Anchor Post for Trades
just pulled a godpack on my alt. now i've got more copies of rainbow lop and 2* serena than i'll ever need and this alt has a pretty significant stash of shinedust so i'm thinking about doing a christmas giveaway for them, assuming people still want these cards by then.
>>58765319Would've been cooler if it was on you main, but congrats. Can I call dibs on the bunny?
>>58765319Congrats, no 1 star or Shiny clutter either
>>58765348godpacks are exempt from shinyslop ever since mega rising, they just don't show up at all. only regular packs can have them.amazing change, desu.
>>58765348Shinies aren't included in god packs anymore, and are only bonus cards now
>>58765334no dibs, at least not yet. still thinking about how to go about this.
>>58765358>>58765359Holy crap, I didn't know that, that's amazing
The literal cotton-picking brownoid that killed the game.
>>58765517>killed the game.How so?
>>58765517sorry steelixbro
>>58765517I can't be the only one that finds this turn of events to be so fucking funny Last season everyone is talking about how bad this card is and nobody wants it. I like the Pokemon so I got multiple two stars This season people are crying about it so hard that it's going to break the game kekI always believed in you whimsicott
>>58765531>>58765525>>58765517It's ain't doing shit with less than 50% win rate on average and the Steelix matchup is less than half. Fucking Hydreigon Sylvally is far more consistent with no EXes.
>What's actually winning in the last 4 days.
>>58765636I think all "vs Magnezone" results should be discounted, since it all depends on how well you flip heads, and that's not related to the rest of your deck.
>>58765589>Mega Venusaur EX 100%Holy kek
>>58765319I want Serena since I'm still mad my girl is paid accessories only, but if you want to wait for a giveaway, I just wanna know what time of day it'll be.
>>58765651With that logic any deck that relies on coin flips shouldn't be tallied. Either way these are just what's winning tournaments. The best in the world is some Jap who let out a video the other day where he abuses the new Porygon Z to 1 shot all the other decks that abuse trainers.
>always flip tails vs MagnezoneI bet that as soon as I open my second copy, all my opponents will be only flipping heads.
>>58765588>This season people are crying about it so hard that it's going to break the game kekIt's just one retard trying to play Venusaur and Blastoise. The deck is pretty bad vs meta.
>>58765319Can't say no to a cute grl.
>>58765666i was thinking something along the lines of having a signup google form and then just picking random people from that on christmas day. no specific time required and would make it fair for people from different timezones.
>>58765651Smooth brain
>>58765659Mega Venu is a 4-retreat thing, you slap on two more stars from the spider boys and you're looking at 270~ damage, enough to one-shot the fat fuck even with a cape.
>>58765319Fucking rad
>>58765517>Also I'm Klans, btwBack you go poltard
>3d LFGenesectReuniclus>3d FTVenusaurBlastoiseAlso have 3Ds from other sets so just ask.5931010787580823
>SoloM-Venu gets demolished by Zard Y, Whimsicott, & Porygon-Z without any counterplay whatsoever
Lopbunny is such a dumb card. Literally just turns the game into coin flip simulator. Not fun to play against or to win as. Just terrible design. Nobody on either side wants to sit through coin flip animations back to fucking back all game. Every Lopbunny player I play against just fucking quits instead of taking the final gamble because they're tired too by that fucking point.
>>58765923We are unironically just back to a hyper powercrept GA meta. One busted zard that auto-wins if it gets to nuke, an absurdly annoying water type and a coinflip simulator fighting type that either instawins or does jack shit. The cards in current meta are more consistent than back then, but the idea is the same, which is ridiculous.
>attack with M-Venu>kill mon>still poisons and confusesWhen are they going to add a check that skips status effects when the mon is at 0 HP already? Unironically the main reason I don't want to play it.
What are some outs to Hydreigon? That card just destroys me and even when I prevail it's only 1 point and there's something else that can come out and continue after it. It feels like Magnezone but faster which is tough to deal with. Its damage threshold can even take out EX cards, especially with Red/Giovanni. I don't know how they made a card like Hydreigon before giving that level of ramping to Dragon which is so slow.
>>58766084>greninja>whimsicott>magnezoneit struggles against all of these
rotation when?
>turn 2>hitmonchan kills my basic with gio>turn 4>hitmonchan kills my basic with giocheese decks are so fucking autistic dudeactually kill yourself if you play this shit
>>58766172Sir, your cape?
should i trade my eng sabrina (i also have a french one) for an eng dx lillie?
i don't care how good lopunny is it feels like such complete fucking ass to playplayed it for one day and already genuinely lost count of the amount of times i've just flat out flipped two tails into an opponent curing confusion instantly
>>58766125I don't see it. If they go 1st, they usually get a kill next turn with Rare Candy Hydreigon. If I go 1st, I'm on the back foot in energy and wind up losing anyway against that kind of early offense. Only hope is they don't draw their pieces which isn't reassuring.
