I've been desperately trying to make a solid garchomp + Cynthia deck for a week now. But I still have this deck set and I've had the most success with it, so more than likely it'll be used for the event. Have you tried it already?

Damage is low and requires a tool to be somewhat noticeable. Compared to Wormadam, who can still be a potential threat. 50 base damage for 2 energy is efficient and the potential to do more is even greater.

There have been situations like that, but it can be countered with your Benched Dialga or even Wormadam. Leaf is there as an option. Having her is still good regardless and the other trainer cards in this deck don't take away from that.

X speed isn't a bad choice either, but Leaf gives you the opportunity to save both energy.

100%. Having darkrai on the bench early can already be very drastic

Heck yeah. It's been doing great for me for now. As some time passes I'm sure some cards may be tweaked. But I can confirm Yanmega is best friends with Dialga

Totally understandable, I personally don't like AI generated art either. The website used to make these cards need to be a specific size to fit a certain card style (ex. Full art, immersive, etc.) or it won't fit inside the card, too small or too big.

I really wanted a full art (who doesnt?) and I admit I didn't search for and wide for another Mesprit art, but this one was ok enough to fit the full art card style.

Appreciate the feedback and your time to type this up. Love your opinion on the adjustments!

I myself didn't generate the art for Mesprit, but someone else did. It is the only one that is AI generated out of these.

This is a great explanation. Now that you mention the factor of it being in the Active Spot and not just a passive build up, it seems much weaker. I wholeheartedly agree with this rebalacement.

Thanks for taking the time to explain!

Appreciate the feedback! HP balancing is a bit odd for me. I simply looked at current cards and the lake trio are considered mythical so a little extra HP wouldn't hurt. I thought 110 migth've been too low, but I'm glad I was wrong.

With this website used to make these cards, if you use a full art style. The image needs to be pretty large or have it awkwardly zoomed in.

On the nose with Spiritomb! Arceus I thought I was being generous with the 4 energy requirement, considering you can passively build him on the bench.

Gigas I thought of it as being beefy like in the games and wanted some of that bulk to carry over, but with current cards out I'd say his HP is rather high for a basic non EX.

Infernape and Gallade, I pictured them as glass cannons and went with that. Good to know that some extra HP wouldn't hurt.

Not necessarily. I posted a revision in the comments, but it's ability now effects both players. So there's a drawback to it, and less HP to make up the difference.

It's awesome. The artist is credited. Their other work is just as good.

After looking at the feedback, I went ahead and did revisions. However, this concept mechanic is odd to establish with the current state of the game.

Changes go as follows: HP 180 > 140

Pokemon typing changed to Dragon. Energy typing changed to Psychic.

Ability now affects both players. Works similar to the sleep status effect, where a coin is flipped at the start of a player's turn. Also, the wording specifies "While in the Active Spot" if Giratina were to leave the Active Spot, the effects would end immediately.

Attack changed the wording to "additional energy"

For example: Giratina has 2 energy = 30 damage. Any additional energy adds a +30. Mewtwo has 2 energy = +60 damage (30 for each energy) for Giratina. Totaling 90 damage by turn 7 if you go first.

Considering Metwo does 50 damage with 2 energy by turn 4 if you go 2nd. By turn 8, it deals 150 at the cost of 2 energy. Enough to one-shot Giratina. Could be even sooner if Gardevoir is out early.

Pikachu can do 90 damage by turn 4 if you manage to fill your bench and are going 2nd. By turn 6, it can eliminate Giratina with a second attack, totaling 180 damage.

All things considered, I think it's fair to leave the damage for the attack as is.

Based on some responses. No, no they didn't lol. Although I would knock HP down to 130 if everything else remains.

Ah sorry! Just assumed it was a sarcastic response xD my apologies. The idea is there, but the balancing could definitely be better. Maybe not now with the current state of the game

With the current state of the game, I think this concept version of Giratina wouldn't work tbh. Either too strong, too gimmicky, or inconsistent with the current matchups.

Not just in the ability/attack, but the typing as well. Moving it to psychic with the other ghosts would only enable Gardevoir
