What the fuck is this shit? If you want the coolest looking flair it can take double as many copies of the card depending on the pack you chose to start with?
You just know
i don't know how but just kill water decks next set
>>57127469Pikachu wasn't enough to keep water decks down during GA. Abandon hope.
>>57127469Water decks will be getting free energy forever and you will like it.
>>57127455stop flocking to arcanine it is MY contrarian deck
>>57127465>He forgot
>pidgeot, aero, and celebi>no gyarados>no mew>still need shit from the other packs toofuck
Can someone tell me, does Old Amber only have 1 flair or does more open up if you do the 1 shown?
>>57127469>Dark Misty>Choose on of your water pokemon, and flip a coin until you get heads. For each tails take a water energy from your energy zone and attach it to the pokemon.
When you know your opponent doesn't play Dragonite that they choose to power up Mew over their Mewtwo with no full bench to soak up Dragonite's damage kek
>>57127455>Aerodactyl in B
>>57127469leave gyarados to me
>>57127501>If heads, do X>If tails, do Ywhy can't we have more coinflips like thisGA Buzz doesn't count
>>57127484
>>57127501That's great actually, would be a great ca->stage 2
>>57127496mew users are stupidI battled one who copied my EX Pikachu and bricked himself with a 30 damage attack
>>57127519kek everytime
>Drudd/Gyara with Giovanni and SabrinaFairs I got dabbed on because it came down to me assuming he had neither on 2 crucial turns, tournaments being open deck kind of takes the fun out of having surprises like that. He’s twice the gigachad if that’s 0 Misty
I just battled a Blaine player who conceded instead of trying their luck with Tail Whip.No self respect, some people.
>>57127508
>turn 1 have blitzle out>opp has eevee and magikarp>turn 2 he mistys for 3 head on magikarp>turn 3 a play Zebstrika and snipe magikarp>he scoops Omega kek, get fucked fagola
>ex basics can no longer be pulled by pokeball or show up in starting handThere, fixed Mewtwo without touching his absurdly overtuned stat line or energy requirements
>>57127469Just bring out EX Gengar first turn, no misty, ezclap
>>57127599What's this hand sculpting bullshit? Just raise the victory condition to 4 points.
>>57127465Know so thoroughly you don't have to look at it.
>>57127501>celebi takes 20 damage per boosted energyBootleg Life Orb, yes please.
>>57127508Fine, I'll bite. Who is the real VTuber? What does she really look like because that Panty & Stocking shit no es buena.
>>57127619Not a vtuber. It's a one-off character from an advertisement.
>>57127508>>57127589
>>57127496Not the double dragon with Tauros! Do you just do zero damage for the first 5 turns on average or?
>>57127496I played against a mew that tried to use my attack against me + giovanni to break the mold and one-shot my mon.That mon was melmetal. Needless to say, retaliating with the same strat made them instantly concede.
>>57127622Tragic. Hopefully they'll use her in future advertisements.
>>57127641Hopefully they give her an actual look, like Hololive and shit.
>>57127519I played against a Mew player that after I sent Zebstrika to the front (I only had Dedenne and Zapdos on play and I was scared of Mew getting Zapdos attack and having more luck with it). I attacked his 50 HP Mewtwo EX once with Zebstrika, then in his turn he used Giovanni and atacked my Dedenne that had 40HP left that was in the bench. I killed his MewtwoEX and won in the next turn.
What is the most damage someone has ever done with a Celebi? I swear there was a webm with like 40 flips
>>57127636>Do you just do zero damage for the first 5 turns on average or?welcome to Druddigon meta anon
Mew's only weakness is the players lack of comprehension, lel
>play my dark deck>you are going first>enemy leads OnixFuck off man LITERALLY nothing I can do
playing the card games gave me an itch to play the games but they're all fucking trash after Blackwhat do???
>>57127655the max damage the game will let you do is 990, people already did it in premades
lol
>>57127660play the old games?
>>57127660Play romhacks. There are hundreds to choose from for all the old games.
>>57127678any actual good ones though?
>>57127681Crystal legacy.
>spend 28 hourglasses to wonderpick rainbow border Mew>museum mission gives 36 hourglasses in return Well that was a happy surprise.
>>57127687and what makes this one good?
>>57127681Clover
Any cool decks that actually attack with Druddigon?
>>57127708I've never seen that in-game. Anon posted a Tentacruel Salazzle list that looked cool.
>>57127708The only feasible ones to play it with are polliwog
>>57127708dragonite i guess or flareon/vaporeon
>>57127708the one with flareon and greninjayes its quite based
>>57127708Greninja+Flareon. It won't be too often that attacking with Druddigon is the best option but it comes up.
>>57127708Druddigon is good because it can ping for same damage for zero energy while you load up your actual sweeper on the bench. Investing energy into Druddigon defeats the entire purpose for why it's played.
>>57127722StackExchange-esque non-answer. If you weren't going to answer you could have not posted. Go eat shit.
>>57127708>>57127711idk if it's cool but here it is againflexibility and low expectations are your friend. keep at least one Salandit unevolved and pay attention to your energy. but most importantly have fun
>>57127722Wrong. The reason anon wants to play it is because it's cool and attacking with it makes it cooler.
>>57127660Have you actually play them? If you haven't, how do you know they're trash?XY is really good, haven't played gen 7, Sword/Shield is good, and Legends Arceus is amazing. Scarlet and Violet has its moments but there are too many flaws to even call ot decent. Oh, and BDSP is mid I guess, people hate it, because they didn't add much stuff, but is decent if you want to just play gen 4 with different graphics, and don't mind the chibi overworld characters.Aside from SV, if you like the old games, there's no reason to hate the new games unless you're one of those picky guys that can't stand 3d models for some reason, or something like that.If you want to scratch that itch in other ways, you can also play spin off games like the mystery dungeon ones, or mobile shit like Unite (pokemon moba, it's fun).
>>57127708You almost don’t ever want to attack with Druddigon unless it’s against another slow deck and you both brick OR you draw 2 druddigon and no Flareon/Mew, and you can build the one on your bench. That said it’s a very nice tool to have at your disposal.
>>57127738>XY is really goodstopped reading there
>>57127738>XY is really good
>>57127738>Sword/Shield is goodjesus fucking christ
>>57127722Dude, it's just like playing a non meta card. You can make similar arguments with any mid card, there's reason to play them because there are better options.>>57127735This.And yeah I'll try the Greninja Flareon one, and the Tentacruel one, thanks.
>>57127603enjoy being forced to play decks that can reliably deal with both m2s every match instead of just 1 and a mook lol
>>57127660Don't trust >>57127738 on XY. He's right about PLA though.Give US/UM a shot if you can, too.
>>57127770La is dogshit, sorry senpai.
>>57127748>>57127754>>57127760Please explain why someone that like Pokemon in general would hate those games. Unless you're just talking shit and can't back it up.Even if they dislike some aspects, most people would have a lot of fun playing them.Hard mode: don't say 3d models or national dex.
>>57127748>>57127754>>57127760I'm not understanding the issue with his thoughts, here.
romhacks tend to over correct the original games. Like oh you thought gen 6 was too easy? heres my rom hack where every gym leader and trainer has 6 pokemon with perfect coverage and broken AI. I hate that shit.
>>57127455Oof. What happened to Celebi?
>>57127774Because they've played the older pokemon games and have come to expect some level of quality probably.
>>57127779People realized it's Mewtwo minus slab minus reliable damage.
>>57127779It's a good deck that can't convert in a tournament environment because luck will screw you over sometimes even when you do everything right.
>>57127785>because luck will screw you over sometimes even when you do everything right.That's every deck.
