    Standard Houndoom V

    Since Jirachi is going to be severely nerfed post rotation with the loss of escape board, and Heat Factory will rotate, would you consider swapping those for a 2-2 UNB Salazzle line viable? Also, swapping Fiery Flint for Guzma and Hala or UNB Volcanion?

    Alt. Format Alice in Wonderland (Bunnelby / Polteageist / Duskull / Mimikyu / Dedenne / Oricorio GX / Mr. Rime)

    How good would adding a CEC Duskull be in this deck? I think it could definitely work to mass-dump some Party Pokes T1 or whenever you run out of Polteageist.

    Alt. Format You're Going to the Shadow Realm, Jimbo [Eternatus VMAX]

    So, at the time of writing, Darkness Ablaze is still about three months out, but the Eternatus VMAX looks to be the deck to beat coming out of it. Here's a proposed list utilizing a few different tech options from prior sets. Pokemon (22): Eternatus V (3) Eternatus VMAX (3) Koffing RCL...

    Alt. Format Poison Gate (Eternatus Vmax / Crobat V / Hoopa / Absol / Galarian Zigzagoon)

    We have revealed an additional energy accelerating engine of Rose/Rose Tower. What are your thoughts on recovering energy to charge another Eternamax using this engine? I think you could easily replace the Dark city with Rose Tower since you can already enable free retreat with the energy.

    'World Down' and 'Legendary Heartbeat,' Japan's Summer Sets Introducing Amazing Rares!

    So I know everyone's talking about Eternatus or Crobat or how the meta is bad and power creeping... but can we just talk about how Galarian Weezing can get free retreat now with the special energy? I think hit-and-run style decks have a better shot at viability now.

    Second Pokemon TCG Illustration Grandprix Announced!

    All of these look so good!!! I definitely think some of these if they don't make it on a card could work as pack art, like Genesect 1 or Zacien 6, and I would definitely consider Milotc 1 or Wishiwashi 5 as a desktop wallpaper. However, for card art, my top picks would be: Genesect 2 Zacian 4...

    Standard Mad Party [Pre-Rotation]

    I'd think any deck running ADP would be more concerning, since they take 2 prizes per KO with Altered Creation. Why not 4 Mysterious Treasure, when it gives you another discard option?
  8. John InCENAroar

    Standard Green's PikaRom

    Any particular reason you don't run the full 4 Speed Energy?
  9. John InCENAroar

    Alt. Format Alice in Wonderland (Bunnelby / Polteageist / Duskull / Mimikyu / Dedenne / Oricorio GX / Mr. Rime)

    How would you go about adding some thin recovery in case you need more than 4 Polteageist/Bunnelby?

    Alt. Format (SM3 Expanded) Vikavolt V [VikaV]

    Pokemon (13): Vikavolt V (4) Trubbish NVI (2) Garbodor BKP (2) Tapu Lele GX (2) Dedenne GX (1) Tapu Koko PS (1) Ditto PS (1) Trainer (36): Guzma (2) Lysandre (1) Sycamore (3) Cynthia (2) N (1) Volkner (1) Brigitte (1) Thunder Mountain PS (1) Parallel City (2) Computer Search (1) Vs Seeker...

    'Eruption Walker' Japan's Mini-Set for April!

    Honestly the Pupitar is more exciting here. Sure, the application in standard is limited to this one and the Team Up one, but the Team Up version of TTar GX in expanded could be really fun with this.

    Alt. Format Moth Light (Centiscorch VMAX / Ninetales V / Volcanion / Jirachi)

    Would you consider a simple swap of Escape board for Scoop Up Net viable if you were to make this list post rotation?
  13. John InCENAroar

    Alt. Format (ULP-SS3) Dark Box

    NOTE: THIS LIST IS SUBJECT TO HEAVY EDITATION ONCE THE ENTIRETY OF THE AUGUST SET IS REVEALED, SINCE THERE MAY BE NEW SINGLE-PRIZE DARK TYPE POKEMON TO BETTER UTILIZE THE ENGINE. THIS ALSO PRESUMES THAT CARDS FROM THE GRIMMSNARL VMAX DECK ARE DISTRIBUTED AROUND THE RELEASE OF THE AUGUST SET, IF...

    Charizard V/VMAX and Grimmsnarl V/VMAX Revealed!

    No, presumably we get these in our August set with Centiskorch VMAX.

    Alt. Format (ULP-REC) Milotic V

    With what I can only presume to be a mostly complete set list for Rebel Crash now at my disposal, what immediately stood out to me was Milotic V, which is not only a very high-ranking pokemon for me personally, but also utilizes a novel damage-ramping mechanic, which I can't help but adore. With...

    Japan's March Set: 'Rebellion Crash,' Plus Toxtricity V, Charizard VMAX, Grimmsnarl VMAX!

    If they're pulling this new mon from the 8th Gen pool, It's gotta be either Duraludon, Falinks, or one of the fossils I think, since they're usually basics that don't evolve. I'd personally hope for either Falinks or Dracovish, since they're honestly two of my favorites from this gen, but it's...

    Standard Nidoqueen

    I would consider swapping Hau for Guzma+Hala, as it's a great way to search out all of your special energy. As @TheTempest said, add more Triple Acceleration, so you have a better chance of hitting one with those Guzma+Hala, and you can stream the crap out of attackers. It's certainly a better...

    Alt. Format Metal Blade (Zacian V / Jirachi / Galarian Perrserker / Duraludon)

    What about Lucario and Melmetal? It's got defense over ADP's offense which will mean that in a match with another Zacien, you cancel out the opposing ADP boost and still live a Zacien hit with a Frying pan. You could probably swap that pretty easy for the Solgaleo Prism, since I don't think you...

    Alt. Format Flame Ball (Cinderace / Heatran GX / Jirachi)

    Could you use Volcarona GX as additioanl aid for discarding energy? Is it worth cutting the Ninetales down to a 1-1 line or perhaps entirely for those Volc GX?
  20. John InCENAroar

    Alt. Format Forest Drummer (Rilaboom V / Rillaboom / Shaymin Prism / Jirachi)

    Would you consider Elm's Lecture to be viable as a one-off for consistent Grookey search? You say in your strategy section you need to bench at least two Grookey, and Elm's may help with that over using two net balls or just hoping for sheer luck with the top-deck
