Since they started appearing in the TCG, they've been using this name scheme for regional-exclusive evolutions, so we have things like "Galarian Runerigus" and "Hisuian Sneasler".
I have no idea why they do that.

>>58885660
wait for a dark stadium or trainer specific for them

This set is actually pretty great overall, my only complaints are piers and mega kang. Mega Kang in particular feels like total powercreep in terms of damage. You’d think our first true suicune counter thats good (fuck off mega venu) would be an electric type, but no its fucking kangaskhan.

Expert Solo Mega Waifu is kicking my ass, help.

>>58885819
It's annoying isn't it? Always starting with Meloetta, Garde shows up early and too tanky to kill and it immediately retreats for free with the stadium and fully heals while a charged up Xerneas kills whatever you had in front

r-tards complaining about the immersive are truly forsaken

Reminder the most value you can get on wonderpick hourglasses is right now to get those 3/4 diamond cards.
Later on the month people will go back to finish older sets after finishing this one, so you'll see fewer of them in your list.
And the faster you get those 3/4 diamond cards, the earlier you start getting 24 hours for 1/2 star picks.

It's only been about 3 days and I've already seen 4 2* WPs for this set (only got the Juggler FA, go figure)
During the last DX set I only saw 1 2* WP

>>58885854
Thanks but I finally got lucky with my Jolteon deck and killed the two stupid ralts before they could do shit.

fire+water+colorless ramp delcatty for salamence? Hopefully it triggers juggler too
Infinitely more work than hydreigon but let's give it a go

>>58885999

>>58886018
Yeah probably
Just tried the delcatty thing and got 6 water energies in a row

I really don't know why the energy order is random. They really do not want people using multi-colored decks.

>>58886047

Deal 40 per turn and Will can be used for either ogerpon's effect or mence's recoil
Don't have fire ogerpon though

I'm trying to make M-Mawile work but it's not easy. The idea here is to open up the possibility of switching out while still retaining the damage potential, which tops at 120 on a fresh switch in with double Aegislash.
Basically
x2 M-Mawile, x1 Magby, x1 Cleffa
x2 Honedge, x1 Doublade, X2 Aegislash
x2 Pokeball, x2 Oak, x2 Rare Candy
x2 Copycat, x1 Steel Apron, space for 2 cards. Cyrus? Sabrina? Maybe it's no Doublade and another Mabgy? It can charge Aegislash if going 2nd.

Tried a lot of cards with Toxtricity ex but it's just not there.
>jolteon
Energy tax is nice but jolteon competes for energy with Tox, no way to cram energy acceleration in a deck that has both.
>Raikou
Thought it could work, but it's too slow for 2 points. Same criticism as jolteon with energy.
>Pichu/Elekid
May be helpful but most of the time these fuckers don't do much, might as well put chingling to annoy my opponent.
>Spiritomb
Perhaps the best combo, either the old or the new has something that helps but ultimately you're giving away 1 point and as with pyukumyuku it's falls off.
>plusle/minun
Lol, I'm sure dena thought this was gonna be meta.
>tapu koko/Zeraora + elemental switch
Safe ways to get energy early however they lack everything else.

What's more is that there is no way of dealing with decks that leave the bench empty, so venusaur ex, blaziken ex and mawile ex can sweep easily. So it's gonna be another set of paying the oricoriozone tax for lightningfags. Maybe Amped Up Toxtricity will be meta. but it's far more likely it will be the side B card for the premiumfags

>>58886244

>oh this card could synergise with this and under those conditions it's decent
>wait this meta card does everything and more by itself
>nevermind
I understand that meta cards are supposed to be the strongest iterations of something, but the degree to which they do is daunting. Especially Dragons which require multi energy cards. After Hydreigon, is there a single reason to use Kommoo or Salamence? Or even anything 3 stage that deals around 130 without a secondary effect?
Because I can't see any reason to
>>58886332
I was exactly trying to build for dude but I can't see a use case besides boosting a bit the gen2 legends deck. Or maybe oh ho dnite

>>58886365
If you're less efficient than Hydreigon or Maltaria you're not seeing play.

