    Budget Deck

    You could try waiting for Granbull to come out. That doesn't run many supporters (at least the pricey ones like Cynthia) or Leles.

    Discussion State of the meta

    My bad, I mis-remembered what Escape Rode did, assuming the user had control of everything. I see now, so it's more of Lysandre + 1 extra function. Thanks for the help!

    Discussion State of the meta

    What in the meta has changed in the past ~2 years to make Guzma overpowered? Before we had Lysandre which no one complained about, and Guzma is basically a weaker Escape Rope. I haven't followed the TCG in a while and I'm recently considering getting back into it.

    Standard Banette+Vileplume-Double Trouble Lock Deck

    I made a few other changes. I figured Skyla would be more useful than Steven, so I left him out. Thanks for your help.

    Standard Banette+Vileplume-Double Trouble Lock Deck

    When Vileplume get Lysandre'd, I usually let it die and get a second set up. Not really any other way to deal with it. The Pressure Lugia that hits for 60 or 120 if attacking an EX? That's actually a really good idea. What do you recommend using as a switch card? I could use Olympia, but I...

    Standard Banette+Vileplume-Double Trouble Lock Deck

    At one point, I had a 2-2 Zoroark line and 3 DCEs, but that got dropped because my opponent never put enough Pokemon on the bench for me to do damage. I don't see how they would manually evolve if Banette is blocking the opponent's ability to manually evolve their Pokemon. I wanted Banette...

    Thank you very much. What do your recommend spending coins/tokens on? Trade fees? Booster packs? Multi-pack blisters? Sorry for all of the questions.

    Help [Fun] Imakuni? Deck: What Are the Best Songs?

    From a strategic standpoint, you'd want to keep the songs short and simple. Mainly because it will definitely make you lose focus if you have to sing a song, but also because the damage is done AFTER the song is over, so if you're singing a 6 minute song your opponent will have time to react...

    Help Returning Player With Lots of Questions!

    I may eventually spend some cash, but I don't plan to spend a lot. I played PTCGO as a little side thing when I couldn't use my IRL cards, so I know how it works and have a lot of the staple cards like Sycamore, VS Seeker, and even a Shaymin. As far as formats go, I only plan to keep up with...

    Help Returning Player With Lots of Questions!

    Hello! I played TCG semi-competitively last December when Yveltal+Zoroark+Gallade and Night March ruled the land. I then stopped playing and sold all of my cards. I decided I'd like to get back into it, but online with PTCGO. Unfortunately, I have no idea what the meta is, what the current...

    Standard Manectric EX / Lucario EX / Crobat

    Looks very good. One thing I'd say is I recommend lowering your count on fighting stadiums. A lot of decks run only 2-3 stadiums and most run Fighting Stadium anyways (Garchomp, Gallade, Lucario, Machamp EX.) Heck, some decks run zero stadiums.I think you can get away with three. In replacement...

    Standard First Competitive Deck: Giratina EX / Lugia EX

    The format hates special energy. Xerosic, Jirachi, and Enhanced Hammers are huge weaknesses to this deck because it runs only special energy.

    Standard Fighting / Garchomp

    -3 Landorus Really no need for him. Your other attackers have cheap attack costs so you don't need his acceleration. I personally would rather have more consistency with attackers. Garchomp is very weak in terms of health. Focus Sash can allow him to last another turn. You'll need more...

    Standard Lock & Load (Dragalge / Team Aqua Muk / Zoroark)

    One thing I noticed is you have Silent Lab as a one of. Without trainer's mail, I don't see it being very useful since most people play shaymins earlier in the game. I used to have a deck with Silent all as a one-of but I didn't find it consistently enough to consider keeping it. I think...

    Discussion Is Skyla as good as it seems?

    I don't use it too often but I always have it as a one-of in all decks I build. I just love having t he option to get the game changing card I need, guaranteed!

    Standard Frozen in Ice V2.3 (Palkia EX / Kyurem EX / Bronzong)

    I made a big mistake... I don't have any Bronzong so I've been using 2 Electric energy as Bronzong. I didn't know Bronzong can only go to benched Pokemon. Now that I know, I will add Zoroark so that I can Stand In, Metal Links, and then retreat back into Kyurem. This actually solves my problem...

    Standard Frozen in Ice V2.3 (Palkia EX / Kyurem EX / Bronzong)

    Haha Energy Recycler is actually what's in my deck. I just wrote the wrong name. Thank you for the suggestions! I will definitely look into them!
