Why It's Banned! EVERY Banned Pokemon Card!

At least Jessie and James achieved something evil for once.

It's kinda funny how alot of these cards are banned bc of how they work w each other lol

Archeops having an ability that's not only good, but BAN-WORTHY, is really funny considering what its ability in the video games is like

I feel like the script for the video could have been written a lot less repetitive, just list off all the hand disruption cards and explain the whole combo once and then move forward, other than that I enjoy the style of editing and narration! Keep them coming!!!

It’s actually funny from the Unowns because of the fact that they were banned the moment they were printed despite the win condition being questioned if even possible. I’ve hadn’t heard of a circumstance where it’s possible to achieve either win condition on the first or second turn but no one wanted to even take a chance on it happening. Haha.

when you knock out your own jirachi with the island amulet your opponent takes two prizes not one. they only take the one less prize if they knock it out with an attack. this helped the stratagy as you wanted to get them to 1 prize asap.

Man pokemon was cooking with the sun and moon and XY sets.

Great video! Another reason why forest of giant plants was banned was the Shiftry from Next Destinies. You could very consistently donk the opponent. Shiftry was banned quickly after forest came out, but it was unbanned once they just decided to ban forest.

XY was basically Mardi Gras

As a Yugioh player I love that the hole pokemon bannlist is pretty much 3 decks 😂. Handloop, stun and ftks. At first I thought its an interesting decison do ban chip chip ice axe because its aparently the biggest problem in a handloop deck but than the video continued

my first thought was "why dont they play test the abilities before release?" But then i realized how hard it would be to test how a card works with every other pokemon card to exist lmao

I remember creating a broken control deck with almost all of the banned cards and playing it in a format "Unlimited Wednesdays" at my LGS. Such good times... The format in my LGS is just like Expanded (Black and White onwards) but without BANS.

Ive only ever been to one Pokémon tcg competition before, and it was during the Black and White era. I ran in with a pretty crumby Mashup deck of two random decks I bought from Walmart, but everyone else was running a deck that involved that exact Sableye card. Only one person I fought there that day didn't have that deck. They all focused on the HypnoToxic Laser item card, Virbank gym stadium card, and Darkrai. The HypnoToxic Laser would poison your active Pokémon, and could also put them to sleep. The stadium card made poison deal +2 extra damage tokens, and darkrai's ability caused sleep to cause damage as well. The Sableye would keep grabbing the laser. You'd only get one turn on average to do anything with your active Pokémon before they'd get put to sleep and sleep/poison chip damaged to death. Glad to see that Sableye got what it deserved lol

I agree 100% that Scoop-Up Net should have been banned over Shaymin-EX or at least errata'd to say "except Pokémon with a rule box"

I'm a Yu-Gi-Oh! player, which is probably why I've seen this video...and holy moo-moo, those cards are strong, even for a TCG like Pokemon. Except for the fact that if any of those cards appeared in Yu-Gi-Oh!, it would immeidatly get banned, I think iot is funny how every card game make cards which make discards, and which always end up being banned X)

maxie's ball trick shouldn't be banned in decks that don't have arcecheops (can't put the maxie card in a team magma theme deck because of the ban)

This is why Konami doesn't make many cards to remove cards from your opponent's hand in Yu-gi-oh. Also, a strategy that knocks out your own pokemon being overpowered is not something I expected.

I mean its a cool video idea conpletely ruined by the fact that about 70% of the video is just saying the same exact thing over and over again.

You're telling me that Unkown was OP?! Now I've seen everything.

Good voice for narrative videos, solid info i was looking for thanks
