How much Energy do YOU use?

[kwisdumb]

This is kind of a silly question as it all depends on what deck you use. If you run 10 water energy in Gyarados I would think you're a poor player, however running that number in a different deck might be a great play.

 

[festizzio]

I have a question. If a deck is 60 cards, then why run 6-7. You only have a 1 in 10 chance in drawing one. How do you make sure you get them.

4x Roseanne's Research
2x Claydol
1x Uxie
2x Professor Oak's New Theory

Basically, search + draw cards. Also, if you're only using one energy to attack, then you don't need to draw 2-3 energy in your opening hand.

 

[NinjaSamurai]

Oh, okay. I run 4 Roseanne's Research. I have another question though how would you get them from your discard pile?

 

[Emperor]

Oh, okay. I run 4 Roseanne's Research. I have another question though how would you get them from your discard pile?

energy restore (bad card)
Night Maintenance (a staple in all decks)
Aarons Collection
Energy Returner
Palmer's Contribution
Energy Pickup (these would attach the energy onto a pokemon straight away)

Night Maintenance or Palmer' would be the better choice as get back both energy and pokemon. Aarons should only be run in P based decks.

 

[NinjaSamurai]

Oh okay, thank you very much. I think I just need to change my deck in general.

 

[#1weavile]

Shuppet - 2
SP toolbox - 10
luxchomp - 10
sablelock - 10
blaziken/infernape/garchomp - 10
current deck -10

See a pattern

 

[Pencil]

8-14, depending on the deck.

 

[sealjulian7]

I use
4-water
2-electric
2-grass
2-py
2-dark
2-d colorless
2-rainbow

 

[juunkmilk]

8 {P} and 1 call in my cursegar

2 basic {D} 4 special {D} 4 DCE and 1 {P} in my sablock

so 9 and 11

 

[Elk-Dimension]

Running one Call is more pointless than I can even mention. Just saying. I think in my CurseGar I run like... 7{P} ad 4 Call? IDK.

 

[dmaster]

6-Jumpluff
6-Betty
8-Gyarados
12-Gaga
14-Cursegar
15-Dialga/Chomp

dmaster out.

 

[Donqueen 14]

i use about 10 in my donqueen

 

[cataha]

I have about a dozen. I need it because I run GarPharos. My new deck I hope will be meta! Double Colorless is huge in here.

 

[Juliacoolo]

4 DCE
4 Call
2 Fighting in flychamp

3 Lightning
4 DCE
2 Call
1 Darkness
2 SP in Papa (I think)
