Free TCGO Code: March 29, 2014

Hey guys! Today, I attended my first sanctioned TCG tournament in over a year, going to a "Mini Battle Roads" as most of the people called it. I bought and won some packs there alike, and some of the Juniors were nice enough to give me some code cards from the packs they opened since they don't play the TCGO. Well, the thing is...

Neither do I, but I used to.

Anyway, whenever I get some TCGO codes, I will be sure to give away 1 per day. This only applies to days that I actually have TCGO codes with me, so this isn't daily, but it will be for the next 8 days or so.

Today's code is for:

1 XY Booster Pack

Code:

L95-85NL-T7K-UXC

Hope that whoever gets the code gets some good pulls! Enjoy! :D

XY3 Rising Fist announced

A few days ago, the next set in the XY series, Rising Fist, was announced. The release date is set for June 14th in Japan, and will likely be North America's August expansion. It looks like we will be seeing Mega Lucario in that set, and that it will also be focusing around Fighting-type Pokemon, just like Flashfire/Wild Blaze is centered around Fire-types. Not much is known about this set other than what is shown in this picture:


In this image I can see Mega Lucario on the pack art, which means that there is a 99% chance of a Mega Lucario EX. I can also see Hawlucha, some Basic Fighting Energy, Shauna, Tierno, and some weird-looking possibly special Fighting Energy.

Overall, based on what I can see so far, I'm really looking forward to the release of this set. More things are to be found out soon about this set, and whenever I find out about something, I will post it here. I hope I got you guys excited :D

Welcome to Pokemon TCG 101!

BLOG INTRODUCTION: What is Pokemon TCG 101?

My name is Erik and I have been playing the Pokemon Trading Card Game since January 2012. In the TCG, I'm in the Seniors Division and I'm from Sooke, BC, Canada. This is my blog, where I focus on writing/posting about Deck Lists, future TCG expansions, and playing the Pokemon TCG at a competitive stage.

I like to play Pokemon because the game is so full of different options and strategies, and it's like your controlling your own team of Pokemon. I've collected the cards long before I actually started playing the game and got excited rather than disappointed about pulling Trainer cards in a pack, and actually, I still collect the cards to this date, but I only collect legal ones, and playing is the higher priority for me.

I think of being a Pokemon TCG player as kind of like being an actor, because you have to do a lot of travelling... and sure as hell this game is freaking expensive to keep up with, but that's part of the fun of it. I'm always looking forward to big events such as Battle Roads, Cities, Provincials, etc. I just love filling out my deck list and getting to meet tons of new people, make new friends, open packs, and discover what there is to be discovered within this game.

So hopefully, you'll enjoy my blog if you're a Pokemon TCG player, I will ensure that you won't be disappointed!

And if you are... then leave!
