So, I personally prefer acerola over max potion in these decks (because you don't have that much energy). But max potion is definitely a good card here.

Buzzwole is the tech that could be changed. Few options: mime, latios, and koko.

Here is the new list after testing. ****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ****** ##Pokémon - 19 * 4 Zorua PR-SM SM83 * 1 Zoroark BKT 91 * 4 Zoroark-GX SLG 77 * 1 Buzzwole-GX CIN 104 * 3 Rockruff GRI 73 * 2 Lycanroc-GX GRI 138 * 1 Mewtwo EVO 51 * 3 Tapu Lele-GX GRI 155 ##Trainer Cards - 32...

So, I took out one float stone and added a third copy of acerola, because I think it is pretty crucial for 2hko decks.

This list is based on Ryan Sablehaus' list, and I made several changes. Tell me what you guys think! ****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ****** ##Pokémon - 19 * 4 Zorua PR-SM SM83 * 1 Zoroark BKT 91 * 4 Zoroark-GX SLG 77 * 1 Buzzwole-GX CIN 104 * 3 Rockruff GRI 73 * 2 Lycanroc-GX GRI 138...

I forgot to say that when going up against basic decks, I usually just try to power up a Necrozma from the very start and finish off with meowstic later.

Here is the list I've been playing for a while. Instead of garb, this list plays zoroark, which makes the deck more consistent and helps you find what you need. (I think one problem with spread decks is that you need to find all the pieces to complete the combos) I hope this would help. Good...

I have tried several games with silvally, but I feel it just does the same thing as float stone and switch and it takes up bench space.

I feel 14-15 energy is fine as long as you only use energy when needed, especially when you have super rod in deck. But one copy of energy retrieval could definitely be a good inclusion.

That is quite interesting, especially when marshadow can equip fighting fury belt, but I feel 210 damage is relatively achievable in most volcanion deck. Maybe I will test a few games with that. Thank you for the idea.

Well, one change I made so far was to change 1 guzma to brigette, because I prized brigette three games in a row and couldn't get a single noibat on turn one because of that lol.

I've considered brooklet hill, but I feel it is actually not that necessary. With draw supporters, you can usually get at least 1-2 volcanion ex in the first several turns. And that is all you need in most of the cases. If I were to play brooklet hill, I will add starmie line instead of energy...

Sure, I will test rainbow a little bit.

I considered rainbow energy too, but I feel 6 darkness works just as fine after testing for a several games.

I think this deck has a good matchup against ability decks (zoroark etc.), simply because with item lock, your opponent will not be able to get rid of that float stone on the garbotoxin. ****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ****** ##Pokémon - 18 * 4 Noibat BKT 132 * 3 Noivern-GX BUS 141...

I think metagross is an okay choice in the format, but not too great. First of all, the volc matchup is still hard, just because your opponent can easily knock out your stage 2 metagross. And in order to black ray, you need to set up your metagrosses, which seems like a long process. Second, I...

Especially when most of the people play psychic kirlias now. I don't see it being useful in most cases.

I would say it is not that necessary, because you can hold your gx attack for the last several prizes.

Make sense. Never thought about that.

So this is more like a discussion. I am wondering what you guys think about volcanion in the current meta. Also, what kinds of changes should be made? I think volcanion definitely has some potential currently, because it has a good matchup against silvally metal and golisopod. Also, as long as...
