Goodooo packuuu
>>57119245this seems really energy inefficient
>>57119455Last 3 wonderpicks have been sabotaged by salazzle. F that shitmon
tfw
>>57119460You can share this one
>>57119471If I find an additional Drudd I'll buy the missing Melmetal to try that deck
>>57119474Here's your share sis ..I..
>>57119477its a hilarious deck, so far the only deck i feel like it loses pretty hard to is Gyarados but he just feels pretty strong in general at the moment
>>57119477One of these days i'll have the balls to go triple energy with it for the 1 in 4096 chance things can line up since technically meltan only needs one metal energy
You just know
>>57119484I really doubt that given that both Mewtwo and Celebi can OHKO it, but seems fun indeed
>>57119492You'd be surprised at how many opportunities to build both metals happens. Often times matches against them come down to when they stop being a pussy and take out one of your Drudds so you can revenge with Gio or tank with Blue
>>57119489oh stop itSTOP ITSTOP POSTING THE SAME THINGSHE is NOT a WHITE womanONLY WHITE women FUCK DOGS (YJK YJK YJK)She is a pure traditional Japanese woman, and they DONT fuck dogsokay? so STOP IT
Blaine deck almost got my pika deck I only won since I went second and Zapdos flips saved me
>>57119460friend id prease?
>Gyarados is a tier 1 deckkek
>>57119500You have to find retards who don't have Sabrina and don't attack Drudd which is not that uncommon for Mewtwo and Celebi users, but on paper it's an impossible matchup. You have to find meltan, evolve it, either have it in front and avoid death for 2 turns or in the back and stall 4 turns. Celebi takes 3 turns to oneshot melmetal. Mewtwo can kill with gio+psy sphere turn 2 or get psydrive by turn 3-4 depending on curve. The odds aren't really favourable
>>57119516unironically it does get hard countered by hitmonlee and zebstrika. Be the meta counter you want to see anon
>>57119516le fishe
>win>make opponent ragequitplay bird egg
this gyarados drud deck is a fucking problem dude. Greninja ability just allows gyarados to one shot everything, and you have a high chance to checkmate immediatly because of misty. Such a low risk high reward deck unless you run into the bench sniping pokemon.
I've just made a couple of mewtwinks concede with this meme deck>>57119471Kek
>>57119532Zard clears it too
>>57119532Well its not really the deck, its just that grenigger is retarded. The ability needs a nerf in some way, wether that be down to 10 damage, or being unable to hit the active pokemon
the weak should fear the strong
>>57119537>double passive damagedelightfully devilish
>>57119541that's a well trained eevee
Thoughts on the meta and event?I think it's pretty diverse and healthy atm since I still see some Genetic Apex decks rn, but again only 1 mini-expansion was released
>>57119546if it weren't for misty, this game would be real cool. Misty was something you could shrug off since water wasn't meta, but now it is. Gyarados and jackpot misty is everywhere now and I can't say the game is fun to play atm.
>>57119541fucking based
>>57119541based base Lapras enjoyer
>>57119552Little grass hands typed this
>>57119567I got my 50 wins with this bootleg flareon drudd chudninja deck so no.
a story in two parts
>melmetal attacking on turn 6I change my mind, meltan is actually pretty good
>>57119460Is that one of the few that were posted lately? If so I'm so fucking unlucky
I think they will have to nerf misty at some point. Gamblers getting heads used to not mean an auto loss since Starmie was only relatively strong. Now they have have Gyarados up so easily with some luck? not even hard to evolve, stage 1s are relatively consistent. Keep in mind that both fucking exeggutor and gyarados are stage fucking 1s.
>>57119599Why nerf when you can just make the next card set stronger and get people to pay to be competitive?
>>57119546I started playing less then a week ago so I barely have enough cards to make one type of deck and can't say anything about meta, but I'm about halfway through my wins for this event,Celebi/Serp and Mew/Mew2/Garde decks are making me want to kill myself more then any water decks have so far
so whats the reason for no resistance?
Oof he didn't realize my first pika was a shield
>>57119612Makes matchup too influential
>>57119616what's he supposed to do? not attack?
>>57119619Not protect the frogs
>>57119452Oops posted as thread was dying, please help
>>57119599She'll just rotate out eventually
>>57119627Electric is in a weird spot right now. Any energy you invest on the bug would most likely be needed on pikashit.
Trying to make a good deck that synergizes with itself seems a bit difficult outside of obvious gimmicks like Venoshock
>>57119627arbok doesn't see play anymore anywayit's all about just 1 shotting your opponents EX and if you can't you lose, losing your energy on your bug is too bad
>>57119612The stupid way they did energy makes it a terrible idea to run 2 color decks, so all these extra damage and resistence things would just fuck you up, they are not a real strategic element.
decks that gigachads use vs decks that sissies use for this event?
Celebi is inconsistent even with egg ex or that grass anchor
>>57119599>"Misty needs a nerf!">Meanwhile Serperior is going fucking ballistic pushing a mediocre coin flip mon into a nightmare machineMisty is a legit bad card and when water gets real energy support like Gardevoir or Serperior then you can cry about it.
>>57119642What clued you in?
bruv saw 8 Gyarados in top 16 and thinks Misty isnt a problem. oh my days bruv, bloody hell
>>57119659Wtf is Vaporeon? It's just a tool in any water deck
>>57119659Ursii!!!!https://www.instagram.com/ursiiday/reel/DCOu2qqKXa0/
>>57119659I thought Pika had been cucked
>>57119669Pikachu farmed Gyarados and /tcgp/ is always wrong
otokonoko doko
>>57119546i feel like the hard counter RPS is much worse than before
>>57119669Devs tried but nobody is playing the cards that were supposed to cuck him
>>57119627Half of what makes Arbok good was his type advantage into m2. The other half was darks lack of good options, and Arbok was dropped in favor of Scolipede recently. And with only 80 HP Galvantula isn't tanky enough to actually take advantage of trapping anything important. Arbok could trap Pika and take a non-Gio boosted Circuit.
>>57119677Guy was bottom leftGot the volc though so it’s an alright consolation gift
>>57119659>golemumm based department?
>>57119659but /tcgp/ told me gyarados was the worst ex of the set...
>>57119695Is this what people are running? Seems a bit weak.
>>57119677Formerly Chuck
>>57119699They consider you a threat
>>57119659>1500+ players>Celebi is the second most popular deck after Mewtwo>Not a single one made it to Top 32This is just sad
/tcgp/ is ALWAYS wrong LMAOOOO
>>57119700Fuck no you hide behind Druddichad while you ramp up your Golem.
>>57119705Celebi is just a shittier Mewtwo. You need Serpior for it to be a legitimate threat. The problem is Psychic has the most draw cards out of every type Grass only has Caterpie and even that requires a 1 energy investment.
Current Top 32 standings.https://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/675dfa1c95f729096d72928a/standings>>57119700Do you people just grab random images.
i literally can not play golem because i have 0 graveler after opening 100 packs...
Both top right it feels great to be a top right chad
>achievement for registering 5000 cards in the card dexThey're future proofing the fuck out of that one huh
>>57119719>Celebi all the way at 49hope this makes people stop playing it but gyarados is a cancer i don't want to see either
>flip heads>usually lose but sometimes win>flip tails>usually win but sometimes lose
Rat faggots I take back everything I said we need you back to kill these Gyarashitters.
