@Tox2wavy we have some pokemon sprinkled in from other regions, but this first set is primarily Kanto. So it's not crazy to think that the next big set will be Johto heavy, between pokemon and supporters
mini set was confirmed, there was a letter with all info what to expect in the next 2 months, some time ago. Also, set will be ''update'' of current set. So we will have more cards in types we are lacking eg. dark. The only question is, is it going to be around some theme or just an addition. Magikarp event will happen end December beginning of January. Gen 2 can be a main for new big set but they could take a different route and go with the latest gen. Don't think it will be a linear big set release with the gens.
I would love to see all the four pokemon that needed trade to evolve getting a EX version. We already have Gengar and Machamp, maybe Alakazam and golem are on their way in the miniset
Would love the Garchomp line! I also like that Mew isn't OP since it doesn't force players to collect all the cards to get one card that is needed for battles. The collector in me still wants it though, just missing 12 cards. lol
The mini set was officially announced by the devs. They explicit said we get a mini set mid December (they only mentioned mid December) they told us about trading and the other set end of January.
My predictions: Mini set will have kanto elit 4 focus along with a few more ex gen 1. Main set 2 will still be gen 1, but all with new affects. Maybe team rocket focused as well. With 2 versons of each gen 1 ponemon, we could decide which of the 2 versions we would prefer.
I've always thought the 3 mascot pokemon for the 2nd main set would be: Feraligatr, Ho-oh, Tyranitar. They would all be immersive EX cards as we have in Genetic Apex. Tyranitar would strengthen dark type decks with that immersive EX, the other 2 packs would have the other starter trio (Typhlosion in Tyranitar pack and Maganium in Ho-oh pack - both EX as well). Each pack would have a legendary dog. Celebi would be a the same mission as the Mew from Genetic Apex. And Lugia I would put in the Tyranitar pack, Scizor EX would be in the Ho-oh pack, and Houndoom EX would be in the Feraligatr pack to balance out typings and so you can get a variety in each pack.
Looking forward to more steel, possible EX's being Scizor or Kingambit, Lucario line would be nice too since he's a fan fav, my personal fav would be EX Annihilape
Pure speculation; I even went as far as to make my own mock-up logos on Twitter (for Set A2 anyway) - but I think Mini Set A1 could potentially be some fan favourites that we haven't seen about just yet spread across some generations - like Lucario and similar popular picks. A couple of exs, maybe a handful of supporters and probably one immersive rare? Set 2; I feel it could be Ho-Oh, Lugia and Unown (with the bird trio and dog trio featuring within the immersives of Ho-Oh and Lugia respectively). It's my favourite generation and I really hope that's the case come January.
They pretty much kinda confirmed mini set on their ingame announcement. They mentioned that a new set will be released before 2025 and another one on January so there's that.
I feel that the new mini set will introduce kanto support. But my theory if they make evolution stones for like eevee, clefairy, jigglypuff, vilplume nindoking and Nindoqueen line that will balance out their evolution line and attach the item evolve, attach energy :) that would be good.
Slotting the mini set into apex doesn’t make much sense, because if you collect all the current cards you get the notification that says congratulations you collected all cards from generic apex
If the next big pack is gonna follow the trend, I’m betting that the next three packs are gonna have Snubbull, Tyranitar, and Suicune (and a dreadful suspicion that Miltank could get an EX).
Havent heard anyone talk about new immersives, but i wonder if we'll get one with the miniset. I'd think we would because we have one that corresponds to each of the current packs.
I bricked at 3 never at 4, I won 4, and was stupid nervous I was gonna shit draw, and Kinda did but my opponent bricked harder. Now I just auto concede.
We got greninja as the only starter that’s not from kanto, why? Because greninja is one of the biggest fan favourites. And because of that I could see them giving us kinda any Pokémon at any time
