Give me your most fun deck ideas, I'm looking for some janky stuff to build

>>58345953
I got embarassed earlier by someone running Toxicroak, Hypno and Darkrai ex
Maybe that with nihilego instead of darkrai

I'm about to reach 999 accumulated points again. I assume that's still the limit, right?
If so, is it worth it and spend 100 points on the new limited-time collection? My question is whether those accumulated points will be carried over into the next replay or will they reset to 0 once the month is over? Does anyone know?

>>58346010

They did my boy so fucking dirty, but a few turns in you get multiple 120s pretty consistently

If only Grass had a viable way to ramp...

>>58346013
I mean the points for opening envelopes and unlocking cards

>>58346023
That was never the limit.

>>58346010
999? Are you talking about pack points? Max is 2500 per pack

>>58346029
Seriously? Last time I got stuck at 999 and it wouldn't go any higher. Wait, I'm talking about the hourglasses for opening ten packs at once, not the points. And I meant the points from the last limited-time collection. I don't know if all those points from that collection will disappear once the month is up.
Trying to get more than 1200 in less than a month sounds impossible.

>>58346022
Takes -20, only has 1 retreat, i think he makes a great tank, obviously hes not going to solo an opponent but shuckle does what he was designed to do

just pulled darkrai...please tell me i only need 1 of him...i'm 200 points away from being able to purchase the other EX i need which i can't remember it's name...i already have 2 greninjas

Dark Arceus is the fastest, least stressful path to master ball. Got two 10+ win streaks and basically blitzed there in about 2 to 3 days.

>two komalas??
For oricorio because you'll run into anti-suicine decks all day. Getting one online (if you don't draw arceus) is putting out stupid early damage for only giving up one point.

>two reds?
Mandatory. You need to hit the 140+ breakpoint with arceus. Can hit 170 with darkrai + red for caped mons.

>but..but...it bricks with too many babies
All decks brick. concede and move on. you have to trust the process with this deck and learn how to pilot your win conditions.


The exodia draw is two babies, darkrai and arceus. two babies in case they repel/sabrina. You dont care about suicine bench power, arceus gets online too quickly.

>>58346542
Huh I've never seen this deck before and then just now I fought someone with it

made the biggest misplay of my life and ate complete shit against it but still

>>58346542
i ran this deck but replaced the pokeballs for magby copies and the leaf for a snorlax ex

>>58346520
Oricorio/Sylvaly was pretty comfy and killed most Arceus decks outright if they didn't have anti-bird measures online by turn 2-3

How's your collection Anon?

>>58346857
Unless you too are hunting FA Oak or Crown Candy there is no reason to open this pack.

Unfortunately Im on that grind for Oak so Im stuck opening this pack but Im not happy about it.

>>58346857
I'm 1 pack away from WSS 1250 pack points so I'll be going for the ex packs after this
Technically the only things I wanted that were realistically possible were the FA Greninja and Gardevoir, and I already have 3/4 from WP

>>58346866
>It's like they don't care about the PvE aspect of the game at all.
They don't. PVE is designed to waste your time. The AI will always be dumb because it's not worth it for them to devote time and resources to make it not dumb. They're just going to stick with the current methods of preset starting hands for the CPU and intentionally bad rng for the players.

Since they are going to get rid of trade tokens and I haven't opened any packs released before celestial guardians, I'm planning to complete those collections trading with alts. Any anons running multiple alts? Is running 4 instances in bluestacks the best method? Also at which point of progression would be the most efficient to clear the account data and restart?

this raichu ex any good?

>>58346974
If the stars align and you get a Pichu, Zeraora, and Pikachu on your first turn, evolving into Raichu ex on turn 3, then using an Elemental Switch/Dawn to move Zeraora's energy to Raichu, sure. Outside of that unicorn of two turns, it's pretty mid, as even though the current threats are weak to electric, they can reliably start attacking sooner.

>>58346986
Of course, if all those points happen then it's also a sign dread Cthulhu is awakening from his slumber, so there's that.

>>58346974
not in the slightest. arceus ex just does it better since it's a basic and has no recoil.
even in a deck that was already running alola raichu ex i would still rather have arceus.

>>58346974
It's very clearly meant to be a "fuck suicune" card. it oneshots it while keeping enough HP left to tank a darkrai or greninja turn

>>58347012
alolachu already one shots it and doesn't recoil itself afterwards
meme card

>>58347018
Yeah I'm gonna keep rocking the alolan. This new one is worse against basically every deck except for maybe crobat EX

/tcgp/ is always wrong, therefore Raichu ex will be meta

>>58346974
It's basically Arcanine with a more favorable type.

anyone got a good deck list for this event?

