I'm gonna play Garchomp Lv.X and Giratina Lv.X with a last resort Dragonite to be restored.
What does it matter? They're still KOd.Card Slinger J said:Giratina Lv. X is pretty much a dead card with Unown G being rampant in today's meta, Lost Zone? what Lost Zone?
Blue Thunder said:In theory, this would normally be great. However, the main reason I said that comment was because almost everything has 130HP, and Garchomp needs more than 1 PP to get there.
If we had a metagame where 110/120 HP ruled, it would be pretty good. However, we have more of a 130/140 HP instead, which gives Garchomp some big problems.
If the metagame shifts to an SP enviroment, I think it could see a little bit more play. However, I don't see that happening soon.
2HKOing Pokemon normally are much faster, or have a better benefit. Gigas is atrocious with hand/deck disruption, self-healing and energy acceleration. I doubt Torterra's holding up well. Also, three energy attacks with no energy accleration are not usually favored (I don't know why people are still considering Giratina an option).George2FRESH said:Without the PP, Garchomp 2HKO's things. But which Pokemon (Besides Slaking) doesn't? A lot of Pokemon 2HKO's most pokes due to the 130-140 HP, what makes Garchomp different? People like the 100 attack hits (Gigas, Torterra), and yet people doubt Garchomp who does 110?
I like him, the only thing that's stopping me from running him is Dialga.
