Mega Raichu when? Tera Pikachu is the only good Lightning card left after rotation.
Reposting Pika Trolley. Personally, I don't think it's good, but it's an option.
>>59340584I like how none of the new big basics have more than 190 HP.
>>59340599Perfect to reduce powercreep when dragapult leaves- >Garchomp proceeds to take over the meta with 400HP and ohkoing all the non-mega ex's
>>59340600I bought everything I needed for Garchomp and was excited to play it, and then Hydrapple started catching on a few weeks later.
i wonder if we will get any new mega ex cards or just KANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO and kanto-adjacent cards
>>59340615We're getting mega fug and nu mega lucario.
>>59340600>garchomp ohkoing all the nonmega exs
>>59340584Ugly as hell...Idk why they thought this was a good design for a card when their SIR or alt art cards look 80x better.
azul dog shit gg
fug time?
>>59340673Why was this attack not called Buzzing Bees?
>>59340673>Grass thinking it exists in a post tealmask/bug catching set worldYou had your 3 years of fun now it's time for you to go be the worst type again
it's not fucking fair, how am I supposed to play the game when 5 of my 6 energy cards are prized?
is beedrill not meta or am I just bad? I can't break 1550 in ranked
>>59341155Beedrill is a meme deck.
WHY DO THESE FUCKING FAGGOTS WIN EVERY SINGLE GOD DAMN FUCKING COIN FLIP I HATE CONFUSION I HATE CRUSHING HAMMER I HATE ALL OF THIS FAGGOTRY I JUST WANT TO PLAY THE GOD DAMN FUCKING GAME
HE JUST WON ANOTHER FUCKING HAMMER JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
>>59341155I think beedrill is meta considering it's good against pult and pult is 50% of the meta right now. its only worrying match ups I can think of is zam. crustle or single prizer decks aren't going to be popular enough to give beedrill trouble. it could be a skill issue but only you can decide that.
Sigh, I wonder what Cerys is up to...
>>59341176>I think beedrill is meta considering it's good against pult>>59341163
>>59341185I would not take limitless percentages seriously. most people playing in those tournaments are bad. it's like taking city league results seriously. for example, joltik box had a 51% wr against gardevoir on limitless but that never reflected reality. there's probably a good 20% margin of error when it comes to limitless percentages. beedrill is also a new deck and people are trying to figure it out still
>>59341189Oh, I didn't think about it that way. All the data points we have to go on are wrong and you're right. Beedrill is just too complicated a deck for people to know how to play. Put Tree, get Bee is too much for me.
>>59341192yeah the data points on limitless also say beedrill is doing about as well as pultnoir is. so you're wrong on both sides lmao
>>59341197PultNoir is the worst version of the deck. Adding 1 Red Card didn't change that.
>>59341197Beedrill is a shit deck that 40-60s every version of Dragapult.
>>59341204this is false because blaziken pult is the worst version of pult>>59341214but I've beaten every pult I played against
14-2 Slop Box vs 15-1 Ghost Veil in the Japan Championship finals.
Any tips for this build and battle? the starter decks are fucking dogshit
>>59341308Because Ghost Veil is a based deck that will get banned.
I can't believe slopbox wins
Fuck this build and battle mode. Losing all my matches because of these fucking dog shit starter decks and giving me some trash fucking cards. Yes I love getting knocked the fuck out because I pulled six energies in my starting hand. Yes I love losing these matches against some lucky cunt that pulled a full line of exs. GET FUCKED
>TCGPlayer ships order without tracking numberWhy do they do this shit? I'm still missing a card because of it.
Why didn't Tord go? He dropped a shitty Dragapult list last time and then trolled with Lopunny only to be outclassed by Lopunny
>torb
>>59341088>3 years of funThis type was not relevant for like 6 until it became a tier 3 deck last year
>>59341506are you really surprised that JP can only win with a big basics deck when their ADHD cripples them mid-game if they try and play anything that isn't instant results
>>59341579I'm surprised that Chaos Rising was somehow the most balanced of the 3 formats so far. Typhlosion and festival lead have no place in single prizer formats.