Yea but that's only because the only thing I want that's not in this pack is is Full art Lucario and Melmetal. I can just trade for that.

>>58347810
I dislike this guy in almost everything he says and does but I'm happy he lost some of his weight.

Made it to UB2. That was a slog. Even with suicune. I used Eggs sporadically also when I got too frustrated. No idea how anyone can continue to MB unless it’s literally their job

>>58348019
The trick is to get Masterball so you don't need to grind the next time

Why the fuck the next to last promo raichu battle is harder than the expert one? I can sweep the expert one without losing a single point no problem but I can't do that in the previous one and can't get the mission as result.

>>58348035

Eh, guaranteed EX+ isn't so bad since I have tons of holes across all the sets. At least they count towards the individual set missions, but no way you're going to be able to get both emblems of the EX set itself.

>>58348222
I would be surprised if even whales are able to complete the set. Almost half the set is dedicated to a subset of cards that only have a chance to appear, and once per pack at that.

Still a shame this became it's own thing, the regular TCG app really needed more social options, trading/gifting cards eould have been good there as would have the unique artworks

Musharna is so fun, I just realized it's pretty much a stage 1 Gengar, I love it

>>58346956
This. The AI is actually horrible at making gameplay decisions. The difficulty level just increases the chances of it opening with a perfect hand while increasing your chance of bricking. It falls apart quickly if you can get past that.

>>58348774
for a while i just used 18T giratina for every solo battle because it has next to no variance

>>58348804

I've gone back to completing WSS because back then I had some abysmal luck especially in the Lugia packs

>2 Star Professor: 0.156% (1 in every 641 packs)

>Immersive Pika: 1.111% (7 Times more likely more likely than Oak)
>Crown Candy: 0.198% (26% more likely than Oak)
I saw this on Reddit. Is FA Oak going to be the most desired/rarest card in the game considering it's time limited as well? The Black Lotus of PTCGP? Disregarding it has no actual value since it's all digital.

>>58347034
None of the event only promos have become meta despite all of them having some cool quirk to them. They're just not designed to. They're afraid to make them too good probably because they're too limited and untradeable. Imagine if it was good and 2 updates later it became a tier 0 deck - anyone who missed out will just be shit out of luck for that ranked season. Though if I was DeNA I'd totally fucking do that because people SHOULD feel punished for not forcing themselves to open the app daily and do their chores.

>>58347034
Raichu ex might have some use in A-Raichu decks as a backup. They both play very similarly and evolve from the same basic so it's like having 4 of the same stage 1.

Honestly found Sylveon to be the best version of this. Ensures you have your Cynthias in your hand when you need it as well - sometimes it's really clutch and sucks when it's still in your deck. You need to run your combo ASAP in many matches so need a draw engine.

Sylveon in general is a good mon to have in psychic decks.

>The cure for cancer is to splash OG cancer into your deck

Thanks to the anon who posted their brew in the previous thread. Letting Suicune knot inside of Misty turn 1 to win the match before it even starts is always satisfying. Even getting a single head from Misty is enough to win most of the time. Both of us get to move on to the next match with minimal time wasted. Even getting a single head from Misty is enough to win most of the time.

Palkia in place of Giratina since it also has surprise happy birthday single turn wins if Misty is wet enough to take his huge dick head without foreplay. Only feels bad when you go up against a non-Suicune deck but that's like 1 out of every 10 matches so it doesn't fucking matter. Even if you get Misty like mid-game nobody fucking expects the slow ass Palkia you're building on bench to suddenly get 2 energies out of fucking nowhere.

>>58353837
Play literally any deck other than Suicune or Guzz.

>>58353869
I'm playing neither, try again retard

>>58353848
People see shiny new card that was obviously designed as a middle finger to Suicune, but the devs are incompetent as fuck so it doesn't actually bring anything against Suicune that other Pokemon don't already do better. I think people just REALLY hate Suicune so much they're really trying to fuck it over, but A.Raichu already has the same energy cost and can oneshot Suicune without necking itself in the process but AND the ability to be splashed into any deck but still nobody uses it.

>>58353872
They don't have any other Pokemon in their deck. It has practically 0 damage until it reaches stage 2 so you have a few turns to prep before it can reach its potential. The major weakness of the deck is the fact that it does absolutely nothing for the entire start of the match and no other Pokemon as support. It has a large HP pool but 100 damage isn't though to take out anything you should be using against it it one shot, so plan around that.

