    Life-Plosion is undoubtedly one of the more ridiculous effects you will ever see on an attack. Unfortunately, pushing cradily out in the first place is going to be a bit painful….

    Ha, weird. Life-Plosion won’t put any Revived Pokemon into play but it will get you older (pre-B&W) Fossil Stage 2s! Fossil lock just got a MAJOR improvement!

    Imagine how great this would have been with Mew Prime. I have my new PTCGO Unlimited pet deck when this comes stateside.

    what happens when you put down a pokemon with Life-Plosion and he gets hit by this guy?

    Golurk · Dragons Exalted (DRX) #59

      I’m pretty sure the Pokemon would be considered Basics, so Golurk would just do 60 damage with Devolution Punch.

        They are considered Unevolved Stage 2’s, not basics. Notice that Devolution punch (and devolution spray for that matter) says “evolution” and “evolved”; however, eviolite and prism energy won’t work on any of these guys, because they are still stage 2’s

          Interesting – thanks for the clarification Nathan!

    If there were any good legal stage 2’s in NXD-on (and yes, I know there are technically 3 more days until it’s actually NXD-on, then this would be good… If this were a basic, it would pretty much break the format.

    This could pose to make an interesting deck with stuff in the expanded format for the 2016 rotation.