>The slowdown glitch can happen on your first battle of having the client openThat's what I get for wanting to try out the slopbox list.
MOTHERPHUCKING APOLOGIZE
>>59342128I said this deck was fine a few weeks ago
You guys didn't tell me I was missing out on limited time bundles. At least the previous days are still in the shop this time.
>>59342128Ascended Heroes Tax
>monkey's paw curlsgod damn it dude
>>59342421That's what you get for asking for something from this shit company
>>59342421Why is Psychic squinty now?
>>59339659You should put Clefairy into the same deck Espeon will be, with other psychics. But for Clefairy to OHKO Lucario, while not -that- hard, it only happens in slop tera decks that run Area Zero.Clefairy +Espeon will OHKO Dragapult with the same full board as it does to Lucario, even if oppo has nothing in their bench.And again, it does not die to Pult back unless they have two energized Munkidoris and 60 damage on their side or a Dusknoir.
>>59342421I always disliked the pikachu stamp on the cards. do people actually like it?
>>59342543It's collector bait. Even though it has a set market on the fucking card, they feel compelled to mark it as if they are ever going to fucking reprint it.They are retards.
>>59342421Are you kidding me?
>>59342651Those look better.These new ones are gonna look so bad.
the west doesn't get the big symbol energies anyway, no reason to get your panties in a twist
>>59342421I bet these will look better irlThe way they are forcing the pikachu stamps seem like they want to push brand recognition as hard as the mickey mouse one.
>>59342672More bothered about the gay pikachu stamp ruining it We rarely get holo energy anymore and those seem like they'll have a completely new ones
You can rebuy the destiny rivals cosmetics today only if you missed them There's daily shop bundles each day currently. Also 4 other perm bundles
>>59342681brother we get holo energy in every special set and every prize pack
>>59342690I meant different looking ones. 151 are still my go to for use I just wish they'd print more unique looking ones like gen3/4, which were more than just a holo pattern. Prismatic had the cracked glass backgrounds built in but it looks kinda shitty desu. Twilight ones were patheticThey should know how sought after the HGSS ones with the mons on them I'm surprised they've not printed anything like that again. They don't do enough with energies anymore
>>59342659The problem isn't look it's the price fluctuations. I'm wondering if prices go down on the hyper rares because of this.
>>59342768>investorfaggingYeah don't care, lmao get fucked.
>collectorshitfuck off faggots
>investing in pokemon cardsyou have to go back
>>59342703Imagine something like this, but with the cave interior covering the whole background like the HGSS energies.
>>59342838Exactly. They could make them the SRs if needs be. They're would be way better than the gold energies I really don't know why they don't make anymore energies like the mon silhouettes/landscapes anymore.>Dark energy has mega darkrai silhouette for his set>Same with water and greninja>Special sets could have all the eeveelutions or whateverThey can tie it into the set every time, even when you get to repeating energy type it can be a different mon this time.
>>59342907I have 77 of these across all types so I don't really care if they never print another cool energy lol
>>59342925You gotta work on your empathy
>>59342944might be the gayest thing ever posted in /tcg/, congrats
>>59342968It was a fourth draft with the other 3 calling the guy retarded in some form, it is what it is
I just want these card sleeves in TCG live how do I get them
>>59342907If you talk to vendors the conclusion is basically two types of people buy energies.- People who play the TCG- Energy collectors.Because of that there's zero supply and zero demand.
>>59343016Even pokemon collectors like HGSS ones, because well... they feature pokemon too. It makes no sense why pokemon have never tried making appealing energies like those again.They finally got over the ugly gold item/tool/stadium card autism and gave proper colored FA's which are much better. It's just energies left for them to get around to fixing
>>59343053I have zero doubts pokemon themed energies would have some of the lamest pokemon imaginable on them instead of the ones I like, so I'm fine with it as is.
