    We didn't get Fast Ticket!/ Benefits of Going First

    Just something small about Fast Ticket, and personally not worth it because there's better options, but it could be used in Empoleon to decent success as Diving Draw fodder if you fail to use it first turn.

    The Penguin That Learned to Soar- Empoleon!

    I'll be honest, I completely forgot about Garchomp's second attack...my bad. And about the D-H deck, I completely agree...but that's why we have such a max-potion abusing deck, right? (Yeah yeah, tool scrapper. The list should only run 2 otherwise risking consistency). As for the RReciever...I...

    The Penguin That Learned to Soar- Empoleon!

    Very Nice Article! I'm running this deck as one of my 2 main decks (After I get more Terrakions/Roserades). Just a few things I'd like to point out to maybe help out future readers: -Mew EX's Description: While you have its fragility and use of countering loaded mewtwos listed, the method of...

    Pokemon's multiplayer is back.

    I opened 15 DRX Packs, got SR Rayquaza, mew EX, 2 Scrappers, 3 GCapes, Garchomp, Altaria, Hydreigon, and WLFM Energy. Also opened 25 DEX Packs, got FA Entei, Raikoi, Groudon, 3 Dark Patches (Got 2 more frmo Shadows Deck), RH Empoleon, a Random Receiver, and I think 3 Sableye. Opened 13 EPO...

    Could Plusle work as a consistency Pokemon?

    RE: Could Plusle work as a Set Up Pokemon? I meant to say Darkrai/Hydreigon, not just straight Darkrai. Sorry for my mistake.

    Could Plusle work as a consistency Pokemon?

    RE: Could Plusle work as a Set Up Pokemon? I actually had a discussion with a friend the other day about plusle, and we came to a few reasons as to why Plusle is just...inferior as an option for support: -Needing an energy to attack: While every pokemon in the format requires an energy to...

    Bright Look

    Oh. Sorry about the misunderstanding. I was not aware that placing damage counters was an effect that Espeon could prevent. Thanks for the clarification, though.

    Bright Look

    I'm sorry, but how does Espeon stop Raticate? I'm assuming you mean DEX Espeon, in which case Raticate's Super Fang isn't prevented by Espeon's ability. I say this because Espeon doesn't prevent the damage from Damagagriiigus, and Super Fang/Damagariiigus work off the same sort of....thing.

    Other Returning Gimmicks (LV. X, Star, etc)

    I'd LOVE to see Delta Species return. They were so unique, they were cool to collect and gave an entire engine for decks to work off of. However, I think they were a one-time thing, so I don't see them returning. Gold Stars probably won't return, as we are just getting Shiny Pokemon as Secret...

    Gothitelle/Reuniclus

    Just know there are a few more things that can actually OHKO Gothitelle w/o weakness and with weakness, and here's a list of the top tier decks and how they'll handle against Gothitelle/Reuniclus (Note: Anything with a * means that Giant Cape stops this counter): -Eelektrik: ZekromEX...

    Empoleon

    ^and I feel this is too pessimistic. While we must consider Klinklang/Zekeels to be highly unfavorable (Due to the electric attackers), Garchomp/Altaria is much in the favor of Empoleon. Just by them existing you 2KO them, and Altarias are hard to keep on the field. Remember that Empoleon has...

    Kyurem/Klinklang BW on - glaciate!

    With regards to what Jaykam said, I'd recommend adding in an EPO Klinklang to your spread. For a metal energy, he can take ANY energy from the discard and attach it to himself. Just remember to run a few basic darkness energies so he's not stuck in the active position.

    Donchamp is Still Awesome!!

    Just one question: How do you expect to use this for anything except a league match or so before rotation comes? DRX isn't legal by time of worlds, so you'll really never have the chance to mix HGSS sets with DRX. So this is kinda an unlimited deck in that aspect, in which case, there are much...

    Coming back into the game for rotation September First, Need help getting staples

    Emolga and Giant Cape will be needed if you plan on running Stage 2 Decks. They help out a lot.

    Mew EX (dragons exalted)

    With this, you have a fragile attacker that gives up 2 prizes. Mew EX cannot be played in the same fashion as Mew Prime, who has decks based around him. The key to playing with Mew EX is to use him as a tech against mewtwo EX, as he effectively gives you a Mysterious-type "copycat" of your deck...

    Zeblock+Chandelure Deck (Help?)

    I have, but I opted for Rescue Scarf over them to get Zebstrika back into my hand (The mon most likely to be in the discard) so I could evolve a benched Blitzle immediately after if need be. I played about 4 games with this deck so far, and the issue I kept coming across is getting energies out...

    Zeblock+Chandelure Deck (Help?)

    Hello, I want to build a deck based around Zebstrika NXD (The one with Disconnect). I had a crazy idea for a deck that could both accomplish this, but also get Chandelure NIV (Cursed Shadow) into the active spot momentarily and apply the cursed shadow, increasing it from 40 to 70 damage per...

    Card Errors Database (Include Images!)

    RE: New Errors and Misprints Thread >New Rule: Please Provide a Picture When Sharing a Possible Fake or Misprint. This isn't the only time they've done it, to be plain. DRX Emolga has the same W/R set, and he's an electric/flying pokemon as well... While the TCG is based on the VG, they have...

    Empolerade for Battle Roads

    PokecastXVII: I thought the same thing at first, but there's something you're overlooking, mainly 3 things that make Empoleon strong enough to take on Zekrom Variants: 1. Their reliance on the bench: They need at least 2 Eelektriks on the bench to reliably set up attackers. Pair this with...

    Empolerade for Battle Roads

    I say you could take out one water energy for a Pluspower...but one-of cards just aren't worth it anymore now that Junk Arm's gone, and you're running dangerously low Energy counts if you run only 7 (I run 8 total energy in my TerraEmp Deck). If you think you could manage the 7 energy, then take...
