I really like the Hopip proxy thing in episode 17. This should be on the front page :]

Can you make a deck analisis about the decks that will be good after the rotation? I think that would help a lot of people who arn't going to nationals or worlds. *Cough me to Cough Cough *

I've tried very hard over the months to get this on the front page, but it just seems to be not working out with either WPM or whoever runs the "post your articles" section. Thanks for reminding me though, I'll have to try again!

I'll definitely talk about it, but I can't really do it until I know what the rotation is even going to be. My gut instinct is platinum on, but we'll just have to wait and see.

Great video as always, but I have a couple comments/questions

Why not 3 Kingdra prime? I don't think fire is common enough to need 2 LA. Also before prime came out and I used 4 LA, I found Crobats/Plus Power to kinda get in the way and I never used them, I definitely wouldn't with prime. I know you said they can be taken out but I kinda disagree with having them in the skeleton list. I've been playing without them and really enjoy to extra space it gives.

Also, why Multi if you might not be using Luxray/Machamp? And if I'm using Machamp I would rather use 1 Fighting Energy first just so I can search for it when I need it, similar to Luxchomp getting Toxicroak + Psychic.

I really like Kingdra but tbh I don't see much of a reason to use it right now because of Jumpluff. As you said the decks are really similar and I just think Jumpluff does most stuff better than Kingdra can :(

Again the video was really good and I'm not trying to say otherwise, sorry if it seems like it

the reason to use it is because kingdra swarming owns the pluff...

The reason I'd never run more than 2 is because of a x2 weakness to luxray GLX. You'll get run over by him because they won't even have to get lucario GL out.

The multi energy is for the sake of having any kind of strange option. Maybe use it with azelf la for lock up, or use crobat's toxic attack. I've even used it with a claydol + a pluspower once to KO a luxray GL X. It's a good card to have since 4-5 energy is enough searchable as is.

You can always get a fighting in your deck for machamp, but I'd still keep the 2 multis in.

Also, the reason kingdra can do better than jumpluff is because A) it beats jumpluff when the players are equally skilled. B) It does better than jumpluff on any deck that can OHKO jumpluff that isn't luxchomp. Kingdra has more HP and having that extra life can prevent your opponent from taking a prize, and it can put you ahead in the game. And C) Kingdra hits the bench as well, which can allow you to take multiple prizes late game faster than jumpluff could have.

I'm not saying kingdra is better, but it is not always worse than Jumpluff. They have simmilar builds but very different uses.

Oh ok, thanks both of you :)

Also I just realized reading your replies that I stated part of it badly. I know Kingdra beats Jumpluff, I should have added "against other decks" or something like that, sorry for the misunderstanding

Even then, they're going to go straight for it when they see LA>Prime, and without Reversals/Luxray (which you said not to run anyway and I agree with this, 2 LA isn't that great IMO.

And C) Kingdra hits the bench as well, which can allow you to take multiple prizes late game faster than jumpluff could have. This is a huge part I either don't understand or don't agree with. I will say that the Kingdra-Jumpluff matchup is close but it's no where near any side's majority. The best I would give it is even. It really all depends who can get setup faster. Another thing in B that I don't get is that you refer to a deck that can OHKO Jumpluff. The only deck I really can think about is something like Charizard AR, and even then, it's not that popular of a deck. And Kingdra is only playing 2 LA anyway...so I don't get how it has better matchups. Jumpluff has more all around better ones, even if not all of them is Auto-Win.

dmaster out.
 
RE: "Prof. it!":The Ultimate Pokemon TCG Show! Going for 1000 subscribers! (Episode 19)

My argument is that forcing them to have to get the lucario GL into play can at least buy you another turn of life. If they can't get it out/don't run it (many players are starting to cut it), they're only 2-shotting the LA one. Not to mention, it compiles damage for double knockouts faster, which is one of kingdra's biggest pluses.

Everybody tests differently, and everybody has different opinions about who beats who, etc. If a single kingdra LA + belt Ko's jumpluff, they can't respond with a ko, and you slowly build that bench damage on their uxie/claydol/chatot md/etc. Decks that can OHKO jumpluff include gyarados and cursegar to name 2 popular ones. But the big one is Jumpluff itself. Now anybody can donk anybody with 2 speed decks, but if you get beyond turn 1, I'd run kingdra over Jumpluff in that matchup any day.

For the record, I think jumpluff is a stronger deck, but it doesn't mean kingdra doesn't excel over it in some areas.
 
RE: "Prof. it!":The Ultimate Pokemon TCG Show! Going for 1000 subscribers! (Episode 19)

*read's what has been posted, claps hands together*

i've had idea's on this but really, kindra donk's for 90, jumpluff pound's with the sheerforce of the wilderness, for what like 160 with both bench's full ebelt and 2 cherrim.

anyways, nice kingdra report, I liked the 2 chatot md mentioned 2 space's apart from eachother while you listed the deck, classy stuff. hopefully you do a rouge deck breakdown next time, either that or the tasty usage of metagross (lol in my dream's), but maybe the tyranitar or steelix that seems to be interesting some peep's as of late. cya

I like the thing of "variety" in speed decks at the beginning of the Kingdra video. And what are the lyrics to your opening song? I've wanted to know that for a long time. I'm only ever able to make out a few words like "Regirock.... Hoppips.... Mesprit.... JWittz and Profit." :p
 
RE: "Prof. it!":The Ultimate Pokemon TCG Show! Going for 1000 subscribers! (Episode 19)

Yeah could you post the lyrics for the opening, I can make out some of it but it would be nice to be able to sing along when I see you fly on the screen in stereo square boxes.

@previous two posters:
I asked this awhile back, look through the whole thread.

Hey Jwittz so I was courious, how do you come up with all the AWASOME intros, and where on earth do you get all of those cards for your videos; like you had SOOO many Jumpluff in video 19.

I actually own all of those jumpluffs : P. I've been collecting them, and probably have somewhere between 9 and 11 now :D.

I'm thinking about changing the way that I do deck analysis, focusing more on how the deck as played over how the list looks. What do you guys think?
 
RE: "Prof. it!":The Ultimate Pokemon TCG Show! Going for 1000 subscribers! (Episode 19)

You have 9 to 11 Jumpluff can i trade for some please!!!!! I can't find them anywhere!! PM me.

Sorry, none are for trade right now unless there are Luxray X's involved--I'm trying to get 3 playsets so my family can take them to nats.