>>59343016When I was trying to complete my set of SUM Base Energy, I found a shop that had a ton and bought all of them. The guy at the counter said "You mean you actually want these?"
>>59343055Like I mentioned before if it became a thing they printed then more mons would get them over time, rather than a 1 and done thing like hgss. Probably set dependant like the darkrai/greninja to match the spotlight mon of the set if they're treated as SRs The fact they're not even trying it is just depressing though. They have gotta see how much the hgss are talked about and even their prices absolutely btfoing all golden energies. There's definitely a demand for energies having pokemon on them like this
>>59343053These would still be legal to use right?
>>59343090no...
>>59343090No. If they're printed, it would probably fall under the same rules as signatures on cards, and if they're stickers, they're marked and weighted.
>>59342993You could trade them with other people on the old client. Your only hope now is to find someone selling a code for them still. Which is pretty much impossible now..
>>59342651>>59342659They look bad for many reasons, at least from what was shown. There doesnt seem to have any pattern in the background, they look similar to the MEG foils which are the worst so far.And they have the annyversay stamp... in the terrible colors of the new rarity. They asked Gmini to "use all colors" it seems, its so damn bad.Meanwhile, Crown Zenith had awesome patterned background. I also like Shrouded Fable foils for this reason.
>>59341180Aggressive fingerbanging, or testing for NAIC
imagine making something so bad that even 5Ban's looks better
>>59343187The holo might look nice. A lot of cards look ugly on flat digital textures compared to real life
>>59343187The most annoying people you'll never meet will go online and say this is worth hundreds of dollars and yet it's so bad it would see next to no actual play
>>59343194Their only saving grace would be if the foil is actually like what they used on those 3D holo POG slammers, where it has shifting depth to it.
Flareon Box is just shitter Slop Box right?
>>59343246Pretty much, yeah. I'd say the one advantage it has is maybe being better into Grass decks because of Flareon?
>>59343246yeah but at least you get to use trumpet which is awesome since you can be more aggressive early with noctowls against some decks
>>59343253It's not that good. You can't OHKO Arboliva or Beedril with Charge even with Gravity Mountain. You need Black Belt for that.
>>59343187the fucking squinting energywhat where they thinking>>59343194they need some serious texture work. the energies too need some patterned symbols all over them like crown zenith
>>59343194It's not selling me, it looks like shitty synthwave tier AI graphics made by a zoomer who was "born in the wrong generation".There's no way it's going to look good, like it's fucked how generic alt arts of shitty pokemon like snover mog the "chase" shit.It's all soulless shit. Get the people who do full art trainers and tell them to make pokemon art.
>>59343550pic rel mogs HARD the new rarity mew
>>59343577I agree, it does.This does as well, even though it's not fancy art. Like it's so easy to make good card art.
>>59343187>dragon energy
all I want is cheap new pikas, I know it won't happen though since it's gonna be scalped to hell
they have to taunt us with gardevoir as pult terrorizes the meta
>>59343779every pack contains a pikachu so they're going to flood the market while people chase for the rare cards like mew
>>59343785Dragapult has just been humiliated for the last couple regionals, tho.
>>59344051Yeah, but that's the problem. All of these decks coming out are just pult humiliation decks, and then job to everything else because it does one singular thing really good which is fucking up pult or any other deck that relies on stage 3s and isn't grass.
>>59343785oh my goddo, there is a hidden Gardevoir on that pikachu card. This will definetly worth 1000 dollars
>>59343246probably. it lost pidgeot and mew so it has less counters to unfair compared to slop box's kang, meowth, fez, and ogerpons.
>>59344506Pikachu is more popular than Gardevoir.Actually, Gardy popularity is vastly overblown as a meme.
>Ghost veil got translated to hide n sickkinda cringe with these meme names for everything
>>59344926I think it's absolutely adorable.
>>59344926>hide n sickhide n sneak. weird autocorrection
>>59344926https://www.pokebeach.com/2026/06/pitch-black-prerelease-promos-revealedThe pre-release format looks like it is going to miserable. Bastiodon is going to prevent you from using any cheap attackers because you need to manually attach 3 energy to something as soon as possible.
