camoclone said:You are totally right... The only thing Jirachi sacrifices is the game. It's an easy easy easy 2 prizes which can be the difference between a win and loss. Not to mention you expect to draw a Scoop Up Cyclone right after you drop Jirachi? No... The only thing I would ever even consider dropping a Jirachi in is Klinklang.Aggressiv said:The thing about jirachi is it doesn't sacrafice consistency, but rather adds it. Especially if you run level ball. Like if you whiff a supporter in hand but have a pokemon search card you can stay in the game instead of drawing dead. Makes things pretty consistent IMO, I dunno I've tested it and scramble switch. Long story short I think jirachi is good in blastoise, and scramble switch is bad. I wouldn't ever say that playing computer search or dowsing machine over Scoop up Cyclone is the wrong choice, I just think the latter is better. Especially with jirachi in the deck. And I mean it creates a lot of openings for you too. Like if you're playing garbodor, set up a blastoise put a bunch of energy down on keldeos but still have the blastoise in play it will most likely get catcher stalled out, but if you have SUC you can scoop it up if you get all your energy in play before garbodor and really if you have 2 keldeos powered up even with a garbodor you'll probably still win. Especially if you have scrapper to double rush in avoiding poison.
Hey man you're free to have your opinion, but when you're ohkoing everything sacraficing two prizes instead of a blastoise or attacker leaves room to come back and attack instead of taking pressure. Not to mention Jwittz played Jirachi eggs in blastoise with SUC and made T20 out of 110+ players. People are really easy to hate on jirachi when really it can save your game having a supporter when you're drawing dead.
