Hey yall. I posted a similar thread in the Competetive TCG section. I played Jirachi before but I feel like Greens is the better counter meta pick and I think it will do better against the good decks in the meta. I provided 2 lists for my builds. You don't need to give your opinion on both but pick the one you think will perform better I guess lol. Thanks you guys!

I'm not sure of the Mewtwo UNB75 in the Green's list, I know it's a guaranteed Welder (or Green's) for next turn, but you don't have a way of searching it and it's then prize bait on the bench.

Overall I'm a fan of Jirachi, but you have to be very careful how many 1 prize basics you play down as more than 2 means you're liable to get gazumped with only 1 Reshizard going down. That would leave you with room for only 1 Jirachi and 1 Volcanion on the field over the course of the game which doesn't feel great. It's easy to forget about the prize math now that Guzma is out, but there are still ways of gusting so it's important to take into account.

Based on that I would say Green's is probably the most reliable build.