>>57119719>Do you people just grab random images.I just yandexed it
>>57119724huh?
post pikachu decks to counter the fish menace
Gyarados is just a tryhard tournament deck. Celebi is still a menace to the average person that just wants to queue for a random battle and play their fun deck and not get fucked in the ass by coins
>>57119740They appear in their original position not how you've wonder picked them
>>57119741anything with electabuzz and raichu in it
>>57119746Celebi isn't meta, so it's a fun deck
>>57119741pika ex, old raichu, magneton, lt surge
>>57119741Not sure what happened here
>>57119677same place
Had a really good duel against that Starmie/Lumineon deck, came down to his Potion in hand vs my Gren to undo it. Btw if you guys are running Starmie anything, Gio is really worth running since it throws a huge wrench in Drudd’s setup.
>>57119726But it's a playable grass....
>opp bricks solo drudd, I have eevee in lead spot but i get a nut draw on my first turn>just need eevee to hit one 20 vs the drudd and I have gren ready next turn to either win or pressure him like crazy >eevee just casually hits 5 heads and rolls the 100 itself video gaming
>>57119767Then why are players not thanking me for playing it?
>>57119804its casino misty level of cancer
>>57119659Blainebros, our response?
>>57119808i already swapped to pika EX + raichu
>>57119808Blaine deck builders are still cooking be patient, there are new cards now
>Only deck I can figure out how to play is blaineCard games are too complicated
>>57119817Just put your favorites into a deck and have fun even though you have a 35% win rate like me
>>57119817pokemon TCG is the toddler game of TCGs but I do think that the new booster has made battles take dramatically longer as some people actually have to think things through, trying to play around Drud, etc
You realize the battling isn't supposed to be taken seriously, right? It's mainly a collecting gacha
the person going second should not be able to play supporters on their first turn, would balance the a little more. as it stands going second is just so much better than going first in pretty much every way.
>>57119824>several battle based events>implying people are whaling on a game where the only reason to whale is to show screenshots of PNGs everyone else can see>when the best way to show off your whale antics is by battlinglol
>>57119824It's a trading card game with no trading
>>57119829Now I will disingenuously argue that some stage 2 decks would like to go first.
>>57119817this game is so easy, what are you finding complicated about other decks besides blaine?
>>57119832even in those cases I'd want to go second just to keep my opponent from getting the advantage that comes with going second.
Are they going to have dupe exploits when trading first comes out to reward people in the know?
I haven't unboxed Pokémon cards in like 27 years. The Chatot card from Temporal Forces is calling to me, but I'm a gambler, so I wanna buy TF Booster Boxes. Where could I buy them instamatically from, retail wise? Are they still available outside of online shops?
>>57119840>tripfag>is retardedno way...
>>57119843It's a valid question. I'd hate to go into a Target and find out "Whoops, they don't sell that anymore" or something
damn, this gyrados/druddigon/greninja deck is really good, just went 10-3 with it.the ability to chip damage anything into gyrados range is so strong, many times my opponents could not attack cause it would put them in range of a revenge kill from gyrados or Gary+greninja.
>>57119840Not sure but I've seen Pokemon cards at the dollar store (they cost more than a dollar). Good luck!
>>57119845sir, this is a Wendy's.
>>57119845you're in the wrong thread boomer, this is for the online tcg clientand take your trip off
>>57119846What's the deck?
>>57119846b-b-but /tcgp/ told me g-gyarados ex was bad!
What do you call the act of playing ptcgp? I was thinking something like "Jammin Decks" because it's fast paced and sounded kinda cool.
>>57119849Oh lol. I saw Card in the title and figured. Sorry, I don't dabble in Pokémon much anymore to know the difference
>>57119659What does Pika Ex even mean? There are at least 7 versions of that out there
>>571198502 magikarp2 gary2 greninja2 frogadier2 froakie2 druddigon2 pokeball2 professor research2 leaf2 mistypretty standard list I think.
>>57119856You can just make your own thread somebody who works at Target will help
>scroll through my entire Wonder Pick list>not a single IR, ex, or full artAbsolutely insane.
What's the fastest deck now that Blaine is dead? I want to spend as little time as possible in game with you retards.
>>57119862>gyarados deck>no gyaradosintredasting
>even golemChads have to turn to druddigon to compete.
>>5711986918t articuno misty with a tiktok on in the background
>>57119872do you think Gary refers to Ash's rival?
>>57119862Do they run double energy just for Drudd?
>only 1 Drudd and Gyara EXfuck
>>57119876yeah. there's a blue card now
why does aero have to miss every breakpoint lel, 140 hp to instadie to gary, 80 dmg instead of 90 so you can’t gio past drudd or pikachu and even shit like ninetales without the gio. I want to make him work but damn
>>57119878no because then your gyarados would never attack
>>57119878Drudd is THE wall, you don't use him to attack, EVER
>>57119878Not in Gyara variants, no
Now that enough time has passed so people aren't going to curse me I can post the results of my first two mythical island packs
>>57119862I really underestimated this deck. As a Mewtwo player, this matchup is fucking TOUGH. Pikachu seems like an issue, but that's not a terrible place to be at. Part of me thinks you can just play Sharticuno and some gios instead of the frogs to streamline your draws and find Gyrados more often.This deck should not be underestimated though. Maybe it's just bc I almost always play M2, but this matchup is BAD for m2
>>57119883is it just me or is Aero's ability useless too, there's very few cases where you're worried about an active pokemon evolving as opposed to a snivy or ralts sitting in the back. fighting has been so gimped.
>>57119469>>57119469>>57119469Hope you aren't really this stupid that you don't understand that Flareon has only become useful now because it one shots celebi, no other reason. So no, it wasn't good when the game released because it didn't do anything useful.
>>571197412 Dedenne2 new Pikachu2 old Raichu 2 Pika ex2 zappy boy2 research 2 PokeBall 2 x speed2 gio1 Sabrina 1 Red card1 lt surgeThis is where I'm at with Pika right now. I think Dedenne is excellent. High variance, but excellent.You could trim red card for Sabrina if you want, but if youre expecting m2 and Celebi everywhere, if stick to the red card.Not playing Raichu is bad I think.New Pikachu is microscopically better than the old I think, but maybe that's wrong.
>>57119916I think the only deck that suffers from Aero is Blaine.
>>57119923As a blaine enthusiast, I wouldn't be caught dead with Flareon. Just too much energy and too slow imo. I play 1 farfetchd and it's great tho.
How many hours for a full wonderpick rotation?I kept checking it constantly in fear of missing out a god pack
>>57119964It literally lists how much longer they're going to be available at the top of each of them anon-kun
>>57119455>Gyarados EX cleaning up in the eventThis is too funny, like Dragonite on steroids lmao
misty and Erika should only work on shitmons.
>have absolute garbage starting hands in the last 5 games>only won one of them because the opponent AFK'd for one turni hate this game dawg
>>57119819The only way to stay sane long-termIt's not like win rate matters anyway with no ladder
>>57119925Waiting the next event to build this
>mirror>opponent has japanese name>proceeds to draw the worst hand in history while got everything they want turn 1I'm sensing a pattern
The biggest celebi haters should really be celebi players
>>57120034i have two immersive celebis and still dont have any of the serperior line
>>57120033I had a game a bit like this. We both bricked to start with. Then I got there first and the other player rage quit
>>57119455I love it when Gyarados shitters realise that sitting behind Druddigon attaching energy isn't as clever of a strategy as they previously thought and panic sets in (any 1 of the 2 failed misty rolls coming good would have BTFO me)
Mental damage success.
