    Speed M Rayquaza-EX

    I don't think you have to hold Dragonite back, you can play it to your bench just to fill up and even if the ability doesn't trigger its still giving you 30 extra damage. Then if it gets discarded for some reason you can use super rods or brock to get it back and start over and maybe the ability...

    Speed M Rayquaza-EX

    Any thoughts on the news cards coming out in evolutions? I think Brock's Grit will be great for us as well as considering replacing my Jolteon EXes with Dragonite EXes for his support in filling up the bench. I am concerned with retreat costs and lysandres but I can run a manaphy and switch the...

    Standard [Future 2017 Format] M Rayquaza and Jolteon EX

    Here is an idea I was futzing with. I think its too heavy to make it work realistically, but wouldn't it be nice... ****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ****** ##Pokémon - 18 * 3 Rayquaza-EX ROS 104 * 3 M Rayquaza-EX ROS 105 * 4 Shaymin-EX ROS 77 * 1 Zorua BKT 89 * 1 Zoroark BKT 91 * 2...

    Standard M Rayquaza-EX / Zoroark / Raichu (2017)

    Post em I'd like to see too. Also, here is an idea I was futzing with. I think its definitely too heavy to make it work well but it would be amazing if it did... ****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ****** ##Pokémon - 18 * 3 Rayquaza-EX ROS 104 * 3 M Rayquaza-EX ROS 105 * 4 Shaymin-EX...

    Standard M Rayquaza-EX / Zoroark / Raichu (2017)

    I've been getting busted. Both the reasons you mentioned. Parallel city is just devastating and most all decks play it now. Giratina is a bad match up also though sometimes I can speed through it or lyasander around it but once they get the parallel city up and lock it in its game over usually...

    I like 8, its been my magic number, maybe even on the excessive side by it makes for easy things to discard and I like em being in the discard pile, at least a few for mega turbos. I suppose I can see the ninja boy for hoopa starts, though I never have had too much a problem, I generally get a...

    Standard [Future 2017 Format] M Rayquaza and Jolteon EX

    What exactly does water bring to the RayQ deck, other than maybe using Manaphy for free retreats with water energy other than using float stones and AZ. Why do you think Water Ray will be the new thing? Also, why is Ninja boy auto include. I can see the benefit of no wasted energy if your not...

    Standard [Future 2017 Format] M Rayquaza and Jolteon EX

    Yea, I've been doing lots of testing recently and I've experimented without Hoopas and using Winnoa instead, one hoopa, two hoopa, two floats, no floats... its been interesting to say the least. After seeing Pokemon Ranger released, Jolts seem even more shaky then I thought they might be before...

    Standard [Future 2017 Format] M Rayquaza and Jolteon EX

    Yea, it doesn't matter much since i don't run darkness. I've actually evolved my deck a bit since that post and it doesn't even use Zoro anymore since Raichu's have free treat and I have two stones to cover the hoopas. I've been testing Lugia EXes for attackers since I don't have the Jolt's and...

    Standard [Future 2017 Format] M Rayquaza and Jolteon EX

    I was thinking the exact same as you, I've been playing a speed Ray deck for about a year now in expanded and did very well but always suffered against the obvious weaknesses. With most of them rotating out already drooling over the anticipation of what a Standard Ray deck could do. I'll show...
