Hi. I have made a list of the top 10 standard decks right now based off of what has won tournaments lately and of course, my personal opinion. Just know that there might not be many ultra prism decks on this list because until after St. Luis Regoinals, we won't know how well Ultra Prism decks will do in the current format.
So, here's the list:
1. Zoroark GX/Lycanroc GX. This was pretty much tied with Buzzwole GX/Lycanroc GX, but my personal influence came in and I love Zoroark so I'm kind of bi est but yeah. This deck won Memphis and had a lot of top places, got 3rd in Brazil, and got 5th in Germany not to log ago. So yeah, this is my #1 deck in the format right now.
2. Buzzwole GX/Lycanroc GX. This deck has done well ever since Buzzwole GX came out, and has gotten 2nd in Italy, 4th in Brazil, and 1st in Germany also not to long ago. So this deck is very consistent with Buzzwole Being a basic Pokemon and Lycanroc can target things down so, yeah this is 2nd on my list.
3. Zoroark GX/Golisopod GX. This deck is great getting 1st in Italy, 1st in London, and 8th in Germany. This deck is really good but has seen a lot of decline in play, from getting 2 top spots and then dropping to 8th is a pretty big decline in play/doing well. This deck is really good and deserves a top spot on this list.
4. Gardevoir GX. So, this deck is really good, getting 1st in Brazil, 6th in Germany, and 3rd in Italy. This deck also ended up wining worlds 2018 witch is a big deal, and has done well over time but might see a decline in play with the new coming Metal Apocolipse, but does deserve to be 4th on this list.
5. Greninja Break. This deck is really good, doing really well over time, getting 4th in London, 7th in Italy, and 3rd in Germany. This deck is really good, and again, deserves a spot on this list.
6. Buzzwole GX/Garbodor. This deck is great and has gotten 4th at Germany and nothing anywhere else, but in my opinion this deck has a lot of potential being able to spread and lock ability's, and deserves a spot on this list.
7. Zoroark GX/ Decidueye GX. This deck is one of my favorite decks and can play against almost anything your opponent puts up by being able to 2 shot with Zoroark and spread with Decidueye. This deck made 4th place at Brisbane Regionals in Australia and made 12th at London, and has a lot of potential in the future.
8. Volcanion EX. So, this deck is good, making 7th at a Germany Regionals, 3rd in Australia, and 7th in London. This deck is really good and is able to hit great numbers, but can be beaten if you are a good enough player.
9. Vikavolt/Tapu Bulu GX. This deck is interesting, being very inconsistent, but when you can set up, it's hard to stop you from taking the W. This deck has placed 2nd in Germany, 2nd in Brazil, and 5th in Brazil as well. This deck is good but to inconsistent to be higher on this list.
10. Dusk Mane Necrozma/Magnazone. This deck is one that comes from Ultra Prism so I am not sure how well it will do, but when this deck gets set up, it will one shot anything your opponent puts up. This deck has a ton of potential and might be really good in the future and deserves a spot on this list.
Honorable Mentions:
1. Golisopod/Garbodor. This is a great deck but has kind of stopped seeing play so, I didn't put this on the list.
2. Metagross GX. This deck is great but can get wrecked by Volcanion EX and hasn't made any top spots so I had to give it the boot.
Drampa/Garbodor. This is a great deck and sees a top spot here or there but hasn't been doing that good so ended up getting the boot as well.
Please tell me what you think of this list and and arguments are welcome, so thank you for your time.
Ps. When I say Germany, Italy, or Brazil I'm talking about Regionals that happend there not to long ago, and all my info comes from the article "the Buzz in Sydney" when you scroll down.
Thanks again for reading this.