>>57120033>opponent had japanese name>loseI'm sensing a pattern
>>5712005395% of the ragequits I've faced were from Japanese names. We've influenced them too much.
>>57120053most of my wins are from japsthey love to consneed
do you let your free packs stack up so you can open 2 at back to back or do you just open them immediately when they are available?
Drudd + Rk9 + Gren is unironically not bad, but I find that I need both Gio and Sabrina a lot and cannot fit them due to having X Speed as well. 1 Leaf would be better over 2 X speed maybeAnyone got the optimal build?
I really like the consistency of the card artwork in this set, with the handful of recurrent locations shared amongst the backgrounds of the cards to show they're all living on the same island. I'm hoping they keep reusing this theming for future Mythicals in the game, would be a nice little backstory
>>57120050>POV your opponent
>>57120061I'd rather stack, unless I'm desperate for a card.
Please give me a deck that can't brick no matter how abysmal my starting hand is
>>57120067uh, I guess that Articuno + trainers deck.
GREAT BALL WHEN YOU FUCKSSSSSSSSSS
Scolipede auto-loses against anything that's not Mewtwo, Pikachu or Blaine (unless the opponent bricks, but you have a much higher chance to not have the right cards when you need them).
>>57120067pikachu, blaine, shitnite
>>57120074it can beat celebi too
i just hit level 40
>>57120077how much have you spent so far?
>>57120078Somewhere in region of $500?
>>57120076IF Celebi bricks or fails its rolls, which is impossible if you are me.
>>57120068>ArticunoIs that one even viable>>57120075>pikachucan brick if you draw into basics but no pika>blainefucked if you get the basics but wrong stage 1>dragonitebricked by energy, come on now
>>57120084what? if you hit your evo lines they can never win in time you just sac something cause they need 3 KO points
>>57120043Meanwhile Cheddarzard shitters clinging to a deck figured out day 1 hour 1, at least Gyarados is new
>>57120072>Great ball 2x>Poke ball 2x>Oak 2x>Sabrina 2x>Potions 2x>XSpeed 2xAnd then whatever other generic goodstuff comes out. Every deck would be exactly this and nothing else.
Banlist when
is it easy to get exes?I only have 4 left (zapdos, moltress, venu and pidgeot). 0 cash and less than a month playing.
>>57120096never
>>57120085retard, Pika is extremely consistent and doesn't need turn 1 Pika Ex to win. Blaine is also very easy to get running.>muh energy brick in 20 gorillon turnsNo deck "cannot brick", but the ones I listed are the least likely to.Go back
>>57120096How does the Pokemon TCG handle banlists/errata anyway? I'm only familiar with Yugioh's. Does Pokemon even ban stuff or do they just power creep/antimeta it the next set?
>>571200672 Kang2 Tauros2 Hopping Eevee2 Ditto2 Lickitung2 Articuno Ex2 Misty2 Oak2 Pokeball2 x speed
>>57120062I posted this a couple threads back but I actually switched over to Flareon because it’s easier on the energy reqs and it’s only 1 prize. The extra bulk/damage on Arcanine is nice but Flareon plays a little smoother and can also hit out of the gate as Eevee
PikaEX takes no skill & you NEED to kill yourself NOW for using it
>>57120110post highest skill deck
>>57120106Actually replace cuno with moltres and misty with leaf an gio.
Starmie and greninja is strong even without misty...
>>57120067MewtwoWith the addition of slab, you truly hit a new level of consistency that no other deck in the format has.I had a game where I didn't find m2 until my 4th turn, and I easily rolled my opponent's strong Pika draw because I had gard + leaf turn 4.I'd say over half of the games you have less than 10 cards in your deck by turn 2. Absolute madness.Gyrados is an issue though.
What if the active zone and bench were like JRPG formations and all Pokemon could attack. The benched Pokemon can attack the active zone while the active Pokemon can go after either active or benched
>>57120112Probably koffing/Arbok idkEvery deck is hard to play perfectly 100% of the time. Every game has several decisions that need to be made.
>>57120124retarded but i wonder if a duo format would be funny
>>57120112dragonite>>57120127lmao
>>57120124what if you werent gay
>>57120129>It's just RNG, bro. >You're just lucky you have a lifetime win percentage over 75%>Hanamon won two big tournaments because he's the luckiest >The coin flip determines everything >I consneed if I don't get to go 2ndI find it hilarious that a children's card game filters "people" so hard.
Why is everyone pretending gyarados is stro g noe?
>>57120144Because Gyarados is stro g noe..
>>57120119>gene hacks your shit up
>>57120144Because we have been playing against it and realized it's quite good. 180HP is massive, especially against the Mewtwo menace
>>57120155It's easier to play around than you may think. Leaf is absolutely insane in M2. Usually it's trivial to have a M2 on the bench ready to one shot mew. Mew can be very good. I won't deny that, but it's not some sort of auto win
It's crazy new golem has the same amount of hp as old golem with damage reduction
>>57120144Because just about everyone who isn't a Celebishitter has to forfeit building up a high cost mon even on the bench whereas the worst Gyara has to deal with is ONE of its energy potentially removed
Do I go for it?
>>57120188Sure
>>57120188I wont judge you if Scolipede's your thing, we've all been there
>>57120181I hope we start seeing Lickitung decks pop up if they ever drop double colorless energy
>>57120188morelull will be on the bottom left so don't pick that one.
>>57120188I don't see why not
>>57120188yes
>>57120193>>57120191>>57120190Fml
>>57120144Because it's a Charizard that's only stage 1, builds energy behind a 1 point wall that counter hits for 20 instead of risking another Ex, can cheat energy out with Misty and doesn't discard 2 energy each time it attacks.
>>57120205Sorry I'm Australian so I was looking at it upside down I meant morelull at top left.
>>57120205I get you bro I just flopped 7 Aero ex Wonder Picks in a row. Soon to be 8 once my 3rd stamina recharges later
>>57120211I've missed Pidgeot ex enough times that I've given up on it, and instead switched to missing Scolipede 5 times in a row
So can we all agree that Gyarados needs an immediate nerf ?It's 100% the most broken deck in the game not even Mewtwo (Pre-MI)ever had this kind of dominance because it had a decent chance of bricking.Gyarados won't even brick
i swear this game chooses ex mons you will never get and ex mons you will get 5+ of
>>57120221Magikarp has 30 hp bub jist kill it lol
>>57120223Here's hoping trading isn't shit and I can move some Moltres ex for Zapdos ex without going bankrupt or praying for RNG
>>57120223Wonder picks are a relatively reliable way to get EX mons, it's just too bad you will never get immersive cards if you don't have luck with packs.Crown Rares is understandable but they should have a 5* wonder pick for immersive cards
Why exactly is the Gyarados deck considered busted when Celebi is running amok everywhere.
If i have 10 hp and poisoned but kill my opponenent with both of us at 2 points does my pokemon still die and we tie?
>>57120211I missed moltres ex 10 times already and I'll be buying it with pack points in 5 days, won't be paying for the premium pass.