>>58353837
this thing has never really been that much of a problem for me
it's slow, its damage isn't all that high, and it's quite inconsistent
of course if they go second and rare candy into it immediately it can be rough but that's a trait shared by most rare candy decks and it's not all that common for that to happen
and honestly a turn 3 stokezard or crobat is way scarier than a turn 4 decidueye

>Play this deck

ANTI SUICUNE RESEARCH:

I have been trying to figure out the best Pokemon that can work solo with an empty bench.

First, I tried an Espeon EX deck with a comical amount of healing items. It's not too bad, but, once the Opponent realizes you are purposely not putting other Pokemon on the bench, they usually will prioritize charging up Giratina.

A solo Espeon EX can be quite tanky. Baby Espeon for Oricorio mostly. Sylveon in emergency-use only, don't get greedy with drawing speed.

Then, I tried Skarmory EX. I just needed a back-up Pokemon in case of Oricorio, and Bastiodon seems nice, since you'll ALWAYS start with Skarmory EX in your opening hand. I only have 1 Jasmine in my collection, I would assume 2 Jasmines would be better. This deck doesn't require Pokeball, which gives you more space for supporter cards. Not sure if Steel Apron would be better than Rocky Helmet. Maybe I'll try running one of both...

I've been getting more ranked wins with the second deck, but, it might be RNG luck.

>Opponent throws the match by using Sabrina for some reason
why do they keep doing this lol

afaik decidueye ex is the premier counter-deck right now. suicune struggles really hard when you slap down a 200 hp pokemon that can benefit from both erika and lillie and then just leave your bench empty.
you also get a perfect oricorio counter in baby decidueye without the risk of ever being forced to lead with the wrong pokemon, similar to your bastiodon deck there.

>>58354006
Not him but I absolutely hate touch controls and wish there was a way to do more traditional arrow selection with this game. I wouldn't even mind connecting my controller to my phone for it. Losing because you tapped the wrong thing sucks ass. Attacking when you meant to retreat feels bad since they are right above each other. The Pierce attack in particular is pretty silly cause it's the top move.

mega gyarados is shit and looks to be flat out worse than gyarados ex, while mega blaziken is just another inconsistent fire stage 2 and we all know how stokezard is doing in the current meta.
mega altaria though, whew. stage 1, huge damage for just two energy, and the condition for its attack is very easy to fulfill.

>>58354229
And if it goes first against Suicune, it auto-loses. When so many things are swinging for 100+ damage, you have no way to really stall, and dying means the game is over, you have the makings for a bad card.

full art cyrus and sabrina have to be the two biggest flex cards in the game. ubiquitous enough to be in every deck, but unlike full art oak and crown pokeball they're actual game-winning cards.

It’ll be mega alteria with sylveon that will ruin the game next. Same effect as suicune but with more damage, you get the normal busted sylveon card draw. That or giratina to have that backup engine. Mark my words.

>>58354312
why would you not just use silvally

>>58354319
His balls aren't as big.

>>58354317
at the very least that deck is weak to oricorio since all its main members are ex cards, unlike suicune greninja. sure they can slot in nonex tina or something for it, but you'll have wiggle room.

>Feraligatr
>Tyranitar
>Blissey
Need for Secluded Springs:

I'd be willing to bet the true meta ruining cards for the Mega set haven't even been shown yet

>>58354353
probably true. we haven't seen any of the basic megas yet, and basics are always the most broken cards.

Blaziken looks like the best of the megas to me, kind of just Infernape ex but a lot better

>>58354242
Were you one of the guys saying suicune wouldnt be great pre release because of electric and oricorio. Even if altaria has a bad MU into it there are like 20 other decks it will do good into potentially. Going first isnt even bad, it just means it can charge giratina and get it to 4 faster than the suicune deck can.

In the name of research, I'll switch over to a Decidueye EX/Decidueye deck for a bit.
I've done a handful of ranked battles with it so far and already it's feeling SO FRAIL in the first couple turns.

HP growth for Rowlet line is 60 -> 80 -> 170
HP growth for Eevee EX is 90 -> 140

Decidueye has greater potential once you get the ball rolling. But, unless you get Rare Candy in your first 2 turns, your Rowlet/Dartrix is insanely vulnerable.

>>58354436

>130 for two energies
Am I stupid for thinking this is just okayish? Don't get me wrong, altaria is probably one of the best because it has access to giratina, sylveon, normal espeon and a few others, but i feel that damage isnt great.
If somethingtbe problem is his hp. Guzzlord, Flareon, and Buzzwole can double tap him bit I don't know if anyone else can.
The other two seem more annoying, especially with magby and mantyke.

