Okay, so this is my blastoise list. will cut a water energy if i ever obtain a computer search card. I dont like the archie style builds, and quite frankly i feel like Keldeo EX has a positive matchup against Yveltal decks with the right setup and it also can combat against metal and fairies rather well. So this is more of a traditional build focused around getting a turn 2 Blastoise and getting enough energies on Keldeo to turn 2 OHKO an Yveltal EX. the high number of retrievals allows me to trade willingly with yveltal decks and rough seas combats silent lab fairly well imo. i may decide to tech an yveltal ex or 2 of my own along with mabye 2 dark energies if i find that it is useful against the current meta, i have yet to test that build and i would rather run electrode in it to help my draw power if im gonna do that, or better yet, just have beach/ballista and run it in expanded instead. I do however think that this deck can still win and i am also considering a couple of mewtwo ex as well, and running ultra ball over dive in that case. Opinions?
