nincada pokemon card (66) - EX Dragon - Pokémon Hit Points40 HP Form Nincada 016/132, Ninjask 017/132, Mega

I was initially skeptical, but thought it was worth trying out

We have the YIPPEE Pikachu a couple of spots above, and the UH-OH Pikachu here

The point is if Pokemon was modeled after MtG it would make perfect sense that the initial cards would have not had the concept of rarity symbols

The Counterpoints: What the Skeptics Are Saying I hope all of my readers are familiar enough with me to know that, while I do have my fair share of strong opinions, I try my best to be a reasonable person

And if you want to go big, Curaga gives everything you control hexproof and indestructible until the end of turn, plus 6 life

Personally I think it makes for more interesting strategy, but if the aim is to carve out a competing slice of the online CCG space, the complexity this adds may still prove to be an obstacle
