Raticate + Ariados maybe? With bats? Seems like it could be a fun play. Raticate + Laserbank in expanded. Mwahahaha

Ok so I am primarily a player, but me and my fiancée want to sort out all our commons and uncommons into a playset of each in a binder for easy hunting. The problem is how do we do this so we don't have to move dozens and dozens of cards around every time a set comes out? So far we have thought...

I'm playing mine with Yveltal EX for brute force. 3-3-2 break line, 2 or 3 Yveltal EX, three head ringers, 2 or 3 float stones. You see where this is going, use the opponents game breaking attack on them before they can power up to use it. And if they do power up KO with bacon-god EX. Seems...

Pretty easy to put a tonne of damage on him then KO him by putting another stadium over sky field, then you can KO another one same turn with an attack. You would have to try to pair him with Ninetales to avoid that.

I don't think this deck is super competitive at the moment, but the second Max Potion reprint hits I think this deck will likely fly to tier 1/2 pretty easily. There are so many good options for a toolbox deck atm.

Honestly dude, I would try it with Team Magma's secret base and Fortress instead. Fortress saves you a lot of deck room compared to your bulky bat line up, and you can still get two damage counters on everything really easy with base and a single fortress. That's all you need to KO everything in...

Lol thanks, nothing like some 90's/early 2000 punk puns.

I'm gonna miss Donphan, being in England expanded isn't something that really happens to us unless you get to day two of nationals.

Someone at my local is having success with just M Ampharos EX/Raichu. It's simple but effective. Use rough seas to keep stuff in play longer, use mega turbos, DCE and stuff to get set up.

I think a rogue deck needs to really come out of the blue, it needs to be the kind of deck that when you flip over your starter your opponent thinks "Ok, this guy hasn't got a clue, easy win" and then proceed to pull off an unusual but devastating strategy using weird or unheard of cards that...

They will always ban the card that has least effect on the meta game, this is why they won't ban GPF. It would destroy other decks that aren't innately broken. The pokemon company want to avoid solitaire style playing, no turn losses/one turn wins. There is a better way than just starting an...

Ok, heres the thing. In a card pool of mixed cards with different abilities (like any tcg) there will always be over powered cards, but I don't think they are always broken. For example unless every pokemon has the exact same hp, attack, ability. Just the typing weakness and resistance differed...

Otaku, you are right, but you are saying kinda what I wanted to say. I don't think shaymin is broken because, simply it only lets you draw more cards. Because it is usable in any (every) deck it is a balanced tool that everyone can take advantage of it speeds up the whole meta game just by...

Ok, so we all know that expanded is going to be used for the next regionals, but from talking to a few of our local professors and a top 8 nats player I know, everybody has said the same thing. They aren't 100% sure but nobody seems to think expanded will be played anywhere other than US...

I've seen a lot of metal ray, toad, a regice deck that did incredibly well, a couple of very strong lucario/bats, quite a few vileplume decks with mixed results and a few vespiquen decks too. A few people I know are hyping Manectric/Sceptile, but I think trying to run two 3-3 mega lines could be...

Druddigon, now that is a cunning tech. I can see that working pretty well. I hadn't even considered that. As a one of in a toad deck it could work quite well.

Well as we are disagreeing over a theoretical thing which is likely to never happen we will just have to agree to disagree, but from my experience in other TCG's the sideboard I believe would be very useful. The thing is, a deck is only really rogue until everyone is playing it. Donphan for...

Dugtrio is also a great option if you are having trouble with fighting weak pokemon in your local area.

Crushing hammer is fairly unreliable unless you are playing a deck focused on disruption and running a lot of them (like a whole playset) and have a way to recycle them, as a playset is statistically enough to kill only two DCE. But Aegislash is a good call. Only thing is most vespiquen decks...

Trust me from experience, getting rid of a stadium is so easy that any deck that relies on having to have a stadium to attack is doomed. All you have to do is play your own, or paint roller and bam, shuts down your attack completely. Most decks run stadiums now, so simply executing their own...
