    skyla, catcher, candy and more

    Skyla seems pretty awesome, but any comparisons with Cyrus are overdrawn IMO. The reason: Card advantage. Skyla doesn‘t provide the card advantage Cyrus did, and most good Supporters still do. Not to mention the chaining options. I am very curious to see if decks will adapt to include a...

    How much do you care about famous/top players in the pokemon card game?

    I think it‘s a good thing that the competitive pokemon scene has a face. When playing against well-known players, however, I couldn‘t care less. They are still playing the same game as I am, which means I could beat them. Of course, they are above average in terms of play skill, but doing...

    Returning Player Needs Some Help

    Don‘t worry about those Japanese decks and how they compare to the current meta, Japan is already playing BW-on while we still have the HGSS block. But to answer your other questions, Empoleon/Accelgor is probably designed to trade off incredibly favorably against EX‘s by hitting them with...

    Art Gallery Avatars and Art v.2. [Xerneas and Yveltal Avatars Added in Latest Post]

    RE: Avatars and Art v.2. Read the rules. Giratina-A v.4, Thundurus, Landorus, Tornadus Sacred Beasts added. Using the Murkrow. It's great.

    Lonely Bone - Cubone (includes cards from DS)

    I'd take the Dual Balls out for Ultra Balls, which gives you another way get Marowaks and useless First Tickets into the discard. Ultra Ball can also search for Marowaks to discard. I think a Defender or two would also help in this kind of deck, just so you can soak up more damage. -4 Dual Ball...

    Wait what? (Plusle/Minun/Insanity)

    That sounds pretty good, the idea behind not running it was that retreat costs of one made additional energies about equal to skyarrows. With Mewtwo thrown in, I suppose I might as well...

    Wait what? (Plusle/Minun/Insanity)

    Random Receiver is awful when you have four non-draw supporters. I don‘t think a fourth Plusle is necessary, because any beyond the first are usually redundant. I might try it though, but I‘ll definitely stick to Pokegears to get my supporters. FYI people, Random Receiver is not strictly...

    Wait what? (Plusle/Minun/Insanity)

    This is an utterly insane deck I built to show the dark, sadistic side of Plusle and Minun and make clear how everything becomes good when you add Durant‘s trainer line. The game plan is to flood the board with damage thanks to Minun, while depriving your opponent of whatever they need to KO the...

    Writing Nightmare

    RE: Nightmare [PG] - Chapter 15 up! I think you have found a very interesting and original way of integrating Pokemon in a working society (as opposed to the dysfunctional mess presented by Nintendo). Your writing style and plot are quite pleasant, but I do wonder whether introducing so many...

    The last few months of HGSS-On

    Since Dutch nats has already happened, and I‘m not going to Worlds this year, I‘m going to enjoy ridiculous Yanmega toolboxes, Jirachi acceleration and Mew Prime at League for the next few months.

    What Japanese Deck is going to be the play if the rotation is BW-ON

    The best thing about Darkrai/Hydreigon is that Blend Energy and the energy moving ability allow it to run a lot of different techs.

    Too many energy types ruin the game?

    Your point about not pulling what you want is quite absurd. If there are more types, each of those types will simply have less cards. After all, there is only a limited number of Pokemon they can make these cards for.

    roselia donk (roselia/hitmonlee)

    But donking small basics and laughing cruelly is the whole point of this deck. The concept may be inherently flawed, but the point of the Deck Garage is to make decks work as well as possible for what they are. Otherwise, every thread could be ended with "Play Zekeels/CMT/Darkrai/Fighting/whatever".

    Ice Hammer (Kyurem EX)

    I‘d take out a single Kyurem EX for a Tornadus or a regular Kyurem, just so you can always use seven prizes‘ worth of attackers.

    quad virizion (virizion deck)

    Don‘t bother teching against Reshiphlosion/Entei, they are difficult matchups anyway, and teching messes with the consistency, which is one of the main reasons to run a quad deck in the first place.

    roselia donk (roselia/hitmonlee)

    I would run a lower Energy count. If you‘re looking to play this as a dedicated donk deck, consider Energy Search. When in your hand, it works like an energy, but it thins your deck by one card. This gives you a better chance of drawing what you need for the donk. Adding a second Fliptini might...

    Fast & furious: A fun new rogue deck (accelgor + starmie)

    RE: Fast & furious: A fun new rogue deck I‘d keep one Tyrogue and take the other out. Accelgor‘s Acid Spray attack is a pretty powerful effect too, you might want to capitalize on that by running Crushing Hammer and/or Lost Remover. It will open up a new possible game plan for the deck...

    Tetrakion + GroudonEX

    Actually, Crushing Hammer is still great because Dark Patch is single use and Eelekrik can‘t do anything about Crushing Hammer combined with smart Catchering.

    Victini

    Running Cinccino seems unnecessary. I‘d go with a pokemon line like this: 4 Victini 2-2 Ninetales 2 Tornadus EX 1 Mewtwo EX 2 Tornadus 1 Shaymin Also needs Exp. Share to chain Victinis. In terms of speed, this seems to be on par with Darkrai/Tornadus, but it‘s a lot more fragile. It...