>>59344926>Turn an actual cool sounding archetype to a reddit deck with a single name changeFuck. Hope they copy the japanase original for my local language
>>59344939>Slowbro is going to be bricked half the time>Bastiodon hard shuts down dhelmise and also slowbro>Miraidon will do alright into all of themIt doesn't look fun
>>59344939It doesn't matter because you just put 3 energy on Dhelmise and win the game.
>Still runing Ethan deck>Still shit even with Ascended Heroes additionsThe pain
I'm bringing this to my local league this week.AMA
>>59345207No idea how Dragapult loses to this, you can just ignore stuff hit for 70 if you have to slowly build up damage, use hammers or use other attackers
>>59345212>hit for 70If you are implying attacking with drakloak then you are retarded as trevenant one hits it with just 2 buffs for one energy.
>>59345228Read the card
>>59345239That's even worse lolYou are trading 2 prizes for 1 as it is not even that hard to reach 160 as trevenant using corner or outright twoshooting it with a backup 'nant.
>>59345259pult can respond with 3 prize ko on with boss and munkidori after the 70 hit if they try to go corner and ko
>>59345266Exactly>>59345259What you don't get and probably what I don't get is that unless you're consistently killing Hop's Pokemons then you're not getting hit by a lot, you can play a slow game where you set up your Munkidoris you build damage around and then go for multi-prize turns without risking losing Dragapult as you build the damage, sure it can die after that but it's a 3 prize turn minimum for a 2 prize attacker if you even have all the pieces to knock it out, not to mention it only works with Hop's Pokemons so if you aim for a Clefairy or Shaymin (but they won't bench it) then their attacks don't countI just don't see Dragapult losing this on paper
>>59345266And then get oneshot immediately after by another trevenant. That's 4 prizes, two stage 2's and 4 energy down the drain.
>>59345276>I just don't see Dragapult losing this on paperDragapult doesn't attack for free. Trevenant does. That's about it. Also Phantup can start taking prizes from the start of the game, giving you a prize headstart.
>>59345277>And then get oneshot immediately after by another trevenantpult kos with an effect of an attack not damage so it can't revenge kill and you can't bench clefairy again that turn. you would need a different attacker to keep up in the prize race.
>>59345292Just attach an extra energy and hit with corner. The deck runs 3 night stretcher, a secret box and 4 petrel so getting clefairy back shouldn't be too hard.
>>59345276>I just don't see Dragapult losing this on paperJust dodge them lmao
>>59345315He went up against 6 pults which is on par with its ~30% play rate and btfo'd most of them, literally only lost to one. Having a 80% winrate seems pretty clear, no?
How do I win more games? The highest I've ever managed to get in Arceus is 1600. I don't even feel like I'm playing poorly when I lose, I just get screwed by prizing.
>>59345376What deck?
>>59345377Beedrill Ex with Arboliva and Dudunsparce is what I'm playing right now. Prior to this set I was playing Chandelure with Mega Frosslass, similar results.
>>59345404I'm on the same boat as you, prizing hasn't screwed me over but bad hands have, I switched to Beedrill without Arboliva and it's a bit more consistent, I reached 1800 with Dragapult and I'm current 1500 with Beedrill, it's still more fun to play it but you depend on what you draw
>>59345302pult would have to be really unlucky with their hammers for you to have enough energy to corner and clefairy ko twice. I could be wrong since I haven't put a lot of games into it but after a handful of them I can't see it being incredibly favored into pult. I'll have to see how it does this weekend at NAIC since NA is typically pult heavy I think.
>>59345413Like I just lost a game to Wellspring Ogerpon of all things. 3 of my 4 trees were prized and I just couldn't draw anything that could get me to a board state where I could actually play the game
>>59345424You mean 4 bees right? And yeah that's what I mean, we rely on what we draw, no Arboliva makes that a bit more consistent but still shitCould throw in Dudunsparce ex just to be able to attack with something
>>59345413>Beedrill is inconsistent shitterbaitSay it ain't so.
