HouchinsDJ, yes, Wonder Energy does rotate as it's Primal Clash.

This skeleton list is based on the 7 top-8 Worlds decks (across all ages), and for post-rotation. Obviously, each player has their style of play and the cards they prefer, but wanted to create a skeleton list as a starter. 4 x Ralts 3 x Kirlia 3 x Gardevoir GX 1 x Gallade - BKT-84 2 x Tapu...

The difference between the normal weeks and the Challenge is that the former is £4 (in the UK) instead of £5, you don't need a deck list and you, obviously, don't get championship points. It's the same best of 3 swiss, but no knockout at the end for the normal week. For both there is a pack for...

Thanks, will ask my League if they can do similar.

For standings you could use https://www.lysandrelabs.com/event-result/

I am wanting to canvass opinions on whether the following situation is catered for by your local League, and if not whether it should/could be. At my local League the normal weekly event is advertised on Pokemon Events, but obviously isn't a Challenge event. It is played as a tournament (so...

True, but they are both in TFK's deck (above) so it must be ok?! In seriousness, Darkrai has always evolved, and seems to manage Top 32 in most/all tournaments (a consistency advantage). What it hasn't done recently, as you say, is be right at the top (a disadvantage to winning something). I'm...

Was interesting, maybe, that 2 top-8 Seniors played Darkrai/Garbodor (Toxin), to give TD a different spin. May be played more as Hex Maniac is rotating, and a lot of decks use Abilities. http://www.pokemon.com/us/play-pokemon/internationals/2017/north-america/tcg-seniors/ The list shows 4...

It would be interesting to know, in an average game, how many times a player 'uses' Sycamore/N, i.e. how many times it gets re-used because of VS Seeker. By the sounds of it, a lot based on your findings, hence the need for Sophocles, or similar, in decks post-rotation. Are you suggesting TD...

The aforementioned recommended Team Fish Knuckles take on TD: 3 Darkrai EX 1 Darkrai GX 2 Tapu Lele GX 3 Yveltal 1-1 Garbodor (Toxin) 4 Sycamore 2 Lysandre 1 Guzma 2 N 1 Sophocles 1 Hex Maniac 4 Max Elixir 4 Ultra Ball 4 Exp Share 4 Choice Band 1 Field Blower 3 VS Seeker 4 Altar of the Moone...

So, are we saying something like: -1 Darkrai-GX -3 Fighting Fury Belt +3 Choice Band -1/2 Wish Baton +1 Exp Share -2 Super Scoop Up +1 Altar of the Moone +1 Brigette

I agree with Latte and Cobra, that Darkrai-GX will improve TD. What's difficult to understand is how all the other decks and new decks will fair. For starters though it means looking at cards that will help or hinder TD. If nothing (from TD) gets rotated and there are a stack of new helping...

Yes, have seen that. He also did one when Hypno first came out. That's what gave me the idea when Darkrai-GX was announced.

Hypno is a Stage 1. Darkrai-GX only benefits from the sleep on it's GX attack, so using sleep with Darkrai-EX is better. I prefer Hypno over Darkrai (BUS) as, if the ability is playable, then it guarantees the full damage from Darkrai-EX Dark Head. Darkrai (BUS) is less reliable as, as you say...

Thanks, assumed Oranguru would be one.

Agree that 3 Darkrai GX may be too many - bearing in mind you'd need the bench space available to receive them back from the discard. I think the counts of Wish Baton and EXP Share would be trial and error. Having Wish Baton on the active obviously means that FFB can't be there. Ideally, you'd...

Below is Tord Reklev's NAIC winning deck. If you only had, or could only afford, one Lele which other 3 cards would you play instead. 3 Drampa-GX SM2 142 3 Garbodor SM2 51 1 Garbodor BKP 57 4 Trubbish BKP 56 4 Tapu Lele-GX SM2 60 4 N FAC 105 1 Brigette BKT 134 1 Teammates PRC 141 2 Lysandre...
