If you're gonna make a female pikachu, fix the tail too
It's Chuchu; Yellow's Pikachu from the manga. She's not supposed to have a notch in her tail, but I guess I can make 2 versions.

I love the pokemon manga series the story is a little far fetched though some times.

The pokemon manga is awesome i think it's what the anime should have been like.

stealthraptor: oh yah definatelyi need more experience with my pika

I was away. So I just saw this. I'm sorry. I can no longer take anything you say seriously. Anyone who thinks Yugioh is better than mtg is.. I suppose entitled to their own wrong opinion. But seriously. No. Just no. MTG is the greatest game of all time. Bar none. And anyone who actually buys precons that don't contain Umezawa's Jitte (if you know what that card is..) can't even really discuss the game because playing with those decks, at the level that you probably play isn't even scratching the surface of the game.

I've been on hiatus from it for a while now, but before I was I routinely placed top 4 out of ~30 at the shop near my campus. And prior to that finished basically the same though in a different format back home. (Legacy at school, T2 & unlimited at home)

Point is, I have a more firm grasp on the game than most, and can say that although it takes a lot of time/experience, a LOT of money (reason I picked up legacy over T2, cause I already had the older cards I needed for good decks), and more intelligence than just about any game ever created. If you are able/willing to put that into the game then you will be able to have more fun with and care more about it than any other game you've ever played.

You're acting like I haven't played for ****ing YEARS. I learned from people who have been playing since alpha. I know my ****. Up till... Kamigawa actually. I tried getting into it again. I picked up a "gasp" precon" deck and like 20 bucks in boosters during shards and performed reasonably well against people who sunk tons of cash into the ****ing game and who made people in the tier thread look like jocks. I'm not bad at it. At all. Doesn't mean I have to bow down to the holy grail of Richard Garfield.

Although I am looking to trying again as my friend who plays more seriously than most just moved back. Too bad I can't still run my Raffinity deck. :C


Also DnD is the best RPG but I think a lot of White Wolfs ****(specifically Vampire, Werewolf and Mage) come in REALLY close.

@whoever said mtg is better than ygo....
MTG has never been as big as YGO was/is/probably will always be.

And Katakiri is making me wish I had a hacked wii.

That's not entirely true. Magic is ****ing BIG. And when I say YGO is better that's kinda trolling. Honestly I think they're ABOUT equal. I just think YGO is more fun. Even the atmosphere the game projects. People are too solemn playing MtG. I've played the same people in both. It just lacks a certain...energy.

That's because it's boring, Terios.

Compared to Yugioh, at least.

Either way, Pokemon TCG is better than both, because it's ****ING POKEMON!

@Kata: The manga occurs sometime before the gender characteristics in 4th gen, don't they?
If so, I'd think it'd be safe to assume that Chuchu has a heart-tail too.

Mirrodin was too good, but guess what the next block is called?

SCARS OF MOTHER****ING MIRRODIN. :3

The Pokemon manga actually has a story and action and character development and not a bunch of fillers and etc.


It's what Pokemon should've always been.

it's not just the players being solemn while playing. the whole game is. the cards' illustrations, the fact that your deck is called grimoire, spells, sorceries, making you think you're a powerful mage by drawing power from the lands you own, discovering that beyond almost every card there's a tiny little bit of the expansion's ambientation (flavor texts, I loved them.)... I honestly think the fact you have to manage mana, artifacts, creatures and enchantments makes MtG a bit deeper than yugioh. as I said though, I don't have any idea how the rules changed, so I may be wrong now. at the times I played (started with assault) it was way more fun, while yugioh barely had effect monsters.

Pro players are the only players who are REALLY solemn while playing. When I play with my friends, we have a blast.

And flavor text is one of my favorite parts of the game. Yugioh has WAY too many cards that are just random and don't fit with the rest of the cards in the set. :/

Oh, and the rarity system in Yugioh sucks too.

@FZies: lol Phoenix sucks, I **** him with Peach. Locals either kinda know the Pika MU or really know it. Sucks I went to something else I would have liked some IRL Pika dittos with someone from the boards.

@Prime: Esam and Anther probably do. Apparently Z plays more Fox now.

I've never quite understood strategies in Yugioh :/ If the card effect looks good, I like it.

Is there any point in having a ritual monster over a normal monster?

Ritual monsters are generally terrible and you should feel terrible if you use them.

Basic strategy in Yugioh is to swarm your opponent with so many monsters that he can't block them all and make sure that he doesn't have a nasty/overpowered trap waiting for you.

It's mostly luck, actually.

I DO wish there were uncommons and ****. :C

Everyone I know is solemn while playing Magic. We weren't when we started I remember. Kinda descended into it. But everyone got there eventually.

Ritual monsters tend to suck but they're getting slightly better. Like Ritual Raven covers the whole cost. They Djinn's can be used from the graveyard and if you use them your monster gets bonus effects like making your opponent discard or you get to draw.

The ability to use monsters for rituals twice and give them awesome effects is nice.

That's what my friends thought till I taught them to manipulate draw rates. XD

Pokemon's 3rd best. Actually....

1st/2nd Magic/Yugioh. Whichever.

3rd/4th Pokemon/Warcraft

Edit: Actually 5th is Duel Masters. Then everything else.

I like Pokemon but it's too much like Magic lite with less options. Fun though.

Were's silly.

All card games are, by default, luck-based.
You just decrease your chances of losing by having better cards.
