Hi there. More Pokemon cards are revealed from Japan's Heat Wave Arena set. These are Crustle, Dwebble, MC's Hype Up and a new version of Judge.

Dwebble
Dwebble is a 70 HP Basic Grass Pokemon. It has two retreat cost and Fire weakness. Its only attack is Ascension which allows it to search for Crustle and evolve the Dwebble into Crustle. This does not attack which is a drawback but you do evolve.
Crustle
Crustle is the evolved form of Dwebble. This has 150 HP, 3 retreat cost and Fire weakness. The ability of Mysterious Stone House is a defensive ability. You prevent all damage done to this Pokemon from attacks by your opponent's Pokemon ex. This Crustle is very similar to Mimikyu from Paldea Evolved.
Crustle is another defensive wall type option for control players that like to limit their opponent options. The ability does not stop attacks that place damage counters as placing damage counters is from an attack effect and not from damage.
Great Scissors requires one Grass Energy and two Colourless Energy to deal 120 damage. This attack also ignores any effects on the opponent's Active Pokemon.
I think Crustle will see some play as defensive wall Pokemon do appeal to some players that like to counter the metagame. Decks like these are effective in a way but I find them boring to play with (and even go up against).
Crustle also has an illustration rare version. Here it is. It is a close up of Crustle in its defensive pose. Kind of cute.
MC's Hype Up
MC's Hype Up is a draw supporter card. At first you draw 2 cards. If your opponent has 3 or fewer Prize cards remaining draw 2 more cards. (Total of draw 4 cards).
This card is not great. Use Lacey instead as Lacey lets you shuffle the hand back and redraw 8 cards if your opponent has 3 or fewer Prize Cards left.
New Version of Judge
Here is the new version of the card Judge. The regulation mark on the bottom left is still a G and not the letter H or latest regulation mark I. This could mean that Judge is not in the format in the year 2026.
The card effect is simple. Both players shuffles their hand into their deck and then draw 4 cards each. Judge is good to reduce the opponent's hand size down to 4 and/or it can reset your hand as well.
The new art for Judge is kind of cool and weird. This new Judge is trying to look cool by dancing and blowing his whistle. The past versions of Judge look more serious.
