    Wow! The first stickied thread in this section!!!
     
    Surprised the European version have the older sets but they are notorious for getting them later. The major shocker of this is Hidden Legends is still being used considering that is an early enough 04 set.

    That was one of the better sets for deck mechanics, once that goes...

    Of course, I am out of date.
     
    I am WAY, WAY out of date, still stuck on Gym & Neo cards...

    But then again, I sadly have no one to play with:(......

    I'm glad though...that means this list doesn't apply to me!! YES!!!!!!
     
    I've been collecting the cards since they've came out- so my best cards, naturally, are older ones that are not tournament legal. I just asume to play using an unlimited deck containing old and new cards- I've never been to a Pokemon Tournament, but as soon as I get a legal deck built, I plan on attending them.
     
    A new list should be be out by now. x_x;

    I may need to update this.
     
    I'm a late person.

    Hehe , *is a loser*
     
    Bah, no more Holon engine. It's good and bad, I guess... hopefully I can sell off my engine before season's out. I'm running Flyqueen at the moment and apparently it works well with Scottaway too, so we'll see~

    &@above poster: no censor bypassing :(
     
    You've been warned for censor bypassing before, once in a blue mew. Now you're doing it again. This is your second warning. One more and you get a temporary ban.

    The latest list is this:

    EX Holon Phantoms
    EX Crystal Guardians
    EX Dragon Frontiers
    EX Power Keepers
    Diamond & Pearl
    Diamond & Pearl - Mysterious Treasures
    Diamond & Pearl - Secret Wonders
    Diamond & Pearl - Great Encounters
    Diamond & Pearl Trainer Kit
    POP Series 4 Promo Cards
    POP Series 5 Promo Cards
    POP Series 6 Promo Cards
    All Black Star Promo Cards numbered 037-040 and DP01 & higher

    In addition, future Pokémon USA, Inc., releases will become legal as they are released, per the Pokémon Organized Play Tournament Rules.

    With the exception of basic Energy cards and previously printed cards that appear in Modified-legal sets, players may not use cards from Pokémon sets prior to EX Holon Phantoms. Players using previously printed cards that appear in Modified-legal sets must play those cards using the wording of the most recent printing of the card. New sets are allowed as soon as the product has been released in that rating zone. In events that include multiple rating zones, such as the Pokémon TCG World Championships, the format of the United States will be used.

    There are currently no cards banned in the Modified format.

    NEW MODIFIED FORMAT ANNOUNCED
    Effective: September 1st, 2008

    In the interest of maintaining a healthy tournament environment, Pokémon Organized Play removes older sets from the Modified format at the beginning of each new tournament season. Each rotation challenges existing players to create new strategies while allowing new players to get into organized play with a minimum investment.

    Cards from the following sets are legal in the Modified Format (Diamond & Pearl onwards):

    Diamond & Pearl
    Diamond & Pearl - Mysterious Treasures
    Diamond & Pearl - Secret Wonders
    Diamond & Pearl - Great Encounters
    Diamond & Pearl - Majestic Dawn
    Diamond & Pearl - Legends Awakened
    Diamond & Pearl Trainer Kit
    POP Series 6 Promo Cards
    POP Series 7 Promo Cards
    All Black Star Promo Cards numbered DP01 & higher

    Remember, this is not effective until September 1st. The 2008 US National Championships and 2008 World Championships will both use the Modified Format (EX Holon Phantoms and onwards).

    Hope that helps everyone a little more.