>>58765947Yeah this is kind of why I’ve given up hope on the game, it’s just remixing the same archetypes
would Mega Rising Klefki see play if it had free retreat?
>>58766218nothe problem isn't the retreat it's that it can be your only opening basicand there is literally nothing you can do about that either
>>58766208>play another game after making this post>2 tails with buneary>force heads with will on mega lopunny, other coin tails>2 tails with second lopunny>2 tails with second lopunny>opponent PCL'd the first confusion and coinflipped out of the other twoinsane shit
>>58765262Are any of you guys playing in a language other than English or Japanese? I'm trying to collect Trubbish cards in every language. I need the 1 diamond Trubbish from CG in Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Korean, the 1 diamond from CB in Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Korean, and Chinese, and the 1 star in Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Korean, and Chinese.Most of my cards are Japanese if that matters. Picrel is all the 1 stars I can offer (I also have a spare greninja from DP). For 1-diamonds, just ask, although I don't have many from TL, EG, SS, or MR.8143673077421820
>>58766218not enough decks use tools, and even if they did klefki bricks your pokeballs, so no.

So what kind of trainers or pokemon are people trading for her now?
>>58766498I feel like more people are trying to trade her than people requesting her
>>58766509Ope.

I hate this, I want to kill myself but I need the dust.
>>58766621At 23 wins myself
>>58766235I can trade both Portuguese diamonds.I'm with a Meowth pic. Just take a look at my wishlist or offer whatever you feel like.
>>58766687Thanks! Just got another trade request so it'll be a bit before I can trade with you.
The MLopunny/Magnezone deck from game8 fucking sucks holy shit.

>trying to trade for a red gyarados>everyone just wants fucking shiny Greninja for it>at absolute best id need to trade away the Magneton I spent 1k pack points to get Unless anyone here isnt a psychopath or something im just gonna make an alt, I shall not give these randoms on these trade apps anything now
>>58766822>3 jolteonswhat the fuck?
>>58766845what's so weird about that
>>58766884I feel like its unusually high but I guess I dont know the rates that well
>>58766917random gonna randomi pulled 3 copies of shiny-2 glaceon ex during WSS and that was the only shiny-2 i pulled that whole set
>>58766918Easy special shop tickets there
>>58766919yeah, 8 whole ticketsnot even enough to buy a card sleevelucky me
>couple days ago>have no stamina>get 24h WP>rainbow steelix>skip it to recover stamina since i don't care for the card>get my next 24h WP today>rainbow steelix againfuck off dude
>>58766687>>58766721Sent an offer! Are there any other 1 diamond cards you want/need? Aside from the one I just offered you, I don't have spares of the other 1 diamonds on your wishlist to trade for the second trubbish.
Weird. I don't get my 24wp today. Is It every 48 or 72 hours?
>>58767048It's every 48 hours. I've had three so far. And they've all been fucking dogshit.
Ditto is bugged.Can't copy Mimikyu's Try to Imitate.
>>58766498IDK but some random player on my friends list traded her to me for Team Rocket Grunts
>>58767059I got mine the other day but not today mmmm
>>58766928Well, what else are you going to do woth them? Trade?
Anyone wanna share a 4D M-Venu M-Zard? I'll share back a 4D M-Steelix
>>58767082given that it costs 3k shinedust to turn a shiny-2 into tickets i think i'm not doing anything
They had better be carrying 1250 universal pack points.
>>58767119it's just gonna be a full art delibirdcap this
>>58767119This is it. This is the gift. It's just an immersive Delibird using that exact image. GG NO RE
>stage 1s are completely useless except for evo fodder because they fucking die to everything since they aren't 100+ hp and everything does that much on turn 2 nowI will never attach energy on a stage 1 again, I'm just gonna assume they'll die if they're in the active spot past turn 1
>>58767130what stage 1s even get ran these days aside from energy generation ones like magneton and charmeleon
>>58767127>This is it. This is the gift. It's just an immersive Delibird using that exact image.BASED. I love delibird and use it in my wild swings gyarados deckJUST A LITTLE MORE DELIBIRD
>>58767141>wild swings gyarados deckBased, unfortunately I gave up on the birb in place of Qwilfish ;_;
flame patch is better than misty
>>58767143I use both but it is also unoptimized dogshit xd I still dont have a pyukumuku
>>58767146Wtf give me your FC, I'll share you one
>>58767145>guaranteed energy ramp is better than coinflipswoah whomst would've thoughted
god, jolteon is such a hilariously degenerate decki guess i can embrace metaslop just this once
>>58767149nah im pulling the set right now its just kinda bad luck that I didnt get one in 4 packs lol. Its mostly because im relatively new.Ill still give my FC though, I think id rather trade for a full art though, I love that lil fella
>>58767160im stupid and didnt actually post it 4659754717769300Im still trying to get a Red Gyarados for that deck too
>>58766084It gets kinda cooked by Jolteon since boosting itself up every turns makes it take 60 damage.