>>57120246A KO has priority over poison, not over counter abilities like those of Poli or Drud, which give you a tie.
>>57120244I don’t agree with the Gyara dickriding, but Celebi is common simply for being the shiny new toy. The deck isn’t super consistent, and there are several relevant decks that can hit the 130 break point quickly.
>>57120244The game is just artificially rigging your Stage 1/2 servine/serperior draws to be late/never right now so Celebi isn't actually doing well right now to keep genetic apex f2p players from rioting, they'll remove this handicap in the next update and you'll start seeing Celebi dominate and Gyarados will get exposed.Don't ask me how I know this, my uncle works for Dena and my aunt works for Nintendo
>>57119878Yes if you’re not a pussy
>>57119627It is unironically the anti Gyarados thing
>>57120144We’re just aving a laugh m8, all the guys who won tournaments with it were just doing it for a bit of cheeky banter
>>57120244Celebi being popular doesn't mean it's goodSee: >>57119705
Now that Celebi is old and busted I can start bringing the deck into PVP where I will receive thanks after every game for playing a niche deck
>>57120088>if you hit your evo linesYeah, perfect topdecks are not my forte.
>>57120266>so Celebi isn't actually doing well right nowTell that to my opponents who always get Serperior on their 3rd turn.
Can I enjoy playing this game as a card collecting game? I'm not a metafag and I like playing what I like, the only card game I played before was Duel Links Exodia Bamboo Deck
>>57120311100% yes, this game is primarily a collector game and only a battle game secondary
>>57120311the name is misleading butbyou can collect since trading isnt going be available and the pvp is a joke
>>57120309sounds like a skill issue
>>57120311You need to go into solo mode a bit to get promo cards and hourglasses so you may have to build a working deck at least but PVP is entirely optional. Even the hourglasses offered by PVP is given out for just playing even if you lose, so you can just do a bunch of games and concede immediately
>>57120311The game gets boring fast if you're f2p you're gonna want to bully some Koreans
>>57120311There is no trading, the "game" part is extremely simplified, but you sure can spend money to collect jpgs if you want.
>>57120318>>57120322>>57120338I’m imagining it’s similar to Duel Links thats good enough for me thanks
I am the Metalchad
>>57120223All I wanted is mew and pidgeot
>>57120188Ih shit that's mineGlad it showed up for you
>>57120372Also from my 10 roll
Kind of bullshit that Misty and Erika work on any Pokemon of the appropriate type while Blaine, Brock, and Koga only work with a few specific ones
>>57120381I honestly think it wouldn't matter all that much if Blaine worked on every Fire type.
>>57119537do you really need all those trainer cards?
>>57120381women are whores what do you expect
>another gamewhere misty flips 3 heads on magikarpThey need to fucking nerf this piece of shit to one coin flip
>>57120382Blaine working on Moltres and Centiskorch would be pretty huge.
What is the best Dragonite deck? I know it's slow and basically needs stall tanks but I can't make anything work that well, though sadly I don't have Wigglytuff EX to try that
>>57120382>Giovanni but 3 times for Fire typeThat would be cracked
>>57120369Trading when?Why is Dena taking forever?
>>57120394I see people using gas leak Weezing and Koga for stall and free poison chip.
>>571203942x Druddigon2x Dragonite Family 1x Greninja family2x Oakball2x LeafThe rest of the trainer/item cards is really down to playing the deck and seeing what issues you come up with and what cards can solve them.There's probably a better use for the 3 slots that the Greninja family takes but that's what I run and can't think of anything else and I've got brainrot from the event 45 wins so I can't be bothered to even try to come up with something.My point is Druddigon is the best wall available, Leaf is essential the rest is down to you
Killed a Mewtwo EX player with Blaine. Both his Gards were stuck in the last 3 of his deck. Poor guy. We need better search cards.
>>57119546I for one, love to ass rape pika fags with my druddwhatever and tauros.
>>57120432Even if you hate him for playing Mewtwo you and Blaine can't just execute people like that
I love serperior but he's probably only good for celebi or venusaur decksThe former is really boring coinflip hell, but I liked Venu EX before the update, just can't get a second EX for the life of meBesides the new egg and dhelmise, who don't seem to be good enough on their own, I hope meganium is a bit more interesting
>>57120447>venusaur decksIt's terrible in venasaur decks
Wow I played a few games of weezing/scolipede to get my trans right tickets for the day and I didn't get a single thanks. Not even from the faggot starmie EX player who was doing 90 damage with 130hp on turn 5. Not even from the faggot with 2 celebi EX with the potential to one shot any card in the game with just 2 energies. They should thank me just for forcing me to play against their gay deck.
>>57120456I did not know that; how very unfortunate
>>57120050Christ we need a new chansey card3 energy for 60 damage is ridiculous
>>57120074>I fell for the arbok lock deck>I fell for the scolipede weezing deckc'mon fuckers give me a great ball or something, these shits bricks so fucking hard.
>>57120432As if they don't have Slab ahead of every other types. Sounds like (you)r the M2 guy
>playerbase misevaluated cards and completely disregarded one of the best cards in the set until it started putting up tournament results...twice in a rowThis is going to happen every set. Let this be a lesson to all of you. It takes a few weeks to realy get a handle on what's good and what isn't. Even this Gyarados EX shift is gonna probably swing back once people start building with it in mind.
What if I Butterfree + Mememetal? I don't think it'll work, but I want to become king of stall.
>>57120457People have been unexpectedly ungrateful in the PvP event. And they lose with meta decks. Fuck them up
if dubs my next pull will be godpack
>>57120466Who even says it's bad especially after Arcanine?
Bros I've seen the Nidolight.This is way more fun and less fraudulent than running Mewtwo/Gardevoir.
>>57119664No the Vaporeon category is Gyarados decks that run Vaporeon. The Arcanine and Charizard categories both run Moltres and Arcanine too.The total breakdown is15 Gyarados decks (2 with Vaporeon, 13 without)8 Pikachu decks (4 with Raichu, 4 with Zebstrika)4 Mewtwo decks4 Moltres decks (2 with Charizard, 2 without)1 Golem deck
>>57120469seems kinda hard to survive the early game, altought healing an energy-less melmetal with butterfree in the back sounds fun.
>>57120475bro wtf are you doing
Ah my two Blaine and two ninetails
>>57120471Wasn't a godpack but I got the 2nd Mew ex I was looking forNow for some double Mew ex + Expeditioner memes
finally hit 45 wins, this shit is even more lucksack coinflip than before and i didn't even consider it possible.
>>57120484owned cuck
>could never get the sabrina art>inmediately get the leaf artnow I realize god always has a plan
>>57120484what cards could fix this from happening as often as it does now?
>>57120497I'm only at 3 wins, but I'm running a deck with 2 Eevees and no other pokemon so yeah, win rate isn't great.
Not like this
>>57120505haaaa I want to taste her armpits ToT
>>57120512Winnable
The cliser I was to 45 wins, the more I realized how aids Druddigon is to deal with. There's a hint of Unova bias besides the Kanto one, looking at how versatile some of the cards are.
This deck is optimized for highest IQ play potential.
>>57120512Just believe in Dragonite and nuke Arcanine three times on random attacks, what's the problem?
could this save chansey in tcg pocket?
