Thanks dude

Does anyone have a list of exactly which trainers are standard and which are extended legal post rotation? I'm sorting out my folders and I keep finding stuff that has been reprinted in starter sets and theme decks and the like and it's all getting a bit confusing. It's not so bad with pokemon...

I don't think a wailord variant would work, too much effort switching things out so you can bring things back with attacks, I was using it as an example that the only really impressive deck out deck of the season has relied on unkillable pokemon. You don't have that in your deck so you need to...

I played a toad/daunt deck similar to this, your main problem is unless you opt for a wailord like strategy where you just don't give up prizes (hard with so many low hp pokemon) most decks will have something at least that can one or two shot your stuff, and if you hit item or ability lock...

The value of any item is only what people will pay for it. As long as people will pay £25 for a Shaymin EX then that is what it's worth. But tbh money is only paper we put value to if you want to get real philosophical. So we are just trading paper for paper. So it all gets kinda weird at the...

You don't have enough draw trainers, this will be a massive weakness. Try -2 pokemon centre lady -2 tool retriever -2 evo soda -1 Startling Megaphone +1 Prof birch obs. +4 Prof Sycamore +1 Lysandre +1 VS seeker This should bring a lot of consistency to your deck, which will help you get your...

"Magic numbers" refers to the HP of most commonly found pokemon in the meta, so most EX are 170 or 180, most M are 210 or 220. So you need to be able to, reliably ohko pokemon with that amount of HP. So 4 damage counters is enough to ohko and EX in the game (warlord excepted) and 4 damage...

Lugia EX is more balanced and better for the game. The thing that made Mewtwo EX so broken wasn't his above average-good attack, it was that he was also psychic typing which meant he shut down any deck with psychic weakness, aka all other psychic and about half of all fighting decks. As a...

That is what I used, but go with what your gut tells you. I Personally think you need to be hitting five damage counters on a benched Mew EX (or four and muscle band) so you can start OHKO toads and M Rays at will. It's a speed sweep deck, you want to be hitting those magic numbers (180, 220)...

I ran 4 rainbow energy in mine just to up the self damage potential on mew.

I've been thinking over this again, and it's something that really annoys me about dragon types. If they had made this a normal fighting type then this would be an insanely good card capable of OHKOing any mega pokemon with just simple muscle band, strong energy combo and plenty of support to...

I am a new CFVG player and have a small local tourney this thursday, hoping you guys can help iron out my deck list, it's the first time I have completely built a deck from scratch, before I just had two of the GC starters that I kept modifying as I got new cards, and that worked really well for...

I think multi purpose denial decks that just mess your opponent's strategy out will do very well, between aegislash, giritina, nine tails, craw daunt, woabuffet, vileplume (perhaps), toad, maybe even bunnelby, hammers, paint rollers, hex maniacs, xerosic, lysandre and team flare grunts plus...

I would agree with unknown, plus acro bike, and revive, that's twelve search and draws you can get out. Effectively once you have swamper set up this will let you play almost with twelve less cards in your deck because these twelve will become any other card you need, which can be a massive...

Thanks Strictnein, I did think that it was likely to be a problem. Maybe a giratina Ex or second aegislash. And I will probably put the unknown back in. Caique I did have them in originally but people made me second guess them, I might put them back in, I'm not sure.

Hey guys thanks for all the advice, I suppose I hadn't really thought that weakness wouldn't be a issue as Vespiquen's HP is so low, annoyingly in my local meta there are two players who play charizard EX decks on a regular basis, and I do run a mean camerupt, but I guess those decks will...

People will hate you. I love it. That being said, I think maybe 3 ace trainer is a bit too much for a non EX deck I think, but again time and meta will tell how useful this card is. I would have 1 and 2 N or even 2 more colress. I would suggest a 1 of Muscle band to try and get that extra...

Super scoop ups, or better AZ to switch as it kills off all attached cards like metal energy for instance. Switching isn't too much a problem now a days between scoop ups, Az, Switch, Escape rope, and for dragons Hydreigon EX as mentioned above. Switching isn't something I worry about for this...

Ok, so we have confirmed a new Tyrantrum EX promo box. But is it useful? It's ability seems like it could just make it into some dragon decks, but I wonder if there is enough dragon support to use it as a main attacker. Without a way to recycle double dragon energy it could be tricky. But I...

Having read the Bandit ring set review I thought I would start with an entertaining deck that is outlined in the article. The Vespiquen + Eeveelutions. (All bandit ring cards mentioned in this topic can be found here if you are unsure as to what they do...
