I like your deck will definitely try it out I think you could cut at least 1 shaymin though 3 seems to be too much

Having 3-4 Shaymins is really crucial now that N's back in format. Having that extra Shaymin could make the difference after getting N'd with only a Prize or two left.

Have you considered playing a Paint Roller for the mirror, or any other deck with Dimensional Valley for that matter? That way, you could discard their Dimensional Valley to play your own, activating Barbaracle and effectively locking the stadium in play.

Yeah keckleons right you need some way to get rid of your opponents stadium if theyre also using dimensional valley also Phantom force is right on the edge of being rotated out it cause I'm pretty sure there are not any night march reprints so this deck might be only standard for a short time unless we get japans premium collection pack but that would most likely be a few months after the rotation

edit also have you checked out the most recent article about fates collide decks what do you think about that deck compared to this one

Why not a delinquent in the deck. Also, hex should help too.

Hex would not help at all, it ruins the side strategy. No abilities, no use for barbaracal

I would cut 1 Archies and add 1 Town Map
This is because wasting precious space on just Barbaracle via Archie isn't needed so 1 archie is adequate.
Town Map however helps you get your prize cards more efficeniently and set up faster.
How I know, I played Night March for 7 months

True, but allows you to play your DCE for a turn, and if you are stuck, it will really give a helping hand

Lol that's another point without fee DCE drops from your hand you can't do anything so barbaracal imo is the worst partner for night March.

Barbaracle only prevents your opponent from playing Special Energy. And if you really don't like Barbaracle, don't run it, or maybe use Marowak.

Ok, thanks for the advice!

You should maybe try making room for basic lightning or psychic energy. You can night march with one energy with the mew if joltik is on the bench.

I've been testing Barbacle some. I've noticed that he is best played with a mixture of stadiums from 4 to 5. Having multiple different kinds of stadiums + 5 of them in the deck does prevent the special energy drop. Having the same kind of one stadium will create bad match ups, making him worthless. Though I haven't found the right friend combination yet, I think there will be future cards that will help him out a bit.
