Anti-Meta Bouffalant/Garbodor

I had an idea for an Anti-Meta/Plasma Deck featuring Drifblim DE, Sableye, Garbodor, and Mewtwo EX. But after some further consideration/debate, I opted to focus on a more broad spectrum, and thus went with Bouffalant as the main attacker.

Pokemon: 13
  • 3-2 Garbodor DE
  • 4 Bouffalant DE
  • 3 Sableye DEX
  • 1 Sawk PLB
Trainers: 36
  • 4 N
  • 4 Professor Juniper
  • 2 Bianca
  • 1 Skyla
  • 4 Hypnotoxic Laser
  • 4 Silver Bangle
  • 3 Pokemon Catcher
  • 3 Ultra Ball
  • 3 Float Stone
  • 2 Silver Mirror
  • 2 Virbank City Gym
  • 1 Level Ball
  • 1 Enhanced Hammer
  • 1 Tool Scrapper
  • 1 Computer Search
Energy: 11
  • 7x Dark Energy
  • 4x Double Colorless Energy
Strategy:
The purpose of the Deck is to be Anti-Meta and have the capability to not lose outright to other Decks.

  • Sableye to Junk Hunt Lasers, Catchers, Scrapper, Hammer, or your own Tools.
  • Garbodor to shut down enemy Abilities like Power Connect, Overflow, Verdant Wind, Deluge, Red Signal, etc.
  • Bouffalant with a Bangle and Laser can OHKO any EX Pokemon, with Silver Mirror he can be pretty hard to get rid of (which is especially important for getting the 2 Energy necessary onto him), and only gives away 1 Prize.
  • Sawk PLB, I decided to add 1 of because I realized that for just 1 Energy, he has the potential to Donk a Thundurus/Darkrai/Absol with a Bangle and Laser in hand.
After much debate, (with myself), I decided to drop the Drifblims for Bouffalant, as well as the Mewtwo EX.

Tell me what you guys think ^.^
(PS. What is the abbreviation for Dark Explorers? Cuz DE=Dragons Exalted.. >_<)
 
RE: Anti-Meta Drifblim/Garbodor/Mewtwo-EX

Garbodor shuts down Drifblim's ability.... so I would suggest taking him out:

Remove:
3-2 Garby Line-up

Add:
Either 3 Ultra Balls, another Level Ball, and possibly another enhanced.

Also, you would probably want to take Mirror's if you already run Hypnobank to counter it further.

So just remove 4 Bangles for 4 Mirrors basically. Also, its DEX

Yeah, that's why I had included the DCE, but now that I think about it, it's kind of a waste just for 70 damage and an Energy Discard. Might as well run no PLB Drifblim, and only DE Drifblim, and up the E.Hammer count.

(Or just drop Drifblim line entirely for Bouffalant..)

Edit:
I opted to drop the Drifblims and Mewtwo EX entirely, in place of Bouffalant. I also added more Ultra Balls and dropped Level Balls to 1.
1 Enhanced Hammer is usually enough, as it is less dead cards when not against TDK/ViriGen, and can be recycled with Junk Hunt. Although I think I'd need more Skyla, to be able to search out exactly the Item I'd need (be it Scrapper, Hammer, Laser, etc..), but I guess that's what Comp Search is for... >_<

Garbodor shuts off bouffer too.

Ah, good to know. Good thing I wasn't too attached to it. :p
Cuz lets face it, without Mirror, Bouffalant will get OHKO no matter what.. But the same is true for every other Pokemon out there, except something with Safeguard (When against an EX, without Garbodor, and no G Booster hijinks that is..)
 
In your list you're using psychic energies, yet you also have Sableye, who will find it impossible to Junk Hunt without the dark energies.
I'm assuming you meant it to be dark energies :p ?

Ah, yeah. Good catch. xD
 
Oh no, you don't want 4 Boufy. Mewtwo is a very solid attacker, exceeding Boufy's potential. Cut out 2 Boufy and if you could fit in 3 Mewtwo, that would be solid.
 
I feel like this needs a couple more Skyla's to search out those Lasers/Virbanks when you really need em.. I've dropped from this list a Juniper and added in another Skyla. Maybe look to run at least two.

So been testing this - had a couple of games against Haxorus decks and struggled. However, I feel with better starts (I had shocking starts) it could also beat this deck quite easily.
