Only way 3 stage pokemon are good is when you pair them with a tank that can keep you from dying while you power them up.
>>
>>56863381
Packs only having 5 sucks. I guess they can't put too many because of God packs. It's a good thing promos are mostly reprints.
>>
>>56863525
>because of God packs
limit the amount of god cards to 5 per pack, problem solved
>>
>>56863501
3 stage evos are good because they're usually stronger than Pikachu ex while only costing 1 prize. Some of them aren't great, but most of them are well worth it.

Imagine being the guy who gets a god pack in WP and chooses the Weedle.

Which?

Top right always

Choose either Venusaur or Mewtwo, bro. I think that's the right call.
>>
>>56863596
Top right. Always top right.
>>
>>56863501
3 stage mons are considered tempo/midrange/control style decks that if they survive the early game, they basically win late.
Pikachu is high aggro. It has to win fast or it struggles with Raichu being a basically one shot nuke to attempt to clutch it out.

Bottom right, trust the plan

>>56863611
That's the thing though, you're not getting to your 3rd evo with 2nd stage at the bottom of your deck with no way to fish it out.
>>
>>56863596

Bottom right, you'll be all right
>>
>>56863611
>tempo/midrange/control
I totally understand what you're trying to say but you seriously just listed three completely different deck types.
>>
>>56863613
It's a sacrifice for the future. You will get a Full Art Mewtwo in a week and it will be top right.
>>
>>56863615
Sometimes you brick, oh well. Any card can be stuck at the bottom of your deck, that doesn't make them bad. Charizard and Mewtwo are the second and third best decks in the format.
>>
>>56863596
I swear these packs where bugged for wonder pick until the most recent update. I have played since the early NZ launch and have never seen 2 EX in the same pack UNLESS it was 2 of the exact same EX up until now.

Which one of you is this?

Egg/Venusaur deck that's basically done (one EX/one normal for both) so I'm opening Zard packs so I can build a Blaine Deck since that looks neat and doesn't rely on ex mons.
>>
>>56863710
Have you tried Weezing with Greninja? Pretty fun, lots of chip damage and the ability to snipe mons off the bench when they try to retreat.
>>
>>56863717
No, Greninja yet. Currently pulling for Alakazam so I can play that Weez deck

This game is boring as shit when you're not opening packs.

Zard x Moltres

Weird that you want to pay for something free. If wining or losing feels hollow you can punch yourself in the nuts very hard every time you lose. Raise the stakes.

Rotating between Mewtwo, Blaine and Weezing, Weezing’s probably my favorite of the bunch because it gives the most room to outplay and get back in games
>>
>>56863704
tried to play grass deck for my fullart erika, but exeggutor and pinsir being my heavy hitters is not the most reliable strategy, and with my luck not even a very effective one
today I'm trying out weezing/dragonite, and even though I only have one of each I still managed to win 5 games with it, so maybe I'll stick with that

Full steel deck.

I doubt I'll play much, if any, actual vs stuff, but if I do it'll always be a Raichu themed deck if it's available.
>>
>>56863704
Sweaty pika/zapdos deck. As mad as people get, very few games feel free with this deck. I guess more games feel winnable, though.
>>
My only electrics are two Helyo...whatever and one zebrest...whatever, can this carry me completely during the lapras event? it took down the first two even battles but the EX one looks hard.
>>
>>56863866
Melmetal's biggest feature is that it needs to be 3HKO'd from full hp by Articuno ex. It takes a long ass time to actually get out and its damage is decent but it gets 2/1HKO'd by most of the threats, and it has a long time to get ready. And you need to keep Meltan alive. If amass was an ability it would be way better.
>>
>>56863829
>Not in Pokedex order
Fix it
>>
>>56863892
Good thing the raichu deck is semi-decent at the moment.
>>
>>56863896
Reroll your account. If you have a good enough deck to not make you reroll, use that.
>>
>>56863898
Amass being an attack actually just kneecaps the strategy super hard
>>
>>56863825
There's no paying involved?
Say everyone gets 5 matches/day, and you get hourglass rewards or promo packs for your weekly/monthly rank. It incentives playing while speeding up resource gathering.
>>
I have a decent enough deck at the moment, I'm just going to open the daily packs for now.
But fuck me, this game made me want to replay the gameboy games. Are there any romhacks for them out there, or are they just too niche for that?
>>
>>56863901
True. I hope there's a Raichu that isn't an energy dump in the future though.
>>
>>56863796
You do know the pack points are only for this set, right? Unless you mean you want to spend your points with anything but the card you posted, there is no reason to hold on to them for the future.
>>
>>56863970
That's what I meant. I want to wait until the end of this collection to see which cards are missing from my collection to exchange.

Try Meowth or Jynx for Gardevoir. For Sabrina, another Red Card or a Hand Scope to maximize your Red Card.

it's one of, if not, the top deck

"best" counters as i'm aware are kobra + pidgeot deck and kobra + weezing deck
>>
>>56863990
They struggle with Koga decks, and decks with strong early games. So Koga, Pikachu, and Misty decks are the strongest against them. Arbok Pidgeot is usable against them but kind of sucks.

