umbreon is just a tech for some decks


this deck is my idea for HGSS-on format

RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on

You could add +1 poke collector and +2 rare candy for the last 3 spots
always helps to get basics out! and the more rare candys the more chance you will get one
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on

thanks
anymore suggestions?
some poke,some cards to speed set up or anything that will help thanks
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on

Add two communications for better consistency. Take out the candies and add two special dark because candies suck in the new format. Add a second stage one of serperior (can't think of name) because you won't have candies in my plan. And that fills your three spots. Also what are these max restores you have? Add the newest alph to look at your prizes so you can arrange as needed. Two more fighting energies would be nice for consistency. Then you could always add two smeargle since they are normally useful. That's all I got ATM. Good luck
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on

thanks
max restore heals my pokemon forgot how many it will heal LOL
i think all but discard all energy on the pokemon since i use almost 1 energy that would be not that big

i change my list :)
i add pokegear since there will be lot of supporters
i think were back in the days just like the EX era
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on

Would you mind sending a link to show this max restore because I can't seem to find one to see what it is.
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (Needs division in thread title)

i see the B/W link in bulbapedia there is no max restore
what can i replace for it?
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Needs division in thread title)

If you want healing just use potions I guess.. They heal 30. or replace for super scoop up to have a chance to pick up your donphan.
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Needs division in thread title)

Well, you could use Blissy Prime. I always enjoy using that for max healing.
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Needs division in thread title)

Don't use blissey in this deck. She makes you discard energy on hurt pokemon
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Needs division in thread title)

i dont like potion even 30 damage it heals
any more suggestions?
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Seniors)

Life herbs can possibly heal 60 if you flip two heads but if both are tails they don't heal any. Or I got a better idea. Drop the max restores for two more switch to help with consistency and then add one more smeargle and one more fighting energy. Third smeargle to help you possibly start with one and the other fighting is to be safe. Or add two smeargle depending on how you feel
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Seniors)

thanks
how about droping max restores and stop adding healing trainer cards
and add something like you said

anymore suggestions :)
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Seniors)

Well since we're off the healing trainers go with two more switch, one smeargle (now I think about it four may be too much for this deck) and a fighting energy or two fighting and no third smeargle. Then you should be golden. Good luck
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Seniors)

thanks
do i have a good matchup w/ BlastGatr and lanturn prime using Umbreon UD?
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Seniors)

The thing is you should be earthquaking before blastgator gets setup. Even if they use candies they can't get a stage two until turn three with the new rules. And umbreon is a perfect lanturn prime counter. Just try to get one on your bench with a dark and another energy asap. Then you should be good.
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Seniors)

Anytime. Good luck with this deck. It should be great. Drop me a pm if you have any more specific questions
 
RE: Donphan Prime hgss-on (any) (Seniors)

^ Acctually it can set up Turn two with the new rules, provided Blastoise is in hand. The Errata only makes it so you can play it first turn, or the turn the Pokemon was played. BlastGatr IMO will rip this appart if they set up fast enough. But provided you get Donphan T2, your fine.
