    Standard Budget Busters: Alolan Ninetales (CEC)

    I tried to build ninetales and so far I'm underwhelmed. Getting 9 tools in for the rotoms was already a two turn process at best, so getting any more significant damage with ninetales doesn't happen until 3 turns into the game, add to that the fact that it has to evolve and therefore wastes deck...

    Standard Terrydactyland (FossilBox)

    I'm not sure if we'll be getting a reprint of escape board, so jirachi may survive rotation in name only. Have you considered a greens engine? Groudon CEC might work for a starter with greens, you can grab spinner and get a couple fighting energy on the board. Other new cards to consider...

    Standard Oddly effective deck full of scrubs (mew UNB, persian UNB, Espurr UNB, Phione CEC)

    Guzma and hala seems like a perfect fit here, but I keep feeling like it costs too much and you can end up with a tiny hand. Rather than giratina I'm considering Roxie and weezing, to both grow the hand and drop a few extra damage counters. Also I think Rosa should be in, along with a few fire...

    Standard Oddly effective deck full of scrubs (mew UNB, persian UNB, Espurr UNB, Phione CEC)

    So far I've only faced one, but I won because mallow and lana works in the wrong direction, and they would need switch. If they did switch to prepare for a mallow and lana next turn, I played phione. I'll let you know how future matchups go... I'm sure there will be some that aren't winnable...

    Standard Will's Xatu

    The giratina would pretty much auto win blowns/ninetools/raichu/excadrill etc. assuming you get up both malamar, but that's not a sure thing. Maybe instead of any of my other suggestions, plus 1 the mally line. Then you win against both TTGXs and one prizers, though the mally mirror would be...

    Standard Will's Xatu

    This is an awesome deck idea, combining xatu/will with shrine for GX and tags for non-GX. However, you need Will pretty desperately and have no onboard draw to dig for it... I think jirachi needs to be here, or possibly zebstrika. I'd also consider less overall energy, some recycle energy, and...

    Standard Giovanni's exile/ jessie and james mill

    I'd look at the new set for some support. You probably won't get Giovanni every turn, so a clefairy doll can take a hit and deny a prize while you attach to rhydon, and you can play belelba and brycen man to mill three (mills yourself too, so you might want some lana's fishing rods to get back...

    Discussion Budget Solutions to Dedenne GX?

    We've already had blacephalon, buzzmosa and sabletar that could bypass the double mismagius engine. You just don't knock out the second one. Unless people are going to pull out the trio as a surprise.

    Standard Sniping Breloom

    Disclaimer, I haven't played breloom or venomoth... but I don't understand why it is necessary to have froslass at all. Is reshi a particularly tough matchup? At this point it isn't bdif, it is just one of many tag teams you can't ohko, along with lucario and melmetal, tinachomp, marchamp...

    Discussion Budget Solutions to Dedenne GX?

    There are three or four decks around that use a green's exploration engine. Definitely a budget option, though mainly this is for tag team decks. Upping supporter counts works sometimes as well, if there are enough supporters that do roughly what you want.

    Standard Weezing/Welder

    I tried to build a weezing deck with mally when rotation happened, and I thought it would be amazing because espurr, but in actuality mally is already a slow deck and adding second stage 1 made it too slow. By the way, because weezing eats mew for breakfast you should be able to replace frost...

    Alt. Format Red&Blue toolbox?

    Put an island challenge amulet and rainbow energy (along with one more energy) on a scizor GX and it swings for 160, which takes out Gardy. With stadium and behind on prizes it's 200, which is decent against non-tag team GXs. Banette GX with rainbow energy (shady move, then attack) takes out...

    Standard Tornadus spread

    Needs a sixth (or rather fifth because the GX should be your last) attacker to force a seven prize game. Baby turtonator could work. Maybe two in case an attacker is prized. An alternative would be babe lele for spread math fixing, but you'd need a fairy energy also.

    Standard Lost March Post Rotation - No Natu

    It looks fairly consistent... are you whiffing Pokemon or energy? Falling short of knockouts? Not really consistency related, but you might try a Latios GX and a rainbow energy to shut down deoxyon in malamar and mew box. You'd want to only use it if you suspect that's their game plan. Also...

    Standard Pest Control (Shedinja/Ninjask LOT, Grovyle LOT, Lapras UNM)

    Depends on the build I guess. I'm not sure for the way you've rebuilt it, but I don't actually need very many cards, and they are almost all recyclable (you have to minimize playing balls and comms, once you don't absolutely need them). I have a couple grovyle out, maybe a mew, maybe a lapras, a...

    Standard Pest Control (Shedinja/Ninjask LOT, Grovyle LOT, Lapras UNM)

    Mew also blocks dragonadel, which means prizing a one-of is auto loss against some mew boxes, and some blacephalons, and possible loss to pikarom (turn 1 zapdos, 2 custom catcher plays, a tag bolt, 2 labs). Espurr is probably irrelevant, unless they do something wacky like set up a bench of...

    Standard Pest Control (Shedinja/Ninjask LOT, Grovyle LOT, Lapras UNM)

    I haven't yet decided what to cut for sol and luna. I did take out a brock for a second tate because it can keep you from decking out in addition to getting out of paralysis/sleep. By the way the lapras is actually more important for speeding up your win condition than stamp proofing, I realize...