>>59345433No, trees. The stadium card.
>>59345438Is the answer really just play dragapult? I just hate how dragapult looks.
>>59345438It is>>59345443Lmao I thought you meant Arboliva, when that happens you just need to prepare for it by trying to have everything on hand or play a slow game with Arboliva just trying to evolve that first with the only forest of vitality you have
>>59345433>Could throw in Dudunsparce ex just to be able to attack with somethingthrow in fan rotom for an attacker and dunsparce searcher
>>59345451Dragapult and every pre-rotation S tier deck did well only because of how consistent they areAll grass decks as far as I have tested rely only on what you draw, my most consistent one was Arboliva Meganium with the 1-1 Noctowl but now everyone runs Shaymin, Hydrapple and the rest rely on bug catching and good hands so you usually play as you go, Beedrill has the biggest issue with this because now you need at least 3 Stage 2s to hit proper numbers>>59345456That's what I have, I'm running 4-3 Dudunsparce, 1 Fan Rotom, 4-4-4 Beedrill
>>59345454That's the problem. I never got the one forest I did have so I couldn't build anything up without getting sniped by Wellspring. My opponent seemed to always have whatever they needed in hand to accelerate energy onto Wellspring.
It's bad enough seeing Hop's stupid nu-design face on your opponent's side of the board without making it into a deck that that oneshot everything without even needing to acknowledge that energy cards are something that are in the game
>>59345451>Hop's complainerHow the tables have turned.
Crustle fucking sucks what the fuck? Limitless told me this deck was good. Just got my shit wrecked by a Hariyama Lucario deck.
>>59345535Literally how? You are retarded.
>>59345553Solrock raped my Crustle. Kangaskhan is weak to fighting. Can't accelerate energy onto Stonemask. What the fuck was I supposed to do?
>>59345561Just play 2 Crustles and charge them up?
What the fuck? So I play another game and my opponent has fucking Dudunsparce Ex which just completely ignores Crustle's ability. My first two games with Crustle have been an absolute nightmare.
crustlefags when they realise they can't just automatically win games with their deck-in-a-can matchup fish list and have to actually play the game above the level of a trained rat
Ok fuck it I'm giving up on playing Crustle. Third game I get matched with Ethan's Typhlosion. This deck is dogshit. No idea how it took 2nd in Indiana.
>>59344939Pre-release is going to make my want to kill myself.Like this is the first time I'm happy that I don't have to play more than 3 rounds of a pre-release event to get my packs and fuck off.
>>59345619Try hards are going to tourneys.Causals who have nothing to lose are playing mid decks on TCG live.You have better odds of running into pure EX decks and preforming with crustle at large money tournaments than you do on TCGL.
I hate this fucking game. I just want to play fun decks. Why am I required to play Dragapult or Hop?
>>59345697Play slopbox
>>59345697If you're the Crustle fag, how the fuck do you find Crustle fun?
>>59345697Because fuck you, that's why.
>>59345709Nta but crustle is fun as fuck to play irl specially if your opponent is the loud kind.
>>5934573599.99% of pokemon players are not going to instantly crash out from across the table just because you're playing their counterdeckyou've been watching too many staged tiktoks
>>59345619anon, crustle is a wall deck. just like slowking, it does well depending on how many decks are teching for it. it just won LA so now decks are teching for it. if both trevenant and slowking didn't do well at recently it probably would have been okay to play. I also don't know what limitless results you're looking at but it barely won half of it's games at turin
>>59345765>just won LAmy mistake, it got 2nd
>>59345769It got 2nd without the pilot even know what cards were in his own deck, which kind of goes to show just how little skill requirement the deck takes to playIf you can't manage even that then...