>>57120514>>57120521look at his energies
>>57120461
>>57120520Team Rocket hands typed this post
>>57120514>>57120521Answer>It's his turn, he's already used the energy for that turn, he doesn't have any water energy on D-nite, the opponent already has 2 points.
I thought Celebi was supposed to be the new meta, but I only saw one today. Instead I almost only fought against fire decks.
>>57120506Pokedex and slab.
>>57120471Verify these numerical representations of my post
>>57120526honestly thought this was a mock card using art from the drawthread
New vaporeon is straight up worse than the old one
>>57120469Throw some Drudds in there because fuck it why not
>>57120447>I love serperior but he's probably only good for celebi or venusaur decksFor now.
>>57120553>New vaporeon is straight up worse than the old oneWhat are you smoking.
>>57120469>>57120479Just beat a Blaine with Mememetal by sheer dumb luck, but I don't think it'd ever work reliably in the current meta. Blaine, Celebi, and Mewtwo can all stomp through Mememetal's stall. He definitely needs a wall to let him energize first. Although he's still fun to use and Leaf is an amazing boon to him.
>yugioh players continue to shit up this general for absolutely no reason
Starting to think the packs with really visible floppy dents (not just a little crease) are indications of a rare card pull since I've gotten 3 ex from these already
Nobody tell him.
Where's the mew please help please
>>57120591bottom right corner
>>57120591Bottom left
>>57120520>tfw I thought Weezing poisoned from the benchI don't know why (probably cause I never had that card until recently) but that card would've been a helluva lot stronger if it did.
>>57120591Top middle
>>57120591Middle
>>57120591Always top right
>>57120604Like 60% of the point of Koga is to Poison with Weezing and attack with something else.
>>57120591It won't move, bottom right
>>57120381Blaine should work on all fire types, Brock should work on all figting types, Giovanni should only work on Rhydon and Nidoking and Erika should only work on Vileplume and Tangela.
>>57120636Sabrina should only work on abra line too
>>57120107Fire energy or fire and water?
>>57120389Only if Gardevoir, Serperior and Moltres get nerfed to a single coinflip too.
>>57120639On or with?
>>57120642>switched over to Flareon because it’s easier on the energy reqsSounds like two types of energy,.
>>57120629>Like 60% of the point of Koga is to Poison with Weezing and attack with something else.I thought it was posion from the bench and then the mon that have poison related benefits like Scoliopede can attack harder.But now I know it's >poison from the active spot>retreat or koga>scoliopede runs in and does extra damage>lather>rinse>repeat

>>57120466What anti-Gyarados tech do we have available now?
>>57120654Hitmonlee and Zebstrika lmao
>>57120652im sorry bottom right corner bro
>>57120532The "matchmaking" is designed to make you face decks your deck is supposed to be bad against, but it sometimes bricks. Replacing 1 meta card with a non-meta card bricks it almost always.
>>57120654Early game bench sniping severly hurts the deck as previously mentioned (>>57120655). Aside from that, Charizard is the only ex in the game at the moment that can cleanly snipe it in one attack. The Charizard ex deck playstyle is also good into Gyarados, because Moltres ramping energy early avoids Drudd counter damage.
Gyarafags never learn
>>57120559That actually worked lol. Drudds was the stall and chip I needed to get my man ready to take kills. Two wins back to back. It's slow and can still use work but pretty fun.
>>57120655>playing fighting right nowI guess Pikachu can go back to being a #1 deck soon.
>>57120674Farfetch'd is slept on
>>57120666What if your opponent is playing the turbo variant instead of the slow variant?
>>57120526comically undersized snorlax
Kanga got powercrept fast huh>3 diamonds rarity>3 retreat>needs energy to deal damage
if lance doesnt give 1 energy to dragons... its over
>>57120700You don't want a Dragon meta
>>57120700>Lance>Flip a coin. If heads, discard one energy from your active dragon-type pokemon to deal 50 damage to a random enemy pokemon.
>>57120698Getting consecutive double tails turn after turn fucking stings man. Her main job is to sit there and tank yes but that 1 energy is still an investment
you know what would be nice? not only in this game but in general in competitve card games? if you could banish 1 card from geting matched against. thats fun
>>57120711>uses pikachu deck>I never want to face fighting decksyeah. too broken to use.
>>57120715ok and? its meant to be fun, water cucks ban pikachu
I just had someone concede against my drud/melmetal They were celebi and only had one out and two serpirior They refused to attack and just let me fully load two melmetals and have both drudd out as wellI assume they were looking for their next celebi to counter attack when the other goes down but they they could not draw more cards with a full hand
>>57119147I've seen one of Mew forcing him to jork it with psychic powers.
We need a banlist that ban all cards that draws or adds energy
>>57120738>turn one, 2 pokeballs 1 oak
>>57120723>ok and? its meant to be fun, water cucks ban pikachuno i get it. it just means that it's fun for you at someone else's expense. and everyone would use that to game the system.
>>57120742>your enemy plays 2 balls, oak, and 2 mystical slabs hits turn 1>your hand is 2 stage 2s, leaf, sabrina and a useless basic (your stage 1 won't be drawn until turn 9)Fair and balanced gameplay
>>57120674Gio is needed to ohko key cards like celebi and mew
Why are M2 players so fucking salty?
>>57120758He relies on the dragon to soften the ratgets.
>>57120755This scenario is so frustrating and happened so many times. ReeeeeeeeeeMy opening hand is always the basic I don't want, 2 Sabrinas and 2 xspeed/potions
I really wish Aero didn’t suck because this art is neat. Fossil support when?
A 2 Diamond card that needs a second stage to do decent damage with a reasonable amount of energies should not be giving my opponents this much hell, but here we are. I also like how it doesn't even need the second energy right away so I can start loading Celebi in the back or give my grass snakes a "Break in case of Sabrina" energy.
>>57120766Yeah I understand that but druddigon doesn't always soften the target you want
>>57120776Friend code please
>>571207854993645333618964Have at it. I think the pack expires today (and there may be a macro purging friends). Try it a few times and see if it works.
>>57120779IMO its whole purpose is being discount celebi.When I was first building a celebi deck and I was only missing my second celbi, I used dhelmise as a replacement to pretty good effect.
>>57120776>I really wish Aero didn’t suckif you can get aero before a celebi deck evolves their serperiors you kill their deck meta.
>>57120802Why wouldn't they just bench serperior and then still do their thing?
>>57120779It's a good backup for celebi
>>57120802It doesn't work. Aero only blocks evolving from the active slot, if they're on the bench they can do it freely.
>>57120806Sometimes you get lucky.But yeah the issue with him is that there's no deck right now that wants to evolve the active, ideally everyone is building up on the bench
>>57120779It's not amazing all the time, but if you can curve into Serperior in time, it's a 100 HP basic with a 2 energy 90 damage attack and that's nothing to scoff at.At worst it's just a 100 HP wall which can poke away at the opponent which is solid.
>>57120779I use 2x Exeggutor EX. Seems to work out pretty well.
>>57120791did you set up a bot for it
>>57120791Again blue fuck
Playing against mew ex with a dark deck is funny as fuck lmao>have a bunch of stage 1 evolution pokemon that deal 20 damage>out damaging his mew>he played Sabrina TWICE hoping I would switch in my evolved pokemon on the bench but I just kept switching in shitters
>>57120833>Why wouldn't they just bench serperior and then still do their thing?i too am personally getting sick of pulling the same full arts over and over and over.we better get the ability to trade our extra full arts for full arts we need. I don't need 4 each of exeggutor, salandlit and 3 each of marshadow.fucking hell.
