    Standard Help/Advice on my Trevenant Ex Deck build

    AO will be in the current rotation till this season ends for sure, so you're looking at September would be the earliest it rotates, assuming it's not reprinted as a promo or something. The card isn't too expensive and would still be playable in expanded so if you thing it would help I say try...

    Ruling Primal Groudon "Barrier" and Escape Rope.

    Escape rope does target the active. Also, just as an FYI it's typically not the best to resurrect a two year old thread. If you have a question about this start a new one. FTWPokeDad is/was on the ruling staff so he would know. If you want to know where he got his information here is the...

    Standard Lycan Libre (Lycanroc GX/Lucario, Future Deck)

    Do you have VS Seeker and Sycamore? They would be better draw support. Hau is typically considered weak when it comes to draw. If you have a VS Seeker I would throw in a 1-of Lysandre just in case you get ability locked.

    Standard Solgaleo/Lurantis Deck (My first)

    lol that makes more sense! That makes Physic your main attackers I assume. I might consider increasing the [P] energy and dropping a couple [M] energy. With the Rainbow and Professor's letter you should be able to find the metal when you need it, but Lunala GX's ability only works with [P] so...

    Standard Solgaleo/Lurantis Deck (My first)

    Drop float stone. They aren't needed since you have Solgaleo GX, or drop the Solgaleo line and keep the float stones. If you do that you would have space to increase the Lurantis or Espeon line also since you don't need rare candy. Running three types of Pokémon can make for a difficult time if...

    Standard Solgaleo/Lurantis Deck (My first)

    You are going to want some more draw cards most likely. So far you only have 1 Kukui and 2 N. I'd recommend adding in some Professor Sycamore, Shauna, or Professor Birch, along with another N. Sycamore is typically considered better than Birch/Shauna in most decks, but discarding cards tends to...

    Standard Help/Advice on my Trevenant Ex Deck build

    Max elixir let's you get one you haven't drawn yet attached. Something that might be helpful, but if you can consistently get the Dragonair's effect off each game then the probably won't be necessary if you have enough energy in hand for that.

    Lol congrats! Just FYI those are tradable packs since you won them. That Umbreon is worth several packs since it's the fancy print. Not sure how many off hand, but if you're not going to use it then it's worth trading away. An easy way to tell what's tradable and not is the number and if it's...

    Ruling Rainbow Energy Legality

    I can't make out the text on the card, but if the name and text are the same then yes, typically it's allowed to be used.

    Standard Help/Advice on my Trevenant Ex Deck build

    Ideally you want to have a couple powered up so you are ready to go when one gets knocked out. Max Elixir can help power up basics by letting you attach extra energy, which can be helpful. Something to experiment with. It's really powerful in some decks, and a waste of space in others.

    Help Espeon EX devolve attack on Talonflame

    No problem. Minor clarification I thought of, Talonflame is not an evolved Pokémon when you start with it by using it's ability. It is an evolved Pokémon when it evolves from it's basic, Fletchling, via rare candy, or it's stage one, Flectchinder. The Break is always an evolved Pokémon. Since...

    Help Espeon EX devolve attack on Talonflame

    Nope you would not put the card into your hand. "Evolved Pokémon" are ones that have actually evolved. (Gone from basic to stage 1 or 2, break, or mega) "Evolution Pokémon" are ones that are not basic. So Miraculous shine effects evolved Pokémon, which Talonflame is not. However, Glaceon EX's...

    Pokémon TCG Online Trade Thread

    If you are looking to give them away you could do a raffle or a quiz. On another forum awhile ago, I participated in a game where the person would ask a question then every 10 minutes he would give a clue, and people could make new guesses after each clue until someone won. (The question was...

    Yeah, to add on to Otaku with the bundles, sometimes there are certain promos that are only available through them. Like there's the Greninja that does 20 to all opposing Pokémon, it's an XY promo card. I believe you could only get that when it was available for coins as a bundle. Contrast that...

    Yes, anything bought with real money is tradable. The only things that aren't tradable are the freebies. You'd be surprised what decks can win one of the in-game tournaments. They are usually eight players best of 1, three rounds so if you win they take about an hour, maybe a little more. If...

    PTCGO New trainer here!

    Ah yeah, probably should have brought that up. Many people don't open the tradable packs AT ALL and save them exclusively as currency. Personally, I open them for the first couple weeks then save them. That way I get a good pool of cards from the set, then start saving them for trading. The...

    Nice. lol. Yeah the battle arena decks are great. I don't think the oldest one has online codes (Xerneas/Yvetal I believe), but the cards are still good if you play the physical card game. The second one (Mewtwo/Darkrai) does have an online code if I recall. The third and newest, Keldio/Ray has...

    PTCGO New trainer here!

    yeah those aren't as difficult to get or trade for. Also, if you are into spending money on the physical card game, the Keldio/Rayquaza Battle Arena deck gives you two 60 card expanded decks and a code card to get all those cards online! Many of the trainers are still standard legal, lots of...

    Lol yeah that ever elusive Shaymin. I was lucky, I bought a booster box like a year ago and pulled two in the box, and then really lucked out and got three with my online codes. (two from that box, then a third from a random pack code I opened later) Also, with the coins you earn in game, you...

    As far as I know yes, or you can trade for them. So if you get a tradable EX that you don't want, you can probably trade it for a few packs. I might have missed a way to get them, but I'm sure someone will correct me if I did. :) Oh I guess you can buy codes from some websites, but I've never...
