Pokemon:
Strategy:
Main strategy is to get Pyroar out or Charizard-EX out and quickly set up fire energies onto them using a combination of Professor's Letter, Ultra Ball, and Blacksmith in one or two turns and end the game with M-Charizard EX or Pyroar. Mewtwo-EX is there to attack Pokemon with lots of energies but usually ends up dead or not dealing enough damage to one shot them so I may take it out. Keldeo-EX is there to rush in and retreat my pokemon to cure status's or to rush in and stall while I set up a Charizard EX on the bench to mega evolve. Jirachi EX is there to fetch blacksmith or other supporters. Originally had two Skyla but took both out to put a Jirachi EX and a Random Receiver although fetching an Ultra Ball was nice at times.
Evosoda to evolve pokemon quickly, everything else is to help draw quickly or get energy quickly. 2 N's because I usually take a lot of prizes or do not want to help the opponent in anyway most of the time.
Concerns:
I currently have 38 Wins out of 50 in PTCGO with this deck and it usually loses to Blastoise, Beartic, Yveltal decks and decks with a lot of Hypnotoxic Lasers and Virbank Gyms especially if I cannot set up fast enough. I've read suggestions to include bicycles or adding more item draw cards instead of supporter type ones but I do worry about Seismitoad EX. I am also considering taking some trainer cards out to include a 2-0-2 Delphox draw engine to speed up the process since sometimes I do run out of cards quickly or that my opponent used N midgame and leaves me with 4 cards. Leafeon sounds like a good way to deal with Blastoise and Beartic decks and possiblly Yveltal EX although I'm having lots of trouble fitting these cards into a 60 card deck. Also I don't have an ACE spec card yet because I don't know which one to use and I don't have it in the game yet and when phantom forces comes out, I should put in a VS seeker but I don't know what to take out.
Maybe instead of worrying about counters to the deck, I should focus on getting M Charizard EX ready as fast as possible and attack for game? Thanks for the help in advanced. =D