>>58354679
you're right this is okayish, it has verbatim the same attack as non-ex sylveon. I'm not too sure if the pros outweigh the cons on this card in using it in any psychic-based deck 3bh

>>58354679
130 for two energy honestly isn't that insane given that psychic has no baby to ramp. arceus can already swing for 130 with a full bench on turn 4 with relative consistency as-is, thanks to pichu.
the bigger deal is the massive HP it has. arceus can be taken out in one good shot by slower, stronger decks, but with 190 hp taking altaria down is a tall ask.

>>58354688
>it has verbatim the same attack as non-ex sylveon
wrong, this one is way better

>>58354526
Running a copy of Cleffa helped me a bit with that but it still is kinda cope

>>58354642
kindly

>>58354679
despite it being clearly geared for early aggro, i foresee it having significant use as a finisher in a sylveon giratina setup. you ideally would use sylveon to attack early or just charge up tina and punch holes, then drop mega altaria as a finisher once you've already given up 2 points. sylveon/giratina attacks you, you KO it back, and then you're left with either a damaged ex/mega or a couple KO'd basics, staring down a 190 hp arceus ex equivalent you definitely cannot KO in one turn.
living an extra turn in the endgame means it provides essentially double value as a finisher. by the time both players are set up you're often looking at pokemon like giratina going down immediately after they attack but that's not the case with altaria.

I was stuck in UB3 for ages and switched to a 17T Guzzlord deck, which has gotten me into UB4. Sometimes relies on a little coin flip luck if you don't have Will, but very viable. Grindcore + Will is great in a pinch to slow your opponent.

Switched in UB4 to the Baby Darceus deck (4 babies + 2 Darkrai + 2 Arceus). Surprisingly tough apart from a rare full brick with babies... but most times you'll get a decent opening hand.

If you're sick of your current deck it's worth trying either one for a change.

Try your best to get Zeraora turn 1 (oak before Pokeball etc)
*Generally* spread raikous splash damage on multiple mons on the bench so they can't just be potioned to stop Cyrus
Not sure what other tips I can give, it's a very flexible deck
I did replace one Cyrus with team rocket grunt because I have a thing for that card, and thinking of replacing red with Giovanni so Zeraora can one shot Eevee
6 wins now (against Espeon/Giratina and Raikou/Lantern), still no suicune lol

>>58355153
original poster here. Depends a lot on matchups and what your starting hand is. Try your absolute hardest to start with zeraoras on the bench first turn (professors research BEFORE using balls etc.) unless you are going second against suicune (in which case just be solo until the suicune gets forced out (except in cases where you start with arceus then do that obviously)). The deck is extremely flexible and you wanna take advantage of surprise massive hits from arceus using your zeraora energy batteries. Raikou is mainly there to sneak in cyrus kills since you are running two of them

>>58354225
Mega Blaziken will always hit 140 damage to you and if the opponent hits tails, that's essentially 160 damage in 1 turn which 1 shot every non Mega without using Red or some new supporter that'll increase attack more than 20+. Blaziken might not be the best Mega once the whole batch drops but he is certainly a threat since you can immediately attack turn 3 if you start with Magby and rare candy

you're vastly overrating the thing. it might be strong if you get the god draw and swing turn 3 but guess what? so are fucking rampardos and crobat ex, and those two don't instantly lose you the game when they die. early aggro megas are a meme, you WILL lose the game if their mega is on the bench and yours kills a shitter baby in the front. no ifs ands or buts.

I'm waiting for them to add gladion except it seaches a mega pokemon and the game just revolves around that

>>58356147
The difference is Rampardos is dying in 1 hit while Blaziken wont and has ton of healing options. Also if you run megas then having your non Mega mons in play snt that big of a deal because you only care about your mega surviving and there will be supports/ item cards that will accommodate Megas weakness of ending the game if they die with more heals

>>58356159
Yeah megas have a 70% chance of completely ruining the game by making ex mandatory. Same shit happened in the real life TCG, I think it was around 2020, they introduced powercrept cards that were worth 3 prizes and non-ex decks just stopped existing

>Opponent first turns red card, destroying my hand
>Then shits out a Solgado second turn, ready to shit out 120 damage
This game is just not fair and it's not fun

Just played four matches that played out the exact same fucking way, they had the same decks and open drew the same cards, holy shit this game is gaslighting me

Looking for Shuckle ex (WSS), its the only ex left I'm missing, 7457-9538-8438-6472

Have these for trade

Now THAT's a proper Machamp.

>>58351247
I have analyzed all appearances of Machamp.
Shorts are present in this art and on Bea's Machamp in both ashnime and TCG artwork on Bea TCG Rubber Playmat Set.
All other appearances in games, mangas and anime (including Bea's Machamp in Twilight Wings) have Machamp in briefs.
