It all comes down to the translation to be honest. If it's "THERE IS a stadium" it's a million times better than "if YOU HAVE a stadium". The difference being, yes you can tech against it if it's "there is" but if it's "you have" then any deck that runs stadiums is a counter. All Nightmarch has...

There is a lot about this set I dislike tbh, N aside (I accept it even if I don't have to like it). Aerodactyl and carbink seem like great cards, until you realise they are nearly useless. Trying to fish an aurodactyl off the bottom seven cards of your library seems like the dumbest mechanic for...

I have been freaking out over writing my thesis. But at the end you said the article was only 7000 words. My thesis only has to be 8000. When you see it all on one page like that it seems a lot more manageable. Thank you you have stopped me freaking out so much. Also this article was great...

You can't say just because you lost one game that it's a bad deck or card. If you play it well you shouldn't lock yourself, that is the beauty of vile plume. And all decks have bad match ups, get it turn one vs a toad/tina or toad/king or nightmarch or vespiquen and you will have a very good...

I've been toying with the idea of M vensaur or M sceptic for standard. Mixed with vile plume and a turbo compressor + revitaliser engine. Honestly I think it has potential, and more than just vespiquen. I like M venusaur (hear me out) because you play it slow like a primal groudon deck, but...

Tbh you would be better off with a lugia EX or yveltal EX surely? Maybe in a fighting deck, cause you could korrina for the spirit link and a useful pokemon. But I dunno.

Or you could play nightmarch with target whistles and lysandres, do the same strategy and have a deck that can work about 9001% better against anyone who won't or doesn't use shaymin in a "brain dead" manor.

Well that's awesome news about Groudon making a come back. It's a cheap and fun deck. But if everyone starts playing Groudon the best way to counter that is Vespiquen, which needs shaymin. Which format was that btw standard or expanded? I'm guessing at expanded. As on the subject of MTG. I am...

There NEEDS to be some sort of deflation on Shaymin EX. If you want to play this game competitively it's the cheapest of TCG's to do so, but first you have to bite the bullet and spend about £100 on four cards. That's not a good look for any TCG. I have a playset and would be super happy if...

If they had put a new up to date character on it I wouldn't have minded. But I have no problem with the card being back. Just think it would have been a cool reprint with a different dude. N annoys me as a character.

Does Russian count as a local language in European tournaments? I was told it probably wasn't but russia is part of Europe so surely it comes under the same ruling as any other European language?

I went 2-3 with a pure garchomp list at a cities today. It was a list designed to just stream garchomps as quickly and efficiently as possible. I wish I had put a couple of max potion in tbh. Beat wailord & gardevoir. Lost to quad mega manectric, darkrai (he only played the yvetels and shaymin...

Exact same card name on a trainer, means a guaranteed reprint no? Unless the nerf it like they did with pokemon catcher and retroactively nerf him in expanded too. But that's highly unlikely. I am getting a little sick of these reprints and I started at BW era. So I was enjoying a fresh...

Use max elixirs, they are awesome in this deck. Better than fiery torches. Also this deck needs battle compressors badly. Getting rid of a blacksmith and two energies on turn one with a VS seeker in hand is a key play.

If you are gonna play hammers then you can make them a million times better by having at least one head ringer. Durant Disruption Turbo (DDT) Pokemon 9 4 durant 1 bunnelby 2 Shaymin EX 2-2 Garbodour Supporters 9 4 Sycamore 2 Delinquent 1 Xerosic 2 Lysander Items 29 3 VS...

You need a bunnelby or two to regain lost rainbow energies/stadiums and occasionally mill one or two.

Flash energy won't be reliable against Garchomp, most if not all variants will run a enhanced hammer to snipe special energy via Korrina. Plus Xerosic is still one of the strongest one off supporters in the game. And of course most variants only run one maybe two flash energy as they can't be...

You keep assuming the Garchomp player must be aiming for OHKO's against Yvetels why would you spend so much resources doing that when you have glorious free retreat, it's not hard to set up two Garchomps, then with focus sash and max potion it wouldn't be hard to keep just attacking, retreating...

Here is a random thought that is occurring to me, it's not a finished decklist although feel free to refine and repost it here with your ideas. Strategy: I figure if Mienshoa can reliably play 10-16 focus sash a game why can't you do the same with bursting balloon? Pokémon: 4 Sigilyph...

Maxie/Garchomp in Toad/Tina to get DDE and DCE back? If you get it off turn one you can even compressor away your special energies and start attaching from turn one and have a fully powered Tina AND Toad end of turn two. It works, but can someone make it consistent? Personally I will be...
