Dialga-EX - Metal - HP180
Basic Pokemon
Ability: Time Distortion
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may flip a coin. If heads, search in your discard pile for a Pokemon and put it onto your bench as a Basic Pokemon. (Stage 1 and Stage 2 will be treated as a Basic Pokemon).

Ability: Time Switch
When you put this Pokemon from your hand onto your bench, you may use this ability. If you do, search in your deck for 2 Pokemon cards and put them in your discard pile. Shuffle your deck afterward.

(M)(M)(C) Roar of Time 120
Move an Energy attached to Dialga EX to one of your Benched Pokemon.

Weakness: Fire (x2)
Resistance: -20 Psychic
Retreat: 3
 
Second ability, meh. And also, where are the attacks? You can't really have a card with no attacks. Resistance should be -30.
 
Arceus-EX - Colorless - HP180
Basic Pokemon

(C)(C) Spotting Roar
Put a roar counter on the Defending Pokemon. (Remove the counter if the Pokemon evolves or devolves)

(C)(C)(C) Healing Roar
Remove a roar counter from one of your opponent's Pokemon. If you do, remove all damage counters and Special Conditions from Arceus-EX.

(C)(C)(C)(C) Ultimate Roar
Knocked Out one of your opponent's Pokemon with a roar counter on it.

All resistance are -20. And this Pokemon has 2 abilities, it shouldn't have an attack. For the second ability, it can be very useful against pokemon like Blastoise or eels. But you will play this card only for the first ability.
 
Arceus EX... No. Just no.
My advice to you is to stick with some decent damage with an effect, and stay away from counters. I would change the attacks to:

(C) (C) Healing Cry
Discard 2 energy attached to Arceus EX and remove all damage counters from Arceus EX.

(C) (C) (C) (C) Judgement- 150
Arceus EX cannot use Judgement on your next turn.
 
If I remember, there was a Feraligatr in Delta Species that won a lot of tournaments with similar attacks. I think it can be playable. You can't remove any counters from EX. So you can easily KO them if you have energy acceleration.

Explain how a Pokemon would have 2 abilities. There is no Pokemon with 2 abilities on the cards or the games, and all sorry about the resistances, I forgot about it being 20. Don't know why I thought 30. I'm just trying to help so you can make some really good cards

That's an old card, and it's not that you can't remove damage counters from an EX, it's that there hasn't been one that does it yet.

EDIT- If you were talking about the "Roar counters," then that card is broken and would be banned from tournament use.
 
There is Heatran lvl X with 2 ability (1 poke-power and 1 poke-body) and no attacks. That's why, I made this Dialga like this. It's a support card for evolved cards. With this cards, I think that Stage 1 or Stage 2 cards can be very good and can come back in the format.


For arceus EX, I was talking about roar counters that you put with the first attack. I don't know if it will be banned. It's very good but need a lot of energies and set up or energy acceleration. And it's still 2 turns to kill an EX.
 
Poke-Powers and Poke-bodies are very different from abilities. Lv.X Pokemon can also use attacks from the previous form, so it did have an attack.
I do really like Dialga's first ability, but I don't like the second one at all, and it needs to be replaced by an attack.

With Arceus,it can abuse DCE, and it can instantly kill any EX even if it's benched. There would be no way to get rid of a "Roar Counter" for any EX, and this entire format relies heavily on EX's and basics.
 
I changed the ability. Is it better?

For Arceus EX, it needs 2 DCE to KO an EX. It's almost this with Lugia EX and Deoxys EX. But you need one turn before to put the counter on the Defending Pokemon.
 
Dialga's attack should be Roar of Time, since it's Dialga's signature move. It should take (M) (M) (C) (C) and do 120 damage with an extra effect.


Arceus- Turn 1- DCE, place Raor Counter on EX. Turn 2- DCE, kill EX.

Lugia need at least 3 turns to attack, and 2 attacks to kill most EX's, since one of the energies needs to be Plasma, so it would use 1 DCE, 1 Random energy, and 1 Plasma, then it would do 120, not enough to kill most EX's, and even with a presence of 4 Deoxys, it would still only do 160, with most EX's have 170/180 HP


I honestly think that you should take off Dialga's second ability and replace it with an attack. It's already good enough with Ultra Balls.
 
If you have Lugia, 2 Deoxys, 2 colress machine, 1 DCE, 1 Virbank and 1 Hypnotoxic Laser, it's a First turn kill. I know it's a god hand, but it's easy to do with juniper. And Enhanced Hammer is played a lot. It slow down Arceus EX a lot.

The poison would kill the defending Pokemon, negating Lugia's ability, so you would have to use all those cards for the same amount of prizes that a Keldeo could easily take.
 
Yes but Keldeo can't do this on the first turn. Lugia can. Arceus can't kill on the first turn. It needs set up and hammertime can kill it easily. The card is good but I don't know if it's so good that you have to ban it.
 
I barely see many hammers anymore, and the attack is an automatic OHKO regardless of any effects. I would think it was much better if is wasn't called a Roar Counter (I think the name is slightly strange), and the attack did 100 damage instead of an instant OHKO.

Lugia can only kill first turn if you get an absolutely insane hand, which is EXTREMELY unlikely. Both decks would most likely get a T2 kill.