>>58766621Just farm it out with a secondary.
>>58767119You're getting 12 wonder pick hourglasses and you'll like it.
Why didn't we ever get a card with selfdestruct
>>58767214Because we're talking about a card that would have to get you the point every time it blew up.
>>58767223Not necessarily, blowing up a 1 pointer for like 150 or so on an ex would be a decent trade even if it didn't get the kill
>>58767206>tfw have 8 wp hourglassesI'll take it
>>58767249not really since a self KO gives your opponent a free hit on your next mon, you're actually ceding the adventage to them by playing such a cardsomething like hydreigon or rampardos will already swing for 130 at only 1 energy cost and then require your opponent to KO it back first so it has to do significantly more damage than that, but doing that level of damage opens it up to stupid greninja cheese
>>58767214Blacephalon is close enough to that
>>58766235I can't help you but this is very cute anon, good luck with it!
>>58767119Oh shit they just updated with what the Delibrid are bringing for Christmas!
>>58767432full art carkoal for the godpick abusersfull art deliberd ex for the honest players

>>58766980It doesn't need to be on the list.Send the oldest spare one you can.

>>58767607Like in every society, there are more takers than givers
>>58767607Maybe it's just me but I would love to share more but limiting to one share received per day is really limiting
>>58767607I have nothing of worth to share with people, because the main things people are missing are old supporters and items and I have none of those.
>>58767620I regularly have 40-50% of my nearly maxed out friend list still able to receive a share even later in the day. To say nothing of how many you can do if you start shortly after the reset.
i'm only missing mega steelix ex to complete the set and i've missed him 10 times in wonder picks. i'm going insane
>need two 4Ds to complete the pack>put both on my wishlist>receive trade offer for one of them>trade partner has no 4Ds on their list>offer up a different 4D from the same pack>wait 16 hours>no trade agreement reachedWhat in God's name is wrong with people
>>58767653what are you looking for / offering?
>>58767636i missed RR Mega Venusaur FOUR TIMES in WP. I think some cards aren't meant to be.
>>58767736LF Steelix and Zard YI'm not gonna list every 4D card I own, but I don't feel possessive of any of them except my Blaziken and would probably be OK trading any of the rest away. If there's any you're looking for let me know and I'll say if I have them.
>>58767079Dang. I actually like rocket grunt's art, glad I have one. Maybe I'll see if I can't get some rainbow pokemon or something.
>>58767741life is not fair
>still 50 points to go until I can buy copycat>haven't opened a single FA trainer since Jasminethis game fucking hates me
Got an immersive Mega Charizard Y.Nice.
>>58767750Just missing Zard Y now as well! Don't have a spare Steelix, sorry :(
>>58767898Same. And I got the other Char from a WP
>>58765319please god trade me the mega venusaur please I'll suck your dick please
>>58767962What do you have to offer for the froge?
>>58767565Thank you so much, anon!
>>58766498I will give you a planeta GA Blastoise for her.
>>58766648I still don't have a single one.
>>58767145Lucklet spotted
We should be able to filter shares. Like "only cards from Crimson Blaze" and "only cards Im missing". No more Genetic Apex Rattatas
>>58766235i can you give you the one star one in germanid like anything in japanese from the earlier sets cause i started playing a couple of months ago
>>58767962I have FA Mega Venus, whatcha got
>>58768089If your "friends" are sending you shitmons that aren't on your wishlist and are already in your Dex, it's time to remove them.I will send low rarity cards for my share achievement numbies, but only right near the reset and/or if they have no diamond rarities on their wishlist (thus presumably they don't care what they receive)
Didn't used to care about the gold pokeball, but now that I got the buttplug I want one
>>58768092These are some of my oldest one stars. Any preferences?
>>58768130id like rotom
>>58768022Nta but >>58768022What are you looking for
>>58768141Thank you!
>>58768093What you looking for
Got red Gyarados on my alt already. Fuck the market im goin my own way
Deluxe EX finally completed
>>58768232How'd you do it? Aside from the reverse foil cards, it feels like it's impossible to ensure that what people trade/share to me is from the Ex pack and not the original set versions
the most amazing thing about zard decks is despite how unbelievably fucking rigged they are in favor of the zard player, zard STILL sucks dick.
>>58768232I had around ~300 already of the set when it closed and people starting sharing the rest little by little.The final card which was reverse holo Jumpluff I went on Discord and traded for.
>>58768243Sorry ment to link here>>58768290
I love skarmory and I want to fuck Jasmine. Is Skarmory EX at all usable
>>58768307you kinda missed the boat on that oneit doesn't really work anymore
>>58768318I didn't think so. If only Jasmine worked with mega steelix or regular skarmory
>>58768307Hard to use with the Megas around but usable. You would probably get a 45% winrate if you build it well. Aegislash helps it nice.
