    Standard Double Threat: Galvantula/Bisharp

    This is actually really interesting. Without having ever played it, the one big thing I noticed is your draw supporter line. Since you're running octillery, N is better in 99% of cases than Sycamore, so 4 N 2 Sycamore would be a more ideal line. Also, It'd be a good idea to work in another...

    Alt. Format Mega Venusaur/Sceptile

    I like this idea. I was just thinking about this today actually. I would suggest trying to work at least 2 more grass energies in though. I know you're running a high super rod count, but it can still be a bit of a nightmare if you have no energies to attach from hand, when you'd ideally want...

    Blog To Infinity and Beyond: The Rise of Mega Mewtwo

    I've actually been testing a M Gard/Xerneas Break deck, with 2 PRC megas and 1 STS mega, and i've got to say i'm loving it. Granted, I would still never play weakness policy in it. Honestly, I don't think mega mewtwo will be around long enough in this format to even figure out if STS mega gardy...

    Alt. Format [Future] Budget Lock (Regice/Glaceon-EX/Garbodor)

    Deserving to be played is totally relative to the meta at hand. I can't see much of the last three sticking around. Giratina will probably be around for a bit though, and may be worth teching for. But it'll have to be seen.

    Alt. Format [Future] Budget Lock (Regice/Glaceon-EX/Garbodor)

    You're not wrong about vileplume being a good partner, but it depends on what you want to do with the deck. If you're expecting a lot of greninja, play the garbodor. Otherwise, the vileplume partner is stronger.

    Standard 2017 Water toolbox

    It does lose a ton with the loss of toad, but it's not a complete write off. If you work in jolteon instead of the second kyurem and the palkia, it still stays annoying. I played the jolteon variant of water box at nats, and my only loss was to the guy who was #1 in blue pod at the end of day 1...

    Alt. Format [Future] Budget Lock (Regice/Glaceon-EX/Garbodor)

    Let's be honest with ourselves here. The time of 1-of tech supporters in our decks is beyond limited with the loss of battle compressor. Now, if you're working in a supporter, it's got to be something that is a 2-of, at minimum for consistency, and needs to be relevant enough to warrant that...

    Discussion "Hail King Garb": What Garbodor Means Next Season

    Honestly, I don't see where all the random garb fear is coming from. Yeah, greninja has trouble with it. It can cause problems for Mega Ray. But it's still a lysandre-able target with 100 hp. That's pretty easily OHKO'ed by anything in the format that's not water box/greninja without abilities...

    Discussion Decks with Potential for After Upcoming Rotation

    It's really not that bad of a lock. It takes a wally or a second turn to set up, and is an easy lysandre target at 100 HP. It's a pretty healthy thing for the format, since we're getting ability reliant anyway. There's plenty of non-ability based decks out there you can use to take advantage of...

    Discussion Can Water Toolbox survive without Seismitoad-EX?

    I actually just played a variant of this at Nats, going 4-1-4, losing only to a guy that went 7-0-2. The jolteon variant of this is strong, and toad can be replaced by vaporeon-ex for the 130 attack, but the item lock is definitely where toad shined. The 130 damage is only really relevant in the...

    Japan's XY11: 'Explosive Fighter / Cruel Traitor', CP5: 'Mythical / Legendary Dream Holo Collection'

    Under full details of attacking in the rulebook under advanced rules, weakness is step 3, then resistance is step 4. So you'd do weakness first then resistance. (80*2)-20=140

    Discussion Shed My Skin! Expanded Mew-EX / Shedinja Combo

    I actually played this deck last fall at the Fort Wayne regionals. I definitely had fun with it, but it isn't competitive enough to keep up with the meta. Too slow, and relies on a 120 HP, partially damaged EX to get the job done.

    Standard Glaceon-EX / Jolteon-EX

    We've actually gone over this in a separate thread, and we haven't received an official ruling yet. While you're correct that it isn't an "evolved" pokemon, Glaceon-EX's attack states "evolution pokemon". According to the current rulebook, "Stage 1 and Stage 2 pokemon are also referred to as...

    Standard Fates Collide: Kingdra EX / Magnezone

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but kingdra says "basic lightning energy" so DDE doesn't increase damage dealt :(

    Ruling Glaceon-EX Attack "Crystal Ray"

    Wait, so a maxie/Archie'd stage 1/2 would still count as an evolution Pokemon? Have we gotten a confirmation on that for sure?

    Ruling Glaceon-EX Attack "Crystal Ray"

    So then "evolution Pokemon" should be read as "evolved Pokemon". Thanks!

    Fun The Top 5 BREAK Pokémon

    Luckily, I am a professor haha. Robin is correct in saying that we haven't received an official ruling on it yet since we don't have an English translation though. Once we get the English version, it could be worded completely differently and you could be right though!

    Fun The Top 5 BREAK Pokémon

    I actually had to do some questioning about that myself. The effect says "Place damage counters on your opponent's pokemon", which immediately makes it an effect on the opponent's pokemon. The number of them is the part that is affected by the wobbuffet portion, not the placement effect. It's...

    Fun The Top 5 BREAK Pokémon

    Great list! One thing to note though is that wobbuffet BREAK's attack CAN be nullified by a few different things. Wonder energy is one. There is also a tool from the new set that prevents all effects of attacks except damage done to the Pokemon by attacks. That also negates the placement of...