>>57127789And adding another layer of luck where your attacks sometimes just don't do what you need them to makes it worse.
https://streamable.com/ljokf2 fuckin based@thread whats shinedust good for as f2p
Man they gotta fix double energy decks so you can't get the same color energy more then twice in a row or something.I had a pretty shitty start but bro got stuck with 5 lightning energy in a row.He ended up winning thanks to some perfect draco meteors ignoring my golem. He deserved it after waiting that bullshit out.
>>57127798They might add more uses for shinedust, like spending it to trade. And maybe when trading comes out you can try to flair out your favorite deck.
>>57127780Dude it's basically the same thing.That "level of quality" is just small details that most people don't mind, but it's game breaking for autists like people in this board.Like come on, gen 6 has megaevolutions. Time has proven how much people liked them.
>discard 1 card to draw 1 cardthoughts
>>57127800>5 lightning energy in a row.god bless. that's the biggest problem i have with running >>57127729card games are supposed to be about weathering inconsistency and opportunity cost but whatever benefits there are to running dual energy (multiple type advantages, Dragon mons) are dwarfed by mono-decks' payoffs.i wonder if making it so that the same energy can't be produced more than 3 times in a row would be too strong
>>57127800>He ended up winning thanks to some perfect draco meteors ignoring my golem.Are you me? I had the same thing happened to me except the opponent was stuck with water energy.
>>57126951Wait, it's zero retreat cost? Hilarious!Threw something together and sniped the Snivy to death before they could react.Got Lapras installed in the background to do decent hits.Unfortunately I misplayed at the end. They set eggexecute and I could have normal retreated Lapras and snipe it over Celebi for game.Recipe not set in stone yet, but first thoughts are two of each:Nu-Vaporeon (4)Lapras (2)Lumineon (4)Oak, Ball, Leaf, Misty (8)Last two undetermined.
>>57127785Yeah I guess is a deck that maybe has a higher win rate, and once is set up, you're done.But since is not consistent, even the best players will lose sometimes, which kinda guarantees you won't make it to top 8 in a torubament, right?I'm just trying to make sense of it, since to me the deck is so fucking broken, it's kinda weird to me it's not winning everything, but I'm trash, so I don't know.
considering putting mew ex into my weezing/arbok deck, thoughts?
>>57127800It should at least tell you more than what next turn's energy will do so you can plan around it. Also a trainer card to swap your energy to another type in your deck. Having like, a Flareon(1 fire 2 colorless) against a Celebi deck, and seeing your next two energy are non-fire, and having to take a 50/50 on whether the third or fourth will be the fire you need to instantly win the game is agonizing.
>>57127811Trash but we desperately need card draw, so people would play it still, at least if it's and object and not a supporter.
>>57127821>Last two undeterminedprobably Gio to break Drudd with a full Laprasany deck without at least one 100 attack mon should run Giovanni as a rule of thumb
>>57127698Lots of balance changes so shitmons are usable.
>>57127779As it turns out flipping coins isn't as good as solid reliable damage. Who'd have thought it?
>>57127823Celebi has absolutely broken matchups against a lot of decks since if you can't win ASAP or can't one shot it, then it'll win like 90% of the time because it can deal good damage early on, heal to shrug off damage, and retreat before coming in for a game winning swing.So it could just be your deck.
>>57127826Apparently Scolipede is better.
THE FUCKIN 2 retreat is rough
>"this new common card goes in every deck now bro its so good!">only one copyEvery fucking time with this game.
If you pull down the menu it slides down, you don't need to scroll to the top, just learned this. Also don't forget you can swipe through the cards by swiping on the bottom tab.
>normal people dont get auto play for pvp>but you play vs bots 3/4 of the time anywaygreat game
>>57127826Mew's a literal wildcard so it's hard to say
guys, coin flips suck but that isnt the flaw with celebi. Its the HP pool, 130 is terrible for an endgame attacker to have. Mewtwo having 150 is super adequate. Also the card is useless until you evolve into serperior.
>>57127838You're not understanding, I'm talking about tournaments results. I'm doing fine with the deck myself.
Apparently in a recent tourney after yesterday golem jobbed into having a 38% win rate. That card is getting really overrated
>>57127842anon...
>>57127840been playing around with scolipede too yeah
>>57127738I played sword and shield yes and thats when I knew pokemon was fucking deadI thought about X/Y because it's closer to the original formula compared to the dogshit that was Sw/ShMight give Black2 a since I played Black 1
>>57127844You've got a 20 card deck, draw 5 at the start, have two cards that thin out your deck and two more that are a free +1. If it's not something you need to draw in the first couple turns 90% of games then you can run it at 1 and you'll often find it by the time you need it.
>>57127840>>57127826Replace tauros with mew
>>57127846Now try pinching the screen.
>>57127842it's just, why the fuck does GEODUDE have 2 retreat?>inb4 70hpso?
>>57127859You're not giving any actual reasons as to why it's supposed to be so bad.My guess is you got older, most people stop enjoying games, especially if it's something they used to enjoy but has several changes.
Celebi is bad at stalling, thats the issue. You buy time to get serperior evolved but if something dies, then all your opponent has to do is sack something to Celebi, then one shot it with a relatively strong pokemon. ggs
>>57127831That's a good point with Gio.Also it just donned on me that I can abuse Flute with this deck so bad. I was wondering when I'd get to figure out something for that thing, ha
>>57127855Those deck names are great
>>57127850>Also the card is useless until you evolve into serperior.*can be uselessthey both take the same energy, they both *can* do the same damage, but Celebi can also either fail or exceedsafety vs payoffSurf vs Hydro Pumpflip a coin
>>57127867Basically my issue with Sword was that it was a hallway simulator and it was unbelievably easy. There wasn't really any world exploration or dungeons, it was just go straight through the game with no obstacles. PLA looks cool but I want to play a traditional pokemon game.>tfw Gold will literally never EVER EVER be topped
>>57127455>ex ex>Csee me after school
Question for F2P players. How many 2 star rarity cards do you have? Not higher, just 2 star specifically. I only have 5 and that feels pretty low for a 2% chance.
holy fuck deck weighting has been meta defining for dragonite we are so back https://streamable.com/liv4gtsomeone try it out to make sure im not seeing things
XY isn't a good game and is about as difficult as as Pajama Sam. That being said I think it's worth a playthrough for how pretty the entire region is. Probably the best looking map in the entire franchise Unova is a second.
>>57127871wtf dude I was stumped on the use of Flute ever since it came out
>>57127880>Pinsirabsolute madlad
>>57127882hey leave those children in japan driving to school on their bike alone
We need 30 card decks fucking right now, it's the only way to get evo decks functioning and to nerf all Ex mons at once.
>>57127885dumb Aquapostervery first things anons thought of when seeing Flute were Volcarona and EXGeot
>>57127882>random fucking golurk>hand scopeoh no no no what the fuck is you doing baby??
>>57127899>she doesnt know
>>57127840Been running an alt of this deck with Jiggly/Wiggly. Most fun I've had.
>>57127877>There wasn't really any world exploration or dungeons, it was just go straight through the game with no obstaclesthis was my biggest issue with SWSH too. people always try to boil down their defense or criticism to mechanicsand QOL stuff, but that aside I just found the game so bland. Pokemon needs a well crafted world to be engaging imo, and recent games really miss the mark on that. FWIW I really enjoyed PLA and I didn't expect to, it surprised me. I understand if you want to play a more traditional game but it's worth thinking about. even though the mechanics and formula are different, it gave me more of the classic feeling of adventure and exploration that I really associate with older Pokemon.
>>57127885PokeFlute is pretty good for Victreebel as well.
>>57127840Been running an alt of this deck with Moltres/Charizard. Most fun I've had.
