Glad to see you kept the Ninja Boy which has become more useful since you've also added Tauros GX which is a great tech for surprise KOs.


I also added Professor Kukui from the SM set for its supplemental card-draw support and damage output boost. Thoughts?
 
Ninja boy is very good when you start with something you dont want in the active and ninja boy into baby volcanion. Because say you start with hoopa you have ninja boy ultra ball in hand you ninja boy a baby volcanion then ultra ball for hoopa. One thing id seen be played a tiny bit but i have yet to test it out is nest ball because we run all basics. Also volcanion will massivly change when gaurdians rising comes out because of oricorio's attack and turtonator gx as a buffer. Very interesting right now and going foward, i personally love volcanion!
 
The thing with Nest ball is that it goes directly to bench, so the play from hand effect of Shaymin and Hoopa will not happen. Though it could be good for supplemental search for the Volcanion itself.
