I agree that this could be an okay one-of in Solgaleo for the odd weakness matchup, it's a meh card but it's not unplayable. Most of the UBs are in that place, everyone calls them horrible when they're strictly okayish, something you could play in casuals or online effectively but not...

2 stage 2 lines in the same deck is pretty bleh to play around with. I play a similar list without Dusknoir and seldom feel I'd be better off with it. As was said, Garb and Trev are everywhere in expanded. 2-1-2 Aegislash is ideal, you almost never want to actually power up and play more than...

As everyone has said, the main issue with this deck is Espeon-EX destroys it and a lot of people are running it. It will be a fun casual deck but I don't see it going anywhere at a high level. You absolutely have to play it this way for it to be effective though imo, without omega barrier you...

I don't like playing Typhlosion in standard anymore without VS seekers so I've come up with a new BS random jank fire deck. for November ##Pokémon - 17 * 2 Cubone BKT 77 * 1 Marowak FAC 37 * 2 Marowak CRI * 4 Numel CRI * 4 Camerupt CRI * 2 Victini GRI 10 * 2 Tapu Lele-GX GRI 60 ##Trainer...

There are more than two good cards in the set. Most of the cards you call bad are just average. Not every card is immediately gamebreaking and it's good for game balance that this is the case. If we had a Garbodor every set powercreep would destroy this game. There are lots of cards in the set...

SM base is worse than this set with FOGP removed honestly. Lurantis and Decidueye are both dead, Tauros is wayyy weaker with choice band and tool removal back in the game and Lapras is hard to play with less items in the meta (though still a decent card). I guess you still have SR ultras and...

Magikarp would be interesting for gyara AOR, but Shining Celebi makes the flail magikarp the best one.

Milotic is probably the most interesting new revelation imo, not because it's super amazing or anything but because it allows for some hitherto impossible stall strats in combination with Koko Promo. Once you get a flip down you can keep your opponent from building a field pretty well, and every...

I seriously hope they're just doing this for SHL because it's a special set. Removing all of the chase cards from sets and putting them in $40 boxes is ridiculous.

You want 4 Kingdra for max consistency. You should choose either the Vulpix, Octillery or Starmie to double down on, running them all 1-1 will really hurt your consistency. I'd drop Octillery/Remoraid and double up on Starmie since it guarantees you can attack every turn and Staryu is fine to...

This is interesting, with Guzma everywhere and support being limited in standard I can't see it doing that well there. Expanded though, Virbank and Seviper can get you to 110 damage poison for one attachment, just 2 vipers gets you to 90 which 2HKOs most basic GX/EX cards. Granted there's even...

For some reason I was thinking it had 130hp.

this indirectly confirms a lot of cards. 120 damage and attaching a basic energy from your discard is huge because it will let you chain attackers very well. Jolteon-EX, Glaceon-EX and Drampa all strike me as logical partners. But this card should be the focus of any deck it's in, the drives...

The more successful Marshadow toolbox style decks I see run Jolteon/Glaceon-EX (much like the old Mew/Vileplume toolboxes) and go for slow chip damage games instead of explosive plays like a fast Kiawe. The only issue is that getting them in discard is slightly more difficult than getting them...

Golem is sadly terrible but that Gyarados card has potential. High HP for a stage 1 GX, the attack is very high cost but will OHKO almost anything. Babygyara exists as a one prizer that can hit 150 base in the lategame. No omega barrier unlike primal don but it has slightly better acceleration...

the fact that everyone plays guzma makes special conditions kind of crappy right now regardless.

Both, but Turt should be at a higher count. If you want to consistently get the t1 Kiawe you have to invest too heavily in Ho-ohs to improve your odds of a Ho-oh start. Just having one is decent for weakness matchups though. Also just to be clear, Steam Up does not increase Salazzle's damage...

Fun meme deck idea but not going to be effective, maybe if that attack was on a stage 1 it'd be okay. I don't think the HP is 'spiraling out of control', stage 2s have had too little HP for a long time compared to big basics. Since the old big basics are still around in expanded you can't just...

I'd run Raikou but I like Raichu XY a little more as a one prize attacker in this variant simply because you don't want to stack energy on Raikou to scale above the 110 base damage mark, while Raichu XY takes one less attachment to get to 160 base, 190 with choice band which OHKOs all basic...
