Three entries in Pokémon Trading Card Game received one of the rarest treatments in the game. An errata is issued for a Pokémon card whenever the card’s text needs to be corrected, whether to fix a typo, clarify something, or change how an attack or ability works. There have only been a few official errata issued for cards, and most tend to affect trainer cards, not specific Pokémon cards.
A new errata has been added to the list, which will be applied to two cards with immediate effect, according to Pokébeach. The cards in question are the celestial Fighting-type Minior and the dual Pokémon card Venusaur and Snivy-GX. Pokébeach User Grillmeister noted that the oft-forgotten Minior now has a firmer place in the Pokémon TCG history, even if it’s for something unrelated to the card: “Is the most forgotten Pokémon in the TCG remembered for one of the rarest things?“
How the new Pokémon Errata changes the abilities of the two cards
The change makes both cards a little more powerful
The newly added errata changed the wording of the “Far-Flying Meteor” and “Shining Vine” skills, changing the way the skills are activated. Originally, both abilities allowed the player to swap their own (for Minior) or their opponent’s (for Snivy and Venusaur) active cards once per turn. According to the updated text, this can now be done “whenever” an Energy card is attached, meaning the ability can be activated multiple times per turn.
The update comes a little late for the Venusaur & Snivy GX, which has already been on the market for five years. The Minior, however, has only been available for a year, so the update was likely added due to the card gaining popularity among competitors. TCG players. The Minior’s attack deals damage based on the opponent’s recoil cost, so This change makes the card potentially useful in certain situations, especially when dealing with opponents that limit the ability to retreat, such as the dreaded Snorlax stall build.
Minior is one of the most underrated Pokémon in the series
Pokémon is loved by some but forgotten by many
Snivy and Venusaur are two well-known and loved Pokémon, but Minior is much less popular. The Rock and Flying type Pokémon are from Generation 7 Sun and Moon games and is not as well known. This is really a shame because its design is unique and the TCG card has some beautiful artwork by artist 0313.
In its base form, Minior looks like a bland meteor, but when its core is exposed it shines like a bright, smiling star. There are seven types of Miniors, one for each color of the rainbow, and it’s a happy, colorful design that should be better known. The change in the way Minior Pokémon Trading Card Game How the cards work can help make the Pokémon more popular by making the card a little more useful.
