----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pokemon Chat Report - Thursday, November 02, 2000 by Ka-Lok Fung - Scrye Contributing Editor ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- master_trainer_pat says, "Hey Poke-fiends and freinds! We have some interesting anouncements for you this week about some new cards on the way and some rulingclarifications from last week." master_trainer_pat says, "Realize that many Bothans died in order to get us this information." master_trainer_pat says, "Alright! Here's the deal with Ditto and Brock's Ninetails: When Ditto is opposite B. Ninetails and B. Ninetails has a Pokemon attached to it(that it has Shapeshifted into) Ditto _only_ copies the B. Ninetails, _not_ the Pokemon that it has Shapeshifted into." master_trainer_pat says, "If Ditto uses the Shapeshift P-mon Power to attach a Pokemon to it, and then Ditto's P-mon Power is turned off some how, the card that is attached to Ditto stays right where it is and doesn't have any further affect on the game unless that Ditto manages to copy B. Ninetails again." master_trainer_pat says, "Also regarding Ditto(no surprise there!): If Ditto is copying a Brock's card and Brock's Protection is attached to Ditto during thistime, the Brock's Protection card will not go away if Ditto becomes a copy of anon-Brock P-mon." master_trainer_pat says, "Whew! That's it for now...Mike do you have anything?" master_trainer_mike says, "Some NEO info!" master_trainer_pat says, "YEs!" master_trainer_mike says, "Many more Bothans died to get us this info too!" master_trainer_pat says, "Sigh!" master_trainer_mike says, "Some info on the first upcoming Pokemon Neo expansion. It will be called Neo:Genesis. It will contain over 60 all new Pokemon, including the Baby Pokemon. 2 new energy types (along with some Pokemon) called Darkness and Metal. It will be out within the next few months (no specific dates yet)." master_trainer_mike says, "So let's be nice to the Bothans today shall we?" master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #271 from feralshade: what's the main difference between Ditto and Koga's Ditto? master_trainer_mike says, "Ummm, one is cool and one not so minty fresh after all." master_trainer_pat says, "One is a real rules headache." master_trainer_mike says, "Yeah (remember be kind to Bothans day!)" master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #272 from scrye_fung: Ciao! and Take Care! master_trainer_pat says, "Bye!" master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #273 from lugia_2001: what is the next "W" promo? master_trainer_mike says, "Foil stamped Brock's Vulpix with issue 13." master_trainer_mike says, "Out soon!" master_trainer_mike says, "By the way, you can see the Space Weedle in it!" master_trainer_pat says, "Yowzaa!" master_trainer_mike says, "AND the first game puzzle by MT Mike and MT Pat! It's a doozy." master_trainer_pat says, "Uh huh." master_trainer_mike says, "Many Bothans died helping us make this puzzle." master_trainer_pat says, "I think I created a monsta!" master_trainer_mike says, "Would you rather I go back to MINTY FRESH!?!?!" master_trainer_pat says, "Please no." master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #286 from promomewtwo: when is pokemon neo coming out master_trainer_mike says, "No release dates for Neo Genesis yet." master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #292 from iamimakuni: yo wassup? minty fresh still cool? master_trainer_mike says, "MINTY FRESH is out! Many Bothans dying are in!" master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #294 from iamimakuni: noooooooo don't sing mike master_trainer_pat says, "Keep the questios comin'" master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #295 from scrye_fung: Neo: Genesis great name MTM. Where did WotC get it from? master_trainer_mike says, "Kierin is a true Phil Collins fan, he runs around singing from the Tarzan soundtrack." master_trainer_pat says, "In the air tonite..." master_trainer_mike says, "(sigh)" master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #296 from rocketelectabuzz: Neo will be called neo genesis correct?Also there will be a display at the STS correct?? master_trainer_mike says, "Correct!" master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #297 from marril2000: At the ECSTS what format will the playing field be(not decks. Swiss type?)? How long will it be and when would it start? master_trainer_pat says, "Swiss. Check the Pokemon page on our site for more info." master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #299 from chrisbo: Last week, you said that if Brock's Ninetales uses Shapeshift to attacha Muk, Muk's Toxic Gas power would shut down Shapeshift and cause Muk to be discarded ("Muk-B-Gone"). But Shapeshift ignores powers, so the Toxic Gas shouldn't work, correct? master_trainer_mike says, "We made a mistake. Many Bothans died for this mistake." master_trainer_pat says, "Correct. Also, see my announcements from this week for more on Ditto/B.Ninetails." master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #300 from tva_armand: when is UK version of pkmn gold coming out?? master_trainer_mike says, "Dunno ask Nintendo?" master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #301 from chrisbo: If Ditto is up against a non-Shapeshifted B's Ninetales, can it use theP-mon Power to search for an evo card to attach to Ditto (since it's not truly evolving, I think you can). And when Ditto transforms into something else the evo is discarded, ya? master_trainer_mike says, "BTW, for every Brock's Ninetails question we have toanswer, many Bothans will die!" master_trainer_mike says, "please pity the poor Bothans......" master_trainer_pat says, "You can't use the Shapeshift power to search. When Ditto copies something else the card that is attached stays right where it is." master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #302 from thamaster: howcome we do not get a fossil mew? do we have it another form ?? is itpromo #8?- master_trainer_mike says, "Promo #8 and #9 were the Mew cards." master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #303 from chrisbo: Any word from R&D yet on whether you can play a Sabrina's ESP on a Ditto copying a Sabrina's Kadabra? And if you gust up a different non-sabrina pokemon, could you still use the attached ESP when you attack? master_trainer_pat says, "Yes, you can and you could still use it." master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #304 from rocketelectabuzz: a dce on ditto can be any two energys right?? master_trainer_mike says, "Any 2 basic energies right." master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #305 from pipipi: YEEESSS! master_trainer_mike says, "Ok" master_trainer_pat says, "Uh huh" master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #306 from scrye_fung: What's up with the Bothan and Star Trek reference?
