Truth EX (Vileplume/Reuniclus n' Stuff)

[ChaosBlack]

3-1-2 Vileplume
3-2-2 Reuniclus
1-1 Blissy
2 Terrakion
1 Kyurem EX
2 Regigigas EX
2 Mewtwo EX
1 Cleffa
1 Pichu
24 Pokemon

3 Rare Candy
2 PONT
3 N
2 Collector
2 Seeker
1 Cilan
4 Twins
2 Communication
3 Sages
2 Battle City (I'm poor and can't afford TB, so there)

24 T/Su/St

4 DCE
4 Prism
2 Fighting
2 Water
12 Energy



Main idea is to set up both Vileplume and Runiclus to deny my opponent from using items. Use Damage Swap to either power up Regi or simply heal it off with Blissy. Kyurem works as a wall of sorts. Discarding DCEs/Prisms/Special Metals etc.

So many bulky attackers with so little energy, it looks good TSS wise but I think you are trying to run too much pokemon wise. I understand it's a truth variant but still.

 

[ChaosBlack]

I see what you mean. I've considered so drops/additions but haven't made a full decision. Kinda looks like this.

- Blissy Line
- 1 Cobalion

+1 Rainbow
+2 Water

You need healing otherwise moving the damage is useless. You should narrow your attackers down to 2-3 max, anything that runs Kyurem EX will eat your deck alive since it only runs on special energy so if you can tone it down you can change up your energy to basics making cards like Cilan playable once you are setup.

 

[Magnezone_Elf]

You definitely have too many attackers. I personally like Landorus, so I would run 1 Landorus and 1 Shaymin EX, since revenging is not the best option in here.
Here's my energy list:
4 DCE
2 {F}
1{G}
3 Rainbow
Andd this is going to be edited BTW.

Gotcha. So I updated the first post.

-2 Cobalion
-3 Rainbow

+2 Fighting
+2 Water
+1 Cilan

I'm finding it hard to go down to 3 attackers. Regi is good for the high damage output with Reuniclus. Terrakion is preferred since Eel decks are so popular in my area, Mewtwo is to counter other Mewtwo's and Kyurem is good for discarding Sp. Energies since I can't just run lost remover.

 

[Brendan]

You can't freely retreat them though and with low energy/high retreat costs it's pretty hard to pull off whatever counters you need to while maintaining stability on your field.

 

[ChaosBlack]

Hmm, I see.

I could take out Terrakion in favor of Landorus since he only has one retreat and can build up damage for Regigigas. Only thing is that he can't OHKO Zekrom EX but I think I can manage. I suppose Kyurem can be considered to be taken out, but I'm not sure.

 

[Brendan]

I don't like regigigas to be honest. While he is good for a sweeper he also requires having damage on him which puts you in danger of a 2 prize KO against you. I'd rather keep kyurem to be honest. Stable damage, same hp, has the ability of lost remover in its first attack and only requires one dce and 2 prism/water/rainbow at minimum as opposed to 2 non searchable non retrievable DCE. Thats just my opinion though.

 

[Magnezone_Elf]

Just because you don't like Regigigas doesn't mean that he shouldn't use him. But Kyurem is still good. The only ways that I can think of for Landy OHKOing Zekrom is Pluspower or Kingdra, bug both are crazy.

 

[Brendan]

I didn't say you can't use him I just explained why in my opinion he's a bad play. The timing needed for Regigas to be effective is very crucial.

 

[Magnezone_Elf]

Too true.
and the list looks pretty good, now, except I would run 1 Terrakion.

 

[Jirachi]

Shaymin EX works really well in my testing. I wouldn't run pichu though and take out a rare candy to max out collector for consistency.

 

[Magnezone_Elf]

^All true.
