    Standard Umbreon-GX/Yveltal-EX

    As for the pros and cons this deck has: Pros 1. Umbreon-GX's 200 HP makes it very hard to one hit Knock Out for most decks and it also has Psychic Resistance 2. Appears to have a good Espeon-GX/Garbodor matchup (will need some more testing but it theorically does) 3. Yveltal-EX is an efficient...

    Standard Umbreon-GX/Yveltal-EX

    So this evening, I tried running an Umbreon-GX/Yveltal-EX deck at a local tournament. It was my second time playing that deck at a tournament, and the first time I had a terrible 1-4-0 score and last place. This time around though, I had adjusted it to correct some flaws and I had practiced with...

    Discussion The New "Safeguard" Abilities are Broken...

    Before rotation, Alolan Ninetales loses to many decks, such as Greninja, Vespiquen, Lurantis decks that include the Promo Lurantis and Tapu Bulu/Vikavolt. I think the problem will start to emerge after we rotate and lose some good 1 Prize attackers and Hex Maniac. Oranguru should be the...

    Standard Mega Gardevoir Deck Help

    It seems that you are talking of Expanded Mega Gardevoir. I can provide a list you could put together that includes Expanded cards the deck can take advantage of. Here it is: Pokémon - 17 1 Hoopa EX AOR 3 Gardevoir EX STS 2 M Gardevoir EX PCL 1 M Gardevoir EX STS 2 Spritzee XY 2 Aromatisse XY...

    Alt. Format Infinite Wonders (Gardevoir GX / Tapu Lele GX / Diancie)

    I find this to be a rather solid list. By the way, I was searching for a Gardevoir-GX decklist that would contain Max Potion and I randomly found this thread on the first page. Max Potion I believe is very underevaluated and underconsidered for this deck. Here is why: you can attach two or...

    That Marshadow card will need some testing for an Expanded Mega Gardevoir (STS) deck.

    News August's English TCG Set: 'Burning Shadows'

    True, except you can't fill a deck with Energy if it uses a Stage 2. And you don't have Scorched Earth as with Typhlosion. I think I will personally play it with 1-2 Professor's Letter (assuming they stay) and 10-12 Basic Fairy Energy. Also, the evolution line will be 4-2-4 at least and there...

    Discussion Mega Gardevoir-Brilliant Arrow

    First off, could I know the full decklist? Secondly, I have been playing Mega Gardevoir decks regularly for over 8 months now and I've begun to notice what makes the deck better and what doesn't. Mega Gardevoir is one of my current decks and I've made a decklist I plan to take to at least a...

    Standard Flareon EX (New)

    While this is certainly a way to set up without using many Item cards, I think that running 25 Energy is way excessive. Cutting roughly half of them would give you lots of space for things you need to have in order to have consistency, or to be able to have some control on the opposing side. I...

    Standard Lurantis GX/Yveltal EX

    The deck uses purely Basic Energy for two reasons: 1. It is not focused on Yveltal-EX. Lurantis-GX and Yveltal-EX are just about as important of attackers in this deck. Solar Blade deals a solid 120 damage and heals 30 damage from Lurantis-GX, which is great against Tapu Koko and Team Magma's...

    Standard Lurantis GX/Yveltal EX

    Forgot to mention it, but Double Colorless Energy is not runnable in Lurantis/Yveltal because the deck revolves around accelerating and attacking with Basic Energy, which also provides immunity to Drampa-GX's Righteous Edge and such. Therefore, there has to be Basic Energy only in the deck's...

    Standard Lurantis GX/Yveltal EX

    Thanks for the reply. The League Cup results were not great, actually. The reasons for that are that I am new to this deck (first build was made 2 days ago, same with the build I posted and used in the League Cup), that the build was not optimal, which I know because I had trouble finding...

    Standard Brilliant Arrow in Need of Sharpening

    I would suggest that you cut 2 Energy, as Mega Gardevoir decks can have trouble functioning well with such a high Energy count. Then, the Super Rod should be cut too, for you don't need that card on top of Brock's Grit in that deck. Instead, I think you should consider including one more N, one...

    Standard Lurantis GX/Yveltal EX

    This is a deck I had the idea to create, based on the two year old Mega Manectric/Yveltal deck. The strategy for this deck is to use Lurantis-GX's Flower Supply attack to power up Benched Yveltal-EX, among other Pokémon, and to perform an overall beatdown with Yveltal-EX's Evil Ball and Y...

    News Japan's SM3 Sets for the 20th Movie Feature Ho-Oh and Necrozma!

    It's OK. I have my Fairy Garden ready. However, I think there could be an Expanded (potentially rogue) deck that would consist of that Araquanid, Ariados from Ancient Origins and Dragalge from Flashfire. In that deck, the strategy would be to prevent your opponent from attaching but also from...

    Standard Mega Gardevoir STS in Guardians Rising

    As Guardians Rising added good cards to the meta, some people went and revisited Mega Gardevoir-EX. It got some new decks from this set and I decided to make a new Mega Gardevoir list of my own. I've been experimenting with the new techs and testing them. Here is my current list. Pokémon - 17 2...

    News Japan's SM3 Sets for the 20th Movie Feature Ho-Oh and Necrozma!

    Garbophobia... I tested a Mega Rayquaza deck with 16 Items and it did not work well. I have then tested a Brilliant Arrow deck that had 21 Items against Raticate/Garbodor and it was winning. I think Trainers' Mail should still be used in decks as a 1, 2 or 3-of. It sure is stressful to play...

    Discussion Are Quad Decks becoming a Problem?

    It is true that they made some rather overpowered one Energy attacks, when you combine them with the disruption cards we have in the Standard format, but I think there had to be more ways to search and draw while not using Items because of the new Garbodor. Another reason that Garbodor is messed...

    Standard Guardians Rising Garbodor/Vespiquen

    I think the Stadium of Choice for this deck is Sky Field because you need a lot of Bench Space while setting up. There also does not seem to be a better Stadium card for this deck.
