dragapult, and Boltund, are but few of the Pokemon appearing in Shining Fates’ Shiny Va
A basic Pokemon with 170 HP, Keldeo EX is a brilliant Water-type pokémon that can be used to recycle the player’s active Pokemon with a Keldeo EX sitting on the bench, using its ability Rush In, which requires no energy.

Those familiar with the Pokemon TCG may also be reading through with some déjà vu. That’s simply because Shining Fates was actually directly inspired by the previous (incredibly popular) special expansions dubbed “Hidden Fates” and “Shining Legends.” Each of these expansions were known for featuring Shiny Pokemon in special holographic-alternative cards. That is, the sets have a special “Shiny Vault” of cards that can be found as a Shiny Pokemon variant . Rather than featuring significantly different artwork though, these cards are treated as a form of “holo,” and instead simply bear a unique backdrop and the Pokemon’s Shiny vari
