I can set up Vileplume and Gengar easily. It may be overhyped, as it's hard to live up to the huge expectations placed on the card.

Could you explain how you setup(generally speaking).

Oddish first turn, etc etc.

Thanks :)
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

Spiritomb active. Collector, Gastly, Oddish, Nidoran/Spiritomb. Then evolve with Tomb using Darkness Grace.

T3-T4. Unless you have a Gengar in your hand after evolving Gastly into Haunter (or Oddish into Gloom with a Vileplume in your hand), then you'll have to spend another turn evolving that Pokemon with Darkness Grace.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

I think Tomb is better and that the Plume is just overkill.
I like just SpeedGar this year, it is so consistent.
Also tonight i'll be testing my deck@ league vs LuxChomp and Jumpluff and maybe Kingdra.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

Seeing what your deck is, you'll have an even matchup against Luxchomp and an advantage against Jumpluff and Kingdra.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

i think i have an advantage over typical LuxChomps if we both get setup, they can't respond to my Ape 4 X unless they play Quagsire GL/Empoloen FB/Frost Rotom. Also i play the 3 main techs for mirror, Dragonite FB, Promocroak and Ambipom G.
Jumpluff i am a bit worried about for whatever reason but kingdra once i get an Ape 4 i pretty much win as long as i KO the Kingdra LAs.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

I think that jumpluff could be potentially a threat, especially since you only play one spray.. If you find that jumpluff is gaining popularity I would just find room for more spray.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

hey, i've been working on a legend deck. can you guys check it out? obvious, non-meta is my thing, but even so, I'm not too aware regarding the whole game in general.

RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

I made a suggestion, if you don't look there, and here first.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

okay so after some testing-
Jumpluff was SLIGHTLY in my favor, if i got out a quick ape 4 x w/ small bench i took a 2-3 prize lead and didn't look back, if i got setup slowly i lost. Again no call energy hurts me a lot, but i'm playing PONT over call(2 pont+1 extra fire energy). Against kingdra not to problamatic, mirror didn't get to test.
Also i'm thinking of trying cursegar w/ lines like this
3-2-2-1-1 Gengar LV.X(2 curse, 1 SF, might switch)
3 Spiritomb(PA)
2-1-2 Vileplume
2-1 Uxie LV.X
1 Azelf
1 Crobat G
1-1 Luxray GL LV.X

No testing at all, but it could work when i get all the cards(no plume line, also what oddish/gloom should i use?) have everything else.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

I like the oddish/gloom from LA, the grass ones. The gloom has 1 retreat, and they both have potentially stalling attacks.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

I'd go with a 2-2-2 Vileplume. I just like its consistency.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

Anyone Miss me? Here's my list for Bellossom/Plume. MUCH better than Gengar IMO

4-4-3/2 Bellossom/Vileplume UD
2-2 Sunflora
4 Spiritomb
1 Uxie
1 Azelf
1 Unown Q

4 Collector
4 Bebes
4 Elm
4 Oak
4 BTS
2 Palmer
2 Cynthia's feelings

4 Call
2 Warp
6 Grass

It works.

I dont really like Sunflora that much, but if it works, then it works.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

Also that deck just got changed to this(not a full list, but only 3 trainers, rare candy, also odd is 3 copycat, which i feel will be just great next year)
2-1-2-1 Machamp LV.X(SF)
3-2-2-1-1 Gengar LV.X(SF-SF-PA-SF-PA)
2-1-2 Vileplume(LA-LA-UD)
1 Azelf(LA)
2-1 Uxie LV.X(LA)
1 Unown Q
3 Spiritomb(PA)
I honestly have NO clue if this will work will be testing vs. LuxChomp...
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

I'd go 3-1 Uxie. With 3 stage 2 lines, you need all the draw you can get,
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

What is better to run in Gengar/ Vilplume deck? Vilplume 1-1-1 or 2-1-2?
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

Neither. 2-2-2 is for BTS and Spiritomb consistency. You have less odds of having Gloom prized, so your odds of getting Plume is higher.
 
RE: The Storms ~ This format is ours! Getting ready for Battle Roads!

I've been testing Vilegar a lot, and I think it can be a really good competitive deck. The Zen Blade thing is way too hard for the LuxChomp player to set up, and I run 3 Warp Energy and Interviewer's for Blaziken FB. I think this deck has serious potential to do very well.