>>58886365
I wanted to try mega dnite but I dunno what 3rd energy to pick.

But of course, why wouldn't you stack all of the cancer into one pile.

so how's mega gardevoir? was it overhyped?

>>58886373
yeah i hate this shit so much. why does Salamance have 50% of 50 recoil for 3 energies of which 2 of different types when Rampardos and Hydra exist?

>>58886233
ilima wasn't designed to be used with Mega Kangaskhan. There's a genuine chance the people that designed mega kanga thought the card got rotated out.

I was thinking how else his supporter could have been designed to support Lightning/Darkness cards like Voltorb and Koffing based on his ingame teams and just realized now his juggler gimmick was round Pokemon

>>58886679
Garchomp does the same with less requirements and without killing himself, dont forget element of surprise provided by Cynthia.
Let me remind you it was released ELEVEN (11) expansions ago.

>>58886702
Random battle has an expiry date
Maybe this mode refreshes every season with new hourglasses (which means new players miss out on past random battle hourglasses) or random mode just goes away after this and those hourglasses may or may not return to the main solo mode

>>58886715
I meant these amount of hourglasses

>>58886713
Cynthia is a supporter. If you drew her with Oak that turn, you're only doing 100. If you use Cynthia, you can't also use a switcher supporter.

>>58886665
Nah it's good for baiting Cyrus or pressure them to bring out something stronger to kill it when I choose to generate 1 energy on it out of nowhere thinking I'm gonna retreat into the other Giratina. In that battle he swapped Mew ex for M Gard when Mew could have killed the 20 HP Giratina itself but he was afraid of the Giratina on bench with 5 energy coming in (it all went to Celebi) that Indeedee wouldnt have been able to kill unless he had Red.

pokétrade just because there's an actual website that you can use on desktop too

>>58886969
Pokehub is the actual worst place. The ads are infinite and im not exaggerating. What's even worse are the people because you'll never find a card that isnt just to trade for Oak or Cyrus.

I feel like we are in a tipping point where every new set is more meta cancerous than the previous one.

>>58887180
It's been this way since the Celebi set brother. They do this to encourage you to spend money to get le epic wins against people not spending money. If this game was as predatory as a real PvP Gacha, it would be 100x worse on purpose.

>>58886669
the baseline is now 150 damage with negative effects

we used to have 120 with negative effects but now the power scale has risen

>>58887189
I now understand why they wait 2-3 weeks after every set to turn ranked back on.

>>58887192
It's crazy that Solgaleo got powercrept so hard and fast.

>>58887163
Same. Up to that point I was 100% every solo mission.

I love how steel is supposed to be the bulky type but in reality its water. Suicune and Greninja are impossible for some decks to match up into still

>>58887241
Just like in the main series!

Oh right the main reason Solgaleo ran anything else at all was to deal with the dumb bird

Is there any reason why all these decks use fighting energy? I assume there's supposed to be a fighting mon in these cookie cutter builds, but every time I go against one of these they lose by the 3rd turn so I never get to see wtf they're trying to even cook, and this build has me even more confused.

>>58887356
I think they are assigned fighting by default. Ideally they would use water for irida right?

Am I winning, dad?

>>58887381
Luckycad just dropped Juggler deck

>>58887365
Grass is the default for colorless decks. So someone is manually assigning Fighting. Also Iridia is irrelevant (lol) when these things don't have enough HP to last a single hit from my Beginning Bolt Jolteon, as 98% of these matchups go (sometimes they make it to Jolteon EX instead and have to wait an extra turn before getting oneshot!)