>>58768327That's not so bad. Aegislash is a favorite of mine too so all the better
>Flame Patch helps with Energy Ramp>Quick-Grow Extract helps with Stages>Both CrownsAlright boys Water's next so what'll it be?
>>5876832745% is very generous, skarm ex aegislash was ~33% during mega rising and the new decks from crimson blaze are hard for it to deal with so it's likely even lower nowlots of funnybird going around, zard and whimsicott dunk on it, and there's literally no way you make it through mega steelix no matter how hard they brickand of course new zone has just enough HP to avoid the 2-hit KO while also applying a coinflip status that makes it so you have to attack zone, on average, six times with skarm to kill it
>>58768348Water had its chance
>>58768348what do you mean?water already got its "specific type support that helps with energy" card
>>58768364That's a Tool same as Leaf Cape, different category
>>58768364Finally Suicune won't get one-shot by Whimsicott and his spider buddies!
>>58768373hold it right thereisn't there someone you're forgetting?
>>58768348Something tells me hand denial/card advantage. Something also tells me it will be cautiously undertuned and end up not being playable
>>58768382Water will forever pay for Greninja's and Misty's sins.
>>58768387>rotating GA cards out of versus is the only way to save WaterWew lad
25 wins in the event today. Mega lopunny high rolls makes me think it'll be good for ranked
>>58768022Im assuming you aren't that anon so how about a rainbow mega blastoise?
got another one of these things. now i really have to do a giveaway, damn.
>>58768363It’s just the FOMO powercreep of it all. All your favorite decks will be outclassed more and more with each new set released. If you’re not a meta addicted sweatlord you have to accept that your pet deck will lose most of the time.But most games are come down to luck anyway and pretty much determined in a few turns. So if you’re gonna gamble on that you might as well play a deck you enjoy.
Anyone have a Mega Char Y they'd like to trade? I can give you a... uhm... Mega Blaziken? Ampharos? Melmetal ex? Last one i need for the base set!9152361928360967
>>58768451low winrate decks are fine if they're exodia types where they have strong highroll potential but inconsistency kills the winrate. arceus crobat is fun because sometimes you just go off and nuke their basic turn 3 or get good rolls and get to dump 190 into their mega in a single turn for an OHKO, goodra indeedee is fun because if you get your exodia the majority of decks have no answer and just die, etc.but something like skarm ex that just flounders around doing mediocre damage and delaying the game until your opponent inevitably draws their out is just boring. the only times you'll win with skarm ex these days are games that could be won with literally anything because your opponent turbobricked.sometimes you've gotta just hang it up and move on.
>hydreigonfag attaches and roars in front of my jolteon and takes 90 chip damage>forfeits immediately after the animations finishlol
>>58768468I'll take an ampharos7313966932364155
>>58768543Awesome, FC sent!
>>58768486>skarmory deck is boring>goodra indeedee is funWut. They’re both niche stall decks. One is about mitigating damage and the other is healing it. I mean I know fun is subjective but that’s a bad comparison for your point.
My first God Pack ever (been playing since day 1 btw)
>>58768575why the hell does crown Aegislash even exist
>>58768579Certainly better than the green buttplug. Aegislash is a cool mon.
>>58768575wow A+ tier god pack, anon
>>58768579For the same reason Liligant got one. It's a mon whose purpose is to buff a type.
>>58768586>>58768598but base Aegislash isn't even in this card pack
>>58768557the important difference is that one's a high-roll deck and one isn't. a fully set-up goodra flat out auto-wins against many decks, while pretty much everything can deal with skarm ex because it sucks.they both have poor winrates, but when goodra wins it's because you got to play the game and set up your big "i win" combo, while skarm's mediocrity means it only wins because your opponent bricked extremely hard. and then you're not really winning because of skarm, are you?
I’m looking for people to add to my friend list. I share and give likes each day. Day one player. Most of the folks I had fell off or aren’t as active. FC: 9811-5117-5012-7656

>>58768575I'm so glad shinyslop has fucked off
>>58768575Pretty cool looking god pack anon
I am a very happy collector now.
>>58768620That’s just most decks in the game though.But more to the point is that they’re functionally playing the same kind of strategy, which is stall. Skarmory is “bad” for the reason I initially pointed out, which is that it’s been powercrept by newer stall cards like indeedee. Both are playing a niche strategy that will fold to a lot of meta decks but inevitably be able to cheese wins sometimes. One is just marginally better because of the aforementioned power creep.
>>58768156Serena, Irida, but I'm open to seeing what you got

Double flame patch plus Charmeleon meant I could go into 4 energy right away anyways but what are the chances of having all that in hand?
>>58768719skarm wasn't powercrept by indeedee, it's a support mon FOR stall cards like skarm. there's nothing stopping you from running skarm/indeedee other than skarm being shit. goomy being better than skarm isn't because of powercreep, it's because it's a stage 2 as well a dragon type with inconsistent energy which gives it a significantly higher power budget than a basic. skarm is also a victim of being tied to a specific supporter which lowers its power budget even more.i don't even know what the argument is about at this point anyway, my point was that "shitty deck, big combo" is way more fun than "shitty deck, basicslop."

