    Yveltal-EX/Xerneas/Aromatisse/Slurpuff

    If it only had one usable attack (#2), you'd have a point, but even then, it's a non-EX attacker that attacks without discarding an energy (both things could be important late game). It also makes for a nice starter. Consider it like a slightly different 4th Xerneas. While a lot of things...

    Yveltal-EX/Xerneas/Aromatisse/Slurpuff

    Needs 1 professor's letter. Helps to get off that T1 Geomancy with Skyla in hand (and in your case, also to get the basic dark). Otherwise, looks good.

    Counter All the Things! - Fairies/Goodstuff

    ^ probably best. Flareon is an option for a Heat Tackle OHKO, or Vengeance depending on the discard pile. Also makes your Leafeon more consistent if you go 2 - 1/1. On the topic of Eeveelutions, you might want to try one of the two Espeons. Solar Revelation one counters Gourgeist & Accelgor...

    PokéBeach Community Decklist #8: Darkrai/Hydreigon

    -1 Catcher +1 Random Receiver Consistency, with Junk Hunt. Since there are only 11 supporters, running out of draw is certainly a possibility. This attempts to minimize the risk. I'd like to add another, but don't know what to take out. :P Maybe Eviolite, or Sigilyph?...

    THE Durant thread: Durant NV.

    Trying to prevent Vileplume/Goth from coming and blocking Revive is reason enough to seriously consider Archeops.

    THE Durant thread: Durant NV.

    Has anyone considered Archeops? It won't hurt the prize rate, since Archen isn't a basic. If you set Archeops up fast enough, you could prevent an Emboar or Typhlosion showing up. Or you could de-evolve with Seeker if they have no benched basics.

    Ruling Arceus (W) Fastwave - weakness, expert belt?

    50 damage. "This attack's damage isn't affected by Resistance, Poke-powers, Poke-bodies, or any other effects on the defending pokemon." Is it affected by Weakness, and by effects on Arceus such as Expert Belt?

    Ruling Sceptile GE "wild growth" and retreats

    Let's take Leafeon lvX active with Sceptile GE on the bench. Leafeon lvX has a retreat cost of {C}{C}. Sceptile GE doubles the energy provided by grass energy cards on grass types. If I retreat, I can use 1 grass energy card to pay the cost, right? My old rulebook says Double Colorless energy...

    (2) 'CoroCoro' and 'Pokemon Sunday' Reveal New Pokemon's Silhouette! [2/6]

    RE: (1) 'Pokemon Sunday' Airs Soon! [2/6] Upon close inspection, the silhouette looks ... female. Reasons: I see what looks like the edge of a miniskirt on the upper thigh, and the space between legs looks oddly straight. Thin waist. The chest seems to bulge out. The hair is extremely...

    Smoking

    ^ You personally may not be screwed. Different people respond to the same thing differently, so some may be unaffected, while others may develop asthma, or cancer late in life. Secondhand smoke lowers the AVERAGE life expectancy a little bit (IDK how much). But you never know how it'll affect...

    Smoking

    You're taking the wrong approach. You agree that secondhand smoke IS bad for health, correct? Thus someone's smoke encroaches on my rights. I may allow them to smoke and shorten my life, but if I don't, I have every right to proceed in my life unimpeded. Smoking should be banned in public places...