>>58887381
Looks like a win to me. Juggler is a sleeper card that will shine more when people experiment more with colorless decks. Colorless is slept on and M.Kanga is making the archetype way more viable. The ability to work with any other type is cool. Seen M.Kanga in Fire, Electric, and Psychic decks. Going to be fun when we have colorless builds juggling energies around. Weavile is way too weak, it was too weak even when it was first released. So unless you like the card art, it's not going to get any legitimate use in the future. Should have at the very least given it 0 retreat cost or something. Maybe a Pursuit like effect that deals extra damage if they try withdrawing next turn or something. It's just so lackluster - was designed around Darkrai but Darkrai out the gate already had better partners so...

Yea but what does Fighting energy have to do with Jesus? I guess fighting is the "justice" type?

I really tried to make Mawile work but it is just too slow and hits like a wet towel. It is beyond me why they haven't bumped it's damage from 60 to 90.

>>58887440
Same here. I had some good matches but ultimately M-Mawile just doesn't work. It's not bulky enough to sustain continued damage for a solo mon and it's not powerful enough to get a revenge kill.

Looking for new Fantastical Parade Spiritomb. Last card to complete the pokedex

>>58887455
is that new -50 damage tool + perrserker too gimmicky?

>>58887479
I think you get 4 uses max of the pad, and then you may also get the appron first and need it for something that causes adverse effects which then later you can't remove.

>>58887479
Too much shit has to go right for you to make that work, maybe if Mega Mawile started at 120 power instead of 60 you'd have something.
>>58887486
Honestly you might as well run Ogerpon on the bench at that point.

by all means ill keep taking my free wins

>>58887508
Yes i already ran into a deck doing that

>>58887479
What I found from using that tool is that most of the time your opponent will just Sabrina/Cyrus a benched mon and then not only your build up power is reset but your 1-time use tool gets wasted as well.
Its either you play M-Mawile completely solo to avoid that (and get cucked by Oricorio) or you use Aegi to ramp up the base power. Neither work very well.

>>58887564
The poncho only working on the bench is what kills it for me.

>>58887568
It's because it also blocks attacks that they had to make it bench only but it's not like Decidueye or Hitmonlee are common threats

It's not fighting, it's rock. Cause Jesus moved the rock to escape the cave he was sealed in after death. Duh.

>>58887634
Aww, that's cute. You thought they'd make a legitimate counter to their shillmon? This half assed counter is the best they could do. In theory it's good but it's like that stupid ass watering can item that gets rid of fire energies. Too specific of an item to be worth using because it's dead weight in most matchups, and even when you manage to get the matchup where it'd actually be useful it doesn't really do a good job at "countering." I'm actually surprised they didn't also include an item that lets yo bypass the effects of a tool for a single turn (think of it as a single use temp Guzma) or something similar to how Flame Patch completely negates the watering can; but I suspect that'll be in the next patch lol.

Is it impossible to trade for a shiny red gyarados if you don't have a meta card to offer in return?

This is the only card I can trade for it.

Slaking or Snorlax Ex

>>58887825
>>58887828
Uhhhh M-Gardevoir sissys....

>>58887862
leafeon to pump it up and ensure it gets the double damage probably
using it as a bandaid for self-status colorless cards like snorlax and slaking is bad because those cards can already just run comfey and psychic energy without risking 2 points from an ogerpon KO

>>58887862
I fought against one deck that used Goomy for support so Ias forced to overfeed my Pokemon with energy. It also used Leafeon for ramping.

That's what you have to keep in mind when using Alolan Muk at the moment, there's not much support for it and you have to find some niche cards to work with, like Dawn, or wait for more than 1 Dark type trainer card.

3 energy 70 damage move was never going to work unless the ability on the pokemon said, you win the game at the start of your next turn.

Being a stage 1 just makes it worse. Right now it's simply a bench mon for the ability and not something you ever want to actually use. It's absolutely a side deck piece for games 2 and 3 for dark decks to shut down the yellow bird, but Bo1 makes that a useless argument.