Just say you like one and not the other lol. Idk why you're writing paragraphs glazing your goodra deck
>>58768959no one cares about your sperg slapfightstfu
>never cared about cyrus when I pulled him because m*le>now it's so sought after I don't even want to trade him for the top tier pokegalsIt's over I'm becoming soulless
at this point it's clear you don't really have a point and just want to argue for the sake of arguing. no (you) for you, i'm done with this.
>>58768967Trade it for your top pokegal later when she arrivesWho is she?
>>58768979I'll probably try for deluxe if it reruns and if I fail to get ririe I'll trade then
So aproximately 1 in 180 wonder pick loads should be a god pack. If you renew all picks every 4hours that is around 180/6. So assuming not missing any pick renew Window that is 1 every 30 days.
>>58769023feels a lot rarer than thati check WP on 10 alts 3 times a day and haven't seen a godpack WP since right after mega rising dropped
>>58769031I’ve never seen a godpack wp and I have been playing since space time smackdown
>>58769023>>58769031God packs with shinies, Immersives, and crowns wouldn't have/won't show up in WPs
>>58769039been playing since TL, i've seen 3. one from TL, one from mega rising, and one just a couple days ago from crimson blaze.hit two, one whiffed and hit a 1-star.
>>58769023Yeah no. Maybe my luck is just shit but I've been playing since day 1 and I have not seen a single God pack WP and I check regularly. I've gotten one from packs though.
>>58769045Well I was taking that into account. If god packs are 1 in 2000 packs then lower rarity ones are around 1 in 2200-2500 depending on the set. That's what my lousy math says at least. If most feel its lower then they could be artificially supressed since they don't have any obligation to keep rates they don't explicitly show right?
>>58769045please don't remind me of the deluxe pack woes
>>58769023>>58769031It always spawns in your offline hours
sorry broyou tried
But what if they update DX to include cards from Secluded Springs?!It is part of A...
>>58769116Post brea
>>58768639Sent. Lugia pfp.
>>58768978No you kind of just leapt over my original point and went down some other path despite me reiterating like 3 times. I’m sorry I offended your favorite deck and I accept your concession
Ok completed the set and all the 1 stars. When do the rainbows and Serenas start kicking in
>>58769206Tomorrow, hopefully! I'm in the same boat. We're gonna get the 2-star first try, r-right?
>>58769221Believe in TRAIR bro, it will all come together
This guy didn't know what hit him
>>58769250the only ditto deck i've lost to so far is a dark one that used the new shuffle liepard
>>58769250HmmmmI wonder if a ditto passimian deck would be fun...
>>58769278How did that work
>>58769250>ditto with steel durantnot a bad idea
>>58769304using ditto to do it means you can keep liepard benched and keep re-using the attack which is actually really fucking strongso he just did that over and over, shuffling ditto into the deck, sending a benched ditto in, and repeatingwas nasty going second since he killed jirachi turn 3 and ripped mega altaria out of my handi probably wouldn't have lost if he didn't keep drawing into ditto but he did
>>58768925waifufags are deranged
>>58765259Does anyone have any deck building advice outside for just copy pasting something from YouTube or using Suicininja?
Anyone with a shiny guzzlord psychotic enough to trade it for a shiny celebi or lickylicky (doubtful)
>>58769339You know what fuck it, I gotta pay things forwardPost your ID, give me tonguechad
>>58768956
Now that Arceus is seemingly not super common this meta and confusion has gained value thanks to Magnezone. It's been fun actually using Mismagius EX unironically in what feels like forever.
Does anyone have a good reuniciuls brew?
Are there a lot of mega pokemon? Will Serena stonks go down over time?
>>58769332>start with main card you want to use (usually an EX)>add other pokemon that support it or are just good in general >add staple trainers (oak, pokeball, cyrus, copycat)>add additional draw/search if applicable (lisia, clemont, gladion, may, etc)>fill remaining slots with cards specifically useful to your deck (x speed if you really need a specific lead, will in coinflip decks, tools like cape and helmet, etc)there's not a lot of wiggle room with deck sizes this small.
Anyone have an extra butt plug to trade? 235 pack points in and only 1 copy.4018498134728310
>>58769417This set only had Megas so I think future sets her stock would rise.
