Is Dragapult doing better these days?
Tera Hydreigon ex, Tera Tatsugiri ex, Milotic ex, Jasmine, and More from “Supercharged Breaker!”
- Thread starter Water Pokémon Master
- Start date
Anyone else think Milotic is gonna be crazy?
Mitotic ex looking beautiful as well! Even if it doesn't get an sir, we at least have a solid ex artwork.
I don't know about other people but I've had pretty consistent success with Dragapult since it released. Plus it getting used in Regidrago shows that the 200 damage plenty which was my main point
Playing with munkidori in the deck is a must, and maybe a copy of roaring moon ex. I think unfair stamp is probably better than prime catcher for this deck
I can imagine Hydreigon being a Tier 1 or high 2 threat. On first thought, I'd put it in a deck with Pidgeot and the Crystal ACE SPEC, do a solid 200 with one Energy, then get the Crispin and take the knockout while harming the Bench. Dark types also have a ton of support in Pecharunt and Janine so there's plenty of other options to explore.
Could milotic be the new control?
I was going to say the last TG for Milotic came out recently but when I checked that was 2 years ago! We are definitely due! The Shiny Miltoc art from Gen 4 was truly something else
OH COOOL ! Togetic here by Teeziro is another piece of their current puzzle/combo image - connects with the Watrell from TWM and the Passimian + vibrava from Paradise dragona 
Looked up more and it also connects with
SCR - Slowpoke
TWM - Torkal
TEF - dudunsparce
SFA - Golbat

So I just now got to reply to this, lemme just break down how insane this Hydreigon is going to be.
You could use Sparkling Crystal for easy 200 Damage plus the mill, but you can very easily make that 240 with Binding Mochi and Janine's Secret Technique and an attach. Against a Zard deck, 240 and losing 3 cards can be a big deal especially if it discards candies and rods. Now attach Neo Upper on the next turn and you KO that Zard with 170 and throw 130 onto two of its supports. Because Neo Upper takes the place of two energies, you do not have to use any other type of Energy over Darkness in theory, so if you need to be extremely aggressive against an Evolution deck, this is your overall best option.
The biggest weakness I see with this Hydreigon ex is one Teal Mask Ogerpon ex will very easily demolish it the same way it can with Zard, and you can't really do much about it as a result. You would want to back up Hydreigon ex with Okidogi ex in case of an emergency.
Still, this Hydreigon ex has signaled Darkness is making a massive comeback, and it started with Shrouded Fable. Very happy about it tbh.

On the other cards, Milotic ex is gonna be interesting for future Water decks but it seems fairly weak on its own, Slaking ex is too situational right now when there is a decent trove of single-prize deck archetypes, the Tatsugiri ex is some absolute meme material, the Togekiss might be really funny for Gardy decks, but to be honest there's not really a whole lot of good stuff outside of Stellar Pikachu ex and Hydreigon ex.
So I’m like, “Man, I haven’t been on Pokébeach for a hot second, let’s see some new cards!”
So I roll up and see this:
“So umm is this the meta now? Is it Tera/Milotic/Other RPS? With gusting around Milotic a bunch?”
“Oh, well that’s just dandy. Like we need ANOTHER Pokémon that increases prize cards drawn. At least this is a stage 2 and there’s no great way to set it up… *foreshadowing*”
“So this both forces you to watch your deck size AND make sure you have protection? Great…”
“Well, now we can use Togekiss…Sigh.”
This power creep seems wild to me.

Like I said, Milotic and Tatsugiri are kind of memes. The only truly broken card in this article right now is Hydreigon ex. Cinnabar on Tatsu is such an obtuse energy cost that they would have to make a Dragon type special energy for it to be somewhat usable in a general setting. It does have the one upside of having one retreat cost, so Rescue Board would be ideal for it.
Anybody remember Boomerang Energy? Why not use that with Slaking, that sounds like it could be good
I really love the coloring on the Hydreigon ex. It fits, because it was introduced in Black and White, so the fact that it has a Black and White coloring on it, it's the perfect card! I'd love to get it!

I mean no disrespect to anyone who likes this card. I'm just trying to be open about what I feel is its competitive viability.
