I like the concept a lot-thanks for posting this. I need to trade for all the perts but I'm going to try out pairing volcarona and vileplume with Lugia and Giratina. Maybe 3 grass, 3 psychic, and 4 DCE? I can throw in a Wobbuffet too for the possibility of putting it active with a float stone to...

I probably missed it; in my head I was thinking of the non-Garbodor Hex build. Definitely doesn't seem ideal to run both, but I don't mind your idea of adding one in order to significantly improve the M Mewtwo matchup.

Speaking of Mew... I'd like to hear some thoughts about playing 1-2 copies of Mew in Mega Scizor builds. Purposes: -Great starter for max elixir -Free retreat opens up easier 1st or 2nd turn 110 damage attacks -(Most importantly) can OHKO M Mewtwo with Scizor's Gale Thrust I feel like keeping...

Ike and Robin - thanks for the advice. I think you're right on the money with a lot of it, especially building this around the local meta. That's really the main goal of the deck-all of the cards I listed are just possibilities depending on how the format shakes out. For instance, I've been...

Yeah I actually think you're right about Garbodor, especially if a lot of decks start running Garb. Could run 2 Hex instead as I feel that shutting down abilities will be important and a great turn 1. Is the metal weakness that important? I've only ever played online but plan on getting into...

I've been working on ideas for a ninja boy anti-meta deck that tries to cover a lot of weaknesses. The main goal is to take two turns per pokemon to power up with one rainbow and one DCE, then switch into whatever floats your boat if necessary. I'll focus on mostly the pokemon but here are some...

I think it could be great because it has very few bad matchups and hasn't really lost much to the rotation. I tweaked this omnipoke list that I think is pretty good, notably adding one more yveltal-EX and switching to a 2-2 count of baby yveltal and breakthrough yveltal along with replacing the...

I tried sky field but ran into the issue that opponents could bench >6 Pokemon, then play their stadium and bump a shaymin or two. Silent lab was another thought, but I also don't really want to discourage people from playing shaymin. Training center could help, I don't know if that rotates...

Thanks for the feedback, Omnom! I'm pretty new to the game and I had noticed that N was really effective late game with Octillery, but didn't think to make it a 4 count. I like that idea a lot. I started Bisharp at 4-4 and realized I didn't need that many; 2-2 might be better yet as well. I'll...

I had an idea for a deck that takes advantage of the fact that Shaymin is nearly ubiquitous, but some of its best matchups, like Night March, will fall to rotation. Any ideas for the upcoming format? Pokemon: 23 3 Pawniard STS 3 Bisharp STS 4 Joltik STS 4 Galvantula STS 2 Remoraid 2 Octillery 2...

I wonder how an aggressive deck designed to thin the deck out a ton would work with way less energy, 4 energy recycler and 4 super rod. 4 Acro bike too. Never used this deck before and it sounds a little crazy but I might try it out.

I've been wondering the same thing, but I'm new so I feel like it was just a guess for me. It really does seem like Garbodor would be effective against a lot of big decks at the moment. I don't know how popular it would be but this shuts down metal box too. Any other thoughts?

Thanks for the input. I started out with a retrieval item (super rod) but found that there were a lot of situations early game where I either couldn't or didn't want to use it. But it just might be worth it; I'll try a rod out again! Misty's could be good too, hadn't thought of that. Anyone...

Hi guys, This deck is based on the premise that item lock + a very fast paced battle compressor/vs seeker engine works well together. Combining Wally and Maxie's Hidden Ball Trick in one deck has great synergy! Pokemon (13) 2 Shaymin EX 2 Gallade BKT 4 Phantump BKP 4 Trevenant XY 1 Trevenant...
