Hi! First time poster here at the PoJo, I'm Mike W! I've been picking up 
Japanese Pokemon cards for the jungle and fossil set, and i got traslations. 
I just want to share my excitment for the new set with some awesome new cards 
that are coming!

Wigglytuff-
The evolved form of Jigglypuff, Wigglytuff, is likely to make a splash on all 
decks. His basic, Jigglypuff, has 60 HP, Lullaby puts opponent to sleep right 
away, and for 2 colorless dishes out 20. Wigglytuff has the same ability for 
sleep, except his 3 colorless attack, Friendship Ring, is devestating. It 
does 10+ 10 more for each Pokemon on your bench. That's 60 damage for 3 
energy! With a resistance to Psychic and a weakness to fighting, and 80 
health, not even the powerful Hitmonchan is a problem! Lullaby him to sleep 
and finish him off!

Mr. Mime-
An outstanding basic, but 40 HP still make shim shine. His power will make 
him Mewtwo's replacement as the Mirror Match expert. His power, Puzzling 
Wall, prevent's damage 30 and over done to him after applying weakness (which 
is Psychic). Psychics other than Drowzee and Abra can't hurt him! The 
infamous Blastoise falls short, the over-used fire breather Charizard is a 
waist, and his attack rules! Yes, its Meditate! For 1 colorless and 1 
psychic, 10+ that damage counters on the defender! First 10, then he has 30 
on him, then he has 70 on him, and then any Pokemon is dead! The only 
downside of this speechless mime is the resistance wall. But then there's 
always other Pokemon...

Exeggutor-
Oh yeah! Evolved form of Exeggcute. Exeggute's got 50 HP, Bulbasaur's Leech 
Seed and Hypnosis for 1 Psy. Strange, huh? But Exeggutor, he is great for 
being splashed into Psychic decks. Teleport lets him retreat for free, for 
just 1 Psy (but it waists your attack), and MAX Barrage kicks butt. For 1 
colorless, you flip a coin. If heads, it does 20. For each energy card on 
Exeggutor, flip a coin. MAX Barrage does 20 times the number of heads. In a 
Grass Deck, team it with Venusaur's damage swap. Oh yeah!

Rapidash-
In my opinion, the return of fire Pokemon. The evolved form of Ponyta has a 
free retreat cost, and 70 health. Stomp does 20+ 10 if you flip heads, but 
Agility, for 2 Fire and 1 colorless, is better then Fearow's (also in Jungle) 
and Raichu's. The upside is the 30 damage factor. The only reason I'll  ever 
use Ponyta.

Eevee (and evolutions)-
Now I understand the point behind Devolution Spray! Any deck with Eevee and 
his evolutions require at least 2 of 'em. Eevee isn't great in himself, but 
his 3 evolutions, all of different types, are great. Jolteon's Pin Missle, 
for two Lightning Energy and 1 Colorless, lets you flip 4 coins. Does 20 
times the number of heads. Great potential. Flareon's Flamethrower takes as 
much as Arcanine's Take Down for Energy, but you discard 1 fire for 60. Both 
Jolteon and Flareon have 70 health. Finally, the Vaporeon's got Water Gun. 
For 2 Water and 1 colorless, does 30. For 4 water and 1 colorless does 50. 
Upside: Raindance and 80 health. All 4 (Eevee, Flareon, Jolteon, and 
Vaporeon, have got Quick attack, for 2 energies. 10+. Flip a coin, if heads, 
it does 30. Cool.

That's all for now, I'll send more like Scyther, Pidegot, and Mankey a little 
later!
