    Japan's XY10 Set: 'Awakening of Psychic Kings,' Alakazam!

    The decks I see coming out of this set are: -Zygarde/Regirock/Carbink -Alakazam/Bats -Jolteon/Glaceon attack lock -Fossil shenanigans I also think Diancie-EX with Assault Vest would be pretty funny; tank 70 damage from your opponent. Against a Darkness deck, you could still block a good amount...

    Shiny Kalos Tins in May!

    So if these are the same cards as before, then that means Yveltal EX is gonna stay in rotation. And Zygarde-EX will be easily accessible to anyone. We're also keeping Strong Energy, so that makes it more frightening... This basically means Darkness and Fighting are gonna duke it out in top tier...

    Japan's XY10 Set: 'Awakening of Psychic Kings,' Alakazam!

    Zygarde-EX can do way too much damage for 1 Energy. If we're talking standard format, here is the math: Earth Pulse: 20+20(with stadium)+Fighting Stadium(20)+Strong Energy(20)+Muscle Band(20)= 100 damage. For one Energy. This is also not counting damage boosting Abilities like Regirock-EX's...

    Japan's XY10 Set: 'Awakening of Psychic Kings,' Alakazam!

    I remember Caitlin was a decent card to play with Fossils, since you could put the Restored Pokemon on the bottom of your deck and have draw support as well. The only problem was that you had to have the Fossil card and the Restored Pokemon in your hand along with Caitlin. So you would need to...

    Snorlax from XY10 'Awakening of the Psychic Kings'

    Snorlax w/ Fighting Fury Belt and Hypno would be the key combo here. With Sleep and FFB, it's doing 130 damage. It can definitely 2-shot basically anything, and most of the time the prize race could be in your favor. Though I can only see this being decent in Standard, it's definitely the next...

    Ariados/ Steel Shelter

    Hey guys. So I had this idea for a fun little play. As the title suggests, it involves Ariados' Poison Nest Ability and the Stadium card Steel Shelter. Steel Shelter prevents all Metal type Pokemon from being affected by Special conditions. Imagine if you will, a Metal type in your active spot...

    Japan's XY9 Set: 'Rage of the Broken Sky,' New 'Battle Strengthening Sets'

    Oh wow, that Garchomp is... far from terrible. And that art is terrifying. Awesome but terrifying. It's definitely a powerhouse Stage 2, easily accessible at that. Not sure what to pair it with, but it does have potential.

    Discussion Noivern BREAK Partners?

    I've actually seen a lot of people pair it with Gengar BRT. And while that sounds clunky and slow... yeah it kind of is, but it's actually pretty scary once it's set up. Especially since Gengar only needs a little bit to score KOs.

    Standard Glalie EX: The "Face" of Potential

    Yo guys, how's it going? So I have amassed a deck list for Glalie EX, one of my personal favorite cards from the new BREAKthrough set. Bare in mind this deck is in the testing phase and I'm still working out the kinks. Pokemon: 14 4-3 M Glalie EX 1 Lugia EX 2-2 Octillery 1-1 Ariados...

    Japan's XY9 Set: 'Rage of the Broken Sky,' New 'Battle Strengthening Sets'

    With this and Max Elixir, Glalie EX could actually see a lot of play. while it's Mega is only a tech option. Glalie EX at 210 hp, dealing 160 damage (w/ consistent Judging lol). Add in Bats or Archie's Empoleon (+20 atk) and you've got some nasty combos.

    Discussion Glalie EX Strategy

    One idea I had was to use Shrine of Memories. Play Glalie EX, next turn Mega Evolve. Mega Turbo with DCE and Judge (and/or careful card management) allowing you to use base Glalie's attack while having the extra HP of a Mega. Also having the option to use Cryomouth is nice. I don't know, just an...

    Standard M Manectric EX / Aegislash EX

    First let me say I like your use of Shrine of Memories. Quite an underrated card. Anyways, may I suggest using Acro Bike over Trainers Mail? It'll help with putting Energy in the Discard Pile for Manectric to accelerate. However if you don't have problems with that as you are, then that's fine...

    Discussion M Absol EX in Expanded XY8

    Hello everyone. Makoto here. I wanted to start my first post right, here on Pokebeach. I am an experienced player, but please pardon any future bouts of ignorance :p Anyhoo, the more I look at the Absol EX cards, the more I see potential potentially wasted. The mere fact that it doesn't have a...

    'Mega Aerodactyl-EX Premium Collection' in January!

    If it's a Fighting type and has a decent attack, it'll be playable. On the off chance it's Colorless, then maybe less so. Anyway, I'm just glad promo Megas get Spirit links now. If only Absol were so lucky =_=

    Standard Future: M Mewtwo Y / Bronzong / Golduck BREAK

    If you want a secondary attacker, you can't go wrong with things like Aegislash EX, Lugia EX, Heatran PHF, etc. If you really want to keep "Gold" Duck, you could drop the Psyduck and add Archie's Ace in the Hole. You can't get BREAK with him, but it could allow for easier setup and some extra...

    'Blue Impact' / 'Red Flash' Japan's XY8 Sets, Next Set Block Titled 'XY: BREAK!'

    I think Chesnaught BREAK has potential, though simply because of Broken Vine Sp... I MEAN Forest of Giant Plants. And even then I would only play 2 at most of the BREAK card. Normal Chesnaught is just good enough to be playable with Bats and Ariados to get some extra damage. Zoroark BREAK is...

    'Blue Impact' / 'Red Flash' Japan's XY8 Sets, Next Set Block Titled 'XY: BREAK!'

    I'm digging a lot of the stage 2's in this set. Namely Chesnaught, Empoleon, Typhlosion, and Gallade. Chesnaught with Forretress or Bats could be pretty beastly (like it's artwork. So much rage!) Empoleon can fit into decks thanks to Archie if you really wanted to. Typhlosion on it's own is...
