We have a new deck that I have been testing like crazy and no matter how over saturated this deck is in Deck Garage or Metagame Discussion, I'm talking about it and my own -not really- ideas for it. This is a full deck, not a skeleton, but feel free to give me constructive criticism in the comments about this deck. According to my sources, this deck is a "Secret winner" at a top eight tourney for nats and has been revealed recently. Enough rambling, let's get into the list and the strategy: (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧Yay ✧゚・: *ヽ(◕ヮ◕ヽ)

Pokemon (13)
  • 3x Darkrai-EX -Main-ish attacker
  • 2x Garbodor -Rip Abilities
  • 2x Giratina-EX -Secondary-ish attacker
  • 1x Hoopa-EX -Get dem EXs
  • 1x Hydreigon-EX -For a special purpose, I'll elaborate on it later
  • 2x Shaymin-EX -Draw Power!
  • 2x Trubbish -Evolution
Trainers (35)
  • 1x AZ
  • 1x Escape Rope
  • 2x Fighting Fury Belt
  • 2x Float Stone
  • 1x Lysandre
  • 4x Max Elixir
  • 2x N
  • 1x Captivating Pokepuff (Look it up boi)
  • 4x Professor Sycamore
  • 2x Sky Field
  • 1x Pokemon Ranger (Look it up gurl)
  • 2x Switch
  • 4x Trainers' Mail
  • 4x Ultra Ball
  • 4x VS Seeker
Energy (12)
  • 8x Darkness Energy
  • 4x Double Dragon Energy

Now, this deck isn't exactly about the Pokemon combo, it's about the match-ups. This deck doesn't have very many (Metaphorical) weaknesses. But, this deck can kill most meta decks, such as (I've done this myself) Trevenant Break, Mega Rayquaza, Greninja Break, Vespiquen/ Vileplume, Jolteon/Glaceon, and some others. Hydreigon destroys Jolteon-EX and other anti Basic/EX Pokemon. I've been testing this deck on some other online platforms (Don't ban me bro) where people like to spam meta decks for me to shut down. I love Sky Field in this deck for the fast set up in the beginning then, when it's discarded, get rid of the Hoopa-EX, then the Shaymins. Switches are very good in this deck for switching out Darkrai-EX into Giratina-EX or for countering Lysandre. Pokemon Ranger is anexcellent addition to this deck because it removes the counter to this deck... Seismitoad-EX. (For My Budget) This is not an extremely expensive for me to buy the cards in which spites me to go buy all of these cards tonight and maybe attempt to wreck some decks at my league and/or local tournaments. Garbodor can kill Shaymin-EXs on turn two allowing your opponent a slow and painful game. Regardless, I don't feel like playing Puzzle of Time in this because there is no room for four of them, so please don't spam me with that (or you can if you want because I don't care). I am reading all of your comments and suggestions, get to me soon because I will be ordering this deck soon! :]