>>57127873ok but luck goes both ways. Remember that a shit load of people enter a tourney using one deck, a few are bound to get favored coin flips and make top cut. That didnt happen because celebi issues are beyond the coin flips, 130hp is just bad for whats supposed to be your attacker in the end game. It doesnt stop either, theres not enough energy to go around. Celebi ideally wants 3 energy (becomes 6 with serperior) so it has a decent chance to one shot.
>>57127860But its drugg...
>>57127882what does deck weighting mean
>>57127881>I only have 5 and that feels pretty low for a 2% chance.Isn't it 0.5% chance? 5 doesn't seem that bad, I only got 2 from GA. I did get a godpack with 4 of them from MI though.
>>57127917That they assign a score to your deck based on the quality of the cards you run, so if you run Pokedex+Handscope you'll go against children with horribly constructed decks. It's the latest conspiracy theory for the game. And I kinda believe it.
>>57127914>not enough energyPlay Lilligant.
>>57127914>130hp is just bad for whats supposed to be your attacker in the end game.that much i can cede. it's probably like that because they figured everyone would run it with Erika so it could be an effective 230 HP as opposed to M2's effective 190 with just Potions> theres not enough energy to go around.this is once again going to come down to RNG, so i'm not going to say much more there.
>>57127929>spend 2 energy to gain 1 and give the opponent a point
>Umbreon's japanese name is Blackydid they really
>M2 M2 M2 mew2 mew2 mew2Shut the fuck up illiterate faggots, just write the whole name.
>>57127936no u
>>57127936nothing triggers me more when I see normies use "Zard" instead of charizard
Decks can be good and inconsistent. It just means you would see a bulk of celebi players do great one week and poorly another. The fact that no celebi players did all that good tells you that the flaw is beyond coincidence flips. Its like Wigglytuff, sleep is broken but everything else about the pokemon is bad. 140hp, 3 energy to attack, no type advantage, 80 damage.
>>57127936Fucking faggy ミュウツー users I swear to god.
>>57127938>pika>venu>relationshit>vibe
>>57127938I would just call it a Char deck but I don't want you to get it mixed up with Charcolt.
>>57127887i do it for the lulzI used to have parasect in this insane clown posse, but I switched to A1a exeggutor. I also don't want to use the Serperior and Celebi like all the scrubs
>>57127954nice deck weighted enemies>machamp exbro
Am I crazy or is there no way to check in game when the current premium pass rotation ends?
>>57127913Meant to say replace Tauros / Pokeball with Jiggly/Wiggly.

>>57127779Christmas
Really hope you can trade multiple cards for one card when it drops. Want to fleece someone here for a shit ton with my FA Leaf.
>>57128035Haven't you seen discord trannies abuse the fuck out of wonderpick with bots? They even shill it here.There's no way they're letting us trade without heavy regulations.
>>57128039>There's no way they're letting us trade without heavy regulations.That'd be true even without the WP dick sword.
>>57127954>>57127957it's always hilarious to me that anti-meta fags have this air of superiority but can only perform when matched with literal children. you're not playing in some secret non-EX meta that rewards deeper strategizing, you're actually just playing against retards and kids. the truth is, these players probably wouldn't be able to succeed in a meta matchup even if they had a full meta deck, and that's why they avoid it so vehemently. but hey whatever makes you feel good about yourself I guess.
>Blaine is deadI only play aggro decks. See ya next set maybe.
>>57128039No idea how people waste that much free time.
Press S to spit on Celebi deck mains.
What does it mean when people claim bots are responsible for getting good wonder picks? Troons are somehow running dozens of bot accounts on Android emus (which can't even run the game)? Why can't I fucking pull any of the waifus???
>>57128026>First Lapras hawk tuahs the first mon down with 20s>Electrode gets the revenge kill>Second Lapras comes and gets funded by Vaporeon for one shot revenge kill>Opponent sends Dragonair>Flute the dead Voltorb and spit on it>Dragonite hurls insults at me in dragonese>ForfeitsIt's certainly one way to play alright. More goofy than anything.
>>57128049How?
>>57127938
>>57128048Wtf is blud talking about
>>57128049Blaine has a great matchup vs the most common deck online though. Nobody bothers bringing it to tournaments so it doesn't regularly place high so people rate it lowly.But you're not going to a tournament, you're just playing for fun so that doesn't matter.
>>57128056It can't compete with Drudiggons and Gyarados. People are trying to run the new Rapidash and Moltres in it now so it's not even fast anymore.
>>57128053>Troons are somehow running dozens of bot accounts on Android emusYes, then they are using macros to accept friend requests and then after a while unfriend everyone and repeat so that the hundreds of people spamming requests can get in and wonder pick that pack.
>>57128071Sounds like bullshit, Pokepoke doesn't run on emulator (I've tried).
>>57127936Mewtroon
>>57128066>It can't compete with Drudiggons and GyaradosIts not a great matchup but its winnable. It sucks hitting the drudigg wall but if you're quick enough you can snipe magikarps for an easy win. And the deck is still fine in most other matchups.>>57128066>People are trying to run the new Rapidash and Moltres in it now so it's not even fast anymore....So don't run them then?
i thought you numbnuts told me pikachuex is irrelevant nowwtf happened
>>57127865
>>57128055>hawk tuahI water deck main simply because the splash damage sound effect is the most satisfying.
>5mb download ?
>>57128087probably fixed a bug
>>57128073You'd have to ask them how they're doing it. Maybe they're using actual phones with a program like scrcpy to control it with their PC. It's not like all the discords are secret, you can find links to them in the /vp/ archives.
>>57127840Scolipede is mid
Lapras Ex + greninja + drudd. Does it work?
>>57128110Probably.Lots of decks getting completely carried by Greninja + drudd right now, so why not Lapras too?
Everyone completed their 45 event wins right..?
>>57128114I haven't even gotten the silver.
>>57128114I haven't even started yet.
>>57128114like 2 days agono reason to play now
>>57128110Are your Misty cards gonna net your Lapras at least two energy? If not, then, maybe not.
>>57127586Tail Whip is hardcoded to give always tails, no point delaying the inevitable.
I wonder what the trade economy is going to be like if you can trade multiples for one card. I imagine for two male supports will be worth one female support.
>>57127881Leaf was from Wonder Pick, the rest were natural. I feel short one rainbow now that I see them like this. I rather have Erika full art than a rainbow, heck I would take a second Sabrina or a Giovanni.
>>571278817 but 3 were from wonder picking a god pack. Also I started the game like a month late and have no saved up hourglasses.
>>57127840>welcome to brick cityI hate it that I fell for this meme deck, same with the arbok lock.
>>57128100And still leagues better than Muk and Nidoking.
>>5712788110 (11 if you count a duplicate)f2p, but playing since the start
thoughts on using lumineon instead of greninja to pair with gyarados?
>there are people still pretending no-ex formats are fun>when Drudd would surely be in every deckwew
>>571278812 birds are from WPRainbow Mew is from WPPidgeot is from WPI think I got the FA Mew and 1 of the Crown Mews in the same pack
>>57128146>bricking with mono-Dark that has no attack cost over 2how
>>57128152nvm im stupid
>>57128114I already have the gold event emblems of the first expansion and I don't want to win 45 battles again. Do you guys let me skip this one?
>>571278812 Giovanni2 Surge2 Machamp1 Blastoise1 Celebi1 PidgeotFUCK duplicates
>>57128155No-EX could be fun if it were an event queue one time. As an unofficial format, it's dogshit. Still, it allows for some "more creative" decks to emerge. I think people are really just saying that they're tired of playing (as and against) meta decks 99% of the time.
>>57128157by never drawing the evos, weezing and the centipede thing need each other to do damage.
>>571278817, only 1 was wonder picked. I've never ever seen a rare pack, be it mine or someone else's.
>>57128066?
>>57128114No point in rushing it. It gives me a reason to play a little bit every day and take it nice and easy. I'm gonna do the same for the win streak, since the game is even more imba now i'm not going to tryhard.
