Standard Golisopod Filth Deck

[joffreyspikes]

With the new Shining Celebi allowing you to copy the attacks of your previous evolutions, I think it would be pretty cool to use GRI Wimpod’s Scamper Away attack to cleanse your Golisopod-GX of all of their damage counters. Supported by Acerola and Bodybuilding Dumbbells, this deck could be a real pain for decks that can’t hit numbers of 210.

Gardevoir would need 5 Energy +Band or 6 Energy to OHKO
It is impossible for Drampa and Zoroark BREAK.
Garb would find it tricky (would need 11 items plus Band to OHKO)
Impossible for Golisopod.

Thought I would try a Sycamore-less build that uses Random Receiver over Lele spam (nothing to do with budget, I just genuinely think it does a better job in this deck.)

What do you think? More Leles? A fourth Acerola/Guzma? Please leave advice below!

I might be missing something, but is the Shining Celebi even in this list currently?

I think this is a very interesting idea. The only issue with the concept is that you are using your attack for turn on recovery whereas Acerola allows you to recover and attack for turn, and the wimp out wimpod is in every way superior due to its ability and synergy with heavy ball. Golisopod GX is actually a pretty fortunate budget deck where it can ignore Lele & Brigette and just play 4 Ultra Ball and 4 Heavy Ball. That should get you your golisopod GX very consistently.

It will take experimentation, but I think this definitely has validity.

I will let more experienced Golisopod GX players comment on the card counts themselves, but I would definitely increase the Lele count and reduce random receiver counts.