BTW, I won with a budget deck that I consistently do good with. My deck counters most of the current meta, and it's super budget to get. No flip cards. And no gamble cards like red card. Something that inconsistent can't be trusted for a win streak. Ekans and Coughing with evolutions with a single farfetched for a bit of extra speed or to sacrifice. 2 is just too many, so I went with one. And one potion and no speeds. The rest of the cards are obvious. It's the most consistent budget deck I've ever made. And that's what's most important here.
I think we are speculating too much about this "mini set". In my opinion A1A will be just 1 pack that will be a support for the Genetic Apex. I see some people thinking this will be a 3 pack series, with all kinds of cards. In my opinion, that's highly unlikely
"It's not rigged" wink wink nudge nudge slams credit card on desk. This event is purely to get people to spend their hourglasses in an attempt to get an emblem before the new cards come out. That way they will have to spend money to buy more.
One of the most badly designed cards I have ever seen, it just creates frustrating situations for both players depending on the coin flip, wish it was just like Brock support card
This pvp event showcases how RNG this game is, even with "meta" decks. To struggle so much getting 5 wins in a row with "perfect" meta decks is ridiculous. I've tried with every meta deck and it's literally just luck of the draw or comes down to coin flips.
Just use a variation of pikachu ex, easily the most consistent deck rn. I was struggling with the 5 wins until I switched to pikachu and then went 9 wins 1 loss
@@LocalHobo631i use pikachu ex deck with 2 pikachu exs one pikachu one raichu magnemite magneton and zapdos along with lt surge still lost 11/15 only got the first emblem
Here’s a way to win 5 in a row, get good. I hate it when people moan about winning. Like just persevere and you will do it, people want hand outs 🤦♂️😅
It is rigged. I got it done pretty fast. But my first 3 attempts I got to game 5 and lost. I've been suspicious of consistent statistically odd patterns for a while, but after this, I know the gameplay mode is rigged for sure. Those 3 game I lost where to worst drawing I have ever had in the game. 1st 2nd and 3rd worst! How is that possible? On one of the games, I was playing against a deck I countered and still lost but I was able to hold on to the point where there were 7 cards in my deck left. What were those 7 cards. Every single evolution in my entire deck and a few trainer cards that would have won me the game if I had any of them. This sort of thing happened 3 game 5s in a row! Then I hear about the same thing happening to everybody else. Rigged!
@@TheCookieKing2000 Skill gap? Did you even read what I said? How can someone win 17 out of 20 games and you think there's a skill issue... Maybe you're referring to your reading comprehension. If that's the case, then it's no problem. Stick with it. You'll get better with time.
Getting 5 consecutive wins against meta and exploit abusing speds is mad annoying kept getting 4 wins with a dumb weezing wigglytuff deck and losing the 5th after this i absolutely despise coin flips never wanna see one again
It would be crazy if the mini set doesn’t exist and the devs continue to be silent
I sure hope it is not the case
I feel like it could happen, do “mobile” TCGs normally do a “mini set” in between full set releases?
Please don't speak it into existence I swear
@@simplfiedshots duel links does
Like gyarados and magikarp's event
I think mini set will be Mew and adding EX cards to existing pokemon we currently have.
I'm thinking set 2 will introduce Johto
its already been said the sets don’t follow dex order or area order, we literally have the 151 kantos and melmetal in genetic apex
@Tox2wavy we have some pokemon sprinkled in from other regions, but this first set is primarily Kanto. So it's not crazy to think that the next big set will be Johto heavy, between pokemon and supporters
im just praying for scyther, crobat or steelix from the mini set
I'm hoping for Nido EXs, Golem EX, new items and Elite 4 supporters
@ scyther and steelix won’t be added because they’re not regular evolutions, for crobat i believe they will add him some time

