I could see a Mega Charizard X working if it needs some other type. Have no Fire Energy, generate it instead from Charmeleon. They'd make it so broken it'd overcome those limitations.

i have 1250 points on mega rising and i don't really want any other pokemon cards so i'm thinking about doubling up on a trainer card
who gets run 2x copies the most between may, copycat and lisia the most?
>>
>>58889112
neither, but copycat is probably the most valuable. may is too but less applicable to decks.
>>
>>58889112
Copycat×2 is a must for certain decks that need to find pieces quickly plus since its value's not going anywhere definitely that one.
>>
>>58889112
Lisia if you play M-altaria if not then choose Copycat
>>
>>58889112
Double Lisia is niche decks like Whimsicott
Double Copycat is really only for really fast decks or fear of Mars
Double May is best for trying to hit a specific evo combo

I'd say... Copycat. Might make a crazy deck like full fossil that can use it.
>>
>>58889014
cuz fuC is bad word
no the spacing doesn't count, that's why you can't use names like zapdoS EX or gyaradoS EX either
>>
Tried out a few Tyrantrum builds and I like it with Garchomp ex the most who also benefits with Pokeflute
Too bad it's also the one that gets cucked by Chingling more than the others
>>
>>58889045
He’s terminally on social media where there’s a meme that has a girl say “akira!” and akira goes “aaaaugh… leave me alone!” because he’s tormented by something innocuous, in this case, the same card showing up.

It's not great but I think they purposely added all the new splash damage shit like Spiritomb, Toxtricity and Obstagoon to give it more things to protect against. If it were a stadium that protects the whole bench without taking the cape/helmet tool slot then I could see it being more well-acceptedd

Normally i think that would be too strong, but its necessary seeing how broken greninja is. Generic powerful cards mixed with greninja keep coming up its so dull. Apparently people are winning with mimikyu greninja

I don't even mind Darkrai, you need to burn your energy every turn to feed the fat fuck, meanwhile Greninja does it for free and can pick its targets.

It should be clear by now that the dog is irrelevant and that Greninja synergises with any good standalone mons.

this card would make sense if a deck is particularly weak to greninja, but the reality is that gren + cyrus is the strongest combo of the game by far and that every deck is weak to it. anything that is good against every combination of cards should not be allowed

180 attack is hilarious, deletes almost anything that isn't a Mega but I'm still trying to find the right partner for it
I'm playing it with Garchomp ex right now which also benefits from using Pokeflute with its bench snipe attack
Hitmonchan is OK, Passimian's feels terrible going second, Donphan sort of works like Garchomp where it can attack with just 1 energy and hit harder if necessary and is only stage 1 so no issues with Chingling like Garchomp, then there's Snorlax ex + Ilima but I haven't tried that one yet

Even if you exclude trainer and preevolution cards, there's plenty of useful standalone 1-2D basics like Furfrou, Manaphy, Pyukumuku, bench snipers like Jirachi and Hitmonlee and Oricorio killers like Komala and Torkoal
It's the final evolution 1-2D cards that have been largely worthless

>>58890272
Those are just a handful of cards out of hundreds.

I’m not a TCG junkie or anything but when I played Master Duel I felt like when a (modern) card archetype was bad the game was a lot less aggressive about it, a card would do something cool but be too hard to get off. Then this game is like
>it’s a 3 stage that does 100 damage for 3 energy
>>
>>58890312
Pocket's card design is just really boring and safe.
>>
>>58890312
Yugioh's filler cards tend to have niche effects that are unique and may eventually have some kind of use somewhere
The filler cards we're getting here are just reskins of older cards that were already unusable the first time, but to be fair this is a special format so nobody cares about the slop they churn out
>>
>>58890321
Not really, because the power creep is also immense. Nearly every set we get a new best deck. Crimson Blaze is the only real outlier in the past few months.

Yu-Gi-Oh at least makes packfiller archetypes have some sort of win condition that, if it does go off, can get you a few wins, but usually they're just not consistent enough or too vulnerable to a certain counter that they aren't good. "Pet decks" are barely a thing in PTCG.

>>58891151
Bruh, I have garbage luck. I've played 4 games, and 3 of them I had no copycat and Maushold in my starting hand. This deck really only works if you go second, flop a whole board and then start attacking immediately turn 4 against an opponent that can't deal 40 damage turn 3.

You don't really have time to put Maushold back onto the bench to search and flop a maushold onto the bench "late game" either.

It's a cute fun deck for sure, and it's going to piss some people off in ranked, but not really any threat unless you're lucky.

After pulling the immersive Garde I was curious what the planeta market was like, and I should've known it would be similar to the planeta Indeedee, not that I have that much dust to spare
Diantha I think still has the new card smell, both in terms of novelty and scarcity, but I was also surprised by how I could get pretty much any card for it besides Oak, Cyrus, and Seer apparently
Diantha's market will come down as more of them are available, and people want the next new thing, not unlike how Lisia, May, and Serena were a lot more difficult to get than they are now

Has anybody considered adding it to I dunno swampert deck?
>>
>>58892181
Swampert is a failed experiment.
>>
>>58892181
I use a swampert deck but it's already so cramped that I can't run any control cards
>>
which is more aesthetic to use? RR Mawile or Planeta Mawile?
>>
>>58892202
post both so I can decide

here you go.

>>58892207
one of the rare cases where planeta looks better desu
>>
>>58892208
thanks, I'm kind of partial to the Planeta too.
>>
>>58892207
the pose and framing on the rainbow is just weird
they did her dirty man
>>
>>58892184
Sadly I agree
>>58892195
I guess you need more ramping rather than obstructing your opponent.

Suicune Grenigger takes another giant tourney? Guess I can ignore this set and go back to Celestial Guardians

>my RR Jolteon for Diantha
>my May for Diantha
Are these trades worth it? I feel like May is worth a little bit more than Diantha in the long run, as it has way more versatility.

maybe i am biased but the FA diantha art doesn't feel like an improvement over base art unless you really like the character itself and/or gardevoir
>>
>>58892262
Yeah, but the FA is an FA.

i feel like it's a waste to spend 25k shinedust on something that isn't a huge art improvement from base art
>>
>>58892271
Anon, those are dangerous thoughts.
>>
>>58891798
lol

>>58892246
I feel like Pokemon for Trainer trades are almost always worth it because most Pokemon fall out of meta every set while trainers are always coming back around
>>
>>58892288
Specifically for the case of RR Jolteon, it's a RR eeveelution, which is worth a lot to most people. Once RR Vaporeon releases, everyone that didn't bother getting 1 of each is going to be scrambling to collect them all. If it was any other Pokemon for Diantha I'd be more willing.

Tis similar to the case with Lusamine, who I would've still traded for if I didn't pull her, but not for Diantha given the dust cost

how do I make a better screenshot of my deck on my shitty smal phone screen?
>>
>>58892329
alright you can still mostly see what is what. so thoughts on the deck? I'm almost thinking about getting rid of misty because I have such shit luck with her. usually when mega swampert comes out things go well, but in the last couple of battles I had a hard time getting him out in the first place

Misty feels a bit redundant with Manaphy
>>
>>58892331
Keep Misty, I feel like she compliments M-Swamp well
>Can get your M-Swamp up and running early
>If you get lucky and highroll, the surplus energy is an insurance if you discard your own energy
>If you do discard your energy, having a Misty can potentially unbrick yourself
Its random but so is M-Swamp really
