I was wondering if I should play Mew/Yveltal Toolbox for a tournament I'm pretty new and I can't invest more than $20 and I can't afford Shaymins. Here is my decklist:
- 2 Shaymin-EX ROS 106
- 1 Umbreon-EX FAC 119
- 3 Yveltal BKT 94
- 1 Yveltal XY 78
- 2 Yveltal-EX XY 144
- 2 Mew FAC 29
- 4 Professor Sycamore STS 114
- 3 Fighting Fury Belt BKP 99
- 4 Ultra Ball PLF 122
- 2 Parallel City BKT 145
- 1 Escape Rope PRC 127
- 1 Pokémon Ranger STS 113
- 2 Ninja Boy STS 103
- 1 Super Rod NVI 95
- 4 VS Seeker ROS 110
- 3 N NVI 101
- 2 Lysandre FLF 104
- 4 Max Elixir BKP 102
- 4 Trainers' Mail AOR 100
- 4 Double Colorless Energy FAC 114
- 10 Darkness Energy CL 94
Can someone improve the decklist in a way so that it costs less and substitutes the Shaymins? I need the following cards to complete the decklist:
1 Umbreon-EX
2 Yveltal BKT
2 Yveltal-EX
2 Mew FAC
3 Fighting Fury Belt
2 Parallel City
1 VS sekker
1 N
1 Max elixir
For me to buy/trade I need a total of value $58.50
Is it worth it to play this deck or another deck?
I'm fairly new to this format
Thanks
Without taking your deck list apart and assuming you can somehow get the Yveltal EX / Yveltal BKT without spending all 20 dollars needed to acquire them, this would be my suggested deck. Changes are highlighted.
2 Oranguru SUM
2 Yveltal BKT 94
1 Yveltal XY 78
3 Yveltal-EX XY 144
2 Mew FAC 29
4 Professor Sycamore STS 114
3 Fighting Fury Belt BKP 99
4 Ultra Ball PLF 122
3 Reverse Valley
2 Escape Rope PRC 127
1 Ninja Boy STS 103
1 Delinquent
1 Hex Maniac
1 Olympia
1 Super Rod NVI 95
3 VS Seeker ROS 110
2 N NVI 101
1 Lillie
2 Lysandre FLF 104
3 Max Elixir BKP 102
4 Trainers' Mail AOR 100
4 Double Colorless Energy FAC 114
10 Darkness Energy CL 94
Basically, I tried to give you some cheap alternatives. It is a VERY heavy supporter line, but at least it has flexibility and all the ones I am suggesting can be acquired cheaply.
Changes:
+2 Oranguru: roughly 2 dollars each
-1 Umbreon EX: Not needed and will get in the way.
-1 Yveltal BKT: Two is enough and you are better off investing the 3-4 dollars into another Yveltal EX
+1 Yveltal EX: Probably costs another 4-5 dollars to get one more. Total of 12-15 dollars for a set of 3.
+3 Reverse Valley: Roughly 1 dollar for a set of 4
-2 Parallel City: Roughly 3 dollars for a set of 4
+1 Escape Rope: Roughly 1 dollar for a second one
-1 Ninja Boy: Don't need two.
+1 Delinquent: Think you can get 4 for $1.50
+1 Hex Maniac: Think you can get 2 for $1.50
+1 Olympia: Think you can get 4 for $1.00
-1 VS Seeker: Saves you 7 dollars
-1 N: Saves you another 3 dollars
+1 Lillie: Think you can get 1 for a dollar
-1 Max Elixir: Saves you another 3-4 dollars
Total cost without the Yveltals = 11 dollars to go with what you have. Total cost with the Yveltals + Mew = roughly 30-35 dollars.
Not sure whether that fits your budgetary constraints or not. I would bet you could trade for every single one of those trainers I listed though meaning you could probably just spend the money to buy the Yveltals + Mews + Orangurus. Still outside your 20 dollars, but not by much.
Hope that helps.
