The Better 'ACE SPEC'?

I'm not too sure which I'd rather run in my deck, the 'Scramble Switch' or the 'Gold Potion'.

Opinions?

Scramble Switch - http://pokebeach.com/scans/plasma-storm/129-scramble-switch.jpg
 
Oh... It's basically just a (almost complete, minus the Blastoise >_>) Keldeo EX/Mewtwo EX Water deck.
 
Scramble Switch is the better mof the two choices you gave. However, either Computer Search or Dowsing Machine would be much better to have in almost any deck.
 
Not necessarily. Scramble Switch is very well worth trying! (Especially with no Blastoise...)

That was pretty much why I was look at it, but wasn't too sure.

Without Blastoise the deck isn't even properly functional

All my friends around me keep pulling this card, but won't trade/sell it to me :(
 
Looking at a decklist and I'm only seeing one listed. :3 Not too sure if I wanna spend that just for one card... Though if I were to try and get it online, it'd probably cost around the same after adding the shipping cost. :/
 
Scramble Switch is actually a viable option in Blastoise. With it, you can bench Black Kyurem, attach a Lightning, and Scramble Switch into it for the game winning KO. I personally would still prefer Computer Search, but I think Scramble Switch is still good.

This deck has 1) no Blastoise 2) no Black Kyurem.

I believe he intends to get the Blastoise.

My old deck used to run the Blastoise with the 'Dig Well' ability
 
Computer Search is probably best, but since its not an option, go with scramble switch. Without blastoise there is no way you can easily Rain down energy.

And Subtract around 4-8 energy when you do receive the blastoise ( If you intend getting one.)
 
Gold Potion is very lackluster compared to. Computer search adds consistency and speed to decks, and is very strong. It also searches special energy. Dowsing is great late-game for recovering resources, and is good in decks with lots of key items like Garbodor tools, Lasers, Catcher (every deck plays catcher, but some rely on it more), switch, and others. It also can be good in the odd stadium war. Scramble switch is very good as well, letting you load attackers like Mewtwo, Landy, Keldeo, Black Kyurem, Lugia, Snorlax, and more late-game. It's a really amazing card because of al the possibilities of what it can do. Any of these 3 is a good choice. Gold Potion isn't bad, but just not as good as these. You can run Potion or Max Potion for healing that's nearly as good (Max Potion+Scramble Switch is better than Gold Potion)
 
Max Potion is better than Gold Potion in most cases, anyways, as you can use it to cure a Poké that got snipped, for example