>>57120847How can this be a problem? Are you really picking from God packs on the the regular? I haven't seen a single one in my feed despite adding anons
They really need to introduce cards like Great or Ultra Ball to help with stage 2 lines.
>>57120828Someone did. I scout around for the bot accounts specifically because most of the others that are posted publicly are a bitch to access.
I think it'd be neat if they released both Typhlosion and Hisuian Typhlosion in the Johto set.
>>57120863same
>>57120776I've been testing the Aerodactyl ex Primeape/Marshadow deck and at first glance it just seems like Aerodactyl simply slapped in since it also uses fighting energy, but it's actually a bit more than that. Primeape and Marshadow are the main core of the deck and they work well together, but sometimes you also need a little more firepower. Aerodactyl works because fossils are not basic Pokemon, so it's basically a side win condition that will not interfere with your starting hand and Pokeball searches
Why do the solo battles give more xp than versus ones? you don't even have to play them and get basically free glasses and xpI'm not complaining but it's puzzling
>>57120875Solo battles stop giving xp after you win
>>57120875because you only do these once
>draws entire deck>concedesGave me a hearty laugh and a chub.
I'm not convinced that Greninja Gyarados is actually good. It just feels more high-rolly. That said, I'm not sure what's better- could slap Giovanni Sabrina Xspeed into the mix but then you're just 100% reliant on getting Gyara online.Starmie Gyara feels like a bad meme
>>57120880What was your opponent doing that they had to concede after speedrunning through their whole deck while with a full bench and a Garde in the back?
Every deck in this godforsaken game is just enabler + big hitter + the obligatory draw cards. Why bother having a 20 card deck size at all when everyone needs to run pokeball and oak? Not even going to get into the coin flipping shit.
>>57120779This mon is so ugly How is a helm with an anchor a grass type?
>>57120898The seaweed, dummy
slogged to my 50 wins with aerodactyl machamp. This is the worst ex card in the game, bottom 2 bare minimum. The ability did not come into play even once or win me a game. 80 damage is horrible and falls short pretty much all the time, lightning weakness is icing on the shit cake.
>>57120799>discount CelebiNigga it's a Grass type Lapras
>>57120895Looking for a budding exp to bypass the no retreat on Mew.
>>57120898>uglyDhelmise is peak you have bad taste
>>57120877>>57120878yeah, but doing them all is enough to up you 2 levels or more, meanwhile winning pvp, which is objectively harder only gives you scraps
>>57120897pikachu EX doesn't need an enabler
>>57120916Yeah he needs 3
>>57120895It doesn't matter what they do? They can't escape the shocky web.
>>57120916Sometimes he doesn't even need Pikachu if you get lucky with Zapdos coin flips
hope we get different menus next seasondon't like seeing CHARIZARD and MEWTWO from KANTO
>>57120927Is this shit actually good or are you just dunking on people for the highlights? Really like Galvantula but it feels like a strong breeze would take his ass out. I get that he only exists to "trap" and then die / swap out but at 2 energy to do that it looks cumbersome.
The Flareon tech is real man. You can just build 3 energy on an Eevee against Celebi and the second you draw into a Flareon you instantly win the game.Is there anything other than DruddNinja it fits into? Eevee doesn't fit well into a Moltres or Blaine focused deck. Maybe just throwing it in a Pigeot EX deck and pumping up whichever has a better matchup?
>>57120902Regigigas is covered in moss but that doesn't make a grass type
>>57120932they didn't change the start screen for MI so I don't think they're gonna do that chief
>>57120382It NEEDS to be gated by energy or evolution. Dropping a new ponyta and hitting for 70 on turn 2 would be broken as fuck. I do think it should work with Arcanine (non ex) and Salazzle.On the topic of salazzle, why is it so fucked in the new set?
>>57120942dhelmise is the moss
>>57120869Do you have a list?
Hey, where's your Magikarp? I know you just Pokeballed it.
Reminder you can only post in this thread if you beat ALL the events.
>>5712093370 damage is a lot, and if he can survive one hit then 140 will take down most pokemon
>>57120869I don't know it seems more to me like he's just slapped in there because he's the highest HP and damage combination that fighting has right now on a stage 1. He's basically the fighting equivalent of Gyarados, except when you compare them Head to Head he's bad. The good news is that he's fast and occasionally his ability is going to be relevant, but you really can't count on itbut you really can't count on it
>>57120755if they have two pokeballs I feel like they're overextending using 2 slabs unless they couldn't get a ralts
>>57120779>ghost Pokemon>is a grass typeAlrighty then
>>57120957>water/fire deckI don't think he's running Karp, chief
>>57120933It's Arbok but trades 10 hp for 10 damage. The idea is to start chunking active pokemon that has energy on it putting them behind on energy in a situation they can't escape before they have any chance to set up.Just like Arbok, if you curve into it early and they don't start with a sacrificial tank in the active and something to build in the back then you will probably just win, but that's a matter of luck.
>>57120971Ghost/Grass.
>>57120975He was. He put it on the bench before conceding. Most likely forgot to uncheck the fire energy (not that it mattered).
>>57120959only 5 wins a row matter, the ultimate skill and luck and endurance checkREMINDER THAT IF YOU DONT HAVE IT YOU ARE BAD
>>57120970>overextendingI wonder who wrote this post...
>>57120986>drudd, tauros, Gyara, and Gren>with fire/waterMan his deck had one too many things going on anyways, no way he wins any games
>opponent red carded me when I have chatot active>ended up drawing 7 cards next turnHuh
>>57120953I used a variation of this, using standard Mankey and the new 1-energy Primeape or just Farfetchd instead to be even faster. Some builds forgo Marshadow altogether. It works surprisingly well from my testing, but fatter HP ex Pokemon that Marshadow cannot finish off will crumple the deck
bros....
>>57120914Have you done the math on how much EXP you get by doing the PVP events? 50 victories is 750 experience points. Around the same as solo battles. The 5 streak can net you as much if you keep trying unless you're super good and lucky.
>>57121022Why not promo Mankey?
>>57121028is this wonderpick fc autism?
>>57121029you're not considering the time investment in that, solo battles is just a matter of leaving your phone idling on auto mode
>>57121028Wtf is this guy blabbering about?
>>57121031Promo Mankey goes with Fight Back Primeape since it wants to hurt itself to maximize the effectThe other Primeape's a generic 80HP 50 attack beatstick so I prefer regular Mankey, you lose half the damage but in exchange it's very fast to set up
>>57121022Even the guy who did the write up acknowledges that aero is bad
>>57121028>Wonder picking is serious businesskek
>>57121043Oh I didn't see that you also use the one energy primeape, that makes sense then
>>57120776if pocket goes down the same road as the tcg, fossils will end up bad>as the card pool grows, generic support is introduced to get basics into play>fossils are excluded because their basics are items>becomes increasingly difficult to get your stage 2 fossils into play compared to every other deck>to compensate, give stage 2 fossils powerful abilities, shit like no evolving or no supporters to make fossils "worth playing">this doesn't address the main issue, which is fossils are hard to get up and running>now that fossils have these strong abilities you can't make them easy access>forever condemned to meme deck statushopefully things will be better
>>57120906Yeah this nigga is legendarily ass
Every card in his hand were heals.He still died to my second ninetails though
are the sweaty tryhards finished? i still havent started the event
>>57121058I'm done, yeah.
