Okay everyone. Imagine Tapu Lele GX. Now imagine 500 of them. Now imagine Kirby sucking up 500 Tapu Lele GX at once. Kirby is us. Embrace the Lele.

I'm mostly basing those numbers off of Japanese Ray/Zeraora GX lists. They all seem very settled on 4 Cynthia, 3 Lillie (3 Lillie because of 4 Ultra Ball 4 Mysterious Treasure), 2 Sightseer, 1 T&L, 3 Rescue Stretchers and 2 Pal Pads. I haven't seen a single list deviate from those numbers yet...

I'm only worried about Tapu Koko Promo because of Stakataka GX making it possible to do actually 0 damage fairly easily, but I do think that mixing it with Necrozma + Lele package is a great idea. I think the Necrozma + Lele combo is kind of a good idea in any deck that can load the energy on...

These are all very relevant concerns - I was also worried about the mill 3 when I looked at the deck on paper - but it's also the reason why most Ray decks run 3 copies of Rescue Stretcher and 2 copies of Pal Pad so that you can mill freely without drying out your resources. It's also why the...

Also, with the translation update, Mimikyu GX is actually servicable now. 30 per 10 is significantly better than 10 per 10. It's a shame that most of its good partners are Stage 2s like Decidueye GX and Greninja GX If i'm not mistaken, Promo cards like when N got a new full art are labeled as...

Field blower is only prominent right now because Garbotoxin is still a thing in this rotation. It's not a thing anymore post rotation, and I don't see people play more than 2 field blowers in decks for post rotation (in Japan anyway). Most decks go for 1 or 0, and as far as I'm concerned, 2...

Having watched Japanese duels of Rayquaza GX/Zeraora GX, I can confidently say that's the best build for Ray, and it DOES work fairly well. The spine of every Rayquaza GX deck in Japan is 4 Ray, 2 Zeraora GX, 2 Shuckle, and 1 Latias Prism Star. I also saw a variation that runs 2 copies of the...

Zoroark GX combined with the upcoming Magcargo non-GX and Magcargo GX seems like a fairly solid idea right now. Not necessarily a "Tier 1" idea, but it has value. Magcargo GX gives you access to OHKOs, and the non-GX Magcargo has value for the abilities of both Zoroark GX and Magcargo GX. I...

To be honest with you, Silvally GX with Psychic Memory. Sylveon GX can search out everything you need to get that set up. The Silvally GX, the Memory, and the energy to do so. The 110 base HP of Type: Null also helps it survive a jet punch despite its weakness. Yes, Silvally GX also gets...

Beast Ring actually doesn't give the deck that much value. The main function of it is to guarantee finding your Metal Energy, but if you're waiting for your opponent to take 2 to 3 prizes before you get Metal Energy in play, then you're probably not winning that game. I say this because having...

Not a fan of the Fairy Alolan Ninetales at all, really. The item search on ability is the best part about it. The GX attack is fairly bad when most of the relevant Ultra Beasts are less than 200 HP, Nagandel GX being the tankiest one, and most decks post rotation can OHKO Ultra Beasts without...

Hello all. Let me start by dropping the list Pokemon x17 Sylveon GX x3 Eevee x4 Silvally GX x3 Type Null x4 Tapu Lele GX x3 Supporter x14 Cynthia x4 Sightseer x4 Guzma x3 Pokemon Fanclub x2 Acerola x1 Item x17 Ultra Ball x4 Nest Ball x4 Psychic Memory x3 Fighting Memory x2 Fire Memory x2...

I've actually been trying to find an optimal partner for Silvally GX since I feel that it's an attacker that has potential in the upcoming format. When you look at two of the BDIF candidates right now, Rayquaza and Nagandel/Stakataka, it would be incredibly favorable to play something like, oh...

As far as revising this deck is concerned, it might make more sense for me to swap out the 1 copy of Lady for 1 copy of Lillie, but I value hard searching a lot more than draw power post rotation because of the things you mentioned. Cynthia & Sightseer are a lot weaker than Sycamore & N, and...

Dark Espeon, I never take the things you say as criticism. You're one of my favorite people to go back and forth with on these forums because you don't seem to ever take things personally, and having a discussion with someone who has a different opinion always provides more insight. I have...

I disagree with just about everything you said, and I think we're going to always be disagreeing with one another at least on this list, which is fine. This kind of discussion is the discussion we need for people to see both sides of the picture. Gardevoir/Sylveon can be set up consistently...

I think somewhere through the history of this thread I mentioned that Pokemon Fan Club is a good idea because you can get 2 Inkays out to set up for 2 Malamars, but I don't think I actually made a list around it. This would be a deck where I would want 2 copies of Pokemon Fan Club, because you...

Running Silvally GX has some value, but it also removes some value as well. You get free retreat for Basics, but that means your Silvally GXs can still get Guzma'd into the active and force you to get stuck. It also means that when you put Silvally GX into the active to attack and accelerate...

Rayquaza/Zeraora IMO is the best pairing. Two basics, free retreat, and instant electric energy acceleration with Zeraora's GX attack to 150 damage, ignoring attach for turns, Rayquaza's own ability, and things like Latias Prism Star. You add attach for turn and a choice band and you're hitting...

4 Judge seems pretty overkill to me, especially because you aren't running Zoroark GX. Judge is somewhat of a tricky card IMO since it depends completely on timing and educated guesses. Judge is fantastic when you'll be using Magical Ribbon with Sylveon GX anyway, but it's not so hot when...