>>59345775yeah I don't think it takes a lot of skill to play it either, but if you're newer to the game I can see how you would make mistakes or get frustrated with the deck when picking it up. it is just a pile of 60 cards that has some strange game plans. especially with the kangs now
RUINED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBo1iTgrFss
>Get the Serperior deck>Queue against Barbaracle 5 timesEZ. I pulled a 1-1-1 decidueye ex and judge that I left out of the deck. I also didn't get to use the 1-1 mega starmie that I did put in the deck.What are the other 2 decks in the perfect order B&B?
>Hops>Ghost veil>Carries psychic for the next 3 yearsYou thought psychic favortism was over since gardevoir rotated? Ohnonono! It will never end!
>>59346203Sorry but Hide n' Seek is based and agere pilled.
>>59346213I will keep deadnaming the mechanic as 'ghost veil'
Hide n sneak GET IT HAHAHhide and seek. but sneak. because ghosts LOOOOL
>>59346308meanwhile bug panic chads will keep their name and get a better archetype next set
2 pults
>>59346881Ghost Veil can't be THAT good.
>>59346882Another person who has not read Hide and Sneak's cards.
Opinions on this list I cooked up?
>>59345433Business idea: Bees plus Trevenant deck
>>59346313hide n sneed
>>59346881>Splitting pult to make the meta appear healthierI'm noticing.
>>59347050This build is based and slutbunny pilled btw.
>>59347219give me one reason why this wouldn't work
i take it mega darkrai ex will shake up the dragapult meta?
>>59347428It will do absolutely nothing, however Hide n' Sneak rips a gaping hole in dragapult.
>>59346882I mean it can ohko pult with a lillies clefairy on the bench.
>>59347428It won't be any good until after rotation when pult is gone
>>59347428It's a worse Absol and that already fell out of the meta.
New prize packs series finally revealed. No ace specs lol
>>59347643Which sucks because Absolbox was the most fun I had playing this game since I started in 2024
>>59347646Ace specs rotate next year is why. There shouldn't be any H reg
>>59347646It's good because Dragonite and Frosslass are so rare from ASC that these will be cheaper than the ASC versions.
>>59347681>Doesn't have FroslassWell fuck me.
>>59347646The foil pokepads gonna look nice. Hilda and Brave Bangle reprint gonna tone down the prices (they are atrocious around here, if you can even find them).
>>59347714Is Hilda expensive in your area? That seems weird, considering it's been included in the past couple prerelease sets, it should be a lot more common.
>>59347718My country doesn't get prerelease stuff
>>59347718There are a bunch of staples that are very expensive right now. I am surprised they did not reprint JTG Dunsparce.
>>59347714It's worth noting Bangle will only appear as cosmos holo foil so it will likely not drive prices down.
hide n' sneed
>>59347643doesnt seem like it when you can instant ko dragapult if you can get a status ailment on it.
>>59347769Putting 6 counters on pult seems easier considering we have munkidori and toxtricity in the format. oh and the instakill attack costs only 2 energy, not 3.
>>59347769darkrai needs tox for energy so you're accumulating damage anywayabsol has by far the better generalist attack too with the discarding if you don't need to ohko.there's also a lot of mist/fighting energy in format because zam anyway so the ohko's are denied in the first place
>>59347718Its like 3 bucks and there arent many going around. Same for bangle.Dunsparce (the 70HP) and slowpoke (psychic) are like 7 bucks each.>>59347731Fuck
>>59347817I was ahead of the curve on that one.
>7 buck commonswut
>>59347872Out of print card, it was already a bitch to find in bulk bins cause everyone wanted it and scalpers just tossed it away because it wasn't big money chase card.So now we have a supply shortage for people who play the game.
>>59347898Journey together's pretty common in tins and other products they aren't as scalped anymore. Weird to see dun being so expensive Slowpoke I wouldn't worry about as much, there's a 70 hp psychic one in abyss eye which will be the go to one
Is this an unhealthy metagame?
>>59347935Saars do not redeem the meta
>>59347935this jeetlist is not very good
>>59347935>ogerpon/cleffa top tier>no results to back it up>pultnoir over pulthammers
>>59347935Yes considering 90% of that image loses to dragapult
>>59347935>Mega lopunny is do not playYeah okay.
