    Expanded Dogs (Lycanroc and Zoroark) with an extra dog (Ninetales)

    I would replace it. Zoroark should be hitting hard enough. I don't think you even need Alolan Vulpix. It's great in Stage 2 Standard format decks, but in a fast Stage 1 Expanded deck? It's just too slow. Expanded is a much faster format with a lot more draw support. I would consider taking the...

    Expanded Dogs (Lycanroc and Zoroark) with an extra dog (Ninetales)

    A 1-1 line of Alolan Ninetales GX sounds very inconsistent and unnecessary. Why not run Tapu Koko to spread 20 damage instead? I highly recommend keeping the Strong Energy for Lycanroc so you are able to use Dangerous Rogue, which is pretty much a guaranteed KO if your opponent has some Pokémon...

    Standard Zoroark GX/Lycanroc GX (Need opinion on tech choice)

    I do like Mew, but feel like it's use is limited in this deck because Buzzwole is the only viable Basic Pokémon it can copy the attacks of, and I'm not going to want to dedicate three Basic Energy to a 50 HP Basic so I would be limited to only copying Jet Punch which doesn't have the damage...

    Standard Zoroark GX/Lycanroc GX (Need opinion on tech choice)

    Thinking about adding either Mewtwo or Mew EX as a way to counter opposing Buzzwole GX. Which one would you add and why? What card would you remove to make room for it? Or do you think neither one is needed? ****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ****** ##Pokémon - 19 * 4 Zorua PR-SM SM83...

    Discussion Top 8 at ARG Circuit Series!

    Will do! I'm going to a League Cup this Sunday so I'm hoping to play as well as I did yesterday. :D As far as Buzzwole/Lycanroc handling upcoming Ultra Prism decks, I'll have to do some testing, but I think Leafeon GX might give it some trouble depending on what it gets paired with, because it...

    Planning on going to at least two prerelease tournaments so hopefully I pull the Lucario!

    Discussion Top 8 at ARG Circuit Series!

    Thank you! I think the only card from ULP that is worth looking at for this deck is Cynthia, and even then I don't know if it's necessary because this deck is meant to be very aggressive so most times you'd rather use Sycamore, and I really like the disruption that N provides, especially...

    Discussion Top 8 at ARG Circuit Series!

    Thanks! It was definitely a good Meta choice and I foresee this deck being viable for quite some time.

    Discussion Top 8 at ARG Circuit Series!

    I went 4-1-1 and finished Top 8 at the ARG Circuit Series here in Las Vegas today! Very proud of my deck and performance. I played Buzzwole GX/Lycanroc GX. The list I played is very consistent and there's nothing I would change. Zygarde EX was the MVP because two of the decks I played against...

    Thanks, man! Wish you were able to make it!

    Help Going to the ARG Circuit Series this weekend, having trouble deciding on deck!

    That is what I decided on! I do think the Golisopod matchup is concerning, especially the Golisopod/Garbodor version, but I think it has good matchups overall.

    SM5+ 'Ultra Force' Releasing in January!

    A Torterra that's weak to Grass. :confused:

    SM5+ 'Ultra Force' Releasing in January!

    The GX is amazing. It was used in four of the Top 8 decks at Memphis for a reason. As far as the non-GX card here, yeah it's nothing great. The first attack could maybe be nice, but way too situational. I like the art though.

    Standard Updated Xerneas Break/Silvally GX

    Yeah, as soon as I posted this list I realized that Counter Energy still has a place in this deck! I'll try your recommendation, although I am a bit wary going under 12 Basic Energy because of Max Elixir.

    Standard Updated Xerneas Break/Silvally GX

    I'm looking for feedback on my Xerneas Break/Silvally GX deck. I based my list off of Zakary Krekeler's list, but have made some significant changes. I removed the following from his list: -2 Cobalion -3 Counter Energy And I added: +1 Tapu Lele GX +1 N +2 Fighting Memory +1 Double Colorless...

    SM5+ 'Ultra Force' Releasing in January!

    Woah, this is the first time a GX has received an alternate type reprint. Did any EX receive an alternate type reprint? A Water-type Palkia GX is a lot more playable than it's Dragon-type version since Water-types have a lot more support, especially in Expanded. We can safely assume that Dialga...

    Standard Glaceon-GX/Milotic (Post SM5)

    I really like the concept! I don't see anything flawed with your list, I think any suggestion from me would just be based on preference. I would remove one Po Town for a second Brigette. Three Po Town should be fine since it's not a Stadium that'll be used/needed every game, but Brigette is...

    Help Going to the ARG Circuit Series this weekend, having trouble deciding on deck!

    As the title says, I'm going to the ARG Circuit Series tournament this Sunday here in Las Vegas (if you're going I'll see you there)! Problem is, I've been going back and forth on deciding a deck. I've been testing a lot and still don't feel like I've settled on a solid choice. The decks I've...

    News Japan's December Sets: 'Ultra Sun' and 'Ultra Moon!'

    Yeah, for sure. I mean, if someone was able to get 4 Dartrix on their bench and time their GX attack just right, they deserve to win the game, haha.

    Help Gardevoir GX in the new set?

    Very true! Although I have seen some early lists include the Prism Star Solgaleo, which is something to watch out for. I've been running the list I posted a bit online and so far a 1-1 line has been just fine. If you prize the Eevee or Sylveon you have Alolan Vulpix as a backup, which has it's...