>>57121028I actually hate these groups. Nothing wrong with keeping your circle of influence small, especially if you aren’t using a macro to speed things up, but let’s not beat around the bush. These guys are almost all in it for attention and praise. If that’s from Koreans only? That would be discrimination (not that I give a fuck).Just an FYI for anons: these groups are exceptionally annoying to participate in. It’s nothing but attention seekers and the biggest retards you can imagine (who also ruin the process for everyone else).
>>57121049Where are you going down that same route because stage 2s are already basically unplayable, this is a problem that is plagued the real game from the beginning
>>57120959I don't want a big 2 on my profile, people will think I'm a silver medal celebrating bitch
>>57120933It's decent for a non-ex but the meta is too fast right now. You lose if you go first. If you go second and draw them both, that's 100 damage on a Pokemon that can't retreat which you can then deal another 70 damage to. The problem comes after, like you said, it's fragile and easy to revenge kill. It needs something to come after it but there is nothing fast enough in this meta (other than the EX like Pikachu I'm intentionally not using). That's why I'm trying Tauros, it hasn't done anything yet other than stall, 3 energy is too slow for this meta. Raichu depending on the variant is either too fragile or doesn't hit hard enough. I'm waiting to try Magneton but I can just tell it will be clunky. I know the entire design of electric types is low HP and high attack but a chunky electric type would be great as a follow up. Heck I would take something with Explosion.tldr: just non-meta fun to bully metafags
>>57121037again, you're not doing that always. Just once. There's people that get super filtered by PvP, their only chance is PvE but even then they might fold to a simple Venu EX battle, so giving them all the rewards at once is good design leaving the tickets for challenge if they feel engaged enough. For people like you and me it is different, you get the same amount of EXP but in a long lasting event because you're a battle maniac, you need to defeat people to get your dopamine fix. You will get only double the rewards than the little kids and the super busy people that can't keep up playing all day all days. It is fair and balanced.
>>57121078I feel like you could maybe cook something with EelektrossGalvZapados EX (tank)If only there was some kind of electric energy acceleration
>>57121058No, I just decided on which meta deck I would run.
>>57121078So where's the list
>>57121087>If only there was some kind of electric energy accelerationLt. Surge. He's good and meta :^)
>deckbuilder resets the energy types my deck usesAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA FUCKING STOP THAT>>57120779>Lapras but grassthey're both RNG about whether you hit with your batteriesLapras can attack turn one tho
>druddigon and leafEw
>>57121107You WILL play fire energy with Drudd
>>57121107>change an item or supporter>like not even adding/removing a mon that requires that energy type>Hey you forgot to add this energy :)
So what's a good Fire/Water deck setup to actually potentially swing with Drudd every now and then? 90 damage for 3 is fairly pricy but I feel like 110/120 swinging after roughskin (potentially with Gio) hits a decent amount of breakpoints
New Golem most of the time is just better than Ex Machamp. Also new aerodactyl is the 2nd worst ex in the game.
>>57121116Some people have success with flareon+greninja. Its not a bad deck
>>57121116I think actually putting energy on Drudd will just cost you in other areas
>>57120959
>>57121116Closest thing you're gonna get
>>57121116Seconding that adding Flareon fixes Druddinja's issue of being decent to good vs most decks but eating shit to Celebi.It's funny because I assume my opponents are just assuming it's a 12 year old deck when they see Druddinja+Froakie+Eevee, but then after they get their first KO you switch in Eevee and surprise evolve into Flareon to deal 130 to their 5 energy Celebi.
>>57121137There are times where its worth, but yeah sadly it seems the optimal way to play drudd is to just toss it out as a wall and build something op in the back. Its why gara and greninja are so effective. Gyarados is an OP stage 1, and frog acts as a giovanni that allows you to one shot mewtwo.

>>57121087I don't have Eelektross but a stage 2 would be too slow for this deck. Zapdos is decent but this is an autism no-EX deck. If I get a second regular Zapdos, I'll try it.>>57121095It's just an alternative on >>57117648Take out the Raichu for Tauros and Gio. It's just an experiment.
>>57121141>2 immersive 1 fa and 3 regular celebi>not a single fucking Mew ExI guess I don't get to have fun
Ok can we talk about how badly Gyarados cucks dragonite? The fact that we have a stage 1 water type that is not dual energy AND can set up fast due to Misty. Holy shit, this card got worse this update
Should I use my 2 week premium pass trial now or save for later?
>>57121116Flareon, I run 1 Eevee because other basic rolls are too important, the 2 free slots are good for Potions which are absolutely huge for Drudd.
>>57121148Just run a second druddigon, that's more optimal anyway
>>57121154yes
>Played around 10 matches today>Not a single M2 in sightHonestly I'd rather see the meta shifting towards Gyarados than M2/Pika fuckery we had with GA.Constant meta changing is better than no changes at all.
>>57121146Damn I've never seen a godpack in wonderpicks
>>57121154save until middle/late january so you get the free promo moltres ex and get the extra packs for the johto set
>>57121149SHE will save dragon types
>>57121169I've never even seen a God pack
>>5712113790% of the time it’s never the move but if you’re playing another slow deck and you both brick then you can get an insane amount of pressure that the other guy (especially if he has neutered drudds) can’t get.
>>57121146Okay so how does this work? You join discord where bots farm accounts, you add all the new godpacks, they add you and then when the WP shows to you?
How do I get better at flipping coins?
>>57121179Spend more
>>57121177I assume so
>Pidgeot EX on 3 wonder picks>Get zeroI'm about to crash out
>>57121147>Not even the Raichu deck runs surge Kek
Gyarados is truly insane, look at the pokemon side by side with blastoise and convince me that one isn’t completely better than the other.
>>57121193I swear to god I havent wonder picked successfully a single time since the set dropped, like at least 15 picks completely whiffed, they must have flipped a switch or something
>>57121179Practice slowly dragging the coin up and into the active pokemon with the slowest speed that still triggers the flip animation.Works about half the time to get a head on the first flip. The other flips after are random, though
>>57121193Same for me with celebi EX.Tried 4 times for it and failed all. Finally got it from a pack few minutes ago.
>>57121146>all one starsThis is the shittiest God pack I've ever seen besides the gloom one
Just got a second Drud from Wonder Pick, now I just need a second Gyara EX.
How come so many people don't give a thanks after a battle? It literally costs nothing.
>>57120902I run this to pretty good success
>>57121212Because FUCK YOU
>>57121212Im going to give these people the benefit of the doubt, and its that thanks has been put above the X that lets you get out of the match screen, when all the previous screens have you tapping where the X is, I bet if they swapped locations you would get a thanks 99% of the time
>>57121216This looks terrible
>>57121212I played a few matches today, and only got 1 thanks, I wonder if it's because of my new green emblem.
>>57121212What deck are you playing?
>>57121198>Gyarados is truly insane, look at the pokemon side by side with blastoise and convince me that one isn’t completely better than the other.Gyarados was always the better water pokemon. It was and will always be one hell of a unit.