>>59347935>Don't play CincinnoFuck you Rahul, I do what I want
>>59348273Lopunny is based. He likes to sandbag good decks.
>>59348273with slowking getting popular it doesn't look like a good play for any big tournaments.
>>59348344Hypothetically how do you beat Slowking as Lopunny when they have Annihilape? Once Annihilape hits their hand it's basically game over.
>>59348386slowking list will probably copy the 2nd place list which didn't run annihilape but it does seem unfavored unless they can fit in shaymin. slowking can just wipe out their entire board with kyurem easily
>>59348403Fitting Shaymin into Lopunny is trivial if you run the set without Froslass.
>>59348386Lopussy runs 4 mist energy, the real problem is Slowking using a brave bangle.
>>59348476I'm a fucking moron. Thank you.
>>59348344I don't think slowking is gonna become all that popular, it's a meme. 'punny has a good match against pult which is all that matters.
>>59348575the pult matchups look rough, but it least it has ....uhhhhh.....crustle?
>>59348596the numbers were better when it first showed up but I think the pult players have started learning the lines against bunny dundun
>>59346025what do you meanit's only a single retreat, single prize basic who only needs a single energy to get free prizes by sitting on the benchthat's easily punishable
munkidori is overpowered but my deck needs it sorry
>our meta isn't stale look how many different decks we have>so there's dragapult and a DIFFERENT kind of dragapult then ANOTHER variant of dragapult and oh guess what one MORE type of dragapult
Wish me luck in new orleans lads :)
may you not get game losses from your opponents calling judges on you the moment they start losing
My deck isn't very good (Azelf/Uxie/Froslass) but I love that my turns always take less than a minute. I just won a game against a Mega Dragalge player and I spent almost all of it just watching browsing eBay for /tcc/ related items while my opponent played solitaire.
I never concede when I'm losing. I instead take the maximum amount of time possible and try to waste as much of my opponent's time as I possibly can. Serves them right for playing meta slop.
Not surprising but Mega Slutbunny plays poorly into every deck in the meta.
>>59349238I have it afk on a 2nd monitor so it doesn't bother me
>>59349120>My deck isn't very good (Azelf/Uxie/Froslass) >I just won a game against a Mega Dragalge
>>59349435Mega Dragalge is just that bad.
>>59349452That's the joke|
>>59349452Status effects in this game are really bad.They need to be reworked so they still effect pokemon on the bench. Retreating for a condition cure makes it worthless, including with so many energies that just simply exist and negate those effects too.
>>59349674I think TPCi is traumatized from the one time they made them too good and decided to just make them shit forever after that.
>>59349674>Status effects in this game are really bad.All of the 'mons in that anon's deck have low enough HP to be one shot by Dragalge's poison
>>59349452I'm convinced it will be good after rotationsource: revealed to me in a dream
>>59350360>Retreat into lillie's clefairy>oneshot for 3 prizes
>>59349699I mean cool, but if I attach a bubble, mist, rocky fighting.Now you have a 3 prizer that can't do anything because it's primary attack doesn't do damage either.
>Paralysis and confusion stay the same>Sleep prevents you attaching energy to them>Burn reduces the damage by 30 >Poison gains +2 more tokens between turns until the active swaps out or dies >Add freeze which just prevents you from retreating but you can still attack
>>59351298Is paralysis even in the game?
>>59351757Yeah, mega eelektross does it on the second attack as well as some other things.
>>59351757Paralysis stops the opponents pokemon from retreating, but also stops it from attacking as well.Eelektross could be pretty good, the problem with it is the stage 2/1 are so fucking easily sniped and you need the stage 2 to generate energies because the paralysis requires you to discard.
>>59351841Electric in general is just gigascrewed over by fighting. Manectric isn't even bad and they have the 2nd best type special energy now Mew copying attacks will help but it'll still get farmed by all the fighting >Eels will rotate before electric becomes relevant again>Will be even further behind everyone else
