    Standard Dugtrio / Eeveelutions

    Find space for a couple of focus sash, they can allow you to soak what would otherwise be an easy OHKO. Just watch out for bats. I think FS is better in the golurk variant of eeveelutions. But one or two in here could make a difference at the right time.

    Alt. Format XY-On: Finishing off this Golurk Deck (Golurk / Eeveelutions)

    I'm using Hawlucha to some considerable success. He is really perfect for coming in after they kill off a golurk and mopping up EX's that have been hit by a (non weakness) super power. With strong energy on both the previous golurk and the new hawlucha you can be doing 220 damage in two attacks...

    Discussion New Rogue Decks using Ancient Origin Cards!

    I think that you are right in gereral, but I am gonna keep flareon in for now as everyone near me is hyping sceptile ex decks (also maybe a good partner tech for that beedrill deck) and the local "best player" (wins about 2 out of 3 tourneys locally) is putting together a sceptile/manectric deck...

    Standard Golurk / Eeveelutions

    That seems so convoluted through, I mean you need to get flareon out for a starters, which means the quickest you will be able to BS is turn two, but you can easily just drop a DCE on turn one or two and a single energy on the other turn one or two and be powered up in the same turn as long as...

    Standard Golurk / Eeveelutions

    Hey guys, I decided based on how many people in my local meta are going for Vespiquen to go for Golurk, the reason being I can OHKO them even for just my basic attack, but they have to get a good start as they cannot hit me for weakness at all. Also I am predicting quite a few Ray decks and...

    Sadly Wigglytuff's attack won't trigger Energy evolution ability.

    Standard XY-On: Golurk / Flareon / Jolteon

    That's very cool then. Another good reason for me to try out this deck. I would loose the Landorus through, I don't think it's worth giving up a prize to get a single energy acceleration, what I would do instead is make the following changes: -2 Landorus -1 Ace trainer -1 Trainers mail -3...

    Standard XY-On: Golurk / Flareon / Jolteon

    Are you sure this is how it works? admittedly I don't think this has ever come up in a game before but I don't know if you apply weakness and resistance against your own attacks.

    Discussion AOR Malamar

    It was just a quick list to illustrate the kind of things the deck might have in it, if you notice it's not even 60 cards (I didn't count how many cards in it), yeah it's clunky and missing a little bit, and maybe could have some fat trimmed. But it wasn't meant to be a playable list, just a way...

    Discussion New Rogue Decks using Ancient Origin Cards!

    I think regice has a lot of potential for decks. Hipodown did well as a stage one, but it took less energy, so I dunno maybe hipodown with eeveelutions is a better choice in high EX metas. Gengar isn't a bad shout, but would require two types of energy to pull off, and I prefer sticking with...

    I hadn't seen that, thanks Chex076. I will look it up now. Glad we aren't loosing EX's for now. Bet you Hoopa hits £15 a card before nationals starts.

    Skeleton list off the top of my head 3-3 crawdaunt 4-4 Malamar 2 Absol 4-3-2 Crobat 2 Shaymin EX 2 Unknown (because if there is nothing else you want in your graveyard these become a extra free draw each turn) 1 or 2 Bunnelby (ancient trait) maybe... 4 Sycamore 2 Shauna 1 Prof Birch...

    Discussion AOR Malamar

    I hadn't considered this, but now you mention it I would probably pair it with Crawdaunt, Bats and Absol (the one that moves damage around). My deck would revolve around using bats and the occasional attack to get KO's, but stall with an infinite amount of hammers and lysandres and what have...

    Discussion New Rogue Decks using Ancient Origin Cards!

    Some great ideas there guys, I'm already looking at building Golurk+Eeveelutions as that seems like such a broad way to shut down people. Especially with all the fighting stadiums and strong energies go lurk can benefit from. I like the way you think about the ace trainer, because of course it...

    Discussion New Rogue Decks using Ancient Origin Cards!

    Ok, so guys, what rogue decks and combos are you feeling out with the new Ancient origin cards. One card which was brought to my attention (by my fiancée who only plays fairy type decks) is the new whimsicott. It's attack really is something, for one fairy energy it (and I quote) Move all...

    Discussion Most Broken Pokemon Cards

    Hoopa and shaymin in the same format is riding the borderline of brokeness. I don't think it matters which one came first, if it had been the other way around Hoopa would have merely been a "Good" to "Great" set up tool. But with both it's (in my opinion) "Phenomenal tier 1 level" But of course...

    Discussion Abusing Dustox & Giant plant forest

    Hey guys I was wondering if you could help me come up with a fun rogue/semi competitive deck list that uses Dustox (ancient trait) and Giant plant forest, some good partners for it I think are Ariodos is a fairly viable partner, and it's such a shame the new eeveelutions couldn't be partnered...

    TCG Ancient Origins/XY: Launch Kit vs Booster Box vs Trainer Kit

    Look on ebay and other single card sellers for people who do whole collections, like you can get a playset of each common, uncommon and rare from one set for about a quarter or less of the RRP of a booster box, if you are serious in investing a couple of hundred quid and want the most for your...

    Discussion Most Broken Pokemon Cards

    After some play testing I think the new Hoopa EX is close to being broken, I'm using it in my Giritina/Vileplume deck and it almost always allows me to get my full EX line up into play on turn one as well as my full Vileplume line. The reason being it lets you grab a Giritina EX (if you didn't...

    Discussion Help me do some crazy Card Math of PAIN

    I wonder if it would be possible to (with the right math) build a thing where you could just copy your deck list in and it will spit out the percentage chances? Or is that the kind of project you need a six figure budget, professional coders and mathematicians?