Gen 2 can be a main for new big set but they could take a different route and go with the latest gen. Don't think it will be a linear big set release with the gens.
oh i wonder if we get a shiny gyrados to bridge the two sets together, that would be neat
I would love to see all the four pokemon that needed trade to evolve getting a EX version. We already have Gengar and Machamp, maybe Alakazam and golem are on their way in the miniset
More copies of the gen 1 starter's earlier stages would really help with consistency, and more energy generation would be appreciated.
Maybe we get a miniset based on subspecies. The alternate versions of the legendary birds would give dark and fighting decks some new toys.
Would love the Garchomp line! I also like that Mew isn't OP since it doesn't force players to collect all the cards to get one card that is needed for battles. The collector in me still wants it though, just missing 12 cards. lol
It is fun to have for sure.

Wild that you speculate ho-oh and not lugia. It will either be both or neither.

They pretty much kinda confirmed mini set on their ingame announcement. They mentioned that a new set will be released before 2025 and another one on January so there's that.
I feel like ho-oh and lugia will be included in main set. Mini set only includes elite 4 and some ex versions of existing cards
U know what would be sick. They don’t put what’s in the pack. So you pull without knowing what you could get
I got legitimately so lucky going 5-0 my first time through. Used greninja starmie to get 3 then switched to sweaty raichu deck to win last two.
slakoth, vigorath, and Slaking!!!
Packs will be Ho-oh or Lugia, sudowodo or unknown and feraligator
I feel that the new mini set will introduce kanto support. But my theory if they make evolution stones for like eevee, clefairy, jigglypuff, vilplume nindoking and Nindoqueen line that will balance out their evolution line and attach the item evolve, attach energy :) that would be good.
Nido decks are terrible it doesn't need anything else
It isn't about how bad they're, its interesting to have a different mechanic for evolution pokemon that people like! @@t.o.a.s.t.e.r
I was guessing on an orange island theme for the mini set, but maybe not.
Is it possible for a card like Electivire Ex to be in the mini set or maybe in set 2 ?
Set 2 of 3 mains are firraligator, Lugia, and tyranitar!
Got 5 win Emblem with just Mewtwo Dex... Last matches were easy as luckily toxin team is rare
I'm inclined to think the mini pack or second will be Ho-Oh, Lugia, and Suicune. GF places more importance over Suicune than their brethren.
i think its really unknown what they are gonna do with the new set. we will see!

we can only hope lol
14:05 You don't need the entire Genetic Apex to get Mew, just the 150 Kanto pkmn
I was thinking it would be the jhoto evos like kingdra crobat scizor etc
I’ve won 13 in a row with my deck primeape, wigglytuff, hitmonlee to kill retreaters all 3 are one evolution or less fast to the field
Havent heard anyone talk about new immersives, but i wonder if we'll get one with the miniset. I'd think we would because we have one that corresponds to each of the current packs.
Oh good point!
I think there'll be two packs in the mini set
I bricked at 3 never at 4, I won 4, and was stupid nervous I was gonna shit draw, and Kinda did but my opponent bricked harder. Now I just auto concede.
It IS RNG... But my mew2 got it in 8 matches... 🤷🏻

I’m just ready for new cards generally so we can spice the meta up💯

I have got to 4 almost every run. I can't clutch up
I got my badge with arbok/Wigglytuff deck
Maybe its the elite 4 mini set
Feraligatr, lugia, tyranitar set 2. Mini set idc what game is dying quick
Would love a sneasel ex, sneasel being my favorite pokemon
You mean Weavile right?
I’m sure they will have this event again
It took me 6 attempts of 4 wins and a loss on my fifth broke down and used pika ex and got my wins
Discounted poke gold prices in Friday the 13th pls
I literally won my 5th in a row due to a tails coin flip
Focus sash would nerf Charizard so I won't allow it

I agree with you.
Its been data-mined to be around 76 cards, though not confirmed.
Speculating is fun
Nope not always because the Pokemon can be burned or poison 9:49
I did 2 attempts pika went 4/1
Then I went charizard 5/0
Only lost the pika deck because misty turn one flipped 4 coins on Articuno going first
Anyone can pilot them, so true. . Domt have any of that unlocked tho
I pass the event whit melmetal/pidgeot...i'm proud of me..😂😂

Still no trading system release still very disappointed about it
