So... When SM base set comes out, the card I was most excited about (besides golden balls) was Decidueye GX. It has a decent Greninja matchup, and a horrible Volcanion matchup. The rest are meh. But because Volcanion will (in my theory) be a much stronger deck post SM, I teched a Muk, as well as the Skull Grunt for the matchup. The only reason I don't feel like this will totally overshadow Greninja is because it can mass evolve and can attack really quickly. And since I can't attack early on in the game, that's why I still feel like this loses to Volcanion. I still feel like this has potential, and quite possibly has the abilty to become competitively usable. Any ideas to make this concept better? I though I would also like to mention that along with Volcanion, I believe Vileplume will also become very prominent.
