Prerelease Promos for Forbidden Light! Revealed!

[Crossroads Bulletin]

The light will reveal all in the darkness!

The prerelease promos for Forbidden Light have been revealed! The Pokemon from Forbidden Light that will be featured as promos will be Pheromosa, Xurkitree, Malamar, and Lycanroc (Dusk Form).
The most wanted card out of these four will be Malamar. It has an ability that allows you to accelerate energy from your discard. Psychic type Pokemon have been wanting a form of energy acceleration for a long time.
Lycanrock (Dusk Form) can prove to be useful as a cheap Fighting type attacker in Fighting type decks. It is interesting to note that the attacks that this Lycanroc knows are the GX attacks from the Midday and Midnight form Lycanroc GX.
Xurkitree can be useful if you want to cause some disruption by paralyzing. Though you will need to make sure that you have only three prizes left.
Pheromosa could be useful if you wish to do a powerful attack with a single prize attacker. If you can pull off Pheromosa’s second attack to win the game then that would be great.
Prereleases for Forbidden Light will take place the weekends of April 21st through 29th. The set will be release on May 4th.

How far behind are you?

I am looking forward to that Malamar card. That one looks good.

I haven't bought anything from the last set, unfortunately. But I'm more or less after the rare cards for collector value. Like, I have that one $60 Shaymin Card from Roaring Skies. I haven't had a lot of money of late, so I'm not going to go crazy and buy up packs. I usually only buy a couple packs from each set plus all the little boxes with the pins and promo card. Like when the 20th Anniversary hit with the Generations Packs (all of which up to this point I have purchased). I actually opened those and have a bunch of rare cards from them. So to have all 4 of these Promo Cards would be pretty awesome.

As far as playability, none of them would really fit since I run Team Aqua/Magma Decks. Which 90% of the cards are titular and pretty specific to that theme. It would be nice to see an update to those cards so I could update my deck that's 3 years outdated. My Yugioh deck isn't even that bad. xD

The full art Cynthia card from Ultra Prism is a big chase card from the set. Most of the full arts are highly wanted. There is a new full art Lillie that is liked along with a new full art Lusamine card. I pulled my second one this pass weekend.

Pokemon is doing this cool thing where they are featuring a region per set. Ultra Prism is based off Sinnoh which includes some cards featuring villains or their Pokemon. Forbidden Light has Pokemon and characters from Kalos. The next set is suppose to be based off Hoenn. I don't think they will add anything like Aqua or Magma but they could have new character cards like for Maxie and Archie.
