    Blog No More Night March! Celebrating the New Standard Format and Some Theorymon

    Not gonna show any love for Mega Mewtwo? Aside from Dark and MAYBE Greninja, Mewtwo could hold its own pretty well post-rotation. I'm kinda thinking of running it with Clawitzer for acceleration. Then again Clawitzer can be good for a lot of then-bad Megas.

    Standard Mega Altaria deck

    You are most welcome :D In regards to the Shaymin starts, it happens less often than you might think, even in a deck with few Pokemon. Just speaking from my point of view, I've never liked more than 1 Shaymin in my decks, as it presents those Shaymin starts in a greater possibility. But that's...

    Standard Mega Altaria deck

    I feel like a good card to use in any Altaria deck, especially if using Shaymin, is Winona. It won't get you the Mega like Hoopa can, but you can still search for any combination of basic Altaria and Shaymin. By the way, I like your use of Whimsicott lol Pretty nasty on paper. But anyways, if...

    Discussion Viability of SS Clawitzer

    I'm really intrigued by the new Clawitzer card. I feel like it could make some normally bad Megas good, and good Megas even better. Say the ones who have really good attacks on paper but execution is difficult given their attack costs. Clawitzer BREAK seems a bit gimmicky, but the fact that...

    Discussion Yanmega XY11 - Viability and partners.

    Basically the deck would be Yanmega/Octillery hands down. Judge is nice, but it's iffy. Retreat is a non-issue for Yanmega, though Octillery constitutes a Switch or two. A good attacking partner for Yanmega would probably be an easy setup Water-type (not sure who) to cover weakness. I also think...

    Standard Charizard-EX/Volcanion-EX: Magical 180

    Yeah I thought about that. It's my fault cuz I'm used to playing tanky decks :p I did think about trying Olympia in the event of item lock. I also have Ninja Boy as pseudo-Switch in that regard but I see your point and it's fair one. I'll definitely have to tool around with this deck when Steam...

    'Sun' and 'Moon' Livestream and Coverage from E3!

    So this region's bird is a woodpecker? I love it. I will name it "Ganta". Who gets the reference? ;) I love that it has Skill Link, as Fury Attack which I'm sure it will learn will actually be a good early game move. I gotta imagine they'll add some new multi-hit move that's Flying type as well...

    Standard Charizard-EX/Volcanion-EX: Magical 180

    Hey guys. So Yeah I'm super into Volcanion-EX and while I think it could be a fabulous deck on its own, I feel Charizard-EX benefits greatly from Volcanion-EX's Steam Up ability to reach the magical 180. 3 Volcanion (Power Heater) 3 Charizard-EX (Generations Promo) 2 Volcanion-EX 1 Hoopa-EX 2-2...

    Japan's XY11: 'Explosive Fighter / Cruel Traitor', CP5: 'Mythical / Legendary Dream Holo Collection'

    There's so many interesting cards here. The BREAKs are all fairly decent and interest me the most (expect maybe Hydreigon...). Yanmega could definitely be a thing with FGP and maybe some good draw cards like Octillery to maximize Yanmega's cheapness. Plus Flare Tools will be staple with...

    I need that Gears of Fire theme deck. I needs it... ... Give it.

    Discussion Dual-Type Pokemon

    I'm super hype for Volcanion EX. There are so many applications to this card. It boosts the power of Basic Fire Pokemon. Just 1 Steam Up can make a Charizard EX hit for a clean 180, while also sending Fire Energy to the discard pile for various purposes. Such as creating fodder for Blacksmith...

    Rowlet, Litten, Popplio from the Alola Region!

    Oh my god, you get a little buddy in your Pokedex. I love it!! I hope the Rotom dex is like another companion for Ash in the anime, considering it's a sentient being. Pretty convenient that Professor Oak has a Rotom don't you think...? I kinda wish it floated along with you as you're walking, or...

    Discussion XY11 Xerneas BREAK Deck

    I would say maybe only two of these, 3 Xerneas, and any combination of Fairy EXs. Making a very Basic focused Fairy deck. Plus Aromatisse depending on the format. This is just my personal take on Xerneas BREAK, and I'm not confirming anything until the rest of the set is released, but there is...

    Standard Bronzong BREAK deck

    Greetings, all. I would like some input on a deck i've been working on that mostly focuses on Bronzong BREAK. 3 Bronzong BREAK 3 Bronzong (Phantom Forces) 4 Bronzor (Fates Collide) 2 Genesect EX (Fates Collide) 2 Shaymin EX (Roaring Skies) --- 14 Pokemon 10 Metal Energy --- 10 Energy 3 Prof...

    Japan's XY11: 'Explosive Fighter / Cruel Traitor', CP5: 'Mythical / Legendary Dream Holo Collection'

    I can see a full Xerneas deck coming from this. Geomancy combined with Max Elixir makes for some decent acceleration. Is it all powerful? Probably not, but the engine is there for a fun deck at least.

    Japan's XY11: 'Explosive Fighter / Cruel Traitor', CP5: 'Mythical / Legendary Dream Holo Collection'

    The basic Volcanion has pretty nice synergy with its EX version. Discard energy with the EX's ability while also adding damage. Then use Power Heater for Potentially 140 damage for one Energy while also accelerating Energy to your Bench. It makes for very nice early game pressure and good energy...

    Japan's XY11: 'Explosive Fighter / Cruel Traitor', CP5: 'Mythical / Legendary Dream Holo Collection'

    I honestly think Mega Gardevoir is just a smidge overpowered. Simply for the fact it does more for less. By that, I mean, whether you use Dimension Valley and/or Florges BRT alone depending on the format, you're doing 110 damage for 1 or even no energy no strings attached. Very much like Florges...

    Japan's XY11: 'Explosive Fighter / Cruel Traitor', CP5: 'Mythical / Legendary Dream Holo Collection'

    To get around that 3 retreat cost, one could maybe use Manaphy-EX and a few water energy considering Volcanion is a Water type.

    'Sky Guardian' and 'Battle Ruler' Theme Deck Images, Lists!

    Lugia is actually a pretty good card. It's basically Bouffalant from a couple formats ago. Assault Vest on him would be pretty interesting. Max Elixir makes him fairly fast, and the BREAK makes him more tanky at least.