>>57128190>I'm gonna do the same for the win streakYou are correct about the 45/50 wins because it lasts 3 weeks. However, the 5 winstreak only lasts ~1 week. You kinda need to "rush" it.
>>57128182The game just plain doesn't like you, honestly.
>>57128161no, you have to get the new onegreen ribbon looks cooler than the purple one
>>57128200I'm well aware of that by now.
>>57128182>7, only 1 was wonder picked.6 is a lot to have pulled on your own, imo. I've never pulled a godpack, and the only godpacks I've seen in WP were orchestrated.
>>57128114Finished it today with an Aero ex / promo Mankey deck after getting tired of trying with better decks. The online meta is cancer right now with the bulk of matches being against water (primarily Drudd / Gyarados) and M2. You can’t counter both at the same time.
>>57128204Maybe, I've never gotten a single 3 star or crown either though.
>got 3 FA (CG) MewsFuck I want to trade them for an FA Leaf or something
>>57128149Better than Nido maybe, but Muk is a out equal... Same attack but Muk is a stage less and can be saved by Koga. Grimer is much worse than Venipede however, but the fact that you need the middle stage to inflict poison balances that. There was really no reason Grimer had to be a three-retrrat mon, they should have done a retrain for him instead of Koffing.
>>57127957thanks, it just werks
>>57128050>look at some discord trannies macro bot FC>setup smart auto clicker to keep friending until you get accepted >get free FA'sIt's that easy
>>57127881I only have 5 too, all legit pulls. mind you I started a week or two late
Maybe I should add normal Aero too.
>>57128149Not better than muk
>>57128242>i only have 5 toobro you have 2 three star immersives
>flip a coin, if heads, LMAO @ ur opponents active pokemonWhat exactly makes Aero EX better to run than regular Aero?
Reply to my post and you take 20 damage
>>57128244
>>57128254Grimer is shit, Muk needs 3 energy. With Scoli line you can go ham no matter if you start first or second.
>>57128273OK, but I'm only replying so that you can't get your Gyarados online before I've even done anything.
>>57128258yes and I'm happy with my pulls but he specifically asked about 2 stars lol
>>57128244my god, this deck must get rolled every single time, especially if you get heads
>>57128275Scoli is a stage 2 dude
>>57128264>more health>can have type advantage>deals damage>no coin flips>RARELY causes immense seetheIt has perks, but the old Aero is still a pretty good late game bailout plan if you’re already running a fossil or two.
>>57128273?
>>57128288it's about the whole Scoli line being better than Grimer/Muk. Try starting game with Grimer on active, impossible to play on a curve and hard to retreat.
>>57128289I think it's funny when someone swaps in their basic after holding onto their evolution and forgets what Aero EX does
>>57128288Grimer being 3 retreat is the primary reason Muk has always sucked ass.Scoli, even though it's a stage 2, can be fully online on your 3rd turn even if you went first. The 1 lower energy cost is huge.
>>57128244>Slabfor what purpose
>>57128273Worth it if Leaf touches me.
>>57128295Yeah, the effect doesn’t come into play very often, but when it does, it’s good. Just not good enough to make up for the consistency in getting the card on the field. The guy in my pic closed his app after a turn 3 Aero stopped him from evolving his Blitzle on turn 4. A potion kept my Mankey from getting knocked out, so the guy was in a bad spot.
>>57128306>pokedex>next card is shit>use slab
>>57128307I don't understand how there's already fan art of this game
>>57127881I got 4 after exactly 100 packs opened
>go first>perfect curve evo line>opp bricksIt's that easy
>>57128326I certainly would hope you'd win in a scenario where you draw perfectly and your opponent draws terribly because if not then when else would you?
>>57128334It sounds like you're just jealous of anon's skill.
>>57128336Well yes I do wish I had that kind of luck.

>>57128450This is true.
>>57128436This. I’ve already been cursed with 2 of the hideous Aero full art (as well as blessed with 2 for the rainbow border…). Hard to justify the hourglasses when I’d just be chasing a second copy of the Mew or Serperior.

>>57128488What the FUCK am I looking at?
>>57128498might be based

>>57128450>DkayedGay.>>57128485>>57128377
>>57128494Celebi beats it
>>57128498Retardation. If you're going to be running that many pokemon, mixing so many lines instead of basics is a way to turn it into useless inconsistency.
>>57128488then it's going to have some inaccuracies as limitless also hosts alternate rule tournaments like no-ex, no meta, or highlander like what >>57128498 posted.
>>57128494It’s rough out here. There isn’t a single deck that cleans up Gyara / M2 that doesn’t get mopped up by the other, and as neat as it is to see Golem doing well, you know Drudd is putting in a lot of work.
I'm just here to give shout outs and blowies to the Meltan deck guy. Decided to build something similar and I've won like 14/17 of my last Two losses because they put my pokeballs and all meltans at the bottom of my deck and the one loss against a celebi nerd - but the amount of decks you can clock is absurd. Some of it comes down to luck, but holy shit deck shits on the meta so often
>>57128377those have been there since mythical island was added, retard
This is how they power creepThe wall (that also does 20 damage)The big boss monster (that has enough HP to survive both the current meta decks as well as dealing a fuck load of damge)To fight back against this, they put out stage 2 searchers in the next expac
>>57128527Pokemon Breeder draws near
>>57128432How is this supposed to work? I got in but it didn't show up in wonder picks. First time I've tried to do it.
>>57128535You hope oyu have a free slot so he shows up in your wonder picks before the bot deletes you
>>57128516>Celebi
>>57128523I'm here babyliterally in a game running it right now about to rape this gyarados abuser
>>57128498A standard tiered, tournament tested deck. Everyone knows the uhhhhhh Salazzletufflareon Moltres Blaine deck. Honestly you just can't escape it in online matches. Just like other tiered meta threats such as Nidoqueen.
how do I get better friends with EXes in their wonder picks more often?
>>57128535So a bot spams new accounts then when it gets a god pack it posts it's friend code.You need 0 friends on your account and you add the bot friend code riiiiight as one of your wonder picks is about to expire.Then you get one of the newly friended bots recently pulled packs and pray that it was the god pack.
>>57128539>the only positive match-ups are against Pika EX and Weezing-ScoliGrim
>>57128541>abandoned the pure metal deck for druddits over...
How mad would you be?
just kidding he rolled a 3 heads misty first turn with 2 gyarados in his hand of course>>57128555I always ran druddgod in it
>>57128552It has a decent Celebi matchup at least, and I see that deck everywhere.
>>57128511>better snivy>free moltres ex, cool because I have only one>rest is garbage
>>57128539Being losing to Starmie + Articuno at this point is kind of pathetic. Is it just bricking on Serperior? That would seem like a good matchup.
>>57128562>I always ran druddgod in itOh you're not the usual melmetal anon i remember seeing, he had a different name too
>>57128563>Celebi has a good match-up against CelebiWell, you're right. Technically, it's 50-50.
>>57128558I fucking hate that ugly piece of shit, so very.
>>5712856749.5% isn't that significant with 1% margin of error. It's still 50/50.
>>57128558I would SNEETHE if I had to see that fucker in even 1 out of 10 games.
>>57128558Metalchads need something, wouldn't be mad at all
>>57128583But even then, you as Celebi should be able to camp out either of the two, oneshot one after the other once you get set up.
>>57128432Got the Mew, pretty satisfied. Was hoping to avoid the aero landmines.
>>57128440I'm aware, anon.
I feel like people underrate how good it is to shove a shit ton of basics into your deck
>>57128564None of that is "new" information, it was datamined when Mythical Island released. But the game client openly shows it to players as of today.
>>57128609the empty slots were there since mythical island released retard, nothing was "datamined"
>>57128558That ability is insane.
