Well, I still have a PikaRom list without Jirachi and 'just' 2 PikaRom. I played and won 2 League Challenges with it, but not sure whether that was luck, skill or my deck.
Lists without Jirachi usually play 2 Tapu Lele GX instead. But the more I think about it, the more I'm convinced I have to try a build with Jirachi as well, to be honest. But still with 'just' 2 PikaRom!

That sounds like a good idea, I'll try out some of the top lists with that swap
That looks like a pretty good list. I'll definitely try it out, just curious how helpful Lisia is?
Do you have a list you're willing to share or would you prefer to keep it private?
But yeah Jirachi definitely increases the consistency massively.
Just lists I've came across on the ladder. I haven't built pikarom. I'm not a fan of the whole 3 prizes thing
Ah, ok. I'll search around. I'm usually against the 3 prize thing (zororoc ftw) but I'm feelin a bit of pikarom at the moment so why not
I'm flying the UB zappy flag at the moment.

Pikarom doesn't need Jirachi, frankly; it can use it, but it doesn't need it. Turbo Pikarom can work with just Pikarom, for the most part; Tapu Lele to get a supporter sometimes, but you want to avoid benching that if you can to make it too easy to take out. I like and still occasionally play that version - just going for turn two full blitz (if not turn one).
Jirachi's much more useful in the 'slow' PikaRom (which uses Zapdos and other Pokémon to attack while you work on a plan to get PikaRom out, often with a Tapu Koko <> and some energy switching).
