    SM7a 'Fairy Rise' Announced!

    Fun fact: with the release of this Mimikyu, each of the original Totem Pokémon from Sun and Moon has been properly represented as a GX (I say properly since Team Rocket's Mimikyu doesn't count).

    Ghetsis, Hex Maniac, and More Banned from Expanded Format!

    Dang, I was considering adding Hex to improve my ZoroBees matchup against Special Energy walls, but now I'm gonna have to come up with another method. SUM Alolan Muk takes care of that problem without affecting my guys too much. Bumping up the Special Charge count to 2 or 3 is probably a safe...

    Expanded Coconut Purgatory (Alolan Exeggutor FLI)

    This is just a fun little deck I came up with between deliveries while at work. Probably not 100% competitive, but still entertaining to use. ****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ****** ##Pokémon - 13 * 2 Shaymin-EX ROS 77 * 1 Sudowoodo GRI 66 * 3 Exeggcute PLF 4 * 1 Exeggcute UPR 1 * 4...

    'Mega Charizard X vs. Mega Blastoise Battle Arena Decks' Announced!

    I think what they meant was, how come there are not multiple copies of each like most competitive decks? Having only one invites the possibility of one or both being prized, which shuts down the whole strategy of the deck.

    PTCGO League Cup Promos

    I know standard league promos can be had online by getting certain code cards, but not all leagues have them.

    Discussion Excellent cards that people did not think would be good

    It's no Greninja BREAK, but it certainly is a very annoying deck if played correctly. The only real problem it suffers from is being a Stage 2 deck in a Buzzwole metagame; once rotation takes away some of Buzz's toys (Regirock, Strong Energy, etc.), it might become a bit better.

    General Where do you come from?

    I'm the great Pacific Northwest, Seattle-Tacoma area, specifically. Just for fun, try to pronounce the following correctly, and I'll give you a somewhat mossy piece of cedar with your name scratched into it as an award: Puyallup Issaquah Spokane Nisqually Takhlahk

    I have decided to start getting a foothold into Expanded. Only so that I can go to more tourneys where I'm not guaranteed to get shrek'd.

    Help How useful is my Umbreon GX?

    Most Darkness-based decks can take on Malamar due to the fact that any Darkness card that can hit 90 or harder (60 or or harder with a Band) can OHKO DW-Necrozma, which if KO'd robs your opponent of some serious momentum. If you want to root out Malamar so you can take out one of (Ultra)...

    Help How useful is my Umbreon GX?

    It basically can't get anywhere with Buzzwole calling the shots. Bench damage is nice, but Buzzwole can do the same amount of damage most of the time on only a single energy, plus it's weak to Buzz.

    SM7 'Celestial Storm' Revealed!

    What about rotation? (will kill Mew in standard)

    Discussion Excellent cards that people did not think would be good

    Yeah, sometimes it does feel like the counter comes out before the thing it's supposed to counter does.

    Discussion Excellent cards that people did not think would be good

    I've been thinking about this for a while: what are some examples of cards that were thought to be mediocre at best to just plain bad at worst (or even cards that just flew under the radar) when they were first revealed that went on to be metagame-definers, or at least extremely good techs or...

    Help Beginning VCG player

    Go to Poni Grove, find a rustling bush, save next to it, then trigger encounters until you get a Chansey. Then, SOS chain for Chanseys. That's how you get levels. For EVs, first get the six bands (Weight, Bracer, Belt, Lens, Band, and Anklet) from the Battle Royale Dome, then go out and find...

    North American and European Regionals Locations and Dates Announced!

    Then Malamar came along and beat Buzzwole with its summons Necrozma and Ultra Necrozma. What's next? Something dumb that does more damage if your opponent has a lot of energy in the discard? Something with a GX attack that KO's attempted switch-outs? Or even something that defeats the whole...

    Discussion Tapu Lele+Brigette combo Substitute

    At casual levels, not really. At World's levels, it's like the difference between a beachfront vacation home in Hawaii and a rundown back-alley shack in Gary, Indiana, at least as far as early-game acceleration and bench-filling is concerned. Still, depending on the deck, it's better than...

    Discussion Why Ultra Necrozma-GX over Necrozma-GX?

    I've always felt like that Metal energy is a bit finicky, since if it's discarded or prized, since it can be hard or even impossible to reclaim if discarded (e.g. Team Flare Grunt). Regular Necrozma can just vacuum up Psychic energies all day without a care as long as you have enough Malamars...