Is bench hate anything special in the real gameLike did they powercreep so hard it's easy to pick things off from the bench without much effort like Volcarona
>>57128619It wasn't when I played it, especially since the real game has 6 prize cards and 5 bench slots anyway. No idea about today.
>>57128541The amount of times I take out a cocky celebi with a Giovanni has been.. *chefs kiss* I can't get enough just added two more DUBS. Thank you king
>>57128585idk I'd be kind of mad if metal was stuck with ugly ass pokemon like melmetal and gholdengo instead of cool shit like scizor, steelix, aggron, or corviknight. I want metal to be usable too but not if it's just gonna be uggos
Just witnessed some chink try to win with two Gyarados EX's, a Chatot, two Misty's, and a shitton of fossils. It didn't work at all, Golem and Marshadow are still goated. Never thank Mistyniggers, even when they lose.
These decks sure are ranked close for how polar opposite my experience with each have been.
im kinda glad pocket exists, youtube fags legit ruined casually collecting and playing the real game around 2021 for me. Everytime i do grocery shopping the pokemon card section has just been completely fucking empty.
>>57128619Look at this card
>>57128640Whats wrong with melmetal...he's cool...
>>57128643Chatot requires an energy and to be in the active spot. Its a funny card but it just kinda gives your opponent a free prize. Id gladly take my opponent shuffling for a better hand as i kill the chatot for a quick point.
>>57128651I'm gonna go out on a limb and say 130 damage in that game is like 50 damage in this game.
>>57128652meh just not a fan, don't take it personally. if you like him then I'm happy for you
>>57128607It's because they're too brainlet to understand more than one strategy per deck. See >>57128643A deck has 20 cards and its reasonable that any of your cards may be drawn at any time, so it's better to plan a strong deck around multiple possibilities and adapt accordingly. Sometimes there's bad matchups and sometimes RNG just says fuck you, but the best decks work around that.
>>57128660You're right about that but some of the best decks do exactly that with only a few cards because those cards are so good they can handle multiple possibilities.
>>57128619the best decks right now has ways to board wipe turn 2/3
>>57128651>read little text on topOh so you mean the bench gets even more secure>read the attackNevermind kek
>>57128655Yeah, the instant I saw Chatot and Magikarp being played at roundstart, I knew what was up and just played out all my cards as fast as possible to mitigate Chatot draws and boost my own mons. It seems super brainlet to run, honestly. Especially because he failed both Mistys lol
>>57128498highlander
>>57128655The idea is that you're going to be drawing through your deck extremely fast so the energy cost is worth it since you'll be seeing both your Mistys quickly and evolving more quickly too.At least that's how it works in theory. In practice it's probably not better.
>>57128672Damn why does Kyurem hate Colress that much.
>>57128671A few of the cards you speak of mainly just have good nuke buttons and the sooner you can take them our or topple their supports, the faster they are crippled and made useless. Alternatively, just nuke them faster. :^)
you should get 10 pack points per pack
>>57128684*out
>>57128672Does the ability mean it only needs 1 energy or that its energy is all colorless?
>>57128644Celebi might feel oppresive if you're playing memedecks that cannot oneshot it, because of Erika. Against the top 3 decks(Gyara, M2, Pika with Raichu-Buzz), it's a non-issue.I'll assume Koga is that high because it's the best counter against Mewtwo, which is by far the most popular deck in tournaments.
So, wonder picks are a scamhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/0a_Tj14ZeNY
>>57128689What exactly tips the Celebi-Gyarados matchup so much? Just reliance on Serperior? You'd think both are somewhat equal since their endgame is sitting on the bench and nuking their EX last.
>>57128685The 1250 cards should only cost 1000 or less too. 1250 / 5 = 250 pack openings. I'm out of freebies and I only have 300 pack points for the Mythical Island. Even at 600 points, 1250 is still so far away...
>>57128697Is he using 5 different accounts or did he somehow wonder pick it 5 times with the same account via having it open in multiple windows?
Charizard feels waaaaay more consistent than M2 somehow. Going 2nd and opening Moltres is broken as fuck.
>>57128697this has been deboonked, its just defaulting to the raticate since the servers know that's what he got in the first pick
>>57128714Until you play 5 matches in a row where Charmander or Charmeleon or Charizard are stuck on the bottom of the deck.
>>57128697I don't speak taco
>>57128697what am i looking at here
>>57128687I believe it sets the attack to 1 colorless
>>57128697dios mio
I have never once used the 1 mew ex tech I've put in any deck, what a fucking meme card.
>>57128720Of course it can brick but it still feels better than M2, I draw Charmeleon/Charizard more often than Kirlia/Gardevoir
>>57128672I'm guessing Colress cards were very popular supporters back when this was a thing.
>>571278819 total, 2 are dupes. None wonder picked
>>57128745every time it looks like should be powering it up based on how the game is going, it feels so bad wasting 3 fucking turns attaching energy to it
May I ask for a Gyarados decklist? I haven't really paid attention to it but I realized I have two EXs and I just pulled a full art Vaporeon from WP, so I'd like to see if I can build it.
>>57128705Gyarados is more consistent (2 cards vs 4, flat damage vs needs 4 heads).
>>571287552-2 karp/gyara2-2-2 froakie/frogadier/greninja2 druddigon2 misty2 oak2 pokeball1 sabrina1 leafrun fire energy because you're not a pussy
>>57128456Ok which one of you is this? Here at DENA (TM) we do not support racism or bigotry of any kind. We will be mailing this player notice of his imminent termination from the platform. He will also be banned from all DENA and TPC products going forward. We hope all you non-bigots have a wonderful Christmas, hopefully with lots of Pokegold stuffed in your stocking.
>>57128456Lmao it like the eevee callin you a nigger hahahaha hehe
>>57128767based
>>57128745Works pretty well in decks that find themselves with excess energy. I like it in my Arcanine/Moltres deck. Gives it an answer to M2 / Zard, assuming you outpace them with the initial attack from Arcanine or Moltres.
>>57128713He's using one singe account with 5 instances open and the server isn't let him change which card he got, because of course it wouldn't. It's not eve new youtube content, an English speaker showed off the same thing like a month ago.
>>57128772
>>57127455>Starmie at BRetard
>>57127938His name is liZARDon though
Honestly, I think it's time for Pika to make a roaring comeback. Not sure if it ever really left, but it has a good matchup against Gary and does well against M2 if you can find both Pika ex. Dedenne is super solid. Zebra is quite good against all these faggots drudiggon or whatever it's called (I'll never learn this Pokemons name. Ive given up)
>>57128755>Gyara/Druddigon stallhttps://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/675c4e5295f729096d724a39/player/erikitoh/decklist>Gyara waterhttps://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/673b2e71c4180e08eacfb221/player/spyroza/decklistYou can drop the Starmies for Articunos and more trainers if you want
>>57128776what does the rest of that deck look like? I've thought about trying Mew in my Arcanine deck but I've gotten so much use out of Volcarona as a sniper that I'm hesitant to mess around with it
>>57128787its actually lizaadon, so i will now proceed to call him "zaado".
I’m at 30 wins and I haven’t seen a Drudd yet
im fucking shocked this game has such a bad name filter. Ive seen people with the funniest names
>>57128800Not sure what everyone else is running, but it’s about what you’d expect.>2 Growlithe / 2 Arcanine ex>2 Moltres ex>1 Mew ex>2 Professor’s Research>2 Pokeball>1 or 2 Potion>1 or 2 Leaf>1 or 2 X Speed>1 or 2 Sabrina>1 or 2 Gio>0 or 1 Blue>0 or 1 Red CardRun with whatever feels good to you. Personally, I think Leaf is really good in the deck, and I lean towards running 2 copies. Gio is another solid card for the deck, letting Arcanine get clean knockouts on Starmie ex, Mew ex, and Zapdos ex + letting Moltres 2-shot Mewtwo ex. Blue is helpful in a few niche scenarios, but I think the current meta doesn’t require the card.
