Klinklang (Heavy Metal) Decklist Update 1/14/13

So I decided to put a little more effort into this deck, Klinklang has proven to a be a killer in my local meta, so here is the update.

(Pokemon *12*)

(3) Klink (BW5) [ I can get this klink with heavy ball ]
(3) Klinklang (BW1)
(2) Registeel EX
*Or I can cut 1 Registeel EX for a Sigilyph(BW6) or a Tornadus(BW2)*
(1) Regigigas-EX
(1) Mewtwo EX
(1) Bouffalant (BW6)
(1) Cresselia-EX (BW7) [ Fun tech against the mewtwo match up so i don't have to risk my own mewtwo. ]

(Trainers *36*)

(4) Pokemon Catcher
(3) Rare Candy
(3) Heavy Ball
(4) Max Potion
(3) Skyla
(3) Professor Juniper
(2) N
(2) Bianca
(4) Switch
(2) Eviolite
(1) Super Rod
(2) Ultra Ball
(2) Tool Scrapper
(1) Computer Search

(Energy *12*)
(4) Basic Metal Energy
(4) Blend Energy WLFM
(4) Prism Energy

So the point of the deck is to move energy's around to get the most use out of max potion and fuel your techs on a need basis. I only run 7 draw supporters because I ALWAYS have a hand with this deck and all of my cards are used at some point which is also why i run Cheren over Bianca and only 3 Professor Juniper ( Juniper makes me discard which i don't want to happen 4 times in a game.). So give me some criticism and let me know what you would do and why, thank you Pokebeach community :p
 
RE: Klinklang (Heavy Metal) Need Opinions

I wouldn't really call klingklang for giggles. Its killer in our current format. A good list generally consists of
1-2 Keldeo EX
1-2 Darkrai EX
Plus any and all techs that fit. IMO the best is Baby Ray. Its a great sigilyph counter which is becoming extremely prominent as well as good against Rayeels and Darkrai/Hydreigon

The point of the deck is to run 4 Blend WFLM and 4 Prism and then 4 metal energy. This allows you to move ALL of your energy with klingklang for healing. Keldeo solves the retreat cost problem and he is also going to be one of your best attackers since you have 8 outs to a water energy. Other pokemon in this deck that can be useful are pretty much any big basic. Prism only works on basic but its usually good to choose something that WFLM blend will work with that way you have 8 outs to that energy type. I will warn you though with this deck you need to avoid 1HKOs at all cost because you have aboslutely zero energy acceleration. Your only horrible matchup is hammertime, but there are ways around that. This deck has done really well at cities so far, and will continue to do so IMO. Hope I helped! Let me know if you have any other questions.

I could be not seeing it, or this may be intentional on your part, but wouldn't at least 2 copies of N be helpful? Also, if you plan on running 4 rare candy, as well as 4 skyla, you should think about taking out klang altogether. Eviolite is good, but not mandatory (good to use if you have the room), and as stated above, Keldeo EX plays very well with klingklang, alongside 1 Black Kyurem EX. You shouldn't try to overdo the BK EX + Keldeo + darkrai switcheroo, becaues you'll get caught in a snag. just 1 BK EX for when the moment is right to drop some mad damage and run away.
 
RE: Klinklang (Heavy Metal) Decklist Update 1/1/13

Totally understandable. In the case that you are playing without catchers, and plan on using spread damage as your main offense, if you have a copy of either of them, a Kyogre EX or a Groudon EX fill this deck well. Groudon has a 10 more hp, but has a water weakness, and depending on your local metagame, that can really suck. However if people in your area are still playing a lot of Eels decks, maybe Kyogre could be more helpful. If you decide to use either, possible cards to replace are your regigigas, or a mewtwo. I personally like Regigigas because he's tons of fun with eviolite and aspertia, but that takes up too much room in klingklang. So maybe the other two can be useful to you, while still staying (relatively) cheap. Unless Keldeo is huge in your area, I would suggest Groudon, due to his ability to spread, as well as sweep.

The deck went from a fun deck to a competitive deck so catchers have been added, on top of some new techs.
 
I'd cut one Heavy Ball for another Ultra Ball, since Heavy Ball isn't able to search for cards like Mewtwo EX, Cresselia EX..

So I made the change:

-1 Heavy Ball
+1 Ultra Ball

Thank You
