    Discussion Side decking in PTCG; yay or nay?

    Having played Magic myself, I don't think a sideboard could work in Pokémon. There are two main reasons: First, you can go through your deck much quicker in Pokémon. Second, because of Weakness and because Pokémon is more linear, the counters themselves are much more effective. For example, I...

    Discussion Going for Alolan Vulpix T1?

    Hey guys, we only have a few weeks of Brokenvoir left before the Metal Pokémon invade (it probably won't be so bad until the new Solgaleo GX comes out, but I'll be switching decks soon). So, I have a question for you: If you go first, do you search for Alolan Vulpix with Brigette (playing...

    Standard Umbreon/Zoroark (Quick Help Please)

    Hey guys, I need your advice on a decklist for a tournament tomorrow. I have settled down on Umbreon/Zoroark, but I'm still debating whether I should play some of the cards. First, I'll give you my list: Pokemon (19) 4-3 Umbreon GX (SUM) 1 Flareon (AOR) 3-3-2 Zoroark BREAK (BKT) 1 Tapu Lele GX...

    Help The "What Deck Should I Play?" Thread

    Thank you for your suggestion, but I don't really like playing Gyarados that much. I know it's a very strong deck, especially with Machoke, but I don't like to run Maxie's since rotation hit Battle Compressor and - more importantly - I don't own Team Magma's Secret Base. I also thought about...

    Help The "What Deck Should I Play?" Thread

    Hey guys, I need your recommendation for my local tournament this weekend. Basically, it's going to be a small League Cup, mostly with people I know. These are the confirmed decks: Vileplume/something (probably either Trevenant GUR or Decidueye GX) Umbreon GX/Zoroark Espeon GX/Garb Drampa...

    Where is the Card Dex Located?

    I can't find anything online. In the Worlds Competitor Info Packet it says that I have to use the card dex when playing with cards in foreign languages. But where is that card dex? Thank you for your help PlinfaTheBest

    Trevenant BREAK

    Which Trevenant variant does best in Standard? So far, I have seen four different options: -with Battle Compressor and Speed to reach the T1 Wally as often as possible -with Hammers for more disruption -with some support Pokémon (Aegislash, Gengar EX etc.) to have a higher damage output -with...

    Discussion Which M-Manectric EX Variant Plays Better?

    I forgot that one, thanks! The logic behind the Vileplume variant is that M-Manectric is not affected by Item lock that much once it sets up.

    Discussion Which M-Manectric EX Variant Plays Better?

    Hi everyone, I had some new thought about my meta and I halfway concluded on using a M-Manectric EX deck (partly because I don't need to borrow that much cards). I brought it down to two lists as I feel the others are not so good in my meta, but I will list them anyway. Here are my thoughts...

    Discussion Counter to Greninja BREAK?

    Hi everyone, I noticed that my meta is playing a lot of Greninja BREAK decks at the moment. As usually, I want to find a counter deck for that. These are the decks I found so far: M-Sceptile EX: Autowin if you get two M-Sceptile EX out. I sadly don't own those, so I have to find another deck...

    Discussion Lucario Fates Collide

    It won't be that good until Captivating Pokepuff gets printed. Then we have that and Target Whistle so our opponents Pokémon are only safe in the deck and in the prizes.

    Help The "What Deck Should I Play?" Thread

    Hi everyone, as you may have noticed, there are so many really competitive decks out there with great fun potential. Now there are some tournaments coming up and I need a nice deck to play as I slowly get bored of playing YZG over and over again. Because of BKP, I don't know my local meta...

    Discussion Trevenant BREAK Discussion Thread

    This has nothing to do with any previous posts, but I want to mention that you MUST play 4 stadiums if you just think of attacking with Silent Fear. Otherwise the Manectric/Jolteon/Water/Stuff matchup is just terrifying *smiles while playing Rough Seas*.

    Yeah, I would like to have your deck list because you seem to know the deck quite well.

    Discussion Trevenant BREAK Discussion Thread

    Hi everyone, I recently thought about playing Trevenant BREAK, as I enjoyed my rogue Gourgeist/Meowstic back in the day. Then I thought about the Dark matchup and immediately scrapped the idea. But I really like the deck, so I ask: can Trevenant do anything besides going first and hoping for T1...

    Discussion A Heart for Moles - Dugtrio in the Current Meta

    Hi everyone, today I wanna ask you what you think about Dugtrio, the best mole of all time. I personally don't consider Dugtrio a Tier 1 deck, but I think there are some local metas where it can shine. Think about it: it has all kinds of support, like the fighting support and Eeveelutions (it...

    Ruling Espeon EX and Maxie's Hidden Ball Trick?

    If my opponent has a non-Basic Pokémon brought on the field by Maxie's Hidden Ball Trick on his bench and I use Espeon EX's Miraculous Shine, does that Pokémon stay on the field or does my opponent put it into his or her hand? For example: I attack with Espeon EX and my opponent has a Gallade on...

    Collecting How to Get a Solid Trade Binder?

    I usually don't buy boosters, only the singles I need for my decks. But because I'm a Senior, I get boosters form tournaments at a solid rate. That's another point I forgot to mention: I'm on a VERY limited budget. I just earn around $40 through pocket money and some private tutoring per month...
