    Snorunt, Glalie, and Froslass from “Mask of Change”

    Froslass plus Ting-Lu ex shuts down everything that isn’t an ex, but it looks Ting-Lu will stop the damage. But it still gives you chip to KO low HP ex, so maybe?

    Aegislash ex from “Future Flash”

    This can pair well with Luminous Energy, at least. We have Armarouge (or something better, I didn’t look) to move it to the Active…so at least it could finish a game? It’s still challenging to set up—it might be okay with Arceus Vstar, then, since it can take some early KOs, and Aegislash ex...

    Ninetales ex from ‘Pokemon Card 151’!

    We do have Heat Boost Rapidash, Copycat/Judge, Magma Basin, baby retreat-lowering Ninetales, and Bibarel/Revaroom/Kirlia, and Path to the Peak, so it could turn out okay? Damage is low, but it’s okay enough to set up with careful play and good deck building—T2 Mirrored Flames KO’s many Pokémon...

    Onix, Raichu from ‘Pokemon Card 151’!

    We have Miriam now, and we can run four. This might seem like it sucks, but Celebrations Kyogre was running around doing Energy Recycler shenanigans in Lost Box, which is a similar idea—the biggest problem might be finding good Pokemon with four retreat to include (and others with a lower...

    Grafaiai, Shroodle from Clay Burst!

    They're reprinting Superior Energy Retrieval to get back four at a time, and this one actually discards the energy, which is actually a good bit better than Smeargle, whose energies just got shuffled away by Judge or Marnie, and now Iono. Plus, Smeargle needed Twin Energy, which is gone, or...

    “Scarlet ex and Violet ex” Cards Fully Revealed!

    Some Highlights: Revaroom has a great ability—it'll be good somewhere. Dondozo/Tatsugiri could be somewhat effective—it is 2 for 200 on a 160 HP single prize basic, and Tatsugiri can be freely tossed into the discard pile (rather than past iterations, like Gyarados/Magikarp). Gardevoir ex...

    Discussion Easiest way to hit 120 with a non GX/V?

    I suggest Aerodactyl from Team Up. It does 180 for three colorless if you don't have GX/EX Pokemon in play. Also, Dewgong from Unbroken Bonds does 60 to two Pokemon for three colorless. If you want to keep Caturday, I'd focus on on Espurr from Unbroken Bonds, which is the best of the Caturday...

    'Shocking Volt Tackle,' Japan's September Set!

    Salamence V and Cramorant V will love this. I use both of those as supporting attackers in my Welder Dubwool V deck, as they are both very splashable. More broadly, energy acceleration in the form of Frosmoth, Welder, ADP, Rillaboom, Porygon-Z, PikaRom, etc. can use Salamence V to take on...

    Standard Raikou/Marshadow

    I play a GX-less version of Raikou/Zapdos. I suggest revamping your supporter lines. Upping your counts of Lillie to 4 and Volkner to 3 should provide a consistency boost. Getting either in your starting hand increases your odds of getting lightning energy in the lost zone ASAP. Saving the Lele...

    Standard Full Stab (Bisharp/ Healing)

    Have you tested this out? One potential issue is getting out Bisharp. There's no point in having a ton of healing cards if your Bisharp keep gettting KO'd and you can't replace them. You might want to dial back the healing cards and focus a bit more on consistency cards depending on whether or...

    -1 Gabite -1 Buzzwole GX -1 Shrine of Punishment -1 Rescue Stretcher -1 Timer Ball -1 Field Blower +2 Brooklet Hill +1-1 Lucario +2 Lillie Some minor changes to try out. The goal is T2 Garchomp. Lillie is excellent T1. I'd suggest upping your energy counts (missing an attachment can be fatal)...

    Discussion Giratina Sm7b Fairy Rise

    Pair it with Zoroark GX. Giratina keeps your bench full and allows for easier KOs. Trade is an easy way to get it in the discard pile.

    Passimian. Too good to pass up.

    Expanded Alakazam/Giratina

    Using Sky Field is a good option (though it would conflict with Dimension Valley for M Alakazam EX), since it gives you more space for Giratina until the stadium is kicked out of play (after which you can discard multiple Giratina). Zoroark GX is a great partner as usual with Trade to discard...
