    Help Retreat Question

    Also to add on to what @Frosstoise said, in addition to abilities, cards like Switch and Escape Rope can switch out your active without using your once-per-turn retreat. The extra abilities and cards can usually bypass things like asleep and paralyze, or an effect of the opponent's attack...

    Discussion How fast can you deck out?

    Not really sure why you would want to draw through your whole deck, but I thought I would point out two things. -You have to discard something with these cards so you can't use what you discarded to discard other cards. Minor point, but might skew your numbers. -Ultra/Master ball. You do NOT...

    Help How to make a League better?

    Mostly just common sense things can make a big difference. - Be on time consistently. You're the professor and should be there to open and close, except for the odd day where you're sick/on vacation and need someone to cover. -Have a reliable backup person or co-professor. (In case you're...

    Expanded I haven't posted in Pokebeach in roughly 5 years, but i need help with Seismitoad EX Control

    Looks decent, but you have lots of 1-ofs, but only two VS seeker. Up that VS Seeker count to 4. Throw in a couple level balls since your support Pokémon can all be grabbed with it. Also, 5 stadiums is too many most decks run 2-4. I also noticed you have no switching ability like Olympia, Escape...

    Discussion Expanded PTCGO Tournaments

    I'd enjoy playing an expanded tournament for variety. I prefer standard normally, but part of that is my unfamiliarity with expanded which this would fix. I think it would be cool to rotate each month, or even just run a quarterly/semi-annual expanded tournament in place of the standard one for...

    Ruling Mew EX Question

    Yes, but you can only copy the attacks of the opponent's active Pokémon for one dark energy. As with any attack you copy using versatile, you would read the text on that attack as if it were printed on your Mew. Foul Play would not allow you to copy any benched Pokémon's attacks. The game logic...

    Discussion Cards Rotating Out

    If they give the Battle Arena special prints an XY number then it would be reasonable to rotate it out if the rotation became SM on and they dropped the XY promos. Not saying it would. Personally I think Gen on is more likely this year. Maybe they'll even keep some XY promos in rotation once...

    Discussion The return of Fliptini

    The card says "Once during your turn" which limits it to your turn only. This is similarly worded to other "Once during your turn" like Octillary. You aren't allowed to draw up to five on your opponents turn, which could be a thing if you get hit with N or something. Also, just in case anyone...

    Expanded Dark deck help please

    With 2 Lysandre/4 Seeker and 4 lasers you should be able to either switch out their active and KO another, or try to sleep their attacker which will make them miss the attack that blocks basics, allowing you to KO it. I'm not sure that Jolteon EX (The only one I know of with the attack to block...

    Standard Mega Scizor EX Deck Help

    Have you thought about adding in Skyla? She can help grab whatever crucial piece you are missing, Mega Turbo for the acceleration, Spirit Link for going Mega, the Ultra Ball for the last Pokémon you're missing. Not something you would add four of, but definitely worth at least 1 of in this type...

    Expanded Dark deck help please

    I would consider dropping the Eevee/Umbreon. Without them you're still running 9 Basics which is more than you'll ever use in a game, but still enough to not mulligan often. Running a 1-1 line, which while it can evolve instantly, is really weak if that 1 Umbreon is prized. (The other option...

    Well the physical packs all have codes inside them for in-game packs so you're getting both anyway.

    Expanded Dark deck help please

    If that's one of your only Unlimited cards I'd say drop it for N that way you can call the deck Expanded, but if you are playing Unlimited then that would probably be better than N in most mid-late game situations. You do give up the hand disruption on the opponent though. That said, since you...