>>57121228Raticates +16 supports
>>57121212It costs 3.3 seconds
Are mythical island tickets just for the Mew emblem or is something else coming?
>>57121201jej
>>57121212I only give thanks if one of these things happen>I won>I lost, but the match was fun>I lost, but my opponent took the kill and didn't spent another minute unnecessarily setting upIn the last case I'll outright concede before he has time to attack so he doesn't get the points.
>>57121221It works but stick to meta faggotry i guess
>>57121193I've got two of the goddamned things as well as a full art. Please take one of mine.
>>57121201>Works about half the time
>>57121263Yeah I have 4 of the fuckers so I'm determined to use themIt's actually bretty gud but I'm still mad because I don't even have one Golem
>>57121171peroperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperoperopero
>>57121211I've not even got 1. My luck in mystical Island packs is absolutely horrid. >no mew ex but 2 FA Serperiors
Why is Druddigon so fucking ugly?
>>57121276He's cute
>both Gyarados at the bottom of the deckI can only stall for so long
>>57121116i use Tentacruel/Salazzle(Poison) if you wanna do something differentBalls/Oaks/Leafs for core items/supportersit's not tier 1 but i have fun with it
>>57121147I like this idea but it feels like it's missing something. Galvantula can 2hko Mewtwo with gio which is pretty great, but tauros is too slow to even get online and you only have 4 basics. I wonder if druddigon would help
wtf is a metal pokemon
>>57121285Bro you're Chatot?
>>57121212I used to give it to everyone, but after Mythical Island I stopped thanking NPC metashitters. If after 2 months you're still having "fun" by playing a braindead deck where you can literally just do the same thing every single game without giving a shit about what your opponent is playing like some dumb AI then I didn't enjoy versing you, it's just boring. This includes:- pikachu ex- mewtwo ex- charizard ex- any misty deck with articuno ex or starmie ex or gyarados ex- celebi ex
Aero will come in handy in the future. Mark my words.
>>57121320Mark deez nuts
>>57121320Consider it marked
>>57121302No, I'm Tom
>>57121320when we get another floodgate that prevents evolution in the bench inshallah
overall confirmed celebi is dogshit. Holy shit man, this could have been a wonderful support cars for the many stage 2 grass types in this game. Instead its a selfish piece of shit that needs energy splashed onto it and a specific stage 2 to accompany it.
>>57121336>Let's make stage 2's even worseYeah I don't think so.
>>57121318What about Arcanine without Charizard.
>>57121340Serperior and celebi should have been swapped. Celebi could have been the support for all the grass stage 2's like venu and instead we got what we got
>>57121318cont.- gyrados ex- mew ex- dragonite - moltres ex- egg x- pigeon ex- onyxSo yeah, if you're a NPC shitter I'm not thanking you.
>>57121340what went wrong?
>>57121347That would be good game design thougheverbeit
>>57121349>Onyx
>>57121347Serperior's ability on a basic, and you think that'd be better? Are you an imbecile, sir?
>>57121354Not necessarily the same thing but celebi should have been a support in the vein of moltres ex
>>57121318>>57121349show deck
Lmao someone made a YouTube video of gyrados ex fossilbros deckhttps://youtu.be/VhaaenNkK2I?si=oq5o4514Y88PojrC
>>57121175Same.
>>57121197Surge is good but it doesn't work with a suicide lead like Galvantula. I'll try him again when I get Magneton, otherwise he does absolutely nothing.>>57121290It is missing a lot. Mewtwo is hard to kill unless you get him on turn 2 with Joltik and curve into it. You also have to account for 2 Potions. Druddigon is good, I might try it but this deck really needs to be doing more damage. You only need all the supporters but when you don't draw into them it feels really bad.
>>57121357I don't get the purpose of this when the fossils can count as a point
>>57121276Gen 5 is why
Maybe the schizos are right? Seems like the game is purposely throwing starmie/articuno in my fire deck’s face to try and slow down my ~80% win rate. I lose to lucky Misty plays more than anything else in this game, regardless of the deck I use.
>>57121361so you pokebal the karps
>>57121201>Works about half the timeThat would certainly be an improvement for me.
>>57121361You discard most of the fossils, and leave one or two for Sabrina.
Heh, got a pity concede from a pika player just now after bricking out with my sad little magikarps and leafs, you aight electric boi
>>57120916>>57120928I once won without ever drawing my PikaEX. Think my raichu and zapdos won the the fight. https://files.catbox.moe/ynuqff.mp4
>>57121340It's the new mouthbreather deck, I'm not particularly surprised. As expected it has dumb players that put too much energy on a single Celebi instead of spreading it out because of WOW HUGE NUMBER>>57121349I already included gyarados ex doe. As the original poster I disagree with everything but moltres ex. Mew ex is a curious case since most people have no idea how to use it so I don't mind it>>57121345If you don't run moltres ex you're based in my book. If you do, you're better than kantozardfags, but still cringe>>57121356I'm a Brockchad, currently testing this, but I dislike how Drudiggon just sits there doing nothing, even if it performs decently. I tried Dugtrio for a long time but haven't made it work well enough yet since I run out of deck space
I've never seen a Mewtwo player fail on a slab. It always draws pokemon for them.
>>57121381I want Brock to work but it still feels too slow
>>57121377I got 2 pity concede from Mewtwo players, one for the 5 consecutive medal, one for when I made an obvious misplay. Makes me unable to hate them.
>>57121382Oreo is too powerful, you can even use it outside psychic decks.
>>57121386Honestly I am fine with how fast you can get to a charged golem if you don't get completely bricked, and the new version has a lot more staying power. The old one usually would KO an ex pokemon and then instantly die, which often resulted in a tie in my games. I would just buff onix to be honest, let golem be slow, but at least make onix a standout earlygame powerhouse when combined with brock, so that it can reliably buy time for golem or machamp
if i dont get a regular dragonite from the pack or wonderpick im finna snap
>>57121382all i did was fail slabs so i stopped playing that deck
>>57121381>because of WOW HUGE NUMBERIn my case it's because I need at least 10 provided energy on Celebi to do 150 damage. Too many tails. It's not a fun deck to play at all.
>>57121147I've given this a shot but it's yet another one of these cards that looks interesting but that you can't play because EX cards are too fast and too strong.No matter how pathetic it is to bitch about balance constantly, this game would really be a blast without EX cards, so many more fun strategies would be viable than stacking energies ASAP on an EX card.
Name a more iconic duo than mistyfag and brown skin
>>57121426Celebi emblem and misplaying.
>>57121414If I were to (god forbid) play this, I'd just go by average damage you can expect. If you put 3 energy on a single Celebi, it still does an average of 150 damage per turn with Jungle Totem. Beyond that point, it might be a better idea to start charging up the other one to not just lose on the spot when your active one dies or whiffs an attack
>>57121146>God packs on the worst pack so far that you can God Pack onMy condolences, getting a God pack back when it was still only Genetic Apex actually meant something. A lot of those cards are ass.
>>57121434The active ones always whiffs an attack and the backup one does too, so I need overprovisioning. I only start attaching to the 2nd one after the first one has 5.
>>57121349bro you forgot golem decks...
>>57121445And just to be sure, also add Machamp ex, Marowak ex, Blastoise ex, fucking cancer Venusaur ex and Gardevoir to get rid of the memes.
