I think by now we are all aware that two of the biggest decks Post-Rotation will be Rayquaza GX and (Ultra) Necrozma GX, as they lose the least to the rotation and can easily fit into 2019 Standard. However, to counter this "Rise of the Dragons" I expect Fairy types such as Gardevoir, Sylveon and (When it is released) Ninetales to see a rise in play, to try and exploit some weaknesses and deal heavy amounts of damage to these pesky dragons.
And if Fairy types were to see more play, I would wager that Metal Pokemon would also be played more to hit for weakness against the Fairy types, thus giving us (perhaps) another Top Tier Type Triangle (TTTT for short) of Dragon, Fairy and Metal type Pokemon.
With that in mind, here is a Dusk Mane Necrozma list I have drafted up for Standard Format 2019.
3 Dusk Mane Necrozma GX
1 Dusk Mane Necrozma
2 Type Null
2 Silvally GX
1 Celesteela GX
1 Solgaleo {*}
1 Oranguru
1 Dhelmise
2 Tapu Lele GX
4 Ultra Ball
4 Order Pad
4 Beast Ring
2 Field Blower
2 Choice Band
2 Counter Gain
4 Guzma
4 Sightseer
3 Cynthia
2 Copycat
2 Judge
1 Steven's Resolve
10 Metal Energy
2 Double Colorless Energy
All questions will be answered, and all suggestions welcomed!
