    Alt. Format Post Rotation Dragonite-GX (Help Needed)

    There's literally zero reasons not to use it. Attaching it to Nite still counts as (L), even if he doesn't have 3 stage2 Pokémon, maintaining his 2HKO strategy. If he does get 3 Nite on the field (doable, because he's stalling with Max Potion), double profit.

    Alt. Format Post Rotation Dragonite-GX (Help Needed)

    I'm not sure you need 4 Ultra Ball AND 4 Mysterious Treasure. You don't run Dragonair, yet you only have 3 Rare Candy. That's not gonna end well. For some stability, I'd change the following: -1 Alolan Vulpix -3 Ultra Ball -1 Professor Kukui -2 Lightning Energy +1 Latios Prism Star +1...

    Discussion Forbidden Light Rogues

    Betting hard on Alolan Marowak. Some neat tricks in there, simple and intuitive gameplan. Metal Empoleon could also be interesting, with Magearna EX and Registeel support, maybe Kartana GX thrown into the mix for disruption/GX attack access.

    Standard Alolan Box (budget, no T-Lele)

    Alolan Vulpix is the ideal starter, especially going second (going first, I might prefer Cubone, depending on initial setup), adds up naturally to Wak Attack (love saying that) and evens out the number of Tales evolutions (not willing to cut Tales right now). I also thought 2 Field Blower were...

    Standard Goomy/Kartana

    Oh, crap...I just noticed you don't run Guzma. Any plans of adding it? At least a single copy for emergency issues or a key KO that might slip out of range?

    Standard Goomy/Kartana

    I'm going to second Dhelmise here, but only a single copy. One anchor is enough to work in conjunction with either Beast Energy/Choice Band (and not both at the same time) securing 2-HKOs throughout this 210hp meta and synergizes with Mysterious Treasure, if you decide you want it back. Also, I...

    Standard Alolan Box (budget, no T-Lele)

    Thank you for the input, guys. Would you mind elaborating on why the 1-1 drop on Marowak? Allow me to reinforce its importance to the deck, as a counterpoint: - it is essentially the reason for the entire deck being Alolan. Relying more on Ninetales would make it so that it'd just be...

    Standard Alolan Box (budget, no T-Lele)

    Pokémon: 20 3-3 Alolan Marowak (main attacker / energizer) 3-2 Alolan Ninetales / 1 Alolan Ninetales GX (secondary attacker / set-up / wall) 2-2 Alolan Sandslash (draw support) 2-2 Alolan Muk (ability lock) Trainer: 30 4 Cynthia 3 Prof. Sycamore 3 N 3 Guzma 3 Ultra Ball 3 Evosoda 2 Field...

    Discussion Metagross GX

    Dialga: Cute, but not very good. Metagross already struggles to hit field stability and key numbers (a copy of Kukui and Dhelmise go a long way here), you're better off with Dusk Mane as your backup. As for mill decks, Sylveon stands little chance as it is. Hoopa can be dealt with through...

    Standard SUM-on Mewtwo-GX Deck

    -1-1 Malamar -1 Gladion -1 Pokémon Fan Club -2 Ultra Ball -1 Altar of the Moone +1 Marshadow GX +1 Cosmog +1 Guzma +2 Nest Ball +1 Rare Candy +1 Rescue Stretcher -------- Shining Mew and Lunala * are your energy management engine. Malamar doesn't fit your overall strategy, since you only need...

    Help Trying to Make Dusk Mane work.

    This can easily turn into a circular argument, if personal experience is to be accounted for. But, sticking to the facts, Vikabulu is more consistent in that getting energy out of the deck every turn thins it out, making it significantly easier to hit whatever you need (including Choice Band...

    Help Trying to Make Dusk Mane work.

    You want to run Dusk Mane, but are you focused on the Zone variant or just want to run DM? I'm still not sure Zone is the best way to go, since you can just play VikaBulu, as mentioned, or a Solgaleo-GX variant accelerating with Sol Burst GX which is faster, bulkier (especially with Max Potion)...

    Help Leafeon GX Deck Idea

    I'm running Dawn Wings/Hypno BKT as a fun hax engine to support Leafeon's tankiness and it works. You just have to be on the lookout for DW's weakness to (D), which is crippling in the current meta. Otherwise, I think it works better than attacking Leafeon (w/Lurantis and Turtonator).

    Standard Dragonite-GX

    Your list is probably already outdated due to Lance Prism Star. I also feel Zinnia might be good in there to help with energizing a second attacker. With that said, I think you might wanna bump Professor's Letter up a little. Only 2 W and 1 Letter might be difficult to prepare Dragonite. Since...

    Standard Leafeon/Lurantis

    -1 Fomantis/Lurantis -1 Pal Pad -1 Acerola -2 Professor Sycamore +1 Remoraid/Octillery +1 Turtonator GX +1 N +2 Hala Benching 4 Lurantis takes up a lot of room for board development. Realistically, you're benching 3 every game. You desperately need draw power without relying on Supporters. A...

    Discussion Local Meta: Mega Mewtwo

    Oh, sorry. You asked if there was the possibility of running MM2 without including Garbodor in the OP, I thought you wanted ideas diverting from that. My bad.

    Discussion Local Meta: Mega Mewtwo

    The only possible way to run MM2 I can imagine without simply turning it into Gardevoir GX is through cheat-rushing it with Leafeon GX and Vikavolt. Your gameplan would be to start Leafeon GX for t2 Grand Bloom, so you can evolve M2 EX without Spirit Links and a Grubbin into Charjabug to power...

    Standard Leafeon-GX/Lurantis

    Hey, everybody. Here to share and collect opinions/suggestions on a RL deck I setup and haven't heard much about so far. This is a more offensive approach to Leafeon-GX, which I consider cleaner and faster than the Decidueye variant, trading an Espeon EX tech for a Turtonator-GX tech to counter...

    Standard CFTC Solgaleo GX/Rayquaza

    I'm also iffy on Order Pads, but the nature of the list (more on that below) supports its use. This list is CFTC (essentially, a budget list), so Lele and Brigette won't make the cut. Hence why Nest Ball. And why Order Pads might make sense. Baby Solgaleo reduces the amount of turns necessary...
