Top 5 (no order)
Yveltal (EX and non), Aromatisse, Xerneas (non-ex), Prof. Letter, Rainbow Energy
Trevanant does nothing this format when it gets one shotted by everything. The only reason Gothitelle was good was becasue of Accelgor. Now, Accelgor can't be good because of Virizion.
Emolga EX is bad, Skarmory EX is bad, gourgeist is meidocre at best, Greninja is very good actually, Tauros is meh
Notable card: Vivillon - 4 Energy cards + Silver Bangle OHKO's Darkrai. I'm not saying it's good, but we shall see.
Because everyone runs Virizion/Genesect. In fact, I think that will get real popular when we get a Fire themed set in the spring.
Skarmory is also bossin with the kling klangs and the item snipes and the two hit KO'S and the one retreat cost
Emolga however is a binder warmer until an electric deck will come along, and you know one will .

Looking forward to this set!
Anyone know of pull rates? Debating whether I should buy a box.
what do the reverse holo's look for the Pokemon,Trainer,Energy's?
Why does XY lack common trainers like Switch, Potion, and Poke Ball? They were in every other base set.

and thank god for it.
Still, Scarmory EX is bad. Tooldrop isn't nearly as popular as it used to be: it has kinda lost its hype. Therefore considering this card soley for the purpose of countering tooldrop doesn't seem like a very smart choice. Skarmory doesn't even have a clear win against Tool Drop since it only discards the tools of the defending Pokemon. The only that it has going for it, is that it's a metal type which means it can go along with any Klinklang variant.Eron said:
However Delphox has a LOT of potential. Its ability is basically a free Bianca each turn. With the possibilty to have this more than once on your bench. If that isn't enough its attack is the fire type version of Keldeo EXs' Secret Sword, which OHKOs any Virizion OR Genesect EX for 3 fire energies. Combine all that goodness with Inferno Fandango and a future hard hitting Fire type EX (Charizard EX/ M Charizard EX anyone?) and you've got yourself BDIF right there.
However the meta isn't going to be that black and white (no pun intended). As I see it TPCi is forcing a meta with threeway of Grass-Water-Fire (With their respective Gen 1 Mega evolutions to hopefully go along with it) while Dark and Fairy also having a pressence.DNA said:
It won't stop people to play Fire types because of Keldeo EX just like people haven't stopped playing Keldeo EX because of Genesect EX. I think the meta is and will be diverse enough to play something that has a counter.
I didn't get the non-intended pun.daoneandonly said:
Genesect EX avoiding Keldeo EX to be played?
It has never done that. Because Keldeo EX is not the only attacker in that deck, for example BKEX with Black Ballista. But whenever I play against VirGen with Keldeo/Blastoise it's hard to win.
Yeah, actually I hope we get a GREAT Fire Deck, as Keldeo/Blastoise or VirGen to counter VirGen.
The only Fire-type attacker right now that's used is Reshiram BW, as an aside in Rayboar, to bolster the matchup (also because Fire). I don't see Fire getting an entire deck, not yet.
Now do you get it?
