I'd just like to clear up a few things. In his Single Card Strategies article about Charizard, 'Michael' states that you can retreat Charizard by discarding energy from your hand. This is simply false. The rulebook specifically states that whenever an energy card is to be discarded, it is discarded from the active pokémon. Cards should never leave your hand to go to the graveyard as the game is now. Ever. Secondly, the "Truth about Lass and Imposter Oak.txt" file states that Lass is superior to Impostor Oak because she makes your opponent discard, while IOak does not. This is also untrue: the card itself states that all affected cards get shuffled back into the library, just like IOak. I know that it's impossible for you at the Pojo to review all of these posts for accuracy, so I instead put out a plea to all readers: PLEASE do not take anything you read here as immediately true. Look it up...always look it up. Thank you, Essence Attachment Converted: "c:\WINDOWS\Desktop\MAIL\smime1.p7s"