>>58769349Sorry at work here you go4659754717769300
>>58769417the thing with serena is that if your mega is>a basic>a stage 1>or a stage 2 that uses its stage 1 like charizard or venusaurthen she's shitshe NEEDS to be in a deck with a stage 2 mega that goes through rare candy which right now is only blaziken, a deck that's only average right nowout of the 35 non-ZA megas remaining only 12 are stage 2 and who knows how many of those are going to get the "actually good stage 1" treatmentand then they have to be good on top of that for her to actually see playher stocks are only gonna go down because she's will-tier in terms of viability, even with the waifu bonus she's still way overvalued atm
>>58769472Not true I use her in m-venu and she's great
>>58769477using her in mega venu is insane to me since you have quick-grow to do her job but better and as an itemi've played a good amount of venu so far and not once have i thought "wish i had serena right now"
>>58769472>she's will-tier in terms of viability,That's rude, will is far more viable than her
>>58769483Max consistently.She's quick -grow #3M-venu NEEDs to get online as fast as possible and once they happens you basically win on the spot
>>58769487gotta account for future stage 2 megas
>>58769417Serena needs a super mon heavy Mega deck
>>58769472>she's will-tier in terms of viabilityYou are drastically underestimating Will
I need to make a mega pinsir deck that won't have a sub 30% win rate PRONTO
>>58769497if that were true she'd see play in mega altaria but nope
>>58769495i just don't see the need for a fifth mega venu, it's already stupid consistent as-isi would rather have another copycat, another heal, or another piece of disruption like a sabrina or repel to keep ivysaur alive
>>58769513Post your brew? Just curious. I'm using a slightly modified version of mogwais list
>>58769504She needs a Mega heavy deck too. With 3+ Megas she'd be played.
>>58769522>using a one-venu listfine>running serenawtfyou're actually making your deck WORSE by using her in this instanceif you have no venu in hand and you need to use iono(???)/copycat/oak to draw into your venu, you can't then use serena afterwards if you draw her, so she's actively worse than running a second venu that you could just play when drawnwhat are you even doing
>>58769250mr durant man would you be so kind as to expose your deck list
>>58769440No bitt pluggers? I too want to get into the M-Venustoise game.
>>58769524what would a deck like that even look like? maybe if they print a benchwarmer mega (audino?), but that sounds like gigafuck turbocancer waiting to happen.
>>58769540It's still a work in progress but I liked the idea of Durant and dittoProbopass is for rampClaydoll is an experiment
>>58769541my alt has one9654434028067976
>>58769545Mega Audino was good in TCG no? That is unironically a possibility. It also would be cancer.>Mega Audino>3 Retreat>Ability heals 20 HP across the board
>>58769537So where's your list bro?
>>58769541Butt plug what the fuck are you even talking about, retard
>>58769537If anything I feel like you have convinced me to drop iono for a second venu so that way with Serena I effectively have 3 chances to draw venu
>>58769550Sent friend request. Do you need anything in particular?
>>58769547Cont.I should add I'm not bad at deck building so plz non bully
>>58769561I saw on pocketmads channel that using the baby Venu is an option too
>>58769562crimson blaze steelix if you have it (the 2d one), if not don't worry about it
>>58769565It's possible but you CAN outstall oricorio without it for what it's worth
>>58769566Sweet. Thank you!
>>58769565baby venu seems like ass. i keep bumping into mega venu players that quick-grow their ivysaur and immediately consneed when it pulls regular venu.33% of the time you're pulling the wrong card with quickgrow, i don't think oricorio is common enough to make up for that.
>>58769571Plus I saw not many people playing pompom bird in the tourneys anymore and this was a 1000 player tournament
>>58769581no problem and thanks for the steelixhave fun playin venusaur
>>58769584>i don't think oricorio is common enough to make up for that.Yep seems not many people are playing Ori anymore since the top decks seem to be hydregion and some version the the new Magnezone
>>58769593>top decksI should say most played decks but I still think hydregion is a top deck
>>58769593>Hydreigon and Magnezone run the gameOur Tri Attacking heroes.
>>58769593ori seems pretty popular in regular online matches still, it's just not topping tourneys because there's too many matchups it gets rolled by. everything is magnezone, hydreigon, or greninja, and all of those decks just don't give a fuck about the bird.
What should I run alongside magnezone? I only have the old one and I hate mega Lopunny so I won't run that.
>>58769622Magnezone, two babies (Chinglingx2 or Chingling Tyrouge), then either 2 Oricorio with Lightning or MAbsol and Darkai ex with Dark.
>>58769622heliolisk or birb i guessmaybe jolteonanything off-type and you're gimping yourself by using old zone since it discards
>>58769650Heliolisk sounds fun. I have 3 shiny jolts too so maybe I'll do that because funny
>>58769537NTA but>ChinglingI rest my case, the Serena stays
>>58769708Serena saved my ass once vs a chingling
>>58769547zank you, and yeah i was wondering what id do instead of the claydol at least (dont have it lol)swapped out claydol for genesect (wanted to try him since probopass's ramp), added 2 rocky helmets, a may and 2 cyruswon my first game vs whimsicott so im pogging rn. thanks for the idea
>>58769717Ditto is such a based fun haver card
>>58769547Would dialga ex work here or is having a 2 point mon in the cyrus world far too risky?
>>58769717Post brew?
>>58769727I feel like the strength of it is the single points.
