Pokémon Black and White: Booster Series

Jun 05, 2011

Do you love Pokémon? Did you play Pokémon Black or Pokémon White on the Nintendo DS? If so, it's time to check out the Pokémon Black and White Booster Series for the Trading-Card Game! This brand new set follows the theme decks that were released a couple of weeks ago and brings us more Pokémon from the Black and White series.

Abilities

This new set features the new Pokémon introduced in Black and White, including the starters Tepig, Snivy and Oshawott. Even if you already have their theme decks, you will still want to pick up these booster packs because the final evolutions that you find in the booster packs have abilities, unlike the ones you can get in the theme decks. For example, Emboar’s ability Inferno Fandango allows you to attach as many fire energy as you want to any Pokémon. This will help in any fire deck!

Full-Art and Secret Cards

This time around, the set features two very special cards – Reshiram and Zekrom Full-Art edition. This means that the picture of the Pokémon on the card covers the entire card! While the full-art edition of the card has the same attack as a normal Reshiram or Zekrom, the completely holo card is definitely an item to collect. Besides these two full-art cards, there is also a Secret Pikachu in the set. It looks like a normal card, but upon closer examination, you will see a lightening symbol on the shimmering holo card!

Online Codes

In each of the booster packs, you will find a code card. Enter this code when you visit the new TCGO (Trading Card Game Online) Beta website and you will receive a virtual pack in the Online game! The TCGO lets you build your decks and test them out online against other players. This way you can see how the deck would do before buying specific cards.
