Fan of the two franchises that I loved! Pokemon is one of them.
This is cool but we have a small roster of Erika cards, so I don't think it would help at all. The only basic Erika card rn is Tangela, period. Most of Erika's Pokemon in the main series are evolved, which that alone hurts the overall consistency of that deck.

And it is on the top 6 cards, you chances are that you're wasting a supporter for 0. In a deck running like 6-7 basic energy, the odds of hitting one is very low.

Its bad tho. 30 ain't gonna be enough in a meta with 350 HP Pokemon. We need heal 300 dmg, anything that can reset your opponent's attack.
December 7, 2025 at 6:41 AM
It isn't but this is just worse. This is basically saying Bede is a better Welder, 6-7 years ago.
December 7, 2025 at 6:39 AM
That's more of a pre-release level Supporter card.
December 7, 2025 at 6:38 AM
Nope. This thing already bad on its own. It's more on a tech level. You're doing 100 against single-energy attacker for 3 energy, that don't hit for weakness. MAudino a decade ago is more on defensive side with Magearna, we don't have it atm.
December 7, 2025 at 6:37 AM
Scratch that, nvm. It is dependent on your opponent. This thing sucks against single-energy attackers.
December 7, 2025 at 6:36 AM
The more I see the blurred image before, the more it seems mediocrity.

Just use Blissey's Glass Trumpet combo, and you're good to go.
December 7, 2025 at 6:35 AM
Pocket's healing is more on a safety net level, because the health pools is smaller than the main TCG. TCG is more on resetting your opponent's work, since nowadays everyone is doing 200+ dmg.
December 7, 2025 at 6:34 AM
Bruh. At least Indeedee had some viability during its time tho. But with the time that we get 350 HP, 30 dmg is not enough to reset your opponent's progress. We have other cards existing in the format that fully heals ALL damage, doesn't matter if it works when you benched tho
December 7, 2025 at 6:31 AM
Sure you can KO Basic exs but that's abt it.
December 4, 2025 at 11:47 AM
Counter Gain helps, but not all the time it's reliable when the time you needed it because you commonly tech in 1 copy in some decks.
December 4, 2025 at 11:31 AM
It only matters if your one-hit wonder atk can KO for weakness. But even if you hit for weakness, 2 energy is just brutal, man.
December 4, 2025 at 11:30 AM
Pretty much your average bulk card
December 4, 2025 at 11:29 AM
Nope, not that easy. If they setup a bulky basic lead, this thing is basically pointless. Also, playing Crispin turn 1 means no Arven or Lillie for setup.

Needs ruling.

Sparkling Crystal is basically a useless tool, when the stadium is up.

Also, Colorless energy can be any type, so it ain't matter at all. If it is colored then Metal with the stadium, that's a different story.
November 22, 2025 at 12:23 PM
Depends on what deck you're using, but decks like Ceru and Pult can just make ways and tech in Crispin or running Chien-Pao to remove it.
November 22, 2025 at 12:21 PM
Spectrier is Reg I but Gardevoir ex is Reg G, tho.
November 22, 2025 at 12:19 PM
True, unless TPCi threw a curveball and release this, a set after. They did it with Blaziken ex before, when we expect to get one in Prismatic.
November 22, 2025 at 12:16 PM
Oh. Crispin needs 2 different types of energy. So you are telling me that you must need to run Darkness for mandatory Munkidori tech, then a random energy type.
November 22, 2025 at 12:13 PM
You know it needs to give up a prize to work, right? What if I need to attack by turn 2, to do decent damage, maybe 180 or 210, like right now? Those Counter Gains won't gonna help.
November 22, 2025 at 12:12 PM
I mean some decks do, it's not a playset, but at least it's there for safe pivot.
November 21, 2025 at 6:33 AM
Can we mention how Mega G is not a good partner for Munki post-rotation? Overflowing Wishes doesn't drop dmg counters on Munkidori.
November 21, 2025 at 6:32 AM
Depends if decks starts running 2 Shaymins, which is not optimal if they faced a deck that isn't heavy on bench sniping, making it 2 dead cards in their deck. Also, Gardevoir will rotate soon tho, so it doesn't matter. 3 Munkis can finish a Shaymin effortlessly.
November 21, 2025 at 6:31 AM
Ah yes, Crispin on a single-prized basic to do more than half of Dragapult's dmg. Very good, man. Very good.

If I used Crispin on a Rayquaza, it should be worth using a supporter for a turn, not just being used to KO a Munkidori or smth.
