    Standard JGR for Nats, need help with a/l (Jolteon, Glaceon, Regice)

    Thank you both for the feedback. I will playtest both Zebstrika and Vileplume to see if either of them stick. My Zoroark matchup isn't as bad as I first imagined, simply because he can't copy Flash Ray if Jolteon isn't active. Just hit with Glaceon and it's fine, so that one's okay. Mainly my...

    Trevenant BREAK

    In my list I've been using Absol RS along with Super Scoop Ups to be able to win faster. Surprised it hasn't shown up here. Taking down tough EX'es, and Megas in particular can be really difficult, so being able to move all the damage over to a Shaymin or another easy kill helps a lot in those...

    M Manectric EX / Banette / Ninetales

    Banette only blocks the Defending Pokemon from evolving, so that might not be very effective...

    Everyone Is Making Gardevoir Decks, and I'm Just Sitting Here, Making a Camerupt Deck (Victini EX /

    I thought about something like this, and I really think Camerupt can work well. Is there maybe a possible Growth mule (stage 1) that can let you attach two energies per turn? Because if so, that plus Energy Switch and Blacksmith should let you hit for 200+ somewhat consistently. More so than...

    Volcano Searchers! (P Groudon-EX / Landorus(FFI) / Florges(FLF))

    I really like the idea of Shrine in here. I currently use 4 Scorching Earth / 2 Fighting Stadium, but honestly, the bonus damage from Fighting Stadium is doing very little for Groudon. Shrine, letting it attack for 2 energies even after MEvo'ing, seems more useful in a way. Which also means we...

    Volcano Searchers! (P Groudon-EX / Landorus(FFI) / Florges(FLF))

    RE: Plant Volcano! (P Groudon-EX / Breloom / Hawlucha) Is Breloom really necessary when you have Weakness Policy? It can't really hit that hard, when compared to PGroudon's 200+ damage. Another issue with it is that it can't use Strong Energy, being Grass type. Have you considered Landorus FuF...

    Sharp Discard and Regenerate (Sharpedo EX / Hydreigon)

    RE: Sharp Discard and Regenerate (Sharpedo EX / Hydreigon (PHF)) Interesting idea. I've wanted to make something with Sharpedo, but the best I could come up with was using Crawdaunt PRC along with Sharpedo's first attack to get people stuck. I'm not sure Leafeon can really do its job here...

    MaxieChamp (Medicham / Landorus / Hawlucha / Machamp)

    First of all, that's wrong. Top players will tell you that Jirachi is a huge risk. Not to mention that the most solid decks in the format would never include it in their list. Seismitoad variations? No Jirachi. Fairy Box? No Jirachi. Any variation that plays Yveltal or Manectric as key...

    MaxieChamp (Medicham / Landorus / Hawlucha / Machamp)

    Jirachi will get you killed. If that's worth it for consistency, then go ahead. I'd think not. And obviously if you're gonna use Battle Compressor there's no reason to play Computer Search over Dowsing Machine. You discard Machamp, an energy and Maxie, Dowse for Maxie. Or you could discard any...

    MaxieChamp (Medicham / Landorus / Hawlucha / Machamp)

    I love this idea, Machamp with Maxie is so good that I even used 1 of each in Lazy Groudon. I'm not sure how much consistency testing you've done, but if you need more drawpower I would put in Scorching Earth. It accelerates Lando as well in the earlygame (you have compressor, but this one is...

    Gaia Volcano (P Groundon EX / Landorus / Hawlucha)

    A Lando with Strong energy can take out Safeguard as well, so I think it's covered pretty well. Silent Lab might be a good idea though.

    Gaia Volcano (P Groundon EX / Landorus / Hawlucha)

    Ninetales in Aggron will NOT be a thing. Without it the matchup is even, they can OHKO each other and require the same setup. This deck with Weakness Policy has very few weaknesses, but 2-3 Robo Sub is essential IMO.

    Gaia Volcano (P Groundon EX / Landorus / Hawlucha)

    Even if people tech Ninetales (and assuming you can't Lysandre it right off the bat), it still isn't hard to climb the damage scale with Groudon. Because he can't be affected by trainers, any Strong Energy, Muscle Bands, etc. you put on him are completely safe. Also, the new supporter, Maxie...

    Gaia Volcano (P Groundon EX / Landorus / Hawlucha)

    I don't know how much you're willing to change the deck, but I really think Victini should be in here. Not only does it have more energy acceleration than Landorus, but if you play V-piece, it can insta-shutdown your biggest threat: VirGen. This will require some other changes however. - 3...

    Mewtrick 2.0 (M Manectric EX / Mew EX)

    RE: Mewtrick 2.0 ? There was a great MewNectric list on here a while back, not sure if it was yours, but if not here's a few tips: You definitely shouldn't run 4-1 Manectric. 2-2 or 3-2 works much better. 2 Spirit Link. Instead, put in some other attackers to copy. Rayquaza w/ Shred is a must...

    Speed Lugia EX Toolbox (Lugia EX / Deoxys EX / Eevee)

    It'll be interesting to see, in the new meta, how big Mega Evolutions will become. As it stands, playing Frozen City and capping Lugia at 180 damage (Band + 4 Deoxys) will take out pretty much anything without needing a secondary attacker. However, anything over 200 will really screw it over...

    Speed Lugia EX Toolbox (Lugia EX / Deoxys EX / Eevee)

    Personally I don't like Thundurus, but I get what it's about. My general thought here is that you shouldn't need to attack things you can't kill. Even with the Eevees. If you run into Seismitoad, you should get up some quick energies and Lysandre around him to grab kills where you can. Same with...

    Speed Lugia EX Toolbox (Lugia EX / Deoxys EX / Eevee)

    I think you should hold onto this setup. A Victini line like this is going to be extremely useful when PrC releases and VirGen goes through the roof. I suspect your consistency issues might come from the Eevees. As badly as I want an Eevee line to fit into Lugia, it just seems like it's always...

    The Broken Combination of Swampogre (Kyogre EX / Swampert)

    The wording is clear, as far as I can see. When you attach an energy specifically from your hand, double it. They shouldn't have to repeat the same sentence twice, it's entirely correct the way it stands. But of course, this is a translation. The English text will be different probably.
