    Discussion What Rogues are People Playing?

    Ah. My non-EX variant is using about 13 energy: 4 DCE, 3 fairy, and 2 each of other energy types depending on what Pokemon go in. With appropriate use of Compressors and Smeargle, it's not too bad, with Exp Share to salvage energy from KO's. I don't hit that 210 cap often, but a full bench of 5...

    Wow thanks! I do wish I had more time to put into it, and your words really do add a bit of encouragement to keep going. I'll try to update with recent decks in the works soon!

    Discussion Excadrill / Aromatisse / M Mewtwo-EX?

    If you're set on a fairy engine for Mewtwo-Y support, why not just use XY Xerneas? It's a basic, you'd typically go second to land the turn-1 Geomancy, and not expend resources trying to force an evolution onto your field. I mean, Wally sounds good in theory, but I've found more often than not...

    Discussion Jacked Up (Speed Zoroark)

    I'd think you should probably cut shaymin from the lineup and go to Brigette+Unown+Evosoda for your entire Pokemon engine, along with your standard blend of 7-8 Sycamore/Shauna/Birch/Judge/etc. Add in Ariados and you have a recipe for disaster, since after poisoning your own Zoroark you can just...

    Discussion What Rogues are People Playing?

    It would be, if Xerneas got boosted by Eeveelutions too. However, the Eevees only give type-bonus to stage 1 evolutions, so by that point you'd just be running a Golurk deck where the Xerneas becomes almost obsolete lol It's not a bad idea, but it's a different deck altogether from the Xerneas...

    Discussion Pinsir-Bats

    If you really want to make use of the Promo celebi, you're probably going to need TONS of energy disruption (like a typical mill deck these days) and the nasty Faded Town to deal with higher-HP Megas. Ariados for poison pressure is necessary, and yes the damage and KO's come slow but it's...

    Discussion What Rogues are People Playing?

    People suggested the Eevees, but since they are already those types I might as well just stick with Regice>Vaporeon and Dedenne>Jolteon. I don't have a fire type to use with the deck (considered AOr Entei with Ancient Trait but damage output too low to be much use), but the Golurk is an...

    Discussion What Rogues are People Playing?

    I'm also working with a Xerneas deck from Breakthrough, but not with stalling-Pokemon. I'm trying to build mine with all basic, non-EX Pokemon to get maximum use out of Brigette, and still have deck space for necessary trainers and energy. Sadly, though, it's impossible to fit in every type of...

    Discussion The Blazing Hellhound - (M) Houndoom EX Discussion

    As someone who's played a couple Bunnelby variants, I wholeheartedly agree. Mill decks are HARD, but very rewarding when you play your cards right. I've used it with Ninjask (RoS) that discards the opponent's top card while active with its ability, and I'ved used a straight Bunnelby-Robo Sub...

    Discussion The Blazing Hellhound - (M) Houndoom EX Discussion

    The list you replied to uses no attacks that discard energy and in general isn't even meant to attack for prizes. The only OHKO that Houndoom variant is going to get is against Vespaquen or Night March.

    Discussion Haunter Discussion

    The fact that it's a drop-in ability for just confusion would slow down any deck. Ariados has the strength of poisoning every single turn, while Haunter on the other hand will only land confusion on the drop, and then sit idle on the bench. Sure, there's AZ and Scoops, but one takes your...

    2015 World Champion Deck Product Images!

    Well there are times that a Junior runner up deck is just more interesting than the Master's runner up. Back in 08, the finals in masters was a mirror match, so why print two of the same deck? If anything, it was the Juniors deck that was the most interesting and unique that year. And for this...

    Standard Beautifly / Miltank

    This is just a thought so hear me out... Why no Dustox? It carries a 50 damage snipe attack and takes extra prizes for getting KO's. Night March seems popular at the moment, so if you could pull off one of them quickly, you can land a good prize lead off a benched Joltik worth 2 prizes, or if...

    Discussion Most Broken Pokemon Cards

    Wait... Shaymin's draw power is broken? You must not have played when there was an Uxie card with the same power, but for a hand of 7 cards. At the same time, there was a deck that gained some popularity using Crobat G (a basic who dropped damage just by being played), Shuppet (1 energy, 30...

    Anomynous close US Government site, Megaupload closed. SOPA

    Like completely canned. Look at Limewire's official website, for example. It was taken down by the government because it was used primarily to pirate copyrighted material will little to no efforts to remove said content from its systems, like Deviantart and Youtube at least make an attempt to do.

    Anomynous close US Government site, Megaupload closed. SOPA

    Megaupload owners were convicted of pirating, in no relation to SOPA whatsoever. What happened to Megaupload is the same trouble that befell Kazaa and Limewire years ago.

    Anomynous close US Government site, Megaupload closed. SOPA

    What I really can't stand is all the hype over Megaupload, a site that provided similar services as Limewire and Kazaa did back in the day, and are acting like it was a martyr against SOPA. Megaupload, like Limewire, was teeming with illegal content that actually does create losses for copyright...

    Banning Blaziken... Was it really the best choice?

    I just detest the overall Smogon classification of the Uber tier. Ubers, as defined IN game are those that cannot be used in the battle tower/frontier/subway. As far as I'm concerned, everything else is fair game. Oh, by the way, Yanmega also has Speed Boost as a standard ability, and nobody...

    Lucario from Call of Legends (#14) [4/1]

    1. I personally feel as though this Lucario is far too overlooked. In a day when people quickly fear Lost-Gengar decks, it could be a key player in a Mew Prime deck, since it attacks as easily as a Double Colorless Energy and 1-shots Lost-Gars with 5 in the Lost Zone (or 4 and a belt) 2. As I...
