Pokeballing The Meta: A Look at Next Destinies

So given the fact that we are closing in on Pre-release time I figured I would look at some of the potential breakout cards from this coming set.....Next Destinies. So i am just gonna go over a few of my three personal favorite cards.

Vanilluxe – Water – HP130
Stage 2 – Evolves from Vanillite
Ability: Slippery Soul
Switch your Active Pokemon with one of your Benched Pokemon. Then, the opponent switches his or her Active Pokemon with a Benched Pokemon. You can use this ability 1 time during your turn.
[W][C][C] Ice Crush: Does 60 damage plus an additional 10 damage times the number of Energy in the opponent’s Active Pokemon’s retreat cost.
Weakness: Steel (X2)
Resistance: none
Retreat: 2
The Ability on this card is Warp Point on a pokemon and makes it easier to disrupt your opponents strategy, I can see VvV players teching this into the deck to have acces to disruption and taking out set up decks while under Trainer Lock.

Gardevoir – Psychic – HP110
Stage 1 – Evolves from Kirlia
Ability: Psycho Mirage
As long as this Pokemon is in play, each Basic Psychic Energy card attached to your Psychic-type Pokemon provides 2 units of Psychic energy. This effect can’t be stacked, regardless of how many Pokemon with this ability you have in play.
[P][P][C][C] Mind Shock: 60 damage. Don’t apply Weakness or Resistance for this attack’s damage.
Weakness: Psychic (x2)
Resistance: none
Retreat: 2
Gothitelle is one of the decks that i really really wanna experiment with and i totally see this replacing Reuniclus in the deck to give that extra little bit of speed.

Cilan – Trainer’s Support
Choose 3 Basic Energy cards from your deck, show them to your opponent, and put them in your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward.
You can only use 1 Support card during your turn
this card is gonna see play in decks in various numbers energy heavy decks should for sure run this over Interviewers Questions (yes i know Interviewers Questions can get Special Energy but if your like me its often a flop or you only get like 1-2 Energy anyways).

So these are three of the cards i will be on the lookout for at Pre-releases this month but thats not to say they are the only three cards worth getting. The Pokemon EX all look to be alot of fun and since they are also being released as full art pics to the chances of pulling them are actually very good.