Everytime I play against M-Blaze I feel like they high roll me. Any advice to beat that deck?
>>58769717Original poster here. I didn't even think of genesect but that seems like a good fit! Could you share your list anon?
>>58769745It's obnoxious for sure, board disruption barely matters as Flame Patch just makes retreating/Enteimaxxing easier for them. Chingling can buy time but unless they brick immensely it's literally a race to get your shit online fast enough.Why the FUCK did they not include so.ething like a -10 for Resistance in Pocket? Does the original TCG even use that anymore?
>>58769728>>58769768aieee im not a deck builder but here it is
>Supporter card>Your active Pokémon cannot attack this turn.>Also, the Pokémon in your active slot cannot take damage from Pigeon attacks or abilities during your opponent's next turn>It's basically ProtectWhich trainer gets to be the face of this card?
>>58769727ditto can't copy ex mons
>>58769816>my board is greninja, greninja, oricorio>ping your oricorio answer twice>play protectresponse?
>>58769822Yeah I know it would just strictly be forcrsmp, but I suppose it completely kneecaps versatility
>>58769822I bet ditto ex will
This seems like it would be good given how many of these new ex's rely on large amounts of energy
>>58769876sadly it just suckslow damage/energy ratio, stage 2, coinflip attack, 3 points when it dieskilling energy is cool but everyone is playing hydreigon (which discards all its energy by itself) or magnezone (which makes all of its own energy so you're not really achieving anything by removing it)
>>58769808This is fun. I love how ditto can even copy probopass to ramp genesect
>>58769985What on earth is that deck you're versing?
>>58769322I wouldn't expect a soulless defect to understand
>>58769991Jolteon + paldean tauros + salazzleIt was intriguing
The new magneton is unironically underrated in heliolisk mag even if the other one is stronger by most metrics
>>58770033it's a really really strong card in a vacuum, the problem is that it has to compete with GA magneton which is the best stage 1 in the entire game and it's not even close.shame, really.
>>58769985So Genesect is playable???
>>58769985i swear I’ve seen a version of this: Darkness energy, opens with Jolteon ex, poison barbs, and Nihilegos on the benchGod I fucking hated it, but I imagine it bricks half the time.That one seems worse, it actually ran lightning and fire energy? Jolteon is just a wall, it doesn’t have to attack.
>>58770047I still might use it. The thing has a real strong match up against non mega decks
>>58769985Might try this with gholdengo. Flipping 6 coins sounds funni
>>58769522what happens if you face Oricorio? stall with sleep and poison?
>>58770140Yeah not like it can out damage your healing
>>58770084>try this with gholdengogood idea, ill try this since i dont have genesect yet
magneton absol deck feels like a high IQ deckI just wanna turn my brain off and have fun
>>58770186Absol is for fags
>>58770186play jolteon ex jolteon
What are the best packs for me to pull on an alt to get the solo battles done? I feel like I might need like 35k shine dust just to make it worth it
>>58769221>>58769225Yeah it happened on the reset, but it was a Serena who went bottom left, TRIAR loses again ;_;
>>58770247if you just do intermediate and advanced you can do it with basically anything and you can get like 50k from doing thosei wouldn't bother with expert unless it's a really really long-term altjust pull for a card you want and make a deck with cards from that packor just share some tinas, 18T tina rolls shit really really easily
>>58770247>start alt>pick charizard pack>get exeggutor ex guaranteed>default free deck comes with two exeggcute>share 1 egg ex from your main or another alt that's been around long enough to share>roll everything with egg ex>add in other useful grass cards as you get themthat's what i did for all my alts
>>58770247Assuming you started with Mewtwo, sharing a Marowak ex and rocky helmet will give you a deck that can do all beginner and intermediate auto battles easily, as well as most advanced battles. Then for expert, golurk or magnezone/Oricorio works pretty well, but usually by then you'd have enough cards from whatever set you're pulling from to create a deck that works well enough
>>58770268Oh yeah good idea. Thanks friend
>>58770268>passing around Eggy like a whorehilarious
What's the top deck now that Crimson Blaze is out?I got back from a trip and dipped into my stash (would have anyways) to build Mega Lopunny Ex, but there's no way in hell that deck is tier 1 like game8 says it is
>>58770300MAbsol Hydreigon, Oricorio B1aMagnezone, Hydreigon B1aMagnezone.
>>58770300top 15 from the recent 1100 player tourneyit's mostly hydreigon mega absol, with magnezone mega absol as a counterpick and some scattered greninja and altaria decks
>>58770306I remember a few threads ago some mega absol fag bitching about suicune greninja lol eat cock gigafagsol
>FA Clemont for FA pokemon center ladyis this a relatively fair trade?
>>58770363i dunnoclemont is super fucking good and basically an auto-include in any magnezone deck (and magnezone is literally everywhere right now and probably will be for a good long while) while PCL is falling off hard these daysif you really really like PCL then go for it but if you enjoy magnezone at all i'd just keep clemont
Bro definitely didn't expect his whimsicott to get ohko by Ditto
>>58770381heh, the double entendre
What do people usually ask for FA Sabrina?
