FLAME BALL

300px-Artwork_de_Scorbunny.png


Pokémon (16):
  • 4 Cinderace S1H (beatdown)
  • 4 Scorbunny SA (evolution)
  • 1 Heatran GX (beatdown)
  • 2 Ninetales SM9 (control)
  • 2 Vulpix SM9 (evolution)
  • 3 Jirachi SM8 (search)
Trainer (32):
  • 4 Cynthia (draw)
  • 3 Marnie (draw)
  • 3 Rosa (search)
  • 3 Evolution Incense (search)
  • 3 Escape Board (retreat)
  • 2 Flame Crystal (retrive)
  • 4 Rare Candy (evolve)
  • 4 Quick Ball (search)
  • 3 Switch (retreat)
  • 1 Heat Factory Prism (draw)
  • 2 Giant Hearth (search)
Energy (12):
  • 12 Fire Energy

STRATEGY:

Start with Jirachi to search for trainer cards. Bench two Scorbunny and evolve them into Cinderace on the next turn. Discard energy with trainer cards and retrieve them from the discard with Libero. Rosa enables the deck to stream Cinderace while Heartran GX acts as a cleaner who synergizes well with Libero.

Could you use Volcarona GX as additioanl aid for discarding energy? Is it worth cutting the Ninetales down to a 1-1 line or perhaps entirely for those Volc GX?

Hi John InCENAroar,

Thanks for the review. I value Ninetales a lot in this deck since he is a less conditional gust effect which seems to be needed.
