I decided to play my Gardevoir deck that had been winning consistently for me. The swiss rounds were all best of 1 and 26 total people. My deck struggled to get quick set ups in some matches and it cost me. It sucks being powerless against Golisopod hitting for 120 on my small basics or Ho-oh...

I've tested this deck as much as I could in the past few weeks and am 56-20 with it overall. It's very consistent but in my last loss, having only 1 Brigette in deck hurt me against Ho-oh/Kiawe as I was pressed hard to get enough Ralts on bench. Also, a 3rd Guzma might be necessary as I noticed...

im not sure how prevalent Greninja will be in the new format but as a Gardevoir user, I do not like the decks chances against that deck and feel like someone will attempt to use Greninja. Is it worth teching a copy of Giratina? Have limited time to buy one so just wondering.

I'd consider Golisopod/Garbador as a pick, however I have little experience with the deck so it's probably best not to bring it to a league cup.

As a Gardevoir player, i feel the same way about what deck to use. It's unsettling to potentially have your tournament hopes dashed because you run into the one deck that beats yours. It's almost like it's more luck of the pairings than anything else involved with the game. As a former Yugioh...

In my testing with different decks, I've seen that using Gardevoir wins more consistently than anything else. Espeon/Garb is very underwhelming and can't hit numbers. Bulu relies on item usage and ability and it's forced to discard for every knock out against Garde or else it gets knocked out...

It takes a few turns to even get the first Gardevoir out so already, you're at a disadvantage. I have lost every Metagross matchup I've played and it was never close. Out speeding Metagross just doesn't seem realistic based on what I have seen. Having a tech is the only answer it would seem...

Honestly, I don't even know what deck to play. Gardevoir is what I am currently set on but it just flat out losses to Greninja and Metagross, decks which I'm sure some person is going to use. (-_-). It's best of 1 for the swiss rounds and it's hard for me to like my chances if I encounter any of...

I believe this is the playmat that will be in the premium Shining Legends Ho Oh collection. https://i.imgur.com/qfNgJgR.jpg

Pretty sure you're joking?

Honestly, I just forfeit if I see a Metagross deck. I've lost every time I played vs one and I'm not going to play out the 1% chance that I actually beat it.

Yeah, I guess I'm just fishing for answers that aren't really there. It's like Volcanion vs Greninja. It's just a bad matchup. I'm 32-12 online with Garde and I have only 1 Lele online. (which maybe is a big reason why I get some slow starts.) I might play this at some league cups. I'm not sure...

I am using Gardevoir. :/ Yeah, good luck right?

How do you approach the Metagross matchup? As a Gardevoir user myself, I find it impossible to win that matchup.

Now that Gardevoir has won Worlds, Metagross will be THE deck post rotation now that will look to counter it, and so I need ways to beat Metagross. Is Flareon rotating out? Im 0-3 vs Metagross and it just doesn't feel too winnable of a matchup. Idk what I can do. I wish Gardevoir didn't have a...

Yeah, so the lists aren't too out of what would be expected but still nothing that would provide an answer to Metagross. Hoping to outspeed them isn't really an answer because Gardevoir is a stage 2 deck itself and isn't really a fast starter itself. Metagross will see more play and there are no...

Flareon rotates out though so it won't help me post rotation in dealing with Metagross.

Well, true but idk if he encountered any Metagross or not. Gardy struggles mightily against it. I wish I had the answers to deal with it. But from what I've heard, there weren't too many Metagross played.

Auto losing to Greninja and Metagross isn't a good thing. I'm not sure if i should play this for tournament next week. I can't beat Greninja or Metagross at all.

I suppose so. Idk, i'm really searching for some kind of answer for Metagross. Not having an answer just isn't going to cut it if I run into it when i'm trying to win a tournament. Must be something I can tech.
