They should have reprinted this instead of Gust of Wind

But you can only use this if you have more prizes than the opponent. And I guess you won’t be using its first ability that often.

That’s why they should have reprinted this instead… it’s not broken, it’ll only help you catch up not dominate. Hell, they could have printed it without the 1st ability, you just use the Gust every time.
Twins · Triumphant (TM) #89 and Black Belt · Triumphant (TM) #85 see play and so did Scramble Energy · Deoxys (DX) #95… this would get used.

What I find to be crazy is that they didn’t just reprint gust of wind, they reprinted it under a different name…
which means that you can now put up to eight gusts of wind in your deck. On the other hand ,they seem content on retroactively nerfing the other unlimited powerhouses. (Bill and Computer Search. Place your bets on when the same axe falls on Oak and Energy Removal)
Mantidactyle
If they reprint Prof Oak as an Ace Spec Trainer, Pokémon will become a top-deck game for the two years to come :P
Blob Takeshi
You mean 3 years ago? Being in the future is weird…
Mantidactyle
They didn’t reprint it. Even Shaymin-EX pales in front of Oak.
Blob Takeshi
They didn’t reprint it… yet!
Krisi92
Oh, okay, I thought you were saying this was a better card. Anyway, I think Twins is still broken.

Were there combos with this card and Electrode-ex (to manipulate your # of prize cards) at the time it was legal?
Charmaster
Yep! It was like playing Gust of Wind in a Pokémon Catcher format! Electrode ex’s most iconic partner was Dark Tyranitar TRR 19, but it has also been paired with Rayquaza ex DX and Zapdos ex RG in 2005 (Due to their ability to borrow energy from other Pokémon), and retro Pokémon TCG players have been pairing it with all sorts of Pokémon in recent years, from Exeggutor RG to Delcatty RS, and from Machamp LM to Salamence DS!
