Standard Stick and Move (Post-ULP) (goli/silvally/leafeon GX)

[Mario W]

Hey guys. This deck is built around golisopod GX/Silvally GX. We know the key to Goli is to constantly be able to use first impression. Silvally is a natural complement to this system, via her ability which allows free retreat.

The spice in this deck comes from Leafeon GX. The goal is ideally to be able to start the game with eeveeloution in the active. By opting to go second, you could use Bridgette to fill up the bench ( if its not already) with wimpods and nulls, leaf energy evolve into leafeon, GX attack now gives you a bench FULL of Golisopods and Silvallys on your FIRST TURN. End its just business as usual....

Hi Mario W,

Silvally GX does not seem to fit into this deck since he only allows Basic Pokémon to retreat for free and without memories his first attack is not that impressive.

 

[Mario W]

OK, thanks I didn't realize the basic pokemon part of his ability...I'll find a a plug in. Leafeons ability is just too awesome not to use with Goli

If your looking for a hit and run golisopod deck just play with dawn wings necrozma not much reason to use leafeon either as golisod is just a stage 1 and its better to save your gx for the ohko on a lele for game.

Hi Mario W,

Golisopod and Silvally are two of my favorite decks since both are real versatile. There are several options for Golisopod variants. One would be to use Dawn Wing Necrozma GX and Float Stone to retreat Golisopod GX with Invasion and send hi out again on the same turn. Another one would be to combo Golisopod with Promo Lurantis to enable him to hit for 210 with First Impression using three Lurantis and Choice Band. In the latter version you definitely want Leafeon GX to set up the board. It is a more agressive version and less focused on knock out denial. Other options include Golisopod variants with Weavile or Golisopod variants with either Garbodor or Zoroark. The Zoroark variant may also benefit from a small Leafeon GX line. Personally I am a fan of the more offensive variant using Lurantis to boost the damage output of Golisopod GX. Also remeber that Golisopod non-GX is a decent attacker too and also handles Safe Guard Pokemon such as Alolan Ninetales non-GX and Hoopa SHL. If you want to include Leafeon GX in a Golisopod list also make sure to include Hala. Hope this provides some initial assistance.
