Really, the only metal deck that I think has hope is stakatakaMore fairy support yet again. My Metagross and other metal type decks don't mind it.

We'll have to play around with it, but one idea would be Sceptile GX with Venusaur (SLE). You have to move an energy, but then you are setting up a bench Pokemon, and one energy if Venusaur is on the bench is an easy set up for the 130 hit.Now I'm probably being extremely biased here but I LOVE Sceptile GX. I think that 130 for 2 (and yes you do have move an energy but you can set up another Sceptile). The first attack can get rid of Beast Energy, DCE, Counter Energy etc. Oh, and did I mention Celestial Storm Sceptile so you don't even take damage form Buzzwole. The Grovyle helps out as well with the ability, and Sceptile's 1 retreat helps a lot. Probably a biased score for my 2nd favourite starter, but I give this an 8/10.

Metagross, same thing, bulky and clunky. Overall, Scizor might be the only chance. It’s not that bad, however.I still have hope for Metagross and Scizor to do alright. Dusk mane hasn't failed me...yet...
How about...celestial storm sceptile? It would have a similar attack as Rayquaza, but for only one energy, and 20 damage. The energy transfer would also make it immune to ultra beasts.We'll have to play around with it, but one idea would be Sceptile GX with Venusaur (SLE).

Maybe I'm off in my thinking, but it's an idea. Maybe a clunky one. What would be a basic Pokemon you'd want on deck to move energy to? Shining Genesect?
Here's what we have so far (minus Gardevoir because we don't know that number yet), so it looks like the only chance for Swampert is if it's Fighting-typeCould anyone please update me on the set list so far? Is there any chance of getting a Swampert GX?

I'd be shocked if we didn't. There is only room for another 2 supporters max, and that'd mean no stadium card in the set.I would love a Mina FA.
The expanded format is extremely fast-paced, and I don't think that attaching 1 energy for your supporter for the turn is really gonna help much, especially when Darkrai can do the same with a trainer card. I do think Xerneas could be a very strong deck in expanded with the tools it already has, but Mina is not going to really help it when you could be getting a fresh hand that might have more max elixirs and Pokemon that you need.Actually, that might be good in expanded, a xerneas break deck with Mina, fairy garden, xerneas prism and xerneas gx
