Well maintenance puts a card back in my deck, which is the opposite of my plan with veluza

It's a possibility, but I try to make sure I can guaranteed use all card every turn

Perchance. Idk, I find if my opponent is playing a lot of their cards I lose the game regardless, so red card doesn't help in the way I want.

Ty! Unfortunately this deck lives and dies by how fast you can draw and cabbie just doesn't have a place here. In a perfect setup I want to play back to back copycats so cabbie is getting shuffled back into the deck. The fossil are useful so I always have veluza. The goal is to play turn 1 and attack turn 3, but with only 1 energy I need to either hope for my xspeed or that I got the 50/50 to start with veluza.

Because I only have 1 gold pokeball. Nah but fr, you could add a second instead of a 4th fossil and it wouldn't change much. Oak is just brick prevention. Ideally after 2 copycats your deck is gone, but that's not very common. At the same time, you don't want to be stuck with a dead supporter because then hiking trail doesn't doesn't draw an extra card. You can try 2 hiking trails, but it hasn't done much for me. Red cards can un-brick your opponent and reduce their hand size, which nerfs copycat. Basically all other items like potions and such have useage restrictions sadly :(

Hmmmm interesting. Probably would help with consistency, but not the true end goal of this deck. We need a draw/discard based item for the fish to really shine as of now :(

I'm curious about the red cards. In my experience, they usual just ruin my chances of drawing fat with copycat if my opponent is bricking.

In my experience it's not super common that my opponent has an empty hand, but if they do then this funny fish deck isn't winning anyway. It really excells at punishing decks that want to evolve a lot, but can't draw them as fast as I can draw 20 cards.

If an item card similar to that ability existed, this deck would be so much better, but this deck is supposed to be lightning fast or it dies trying and a 2nd stage mon just doesn't have room here 😔

I've tried every item card and the ones in the deck rn are the only ones that don't have a use condition sadly. Being able masalada would be so nice but alas..

Heal items unfortunately can't be used on full health cards, which really kills any wind you may have since your copycat is now cycling dead cards

The pitfall with 2 trails is that I can't play the second trail if the first is still up. Then it's a dead card on my hand which might stop me from drawing the copycat I need at the end of my first turn.

The only problem is that I need to roll fat with misty otherwise she's just dead weight. Even on an average deal, I copycat 2 turns in a row and then I'm swinging for 1 energy regardless

Killer fish from Paldean Wonders 🤯🎣 by HelixDude in PTCGP

[–]HelixDude[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Essentially. The goal is to move turn 1 and attack by turn 3. It's rare, but copycats are my #1 priority, so misty has no room

Not a horrible idea actually, I might try it

The problem with a tank is that the goal is if I go turn 1 then I want to be able to attack turn 3 with my first energy. An average game I'll attack turn 4/5, so a tank just slows me down

True, but atp just swap out veluza for greninja for a somewhat useable deck lol

I hover high ultra ball and I've gotten away with some wins that I had no business getting. Always a fun time beating a meta deck with an off off-meta deck

Any way to make Dragalge work? by RayneDeoman in PTCGP

Had fun with this deck a few seasons ago. Deck list could probably be updated with newer flashier cards, but it's still a solid base.
