Flygon will be good I think.
But I will play Turtwig GL at worlds XD ~ It will be an amazing deck =D. with Cherrims+Shaymin on the bench, it will be invencible!
Turtwig powaa ^o^

I think Flygon will become like Rampardos. It was overhyped, and it ended up having too many bad matchups to dominate. Flygon will still be good, just not as good as everyone thinks.
As for what I'm playing, I'll just scrape together cards from my booster box.

I love how you're so confident, d master. Look, I see where you're getting at, but a deck that needs no energy to attack versus a deck that needs two energy attack. Sure, it gets the immunity, but after one 80 + 10 from poison, it is only 30 damage from getting KO'd. I'd like to mention that Mightyena decks, despite Mightyena having free retreat cost, run 2-3 Warp Points anyways, which could easily save them from this situation. Sure, Mightyena isn't that great, but I don't like how you're so confident that just because there is one card to counter it, it will fade out. Dialga G didn't fade out (or the G's) when Machamp showed up to kill it. Heck, even when Dialga G was out people played Mightyena.
ToxiTank, I doubt, will also fade out. First of all, if you start the first turn, you're fine, still. Unless your opponent has the ultimate perfect hand in which he can somehow get two energies onto Trapinch then Rare Candy into Flygon, you're not in bad shape. If you go second, you have the chance of donking. Sure, you can't always rely on donking, but you can't just eliminate a deck from the metagame just because there MIGHT be a counter that MIGHT see play in the metagame.

I'm not confident. This is just my opinion of what I think will/should happen. Apparently, there are fast versions of Flygon that rival speed of Donk decks and SP, and if those versions are played and successful, than it might as well be a no-energy deck. Flygon get the immunity and the possible OHKO with his second attack, while Mightyena 2HKO. Sounds like most decks, except Flygon can discard the Stadiums. That grants Flygon an extra turn to do damage and knock out multiple Mightyena while you knock out one Flygon. Not the best ratio, especially late game after your swarm. Once your Warp Points run out, you're screwed too. Believe me, it's the same with Dusknoir. You'd be surprised how fast the lock is. The WP do grant you time and KOs, but eventually time is called from how long the match is, and the other player manages to win. Too bad Dialga G did start to fade out at Regionals. GeChamp is one of the most played decks now, specifically to counter Dialga G and the like. Dialga G is going drastically down over the next few sets as well. Mightyena is risky played with Dialga G, but there's always the luck that you won't get paired, and that's usually what happens.
Toxitank is hard to donk, unless you make the deck specifically to donk. I wouldn't advise that because the deck is usually spread out to last the whole game, not the first few turns. More decks in RR take care of Toxitank as well, not just Flygon, specifically the Psychic SP coming out. I'm not elimanating the decks, all I'm saying is they will be eternal Rogues after the next few sets and not/hardly played virtually at all.
dmaster out.

Its an awesome card, but I agree. I think Rampardos will be a good analogy for it.
Wait and see. Don't see any utility to debate.
I remember before platinum, how people was thinking that Blastoise would be bdif. Now I see that's only a poor deck uncompetitive.

I reckon Machamp and Gengar will stay in the format. Dialga G could still be a contender too.
SP Decks will most likely run 3-4 Power Spray and 3-4 Poke Turn doesn't matter If it's a G deck or not. Machamp SF will still be played to donk Pokemon-SP cause they're all Basics and I think GeChamp will still see play Post-Rising Rivals.
Claydol and Uxie might become dead cards If SP Decks become as good as I think they might become especially Rayquaza as well...

That's EXACTLY what I think of Flygon.
RR can rule the land, but it depends what is which in each decks. Like Gallade4, FloatzelGL, and many other options with combos.
