I do indeed, but thank you for the offer. Definitely looking to bump up the Rainbow Energy count, could maybe swap a Super Scoop Up for an Acerola? Taking your supporter for the turn arguably a little less worse than potentially nothing at all... shall tweak it out.

For sure on the Energy Loto / tools, and I take your point on Sycamore, shall work that in. Definitely with CrownAxe on the "control" of Nihilego GX, but Poison Barb is definitely something I'll try to squeeze in when I have some. Similarly, the Raticate choice is because of the immunity, but...

Thank you, more Nihilego GX is probably a good idea, and I have noticed Evosodas creeping up with no use in the late game. Shall definitely look at shuffling things around. Thanks for your detailed suggestions, I would hope never to attack with Nihilego GX as you say, just nice to have a...

Hello everyone! Whilst I've been browsing the forums for a while, I recently moved to a place where the TCG scene isn't too active. Thankfully I'm now getting my fix online, and was hoping to get your assistance with this deck I'm running. It seems to be serving me well thus far, but any tweaks...

SECRET RARE ENERGY?! Goodbye bank balance. There are so many interesting abilities here, hopefully there's something printed soon to prevent Garbodor (and now Alolan Muk) ruining all the fun. Despite all gorgeous cards, and interesting new mechanics and whatnot, the secret rare prints are...

I don't really have much to contribute here... other than this is possibly my favourite thread ever. As someone who constantly wound people up by playing two of the decks mentioned in this very thread (Doublade / Ariados and Noctowl / Vileplume) at local tournaments - partially because they're...

I just felt that Float Stone offers the same as Switch, but is always there instead of being usable just once. So with a lack of tool removal, you could just pop it on your Ariados / Shaymin EX and leave it there, so your opponent wouldn't be inclined to Lysandre it out for the purpose of...

This Beedrill does seem pretty fun, and I wouldn't mind running it myself, hence I have a couple of ideas for it which I'll share now: 1. Shaymin EX: Firstly, I'll be that guy: SHAYMIN EX WILL MAKE YOUR DECK GREAT, AND WHO CARES ABOUT HAVING MONEY ANYWAY?! It really will though, and with stuff...

I'm currently trying to make this deck work, although it's all in my head because I have zero cards online and no time to play in person, but my intial thoughts are definitely to run it in Expanded because of the access to the previous two Pyroars with great abilities, and of course Blacksmith...

I don't really rate Clawitzer for Houndoom because the energy requirement is so easy to manage as it is, but I can see where you're coming from. I'd also say that just the one Parallel City seems a little lacking, could maybe ramp up the count and include some Scorched Earth as well for draw...

I'm currently theorising on a Dark Raticate deck, as the Super Fang + Umbreon EX's Endgame combo seems like amazing fun going into a season where Mega EX decks look to be pretty prevalent. This also opens up the options for including Zoroark and non-EX Yveltals for some versatility. I'm also...

I recently tried to include Shiftry in my M Sceptile EX list because of the awesome ability, awesome counter attack to M Rayquaza EX, and being an alternative non-EX attacker. Pretty sad therefore that I missed the chance to provide some advice on this deck. I do have one thing to suggest...

Yay for numbers (although I'm not too hot on the statistics thing)! My view has always been that Talonflame is not worth it, because if you don't start with it then it's somewhat of a waste, and if you do start with it and go second your opponent can just hit the N and ruin your day. Although...

I guess Ampharos could serve as a decent partner for BREAKthrough / Generations Gengar in place of Crobat? Greninja XY probably serves as a better replacement partner, but after rotation when they're both gone Ampharos could step into the spotlight. Talking particularly about 2017, the loss of...

Whilst perhaps not the most efficient solution (it takes an extra evolution and can't be searched out by Level Ball), Golduck BREAK seems like the obvious solution due to the exceptionally similar Ability. Failing that, perhaps spamming Mega Turbo and Max Elixir is really the best choice, which...