>xdef
>negate or halve the next opponent atk
this would help with the m2/pika/starmie 1-2 tap meta

also, primeape needed more health to take advantage of his atk, at 80 health you're probably getting 1 shot off

Not him, and I don’t disagree. I just think I have the worst luck vs Mewtwo with Pikachu. Feels like it’s always me going first and them opening with everything they need.
>>
>>56864043
That's uber powerful for control decks. Not sure if that's a good idea. As a Mewtwo player, an extra turn can literally win me the game.

>>56864044
Ah, understandable. Never played those so idk

Do you think the miniset will have its own booster or be lumped with the other cards?
>>
>>56864035
agreed
sabrina is incredibly strong and borderline essential rn
>>
>>56864064
new sets get their own boosters. they aren't going to keep adding onto genetic apex.
>>
>>56863990
Anything that sets up quickly is gonna give it fits (Koga, Starmie, even Blaine decks). It can steamroll if the Garde comes out early but do what you can to delay their setup, Red Cards and Sabrinas are huge vs Mewtwo decks.
>>
>>56864064
own booster probs
>>
>>56863871
why
>>
>>56864043
probably better to do -20 or -30 to the next attack
>>
>>56864068
Running 1-ofs makes no sense. Either you want to see it or you don't
>>
>>56863990
Honestly, I've been having an ok time against it with Venu. Depending on draw luck, Lilligant ramps up Grass energy very quickly for Venu and Mewtwo can't one tap it. Especially if you Erika, he has to discard energies and that window is all Venu needs to fold him. Sabrinas help survivability.
>>
>>56864035
if the bench is full and I sabrina the active does pidgeot's ability make them pick a different card? or can they return the same active from the start?
>>
>>56864102
>can they return the same active from the start?
Yes
>>
>>56864043
That’s fucking broken, anon. There are so many times I’d like to swing for huge damage but have to retreat and position due to a potential threat on the enemy side. You aren’t proposing a buff to stall. You’re getting yourself punched harder.
>>
Do the packs with a bent corner actually do anything different? Also how are you supposed to spot them outside of just autistically rotating every pack?
>>
>>56864106
wouldn't delaying an attack help especially with like lee/greninja/seadra/weezing where they can just snipe the back or keep hitting poison?

Fucked up the reply. Meant for >>56860733
>>
>>56864043
yeah i don't get the hype for primeape you can probably get 1 mon off the field and that's it and that decks I've seen running him aren't that great
he definitely needed more health for that mechanic
>>
>>56864114
It would help a lot of things, but as I read it, the effect would let me sit there and swing with a built-up mon with no fear of consequence. That’s better than x speed in a lot of scenarios.
>>
>>56864107
you can see that they're bent without rotating, it's not extremely noticable, but you can see it
and they're not actually different from other packs, not only would it be illegal, it was also proven that you get your cards before you even pick a pack
or at least THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT YPU TO BELIEVE, THEY'RE TRYING TO SECURE ALL THE GOODS FOR THEMSELVES
>>
>>56864107
they do, just like holding B increases your chances of capturing pokemon
so, no, probably not
bent packs and reversed packs are probably just a tool to increase engagement and replicate how people have silly pack opening "rituals"

Jynx in the Mewtwo deck is so nice bros, went first in the mirror and set up a kill after he Sabrina’d me (xspeed the Jynx->now my first M2 has 4 energy and can take out his M2 with energy on it, this was before I had Garde or even Kirlia but it won me the game). A bulky 1 RC fodder that isn’t your Ralts is exactly what the deck needed.

Odd, my account says is linked to my nintendo account...but the "link to your nintendo account" mission doesn't complete itself.

>>56864169
It’s not the most broken or strongest mon but I don’t think there’s any card I like facing less than Starmie EX because there’s such little counterplay, the 90 damage instead of say, 80, gets you so many extra KOs or 2HKOs also

In the "Offering rates" section of the boosters they mention they can adjust/ban cards to ensure a "fair battle enviroment" aka nerfs + buffs are on the table

But these decks will fall out of favor when stronger cards come out, cards like gard who is a physic energy gen will stay relevant though, she seems so strong and broken if she doesn't get nerfed

>Honestly, I've been having an ok time against it with Venu. Depending on draw luck, Lilligant ramps up Grass energy very quickly for Venu and Mewtwo can't one tap it. Especially if you Erika, he has to discard energies and that window is all Venu needs to fold him. Sabrinas help survivability.
Like this strategy. I already like grass too. I'll try it out thanks

I hope they add a tryhard mode to make you happy and that they leave the current mode for people who are self-motivated.

I feel bad because I made me and my opponent play a 23 turn game with my Butterfree/Venusaur healing deck.

Do you guys pokeball into oak or other way around?

