Ability: Beast Box finally gets some legit draw support. Nice synergy with Ultra Space stadium. Main Attack: Triple Acceleration energy helps here, since it’ll get discarded anyway. Good for hitting Dedenne’s on the bench. GX: Weird/annoying that it’s for one lightning. Essentially a worse...

Welder would be really good IMO even without the draw 3 bonus. Doesn’t have to go on fire Pokémon either the way it looks.. you could power up an Eevee/Snorlax on T1 with this and a DCE.

Venusaur (SHL) + double beast ring = surprise Beast Game GX for the win!

Good option in a counter deck as well & love the free retreat. Also KO’s Banette-GX w/cb if shrine is in play.

Maganium- Free rare candy is nice, but wait, it doesn’t say anything about not evolving the turn the basic was put down. So basically it’s sort of like Forest of Giant Plants but you don’t need the stage 1!? Or the old way rare candy worked? And it works on any type of Pokémon. This could...

I would take out the Bulu for a Lurantis GX. Hitting for likely 80-110(w/band) for one energy while accelerating 2 seems better than what Bulu provides.

Yeah I’d go 3-3 or 3-2 for the Lucario line. The article on the main page today has a pretty good list, it also recommends using a regirock ex but I struggle to find the bench space for it (it’s also an easy two prizes against zoropod). Helps hit some key numbers though

You can two shot a hoopa with a riolu + strong energy. Also in my testing acerola has been underwhelming. My opponent almost never swings into Lucario unless they’re one hit KO’ing, and if they do hit for 100-120, you’ll probably want to respond with the GX attack. So I play 2 acerola, 4...

-4 Order Pad (not sure what the strategy behind this is..) +2 Brigette (at least). W/o turn one Brigette Leafeon’s GX attack is fairly worthless. +2 Field Blower (to remove garbotoxin) I like the concept overall, but my biggest concern with this deck is that with 3 Lurantis promos and a choice...

How about powering up Dialga, do the GX attack for 2 prizes (on a Lele,etc), then Ninja Boy on the extra turn into Dusk Mane Necrozma for 220/250 with band?

@maximusrtc defeated @politoed12 , 2 games to 1 in Round 6. Some really great intense games- thanks for playing!

I assume this Lucario stacks so if you had 2-3 in play this would be pretty ridiculous. Not only could you search out your Cynthia's but also rare candy's/Garchomps so you can continue to stream attackers. Also, fairy weakness on Garchomp won't be nearly as scary with so much metal love in SM5.

@maximusrtc won 2-0 against @thewayne012 thanks for playing and good luck the rest of the way

I love the possibilities Clover opens up in some unusual decks. Even in some potential mainstream decks it could be fun. A nice target for Alolan Raticate GX’s item search GX attack. Also could be easily searched with Algorithm GX. You could recover all 4 late game with Gardy’s GX, or pull 3...

@maximusrtc defeated @MoFoTY86 2-0 in round 3. Thanks for playing and good luck the rest of the way!

Interesting new mechanic. I don’t love bringing back evolution Pokemon as big basics, but it’s certainly balanced by the “one-of” rule. I think it’s important to note that a non ex/gx is not as easy to OHKO at 160hp since choice band wouldn’t help (w/FFB this almost assuredly survives) . You...

@maximusrtc won 2-1 against @Nobodyshero2727 Thanks for playing and best wishes the rest of the way!

Drifblim has interesting potential as a hard counter to spread decks, but how many decks are realistically finding space to tech in a 1-1 line of this just for that situation. Plus if you’re playing a spread deck and see your opponent drop a drifloon, it obviously becomes your #1 priority. I...
