This is arguably the "purest" Pokemon TCG experience you can have, as all the normal rules are in effect with no change or deviation: 60-card decks with no more than four of any non-basic energy card, with six prize cards offered up by each player
These force your opponent to discard a card from their hand, and while this might not appear all that powerful at first glance, repeatedly forcing your opponent to discard cards or being able to choose a specific card from your opponent's makes discard effects worthwhile

Look, I think Ascended Heroes's Mega Gengar secret illustration rare is as cool as the next person, but you can't tell me that a new card that's still being printed could possibly be truly worth over $3,000
