    Help Is Ninetales GX Deck a Good Deck that is Better to Use than Darkrai or Volcanion?

    I dug in deep vs Gyarados to the point where he had to rely on his Lele to shield him because I didn't have enough to take it out. I only had 2 Volcanion Ex's (none with more than 1 energy) and baby Volcanion with Choice Band and energy. If I would have gotten Lysandre for his Shaymin, I woulda...

    Help Is Ninetales GX Deck a Good Deck that is Better to Use than Darkrai or Volcanion?

    If I can't improve after 400 or so games, there's just no hope. I fudging suck. I used Volcanion deck against Gyarados and lost.

    Help Is Ninetales GX Deck a Good Deck that is Better to Use than Darkrai or Volcanion?

    Idk, it's just impossible to know what a good play is in every situation. Like for when I have Lele in hand with a supporter like Sycamore, i'll just retrieve another with Lele, and dump the cards. idk. I'm just no good at critical thinking so if a game is tight, chances are I lose because I'll...

    Help I Just Can't Win Consistently With Volcanion and it's Depressing.

    I'm 8-5 with the newest Volcanion deck I made. Lost mirror match due to circumstances such as coin flip. Coin Flip determines mirror matches. He was able to go second so he was able to be one step ahead all game and I lost. He also ran Elixirs, Mails, etc so he was faster than me too. Lost to...

    News New Pokémon Center Deck Boxes, Playmats, and Sleeves!

    I wish the Berry Snorlax design was made into a playmat. That'd be awesome.

    Help Is Ninetales GX Deck a Good Deck that is Better to Use than Darkrai or Volcanion?

    I'm looking for a deck that isn't clunky and can overcome the user making misplays. I am not mentally able to think through critical situations sometimes and I tend to make mistakes. I know that to do well I have to try to perform my best but it's a frustrating issue I have. I was wondering how...

    Help I'm 0-3 so far with Darkrai and don't understand how to play it.

    It just doesn't hit numbers for knock outs, even with Choice Bands and it can draw very bad. I just bought Darkrais for the deck and now I feel awful. It's just not the fast powerful deck I thought it would be...I used the Robin Schulz deck that did well at a recent event. Really need advice...

    Standard My Volcanion deck. It seems good but struggles with consistency.

    And I lost to 2 Lycanroc decks in a row. This deck losses to a lot of stuff now. Or maybe I just suck so bad it doesn't matter. And I lost to a Metagross deck where I drew completely dead. Barely beat a Kommo-O deck. There's just no hope for this deck. Nothing I do is working.

    Not sure about 3 Lele, but definitely 2 is the goal.

    Standard My Volcanion deck. It seems good but struggles with consistency.

    A main issue I am having with the deck is dead draws and inability to finish off games. Though since adding in the Trainers Mails, the deck has become a bit faster and is allowing me to hit certain cards I need. I do realize I need a second Tapu Lele. Another issue I have is against Lapras...

    Saw a list that played 4 Float Stones. That makes a lot of sense. I had been playing 3 but upping it up isn't bad. I'm gonna stick with Volcanion. It's not as good as it once was but i think it can still be relevant somewhat. And I know there's the Starmie variant but I think a...

    Can't outspeed it if i'm limiting items in anticipation of Garbador. :/ That's the issue. I just lost to Garb because I had to play items to keep me in the game and I lost. Lucky top decks from the opponent but whatever. I feel like whatever I play will do bad. And I can't go to locals because...

    I think Volcanion can still be viable, maybe I just need to strike the right balance with being fast enough for stuff like Greninja but not too much so I can deal with Garb. It's tricky.

    Help I Just Can't Win Consistently With Volcanion and it's Depressing.

    I use basically what most lists do. All I am truly missing from mine is 1 Shaymin and that's it. I have everything else. A big issue that I am having (online) is that I am running into lots of Gyarados, Greninja, and Waterbox decks that Volcanion struggles with. I have cut down on items due to...

    Volcanion does terribly against Greninja, Gyarados, and Waterbox decks. If you're fast enough to outpace them, then maybe you'll beat them, but that also means you're playing more items. Which means Garb will be bad for you. So it's a lose-lose right now. Either way, it's tough for Volcanion and...

    Help I Just Can't Win Consistently With Volcanion and it's Depressing.

    Yeah, idk what I want to do. I just bought the cards for Volcanion too... I don't want to keep shelling out money for decks that will turn out to be not as great. Maybe that sounds dumb but i'm not made of money so i'm looking for a deck I can make, that's cheap, and will be around for years. If...

    Help I Just Can't Win Consistently With Volcanion and it's Depressing.

    Yeah, I keep running into Greninja and Gyarados online so I guess i'm just done with Volcanion. The deck is essentially dead. If you play fewer items, you're not fast enough to deal with water decks. But if you run too many items, you lose to Garb. It's not an ideal situation and I've even asked...

    Help I Just Can't Win Consistently With Volcanion and it's Depressing.

    I do play something similar to that, although I don't have Lele's just yet. People say to run Brooklet Hill over Scorched Earth and some recommend Altar of the Sunne. Idk. Brooklet Hill sounds nice but could help my opponent too, especially if they run water. A big part of my beef with the...