>>58770529honestly unless you have a serena right now you're not gonna get a good trade for her, people only want equally high-tier cards like copycat and DX lillie and those just aren't worth trading away.
finally i can consider WSS completeand with deluxe pack getting a rerun soon my autism just might be sated before february
>>58770581man why is it so damn hard to get I just wanna run my wild swings deck with one of the few clean looking shinies
>pull a god pack on my alt and get a crown>main has NEITHER of these pulled
Bros... Can anyone trade me a whimsicott ex? I want to have some FUN with the ariados deck. I don't have many dupes from the new set. Only m steelix for now. But I have many from the podere One8254401465830103
>>58770597blame dena for tying a mission to specifically shiny gyaradosand then blame dena again for making shiny-1s cost 10,000 fucking dust to trade for some reasonlike i don't intend to use this card whatsoever i just needed it for completion's sake and i would absolutely just give it to you for nothing if it didn't set me back 40% of a 2-star trade to do so
>>58770617is your share still open for today? i can share you one but i'm not spending 5k dust on a trade sorry
>>58770620its a real bitch because I even have 3 shiny jolteons but people ONLY want Oricorio, Magneton (which I had to earn 1k pack points just to get myself and would never trade because its my favorite pokemon) or Greninja
:/
>>58770628>Not even the Sunflora, which you have 0 oflmfao JUST
>>58770624there's way more people who want it than people who both have it and are willing to eat the dust cost to trade it, so they basically get free pick of whatever shinies they wantand obviously the most wanted shinies besides gyarados are the currently meta onesit is what it is
>>58770635Yeah, its a pain in the ass I suppose. I figured Jolteon would be meta enough
>>58770624if you really want gyarados that badly, make an alt. we passed the 1,000 pack points mark for what a fresh alt can get with mega rising, so if you're willing to sit there and auto every single solo battle you can hit the 200 packs to just buy it raw and send it to your main.
>>58770622Yes It Is! Add me pls! <3
>>58770649Yeah I did at this point, was hoping I didnt I pulled it within my first 10 pull and also pulled this shit >>58770616
>>58770661added, pika icon
>>58770638maybe if there was a shiny jolteon ex, i could see someone going for a whole shiny setup just becausebut by the time jolteon ex gets a shiny it won't be playable anymore
>>58770668accepted the request. Thanks kind anon!
>>58770675sent the sharehave fun anon
>>58770673I wouldnt be able to trade a shiny jolteon EX I already have shiny gyarados EX anyway
my phone is too old and poor to run Pocket but I just got it to work on my tablet...holy shit guys. I thought it was a dumb idea when I first heard about it when it came out but now that I have tried it....the opening of the packs and the shorter battles are so goddamn addicting. its like crackanyone else feel the same or has it worn off for you?
>>58770690i dunno about addicting but i've been playing since triumphant light and i still have a good amount of fun just doing casual pvp battlesranked is giga cancer aids though
>>58770708even tho I just started I know I'm too much of a filthy casual to be playing any high level ranked matches down the line. good to know, though
Anyone got M Venusaur EX for trade or sharing?5931010787580823
>>58770679It's a really fun deck
i should prob just save shine dust to try and trade for some oaks next month huh
it's a shame RR whimsicott is so fucking ugly. It looks ready to be buttfucked. Why would I want to use it in battle?
What are some good pokemon to run with Aegislash? +30 damage seems like it has a lot of potential but I guess it might be too slow/bricky as a 2 stage
>>58770797I've been running a Dialga+Chingling build with it.
Anyone got a spare Quick Grow Extract to trade?
>>58770801>hate both of those pokemonI appreciate it all the same
>>58770804Sky's the limit really, I've seen Togedamaru+Skarmory builds since the Aegislash buff applies twice to the iron rat.
>>58770811Damn. I will have to find something I really like then. Togedamaru is such an ugly pieece of shit pikachu clone
>>58770797Not good, but it is funny if you use Mew EX with it
>>58768792never saw elemental switch when batteling, I thought it would be kinda useful, why doesn't it see that much play?
>>58768863I have the shittiest luck when using moltres ex, it's almost guaranteed that all three coins are tails when the first one is tails
>>58770898Because it might as well be an electric only card and it's only really good if you're also running Zeraora.
>>58770803Yeah add me6007733667722059
>>58770903Oh I already managed to get it elsewhereThanks anyway
>failed the RR Mega Venusaur FOUR times in Wonder Pick>finished the base set and 1-stars to get a 24h pick>the first 24h pick is a RR Mega Venusaur*sigh* I have to wait a few hours to get the stamina up, but i'm gonna miss again, aren't I?
>>58770931A 1/5 chance can't possibly fail a fifth time, right...?
