Adding on to this. I think it's necessary to be upfront and clear on why someone was disqualified, especially when it has major implications of the result of one of the biggest tournaments of the year (and the biggest tournament in LATAM). Every major esport is very clear on these kinds of things.
I really wish Pokémon would give explanations for their DQs. The rampant speculation about Gabriel's DQ hurts much more than just saying "here's what happened".

cool art! maybe Crispin + jet energy for a cheeky early game knockout or poke?

LC - Breaking Assault 20+
If this Pokémon moved from your Bench to the Active Spot during this turn, this attack does 90 more damage.
RLC - Dragon Claw 130

can’t imagine having to make use of google’s auto-translate 😂

given that Rotom struggles to get set up with its diff versions, this could definitely help make it more fun and functional — but not sure it’ll be enough to make it “good”.
Rotom
C - Rotocall
Search your deck for any number of Pokémon with Rotom in their name and put them onto your Bench. Then shuffle your deck.
CC - Gadget Show 30x
This attack does 30 damage for each Pokémon Tool attached to all of your Pokémon.

I still believe in The Conk
Conkeldurr is all about going big or going home! 💪

With support from Brute Bonnet on the bench, Conkeldurr can get afflicted with Poison to ignore the Energy cost of Gutsy Swing. Combo that with Binding Mochi to hit for HUGE damage!

if you have any tips on where to find Wii games on a budget, I’d really appreciate it!

I’m specifically looking for the following:
• Super Paper Mario (2007)
• Mario Kart Wii (2008)
• WarioWare: Smooth Moves (2007)
• Go Vacation (2011)
I’ve been planning out some gifts for my wife for our first Christmas as marrieds.

a few months into dating, I learned in years past, they had had to sell their Wii to make ends meet, and really regretted losing it.

I’ve tracked down a nice, used Wii and a CRTV. now for the games my boo had…

think TPCi will explain who these ‘heroes’ are? or is the name meaningless?

Now a second Mythical Pokémon has got a Mega Evolution...we can get Mega Celebi in time, right?

Please. In time...

non-promo Psyduck in the next English set seems likely, but by that point, what will it even matter?

TPCi put a premium price on a competitive card, and is sticking to their choice.

It's not a foolproof plan but every political debate from now on should be a Normal Guy competition. Ask them to describe grocery shopping in detail. Talk about what it's like to have a friend

if you love what you make,
do it for you.

you know what? I’m about to say it.

the #PokemonTCG needs more Exodia mechanics.

it’s quirky. it’s fun.
it’s not competitive, but it doesn’t have to be.

and that 1 in 100 games where it works?

getting new partner #Pokemon in the next #PokemonTCG set is fantastic news!

I just knew when everyone was saying there wouldn’t be more of them after Destined Rivals that it would’ve been a huge wasted opportunity.

TPCi has the chance to make some great decks happen. #PlayPokemon

looks like Porygon-Z’s back on the menu, boys
Team Rocket's Honchkrow!
CC - Rocket Feathers 60x
Discard any number of Supporter cards with "Team Rocket" in their name from your hand. This attack does 60 damage for each card discarded this way.
DCC - Hammer In 100
November 16, 2025 at 2:46 PM
if it didn’t have that “during your opponent’s turn” clause in there, this card would synergize really well with Rocket’s Giovanni or Boss’s Orders.

maybe the best we can hope for is this to be included in some kind of stall/trap deck. could be good against Tera Box’s Pikachu.
Team Rocket's Dugtrio
Ability: Pothole
Whenever any of your opponent's Pokemon moves from the Active spot to their Bench during your opponent's turn, put 2 damage counters on that Pokemon.
FC - Mud Shot 50
