I'm almost done with my Mother Gengar deck, but it has a problem with Dialga G and Flygon. I need to find a tech to help me in this match-up. Try to think outside the box.

Its a hard matchup. Dialga is almost auto-win VS Mother, something i did was add a 1-0-1 Machamp. It helped alittle. For flygon, if there was a tech someone would have found it, but intill then flygon will just have to kill Gengar.
 
In a Gengar deck, Ditto isn't really the best option. You shouldn't be having too much trouble against Flygon anyway, because their hands are generally filled with trainers they aren't using. And you have resistance :p. With Nidoqueen, that just makes the matchup a lot better.

For Dialga... Dialga is harder. A 1-0-1 Machamp might slow it down. The Nidoqueen slows Gengar down enough (not dissing the 'Queen here). I'd rather have speed over a possibility of KOing Dialga. Plus, what if they G the Dialga? And their bench? Dialga just isn't an easy matchup for any Gengar variant besides GeChamp, and even then it can struggle.
 
Ditto is nice against Flygon, I killed 2 Flygon Lv.X's yesterday with the same Ditto =P
 
Strange coz' I have the same problem but the other way round. I find Fantom and Ditto are good against Flygon. Fantom also kills Palkia G which is helpful.
 
^^I never thought that about Palkia G. But, I have seen some games teched with a Fantom playing a Flygon. It so won, it was a gardellade deck though, but still.
 
Ditto only helps to an extent, most gengar decks run a low amount of energy. Meaning wasting three to kill a Flygon isent really what i call "Super".
 
I was notified by a new friend that Lopunny LA is perfect counter to Flygon.
If you play Lake Boundary or Lucario GL, you can do 120 for 2. 90 for two otherwise.
Also, it makes for a great starter, and has an extremely useful Poke-Body. Especially when paired with Nidoqueen.​
 
^a 1-1 tech isn't to hard to fit in, especially when it can help you set up as well, if you playing call energy, buneary an grab it for you.
 
Woah-ho, nice find to that friend of yours, Mart. Now the problem is, if Lake Boundary is out all I have to do is send up another Flygon, use Wall of Sand. GG.
 
^ So strange. If Flygon SW can kill Lopunny, then why can't it kill Ditto? Oh wait, IT CAN. >.>

Seriously, there's no need for a counter unless you're playing a bad deck.
 
I'll try the warp points and I'll also try the lopunny. I might take out draw power for lopunny because its an awesome starter.
