    Junk Hunts vs Lysandre's Trump Card

    RE: Junk Hunts vs Lysandre's Trump Card? LTC is obviously the winner here, because it is way easier to fit in your deck and also way easier to utilize. It's not even hard to get another supporter in hand with all the VS Seekers that just came out.

    Playing Around Pyroar

    Mega Kangaskhan is a good counter in decks that can instantly power up an attacker in some form, like Bronzong, Aromatisse, or Blastoise. 3 Colorless and a Muscle Band can OHKO Pyroar and with 230 HP, it's going to take more than a couple Scorching Fangs to get rid of it. Kangaskhan can even...

    PokéBeach Create-A-Card: Nov. 2014 - Team M's/A's Pokemon — Congratulations to the winners!

    RE: PokéBeach Create-A-Card: Nov. 2014 - Team M's/A's Pokemon I'm going to have to drop out this time :( Stuck at grandparents for a while with their junky computer

    Donphan / Sigilyph / Wobbuffet

    He may need Kyurem more than Zekrom, because Donphan might be more popular at Cities. Sigilyph is ok against Yveltal anyways.

    Regirock Promo with Ancient Trait in 'CoroCoro Ichiban' [11/21]

    I have no idea why, but every single time I look at these cards I like them less and less. I want to like it, and it's a pretty cool new way to do art that I would never have thought of, but they just don't look like Pokemon cards or something.

    Where to Buy Clearly Fake Cards Online?

    I'd say if you want to give the full effect, use one of those silly card generators that you print out and glue onto another card. Nothing is more fake-looking yet real than those :P. Since there is not much of a market for fake cards, people usually just sell them at flea markets or whatever...

    Draw Supporter Choices

    A kid at my league used Battle Reporter for 9 cards and it was the funniest thing ever, so I wouldn't write it off as an absolute piece of junk just yet. Cheren/Tierno are the worst draw supporters to me. Before I got a little higher in the PTGCO ranks, I didn't lose a single battle because...

    Worlds 2015 in Boston, No TCG LCQ [11/19]

    At least that was a halfway decent show. Every last show on Disney today is terrible, and I think they even play Michelle Obama commercials. Errr this is off topic. I really don't get the point of removing the LCQ, unless TPCi was tired of people getting in Worlds that didn't even get enough...

    Was Phantom Forces a Let Down for Anyone Else?

    Phantom Forces has actually become my favorite XY set, and was not a letdown at all. I honestly thought I didn't like the set until I got my hands on some of the awesome purple booster packs at a prerelease. I'm still kicking myself for wasting money on tons of Furious Fists because Phantom...

    Pokémon You Want to See as an EX

    RE: What Cards do You Want to See in the Next Set? While Broken Time Space is something I have asked for myself in the past, I think it would hurt more than you would think. Yes, there would be a million new deck possibilities, but do you honestly want to have to deal with T1 Garbodors?

    (2) South Koreans Cancel Pokemon Parades, ORAS Anime Short [11/17]

    If that whole Gangnam Style thing wasn't enough a couple years ago, I think this is further evidence that South Korea knows how to party. Just look at the solid layer of people covering the ground.

    (2) Hoenn Collection Box, Treasure Tin [11/11]

    In tournaments that would be metagaming, where you look at which decks are likely to be played the most and play the deck that has a good matchup against it.

    Is Garbodor Hitting the Trash Heap?

    You mentioned that Garbodor with Yveltal reached it's peak towards the end of the 2014 season, which was also when Pyroar was one of the biggest threats. I'd say that if Garbodor decks are slightly fading for any reason, it's because Pyroar is really not the big anymore. Garbodor should jump...

    Swampert, Sceptile, Torchic Promo with 'Ancient Traits' [11/13]

    Well, calling them "Half Arts" seems kind of lame to me. And I'm not too keen on hearing "fart" whenever someone says "Half Art". I vote on calling them either full arts (let's face it, there is art all over that card save for the borders) or Ancient Pokemon. "Whoa! I just pulled a frakin...

    Metagross EX / M Metagross-EX in 'Mega Metagross-EX Premium Collection' [11/12]

    I think this is going to cap off at $60 USD. I'm going off of the ETB here, as this box includes 2 EX cards, a jumbo EX, and a playmat instead of a thick cardboard box with energy cards and some decorative plastic dice.

    Night March

    RE: Night March OP, Or is it? I played against Night March a few times using Yveltal/Garbodor, and it was pretty quick to set up but too fragile. Here's how one of the games I remember went: I hit a MewEX with Oblivion Wing, then OHKO another with MewtwoEX. MewtwoEX is return KO'd by the other...

    ManVirGen (M Manectric EX / Virizion EX / Genesect EX)

    First off I think you should either add 1 Regigigas or 1 Town Map. Regigigas can be powered up by an Emerald Slash+attachment, then OHKO Suicune/Sigilyph using Daunt with a Muscle Band attached. Town Map is better, especially because Regigigas is weak to Fighting. If your G Booster is prized...

    YSG (Yveltal EX / Seismitoad EX / Garbodor)

    I honestly don't think CharizardEX is necessary, nor was it ever. Just having Garbotoxin gives you a favorable Vir/Gen match up. Instead of wasting space on a card that will be dead in quite a few games, try fitting 2 Head Ringer, which is a great card and usable against 80% of the top-tiered...

    Full Metal Jacket (Cobalion EX / Dialga EX / Bronzong)

    I agree on the Cobalion/Aegislash thing, but 2 Fan Club would create a "Supporter clash" problem, and Skyla is less situational anyways. You currently have 6 attackers and they are all EX, so you may want to include a 7th prize non-EX, unless you plan on sacrificing a Bronzor every game. As...

    Flare Hyper Gear: Hype vs. Reality

    Oy, good luck finding the space for that. If you can pull it off though, that'd be hilarious to see 4 useless GenesectEXs. :)