>>57128705>Grass doesn't have slab for consistent stage 2>Celebi at 4 energy without Serperior is unlikely to retaliate kill Gyarados>Grass doesn't want to frontline Serperior or Celebi against Gyarados, but if you frontline one Snivy, you're vulnerable to Sabrina and you really don't want to lose eitherI think a 1-of Dhelmise is necessary for Celebi decks at this point to bait Gyarados, but it won't do much if you fail the coin toss.
>>57128839It wouldn't let me call my deck "Sharticuno"I was sorta impressed
>>57128651>330hpwhy is this allowed?
Hmmm, Shiinotic + Celebi + Serperior.
>>57128797If you don't pull gyarados you brick because druddigon is unlikely to attack even with fire energy on and greninja isn't carrying shit as a point attacker. It's funny to me they added one of the best possible meatshields with mew but everyone is distracted by this shitty dragon because the average 70 iq player will attack it before they can switch or kill so the ability actually does something.
>>57128859I can't fucking stand the physical TCG.
>3rd Celebi exI just want a 2nd Aero
>>57128867i use the shitty dragon because mew is an ex and they give the dragon away for free.
>>57128859The physical TCG has higher damage numbers and x2 weaknesses, so 330 isn't nearly as high as it looks.
>>5712885930 years of powercreep is a hell of a thing. If they refused to patch cards in pocket, which would be retarded for an online game, this is the type of shit you can expect to end up in the game soon.
>no longer thanking metafags during the event
>>57128882fair and f2p pilled. The game gave me a full art and crown mew and still won't give me the second gyarados.
>>57128893pidge ex is already nearing 200 hp
>>57128450>tournaments>people actually play this game like it isn't just as random as throwing dice on cardboard behind a chinese restaurant

>>57128907170 HP is pretty crazy for something like a pidgeot, but I guess that's Stage 2 EX privilege.

>>57128940https://pocketdecks.top/click it
>>57128941>ex gyra fagno thanks
>>57128941disgusting
>>57128940It's because the 2 people playing that deck have gotten fairly lucky.
>>57128941"Blue" is cuter than Leaf.
>>57128929I can conceptualize the issue.
>>57128941Why not put the energy on drudd on that last turn so you can immediately switch to gyara and start killing? Yeah you'd get smacked by the marshadow so im guessing you were planning to sabrina next turn, but so what? The game would be over for your opponent regardles, they wouldn't be able to do anything about a 60 hp gyarados.
Does a Starmine Ex and Lumineon deck have potential? Trying to play something unique and had decent success with it.
>>57128941>>57128965Also on that note waiting next turn to sabrina could be counterplayed by him dropping something on the bench also.
>>57127455>Dragonite >E tier Yes please continue to keep it out of the limelight metafags

>>57129010the real power with koga is fully healing, yes, but the main recipient of this should be the classic weezing, because you can play it and have it immediately back to full power next turn. I doubt we'll ever see even nu weezing get plays because it needs 2 energy to attack
>>57129010muk needing 3 energy before it can being doing anything is what makes it shit
>>57129010Weezing loves it.Muk getting fully healed uses up all energy on him, he's not so sure,
>>571289852 energy attack for venoshockcan start and ramp up with 1 energy2 retreat cost (leaf trainer)140 healthonly downfall is that its a stage 2 pokemon so you have a chance of bricking
>>57128987Ok then both Dragonite and Florges are E tier, are you happy
>>57128980it gets swept by weezing/arbok which is a C tier deck. maybe B tier on a good draw
>>57129010It's the ability to heal Weezing, put Koffing on the bench, then immediately have Weezing attacking again new turn (or just damage sponging while his power chips away at the target). Now, if they were print a Muk with a cheap attack and good ability, THEN he'd be used with Koga.
>>571290103 energy attack is worse, and the basic grimer having a retreat of 3 means its a pure brick if you hard open it and have to start it, if you koga muk you have to rebuild the energy too, lots of downsides and not enough positives unfortunately
>>57128985Grimer needs 3 energy to retreat so you are dead in the water if your opening hand doesn't have Koffing.Venipede retreats for 1 and a turn 3 (or 4) Whirlipede is almost as good as a turn 3 (or 4) Weezing.
>play dragonite v dragonite>he's running druddigon while I have mew>I win because my mew tanked the draco meteor while his druddigon couldn'tI wish it didn't have to be like this but until mew gets changed this is the meta you have to deal with.
I just pooped my pants
>>57129040A Muk with this attack, for example, would absolutely see play, just because it could damage sponge while forcing your opponent to waste extra energy attachments to do anything.
Honestly on the subject of Old Weez vs Nu Weez, Old Weez having his free brap is practically what the deck is built around. Nu Weez having no way to poison solidified the fact that he is worse.
>>57129061>shitposting
>>57129066Muk is fine. This asshole is the problem.
>>57129072Nu Weezing isn't even bad. The old one is just extremely overpowered.
While I was using a Celebi deck I was facing a ton of mega/tryhard decks but since I switched to my Dragonite deck I seem to be getting more off-meta stuff. Does the game have weird matchmaking where it matches you with users in that sorta way or something?
>>57129082People are saying it's some meme " weight " thing
Misty is fair if Celebi is fair
>>57129082no, I get tryhard decks with anything I use
>>57129072New Weezing could see play if it weren't for the fact that every viable dark deck at the moment relies on poison. When that stops happening you might start seeing it.
Yeah I don't buy the whole "deck weight" meme, I switch my deck constantly when I play and I have one deck I use that deliberately has garbage cards because its my pet deck, and it just gets shit on by meta decks 99% of the time.
I only give public showcase likes to those still in single digits
>>57128989Yeah sure here's a Gyarados player conceding to Dragonite
>>57129116How useful that Tauros is in your deck?
>>57129122He's just a wall I usually don't put energy into him unless I brick
FINALLY ALL MY CHRISTMASES HAVE COME AT ONCE (AND SO HAVE I)This was about 8 hours ago but haven't opened anything since - add me if you want a chance0278943516377606
Mew is better than tauros in almost everyway except for the mirror
>>57129116unless you can make pikachuds and mewtroons consistently consneed, your deck is nothing
>>57129135Mew is pretty much better than anything else you can put in your deck that isn't your win condition, its a stupid card.
>>57129134if you haven't opened anything since, you can turn off the share packs option and any new packs you open won't replace this one for pick chances
>>57129135I dunno the 2 points it would give upon defeat turns me off from it.
whats a good vaporeon starmie deck
>>57129150gyarados, starmie is your early game wincon, gyarados your late game
>>57129144you could put in the explorer card to stop it from being a free 2 prize
>>57129137Dragonite doesn't go running behind the skirts of his trainer when things go bad unlike your deck. Just Koga the out bro
>>57129165>that fa sabrina and leaffuark i'm jeal
>>57129154im not using the soi face dragon
>>57128607Elaborate and post deck list.
>>57129144>>57129164Could try it as a one of, thanks for the suggestion.
>>57129165>Dragonite doesn't go running behind the skirts of his trainerdragonite literally hides behind weezing and druddigon all game lol.
>>57129164Yes but relying on explorer to bail you out is risky. There's no searchers for it so there's a good chance it's at the bottom of your deck.
>>57129171He's firing his lazar you zoomer
>>57129175He's only binding his time before it's time to strike
>>57129176tauros is a 2 energy retreat, mew is a 1 energy retreat. Even if you only pull x-speed, that's usually good enough. If you really need to you could add even more support with leaf, but anything more than 2 explorers+2 xspeeds is overkill in my opinion.
