I personally still can't get this deck to run either. It requires too many pieces and honestly it needs a different way to get going other than Malamar. This idea might sound disgusting, but I'm starting to think that the New Solgaleo GX is a good partner for UNGX for the energy acceleration...

It's up to you really. I don't think disruption Sylveon has much value post rotation, personally. It loses some good cards, and there's a lot of Pokemon who can play actively out of the discard pile when it comes to getting energy or accelerating energy. I think disruption Sylveon is an...

I'd opt for at least 2 Tapu Lele GX in a list of your structure. You're running a very wide spread of Supporters, and in my own playtesting, I almost always use 2 Tapu Lele GX throughout the game, and I do use all 3 copies that I run on occasion, partially because this deck doesn't need much on...

Hello jo94. Diantha is this deck's in-theme Puzzle of Time, It does use up your supporter for turn, but as a supporter it can be searched through Tapu Lele GX and does not need to be run at 4 copies to play 2 at a time. Diantha allows you to recover any 2 cards from the discard pile if a Fairy...

My main beef with this list is that it's grass centric but only runs 5 copies of grass energy, and only 10 energy total. You mathematically have the same damage ceiling as a 15 energy deck if you get all 5 grass energy in play, but it's mostly the hit rate of getting the energy in the first...

It's just a matter of bench space, IMO. Things like Malamar decks usually can't fit it in since you already are forced to fill 2 slots with Malamar and then at least 1 with Tapu Lele GX. UNGX in particular runs Dawn Wings Necrozma GX which takes another spot, and then you need room for 1 or 2...

I don't know why you're getting sarcastic about it. 3 copies of Switch and 3 copies of Guzma is more than enough to get Naganadel GX into the active. Everyone knows you don't want Stakataka GX in the active, but if you're going to add a 5th card that you don't want to see in the active, then...

I disagree because of Naganadel/Stakataka's win condition against Fairy. Stakataka GX needs 3 energy on it to OHKO Fairy. That means a Gardy needs, with 4 Stakataka GX in play, 4 energy and a choice band, or 5 energy to respond with an OHKO of its own. Diantha also allows Gardy to immediately...

If a Dragon type Nagandel GX is released and assuming Fairy weakness, I would definitely play a 2/2 split, because if Naganadel GX takes up a big portion of the format, then that just makes Fairy even better. I still think that Gardy/Sylveon/Zoroark isn't a deck to just be put under the rug. It...

I don't see why the new Celesteela is a "staple" in agro metal. It only works with a 6 prize total, so in terms of Naganadel GX decks, if you GX attack, you only get 1 good KO with it, and then it's just low HP prize fodder on your bench that your opponent could go for to win the game, since 3...

I've been thinking about this list for a bit today and decided that it could highly benefit from Dusk Mane Necrozma GX. Dusk Mane Necrozma GX is the perfect revenge killer in the mirror match. If your opponent gets an early 2-3 prizes on you, you can immediately accelerate one in two turns...

If you mean Magical Ribbon, then yes. I always need at least 1 Magical Ribbon per game, but since that attack happens no later than Turn 2 80% of the time, it's not a problem. As far as using the 2nd attack is concerned, it's actually really good. I usually end up Magical Ribboning for a DCE so...

The whole Ho-oh GX thing is kind of pointless, agreed, but running 2 different Stage 1 lines is not a non-option just because we no longer have Brigette. Pokemon Fan Club is no Brigette replacement, but between Pokemon Fan Club and Nest Ball, it's not that impossible to get things set up, in my...

I would personally rather run Mallow than the non-GX Magcargo. Doing so frees up your bench space and makes your Magcargo GX more consistent in set up. I would also run Zoroark GX to fill the discard pile with energy faster for Victini Prism Star as well as giving you the ability to play its...

Has Acerola been playtested in place of Max Potion? I know it takes up your supporter for turn, but it lets you keep your cards, namely your Beast Energy, and you won't be constantly sending energy to discard. Acerola also allows you to reconfigure your bench space in case you want to add or...

@osmyth You expressed interest in my Gardy list so here it is, and updated to the most recent changes. Haven't touched this thread in a while but I have made a handful of changes to the list after playtesting around 30 or so games. Pokemon x23 Gardevoir GX x3 Kirlia x2 Ralts x4 Sylveon GX x3...

I think of Cynthia as a mandatory 4 of, personally. Outside of that, I think Sophocoles, Hala, and Copycat all have situational advantages while Sightseer -should- be the go to bonus supporter if you want reliable draw power. I don't really see anyone using Tate & Liza at this point, but I...

Honestly I'm a bigger fan of Kingdra GX than Dragonite GX Dragonite GX requires mixed energy pools, and decks that roll two inventories of basic energy are inherently less consistent than single energy decks. This would also be a DCE deck as well which makes that energy pool even more awkward...

Hula Oricorio is difficult to use in this deck by virtue of this deck having 4 slots as nearly mandatory fills. 2 Malamar - for energy recycling 1 Dawn Wings Necrozma GX - for retreat switching 1 Tapu Lele GX - because you probably didn't get your T1 supporter play of choice. If you add a Hula...

I'm hoping for a Phoenix Wright edition photoshop to show up on the internet. OBJECTION! EDIT: Okay yeah, I couldn't resist.
