<br>If you were a child of the late 90s, you were guaranteed a seat on the Pokémon hype train. You had the games, cards, lunchboxes and possibly even underwear. There was no escape from Pokémon. The cards in particular made people go insane. Stores would charge $2.50 for a single Nidorino and up to $60.00 for a holographic Venusaur, and we all heard legends of kids who struck it rich after pulling a Charizard.

Victory Ball is Victini's only attack. It deals 50 damage which is very useful but you must discard one energy afterwards. Be sure to stack your deck with enough Fire-type energy cards to keep Victini in the battle. Keldeo is a Water-type and has 90 HP. Its ability, Justified, allows it to inflict 50 more damage to Dark-type enemies and its Sacred Sword attack deals a staggering 100 damage. Keldeo has the potential to take down a large number of opponents because potential doubled amount against those weak to Water and then 150 damage against Dark-types.

One could also imagine the celestial images as more mechanical which would represent Magearna and the fire is used for Volcanion.

Thunder Shock dealing 30 damage is low but with the chance of paralysis and inflicting double on certain opponents will help. Mega Thunderbolt uses up two Electric-type energy cards and one other kind. It inflicts a whopping 160 damage while removing all energy cards from Pikachu.

We were also lucky enough to checkout some plush toys that are usually only available in a very specific manner. Those who pre-order Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are given one of three plush key chains of the Alolan starters: Litten, Popplio and Rowlet, each of which is so adorable. They are made of soft fabric and very detailed with all markings and features present, and are very high quality, coming directly from the Pokémon Center.

Charizard has been a popular Pokémon ever since the video games first released. It has a starring role as the cover mascot for Pokémon Red and has since made numerous appearance. Charizard was Ash's strongest team member in the anime series, and also a playable character in the Super Smash Bros. and Pokkén Tournament games. Its very first trading card is highly sought after and regarded as one of the rarest and most valuable. So, because of all these highlights, Charizard receiving its very own collectible card set is nothing out of the ordinary.

Picking up the box gets you a number of fun goodies that fans can enjoy. Three cards are already displayed front and center: Charmander, Charmeleon and Charizard are shown to let you know exactly what is coming. Each one looks pretty useful with great HP for Charmander and average attacks on Charmeleon. Then the Charizard-GX card has a huge surge meant for taking down your opponents in a massive way as it has an enormous 250 HP, which makes it pretty much built like a tank. Three energies of any kind allows it to use Wing Attack and inflict 70 damage, that's enough to take out almost all Pokémon in one to three hits!

Charizard-GX packs a lot into not only obliterating Pokémon but dismantling any rival's morals all in a single crushing turn that they'll have a hard time recovering from!

First we have a double dose of decks with Tropical Takedown and Twilight Rogue. The former features Alolan Exeggutor on the cover. It's cleverly packaged as the long, neck divides the window of the box. Its contents, however, are what really counts. Alolan Exeggutor comes in with 160 HP which is good to start.