>>57129182he'll probably get sabrina'd before he hits puberty
What will Lucario EX look like?
>>57129187Bro i dont have mew ex gimme a break
>>57129189I don't know but I hope he can save fighting types. Despite what one tournaments results have shown, it's still a pretty shitty type to build decks around. EX aero got outplaced by fucking golem
>>57129189Long eyelashes and a shapely butt
>>57128748Yeah I got to say I disagree. M2 can hack it without garde. Charizard has to stall AND evolve.
>>57129192>he was coping the whole timelisten man, I don't like it any better than you do, complain to Dena for making such an obnoxiously strong card
>>57129192Literally just add a bot and get it.I wonder of they gonna patch it.
>>57128966I think lumineon is being underrated right now but being stage 1 hurts it because you want to be sniping before they come online. Poke flute is interesting with it. I think it does better with Greninja as well because then you're hitting 70 to the bench
>>57129205what the fuck are you talking about, explain
>>57129205>add a botI don't have time to bot shit myself and I'm not going lurking in some discord for handouts.
>>57128985Like other people have pointed out it's mostly the fact that grimer is mediocre. When we get a better grimer , Muk might rise
>>57129189Fighting180 HP3 Energy: Bone Rush"For every basic Fighting mon in play this attack does 30 damage to one of your Opponen't Pokemon"6 Energy: Aura Blast"Deals 170 damage."Maylene card that adds 2 energy to a basic Fighting Pokemon in the same expansion btw
>>57129209>open your wonderpick menu and look at timers>wait until one runs out of time>go to friends menu>kick everyone>add an account with godpack>wait until they accept you>go back to wonderpick>the godpack from friend is thereI've been doing this for few days now, and it's just stupid.
>>57129195
>>57128614It doesn't discriminate type. This would be the Robin Hood of this game.
>>57129189
>>57129221Guy punching=my handGuy gettin punched=my dick
>>57129182that's the most unrealistic reputation for Draco
>>57129227Oh id cockscrew crash her all right
I think I'm coming around on Aerodactyl it's only 10 damage less than pika while having 30 more HP of course there's the issue where you can never draw it but I don't think Aero should be the main beatstick of any deck rather a backup plan depending on the matchup.
>>57128655Playing YGO is retroactively a good game to teach you the difference between a good card and pleb trap. Anyone remember this 'bad boy?
>>57129227>3 attacksDid we got robbed in pocket? Even EX poks have 1 attack.
>>57129239Eh i had him in my marowak sandslash deck and in near 80 games hes never been useful in my experience
>>57129239It's a fossil so it won't interfere with your pokeball searches or starting hand. You can build a deck with one or maybe two Pokemon lines as the main part of the deck and Aerodactyl can act as a backup option
>>57129142Done, Leaf is now safe for all
>>57129189Steel typeUses Fighting energy150 HP Basic2 Fighting: Vacuum Wave - 50 damage2 Fighting + 2 Colorless: Aura Sphere - 150 damageAdjust numbers slightly for powercreep
>>57129227Yeah. Kinda based. Change Missle jab's effect to draw one card and it's godlike.
>>57129239>I don't think Aero should be the main beatstick of any deck rather a backup plan depending on the matchup.imo the problem is there aren't really any great fighting types to pair him with as a lead. maybe it would see more use as a colorless card, or paired with a future fighting type
>>57129239Aerodactyl looks much less favorable if you compare it to Starmie.
>>57129246>doesn't trade a random card with the opponents deckcringe
>>57129239It's not the worst in the world and you can win pretty consistently even with very subpar decks if you're not a retard because there are a ton of absolute idiots playing this game. probably literal 12 year olds so not their fault
>>57129239I think it would be a cool card if it's ability of preventing evolutions worked better. It's just too easy to circumvent it currently. Maybe if it prevented all evolutions, but only if it's the active pokemon. That'd probably be too much though.
>>57129264It's not Christmas yet.
>>57129271>2/5 chance for pidgshit
>>57129208Articuno Ex, Lumineon, and a Greninja with flutes and misty feel like it should work in theory but I'm too tired to give it some testing.
>>57129277Ex Pigeon deck winning a tournament within the next 2 weekstrvst
>>57129258That's the issue with fighting as a whole. It has a whole slew of great backup attackers, but its frontline options are all either slow as fuck or aren't oppressive enough to carry the deck.Fighting is like one good card away from flipping from "having to resort to Golem" to one of the most frustrating types to fight against.
>>57129283It absolutely could, I just don't like pidgeot. dumb looking bird in a wig
>>57129277I could actually use a Pidgeot. I only have 1.
Oh hey. They added the shop alert back.
>>57129293That must be what that 5MB patch was forApologems where
>>57129296>download additional data for new miniset>lose shop alert dot>need to download 5mb more to get it backI miss when games needed to be able to fit on a cartridge or a small disk and they actually needed to optimize shit in order to ship it.
>>57129283I could see it happening but it probably won't. I just went against that Drudd+Golem deck with a Victrebel Pidgeot deck, let him kill my Chatot with Golem, smacked it with Pidgeot twice, then fluted out the Geodude to one shot with Victrebel and tanked a Hitmonlee kick to my Pidgeot with 10 hp remaining before switching it back in to KO.
I'm too paranoid to add bots but if you do consider not doing it on your main account. It probably will never happen but if you care about your account it's better to be safe. I don't want any of you getting banned even if the chance is close to non-existent.
>>57128966>>57129208I posted one theory earlier.>>57128022I'm actually VERY keen on the new Vaporeon Synergy because its zero retreat cost gets it in and out so you can recycle the energy for your heavy hitters of choice.It's just really hard to [fish] for consistency because the only independent EX option you have is Lapras.
what if attacking didn't immediately end your turn and you could still play out the turn like normal until you manually end itannoying sabrina shenanigans to force out the switch?
>>57129308>add friend>get banned for itThat's never going to happen and you're retarded for even entertaining the possibility.
>>57129308If that happens then I had fun while it lasted but I am now free of this game. Also it's not my fault, I had no idea that they were bots and I just wanted to make friends with people who like pokemon :(
>>57129229True. He would boardwipe the Caterpie as well
Tournaments are open deck lists, so people will easily play around Pidgeot EX by not playing a full bench. Not even a pokeflute can fix it.
>>57129311assuming you could still retreat you'd probably see a lot of attacking into retreats to hide behind a wall
>>57129310The issue>>57129278There's not enough room for lumineon, Greninja, and anything else.>>57128022So like what's your full list?2 Vaporeon, 2 Lapras, 2 lumi?
>>57129311Too broken. The game is balanced around revenge killing the attacker. If you could switch your attacker after it attacks it would turn into a stallfest.
>>57129308There are super easy to find play store macro-driven autoclickers you can set to hit the 'add friend' button twice a second, while also autostopping the moment they see the button turn grey on a successful request.Today marked my start of double digit godpack pulls since starting last week, while on the other hand if I'm banned, I'm free forever. Win / Win I say
>>57129310>I posted one theory earlier.https://arch.b4k.co/vp/thread/57102169/#q57103770
>>57129326qrd on this?
>>57129326>double digit godpack pullsAre you paypigging? How is it even possible to have double digit amounts of WP hourglass stamina? That's at least 440 hourglasses. Like, you're probably nearly dry by now. I know I'm almost dry.
>>57129319Not like you can't see the Pidgey from a mile away either lmao
I already reported the bot discord to Nintendo, not because they're abusing the game, but because I hate discordtrannies.
>>57129326Using an auto clicker is probably legitimately against the ToS and would give them a reason to ban you unlike just friending someone who posted online that they got a good pack.
