Is anyone else worried about the next few sets?

^"That's why you either run Absol G Lv. X for Darkness Slugger or Honchkrow SV for Riot... "

Hmmm... I thought about Absol G X, but it was to many cards to tech into my deck (Premeir ball and needing 2 special dark). Honchkrow SV is a bit of a risk since I'll have to rely on having basics on the feild, but it might work out, because I run the new Pachurisu for my energy drops.

That'll be something I have to play test. Thanks for the idea!
 
I see that the format hasn't settled due to the release of the newer set's, and because of that we might end up going HGSS-on. Now for the next few set's I'm not worried in the least. cya
 
^ what do you mean it hasnt settled. its never been settled really. there isnt to much of a balance of decks right now. one dominates. sure a viable opponent has come up to take down luxchomp buuuuuut if it wins or loses the meta will still be uneven.

No problem, it's pretty much common knowledge by now anyway. You can easily get around putting a Lv. X to the bench with Warp Energy If needed, just sayin...
 
Absol G is pretty easy to tech into any Luxchomp if you are already using a 3-1 Garchomp line. It is quite affective. I played my Lostgar against it and it really put me in a bind on how to play the game out. Plus, Darkness Send can be deadly (I lost my Palmer's).
 
There's enough disruption available in the T/S/S slot that LostGar will still have to work for their wins. Looker's is a given, and Pokemon Catcher and other bench manipulation can potentially wreck Gengar while it's still just a Gastly.

It's a given that almost every deck is going to need to tech tools in to help combat LostGar, but those tools are so utility that the changes will be minimal.
