Hello! Firstly, I would say to cut the Iron Thorns package entirely from your list. Without the overabundance of Regidrago or Charizard in the format, Initialization loses a lot of its utility. Even considering those two matchups specifically and other decks like them where Iron Thorns was...

I don't know a whole lot about these myself, but long story short, during covid when prereleases stopped, there was no need for staff promos, as there were no events being sanctioned. If I'm not mistaken, they stopped at Vivid Voltage and continued at Silver Tempest. However, there have been...

I used to play a ton of stall so allow me to suggest an addition of 4 Lillie's Poke Doll and a thick Teammates count in addition to Steven's Resolve. I might even suggest a Koga's Trap since you can loop it via Lusamine and guarantee an out to confusion once it hits the field. I would also...

I feel like I should point out that Black Market does not work if you don't have a Darkness Energy attached to the Dark Pokemon being knocked out.

This card without a doubt is fake. As others have pointed out, the photo quality is low. However, it is clear to see the foil has a dark sheen that real cards don't have, as well as a more mirror-like reflection that real cards do not have. Furthermore, the giveaway that makes this 100%...

You should absolutely be playing some count of Palkia VStar in this deck. You currently have no VStar option (even Forest Seal Stone would function, although pointless with Shady Dealings) and Palk is a very respectable attacker in its own right. Energy Loto is completely pointless when you...

No it will not. Phoebe reads "During this turn, damage from your Pokémon VMAX's attacks isn't affected by any effects on your opponent's Active Pokémon." Specifying Active Pokemon means Phoebe will never interact with targets on your opponent's bench. Even if Mew is active, Bench Barrier is not...

Whenever you were playing in the BW era, was the Garbodor deck you played Sableye/Darkrai/Garb? If it was, something very similar to that archetype in the current format would be Etern Hammers. It's a Dark type attacking deck that plays Crushing Hammers and tries to Ability lock with Power Plant...

Wow a Puzzle reprint but only the first effect. Very Cool!

Now, one more thing I want to mention is that if you feel like taking my advice, but don't know where to go with it, feel free to ask and I can make an untested sample list for you. Though do keep in mind it would be designed for the online tournament meta, which may very well be vastly...

Volcanion Prism Star's Ability is NOT gust. Your opponent chooses what they send up, so it's effectively a Phione that costs an Energy. Now, one of many numerous problems with this list stems from the fact that you built a Standard deck, and put a couple Expanded cards in, rather than really...

Octillery has been tested, and every single player that has had any success with Urshi has cut the card. Octillery's Ability isn't bad by any means, but it's extremely limited in what it can do and quite frankly just too slow and inconsistent. There's no reason to set up Octo when you could have...

Uh oh, you better not argue with The Lucmetal Master or he might write an angry tweet about you

Increase in size. They used the exact same wording when they originally postponed Worlds to 2021. There's effectively going to be a larger worlds with more phases than normal.