>>57129338>larp>or wasting timeIt's not even entirely bots, retard. There are people manually rerolling, there are people running bots, there are people who happen to roll godpacks, and there are reposts from Twitter or Reddit (these are almost entirely real people who just got godpacks)
Have you F2Pbros started using your level up gold yet
>>57129330Not gonna spoonfeed, but here's a UI clue>>57129335FtP, but yeah: spending the hourglasses as they come. Why wouldn't you? It's 5x the value proposition as compared to regular wonder picks, plus has 2* in the pool guaranteed every time. There's never going to be a better use for them.
>>57129322Yes. Regular ass Lapras is underwhelming, but the strength of the trinity is that your basic mon plan is solid. Lapras is the meat shield since you never really want Vaporeon in the active slot compared to the other two.This is totally doable with EX Starmie, who also has a zero retreat cost by the way. I just, simply don't have one. [YG2GY kek]
>>57129347yes I have no impulse control
Chikorita when?
>>57129343Not him, butI've never been banned for botting (i.e. setting up a macro) in a gacha game. I usually use macros to automate the shit chore parts of games that I don't want to do. Sending a friend request is such a retarded thing to want to ban someone for, even if they could tell that you're botting the friend request.You guys are way too paranoid about this shit. Besides, if you get banned, you are free from this gacha. There are no downsides unless you paypigged, but if you paypigged you should just have all the cards anyway.
>>57129328What can I say? It was probably an obvious DeNA vision all along.
quick someone post erika
>>57129352
>>57129348>Why wouldn't you?I'm not saying you shouldn't, I'm just wondering how you have double digit godpack WPs after starting a week ago. If that's true, you're probably just about out of WP hourglasses. Which is fine, I'm just asking logistically.
>>57129338Narc
How do i get more hourglass?
>>57129354>It was probably an obvious DeNA vision all along.If you had The Sight, you'd see that you should be playing Starmie instead of Lapras.
>>57129349Idk if it is doable with starmie desu because then you are horrible tight on slots. I would rather do Lapras ex even.Vaporeon in the active isint great but it's also not terrible, it all depends on what's on your opponent's bench, if there's nothing to snipe then the game plan needs to shift
>>57127455how do we save the celebixisters?
>>57129355
>>57129315>violate tos>get banned for itI hope you're right and that I'm the retard.
Bug Aggro got such a boost this set. Mew and Celebi are both fantastic.
>>57129364buy them in the store with your tickets>>57129369by using mew or something else to stall while you setup serperior and celebi. statistically the game is over once celebi has 6+ effective grass energy, you can almost play it like a charizard deck in that way.
>>57129364
>>57129370y my pp hard
>>57129328>Those comments50 can two shot Drudjggon without triggering Rough Skin; one shot Exeggcute, Vulpix, Mankey, Staryu, Porygon, and Fossils. If Giovanni worked on it, it would actually be Joever.
>>57129371If you're not using an auto clicker, and are only friending bots rather than running them yourself, then you haven't broken these rules.
>>57129371>not allowed to mod the app/service>not allowed to install on multiple devices "excessively">not allowed to do anything illegalaside from running multiple instances, which is a retarded clause that wouldn't hold up in any court, there's nothing wrong with a bot that friends people because it doesn't "modify" anything.
>>57129364Battle trainers for money duh
>>57129371>(8) "to modify the application for the Service."Macros are not modifying the app, they are automating button presses>(11) "Excessively installing the application for the Service on numerous devices."Anon was proposing using a macro to friend request people. This is inapplicable to the situation. However, in the situation where people are multiboxing accounts to farm reroll godpacks, how are you gonna get banned? Those are throwaway accounts anyway. Banning an account whose sole purpose was to be godpack reroll fodder is a retarded waste of time and resources. And who is this even going to hit? Am I going to get banned because I use an emulator for my account while on PC, and then I also play on my phone when I'm away from my PC using the same account?>(12) "Development of an unlawful program, tool, or app, regardless of naming, whose goal it is to use the Service unlawfully."Sure. This seems like sue bait though, and no one using a macro is developing a program. Of course, they're going to terminate your account at any time and for any reason, but you're being outrageously paranoid. They're not going to ban people for friend requests.
>>57129383Was she breastfeeding them
>>571293794chan is not very good at being able to evaluate cards prior to their use in tournament-winning decks.
>>57129366Seeing the card is no good if I don't have it, as I said earlier.>>57129367Yeah, the tight slots is a drawback, but on the other hand you don't need Sabrina, X Speed, Leaf, and possibly not even Gio. (Don't (Me) on that last one though.) You definitely want a Flute which can be a free point in the right circumstance. It's possible that Blue works better for a hit and run strategy since Gio doesn't boost Lumineon.
>>57129386The really funny thing is that this is actually symbiotic for the game, at least in the initial launch window. Dudes get to report a bajillion more daily fresh installs / users; the setup and exploitation is autistically involved enough to really stall out mass adoption too.I can send a discord link to anyone, but asking them to set up if / thens with a colorpicker on their phone's about fifty steps too far, far less actually getting scriptkiddie multiboxing set up, even with the premade botting configs out there
>>57129379>one shot porygon, staryu, mankey, fossilswhat kind of a terrible cope is this? It isn't killing anything that wasn't dying to light breeze anyway, and at 80hp, it's pretty much guaranteed to die in 1-2 hits.

>>57129247An old card, I don't think current TCG does 3 attacks, could be wrong though.
>>57129392I actually think Lapras ex might work decently here, it attacks pretty good into druddigon as well.Why not two flutes?
>>5712940Lapras only heals before it takes damage though, right?
>>57129392Oh also>you don't need SabrinaYou absolutely do, there can be times when the wrong thing is on the bench or vice versa. Just because we are sniping the bench doesn't mean we can stop caring about the active especially if they have something nasty there that's going to threaten ohko
>>57129165It's kind of pathetic that you take screenshots when you win. Makes me think you mustn't win very often.
>>57129402Yeah but by the time you attack a second time you've still only taken 20. Seems decent to me seeing as it doubles as your tank
>>57129395>what kind of a terrible cope is this? It isn't killing anything that wasn't dying to light breeze anywayYou can potentially Misty the Lumineon to hit things that usually evolve in the back. Magikarp comes to mind, in addition to the things he named. Electabuzz and the newly adopted Hitmonlee are already things pretty much for this reason. A potential Misty deck has a line of> Stamie EX for 90 (Misty) -> Vaporeon -> Lumineon 50 damage killing blow or snipe of unevolved PokemonThis only costs 2 energy because Starmie EX and Lumineon both retreat for free. I haven't actually played this, so it might suck, but I saw this a while ago and it seems decent. Like, Starmie EX early game is busted but it doesn't do a good job finishing a lot of things off.
>>57129395Nigga what part of sniping don't you understand? Those are all things that Zebstrika can't kill right away.
>>57129400I don't trust the probability of the opponent letting you do that twice. Plus you won't even need to if you slay an EX anyway.
>>57129404I beg the differ.
>>57129420>beg the differ
>>57129420What do you beg from the differ thoPokegold?
>>57129403Yeah, you're right. If you have a good Vaporeon energy lineup, Starmie and Lumineon on deck there's a lot of midgame checkmate scenarios you can pull off.
>>57129420My man, it's "beg to differ"
>>57129420>I beg the differ.
>>57127455nu weezing better at stalling and buying time. the problem is requiring 2 energy isn't as practical with Koga and everything else that's dark requires so much more energy. Also Arbok really needs the bonus damage from poison. Without that bonus damage he struggles to KO Any revelant threats while also being 1hit by most threats.

>>57129436Would the loch ness monster run a celebi deck
>>57129366I argue that regular Lapras is smart with a good pivot strategy. 20 now and 90 later is damn good for a basic wall mon in the Vaporeon engine.Extra points for DeNA capturing its vidya jack-of-all-trades role too.