If for some retarded reason I'm using pokedex I use that first and shuffle accordingly
Otherwise it doesn't matter
>>
>>56864316
>>56864316
its situational...

if you want to maximize the odds of hitting a specific basic then you oak into pokeball

if you already have the basics you need you pokeball into oak to lower the odds of hitting a baisc with the oak

isnt it obvious??? like its such a basic strategic concept
>>
>>56864316
Always search then draw, otherwise you risk drawing your search targets
>>
They should make truly limited cards. As in drop only like ~10k copies and noone can open more
>>
>>56864316
Always search before drawing. What if oak draws your search target and then your pokeball is useless
>>
Are their cards in the tcg that allow you to play an evolved Pokemon and skip the basic and first stage?

Yeah. I have drawn my whole deck in every game I've played with Butterfree/Venusaur so far.
>>
>>56864340
maybe

>>56864338
You should never help in the development of games.
>>
>>56864340
rare candy evovles your already on field basic to it's stage 2, skipping stage 1
>>
>>56864332
>it doesn’t matter which order you play your cards
Okay retard, let me lay out a common sequence of events.
>deck is 4 basic Pokémon
>draw 2 in opening hand
>draw for turn on turn 1
>14 cards left in deck
>each draw off oak is a 1/7 to brick your second Pokeball
>oak first anyway
>draw basic Pokémon
Now you have a dead card in your deck whereas if you would have used your Pokeball first you could have instead had a much smaller chance of drawing a basic off oak and making your second Pokeball useless.
>it doesn’t matter
Moron. Have fun losing to bad sequencing and then blaming it on RNG
>>
>>56864359
I'm not shit at the game so I can win with any hand, I don't get bricked
It doesn't matter because I'd win anyway
>>
>>56864354
Tcg cards are always investments. Wouldn’t you want your account to have value?
>>
how does the TCG handle pokemon who retroactively get a previous evo like Pichu or Munchlax? would future versions of Pikachu and Snorlax need to be evolved into?
>>
>>56864364
based GOD

Petty, but a win's a win.

Pokeball to get as much basics out of the way in hopes of drawing evos, trainers or items.

>>56864379
all me

>>56864389
They were hoping for a crit

>pikachu whale has full bench on his first turn
oh yay i am having so much fun this is very cool, 140 hp 90 damage basic mon
>>
>>56864335
This is the right answer and I'm surprised so many people said to just ball into Oak the whole time.

For example, let's say you have Moltres, Charmeleon and a Charizard in hand on the first turn, but no Charmander. It's better to Oak first because of how important it is to evolve on curve. Yeah, sure. You could end up drawing both Charmanders or some shit, but I'd take that if it means minimizing the chance of pokeballing a Moltres and then drawing two traineras
>>
What cards have you flaired?
>>
>>56864416
Potion twice for the quest.
>>
How do I stop checking every 5 minutes?
>>
>>56864416
Slowpoke. I'm hoping to get the full art Slowpoke soon.

>Start match
>Opponent is in "waiting for opponent to return" for like 40 seconds before we even set the board
>Takes forever on his turn like turn 1 has some advanced meta play or some shit
>Goes back to "waiting for opponent to return" and his turn gets skipped because he waited too long
>Get my board set up, end turn
>His turn, he STILL isn't back
>Eventually the game ends and defaults me a win
Get off the game if you're not going to play, fucker. I could've OTK Misty Lapras/Articuno'd against two other opponents in that time.
>>
Do you think a deck of 20 cards is enough or should be at least 30?
>>
>>56864429
It's enough because matches are quick. Well, assuming the cards you actually want to pull get drawn instead of them being digital fags that sit at the bottom of the deck, even after it gets shuffled multiple times.
>>
>>56864429
20 if we don't get more draws and searches. Otherwise, we need to bump it up.
>>
>>56864416
Lilligant, she's pretty common and my favorite Pokemon I have easy access to in the game rn
>>
>Dual Energy deck generation is completely random and not every other turn
Greninja/Exeggutor kino killed by the woke agenda, good work DeNa
>>
>>56864416
None. Either not enough copies or I don't care for the card
>>
Misty's new power has gone up to her head and turned her into a mesugaki, correction nerf when?
>>
>>56864429
20 is fine, maybe perfect
i only had 1 game where me and my opponent burned everything in our decks
>>
>>56864439
The petals flair for lilligant looks really good but I don't have that many dupes.
>>
>>56864446
Based, fuck dual energy fags.
>>
>>56864389
Just happened to me too. I guess I do it too sometimes. Dunno why though.
>>
>>56864335
>if you want to maximize the odds of hitting a specific basic then you oak into pokeball
If oak succeeds in getting your target then the pokeball becomes a dead card and you're at +0. Even if pokeball fails to get your desired target you will still be at +1 with a thinner deck. The worst case scenario is for oak to get you the target you want because you can't benefit from pokeball. Best case scenario is for oak to fail to get your target and then you get a chance to fish it with pokeball, this is always the scenario when you pokeball first. How you messed up such a simple concept is astonishing.
