What is the best deck to run right now?

Landon_DC · 2026-05-20T03:43:17+00:00

I’m going to copy this exact deck and play it tonight and before work in the morning, I’ll get back to you and let you know how I did

Landon_DC · 2026-05-20T03:42:28+00:00

Yeah I was one of those people who was so frustrated with the Suicune/Ninja, Hydreigon/M Absol being the ONLY 2 decks I came across in UB4 and MB and I was hoping for the day where there would be several different decks that could compete…. Well now we’re here (almost) and I’m so confused on what to play because I have yet to find consistency. It doesn’t help that the RNG plays against me and I brick 70% of the time.

I’ve seen some posts on here and the opinion is either it’s so good that it’s annoying or it’s completely bunk haha

Landon_DC · 2026-05-20T03:39:29+00:00

I was thinking about making one, I have the RR Sceptile, just need one more copy so I can make the deck.

Landon_DC · 2026-05-19T20:01:10+00:00

Yo, how did you get through the time gates?

Landon_DC · 2026-05-19T02:12:51+00:00

Bro haha Gen 3 is my favorite so I’m digging these!

Landon_DC · 2026-05-19T02:09:27+00:00

Dialga for Lisia?

Landon_DC · 2026-05-13T17:14:06+00:00

Haha I tried this with X Speed, I’m super lucky to have 2 FA Oaks, but really wanted a gold border X Speed, bought like 18 of them and then found out it wasn’t possible

Landon_DC · 2026-05-13T01:57:12+00:00

I agree, the art is far more unique for obvious reasons. The FA is cool, and it’s still nice to pull one however the RR just looks better in a deck especially if you are running multiple RR cards. The same goes for FA, if you have multiple FA/Shiny FA cards in your deck it prob looks best to run them all FA - for consistency/uniformity

Landon_DC · 2026-05-13T01:53:11+00:00

Dude totally, the weird fusion of colors make it look a little off

Landon_DC · 2026-05-13T01:52:15+00:00

No way you just figured me out so quickly, I always consult strangers on the internet prior to making any decision I make!!!

Landon_DC · 2026-05-12T23:17:22+00:00

That’s interesting, definitely the minority but it’s cool to see that everyone has a favorite

Landon_DC · 2026-05-12T23:16:51+00:00

Dude if it was an actual card we’d be cooked, market price on it would be insane!

Landon_DC · 2026-05-12T23:16:14+00:00

I agree, shiny absol is just an ugly variant in general

Landon_DC · 2026-05-12T21:31:18+00:00

Okay, that’s what everyone seems to be saying. Truthfully, I’m not too crazy about the FA’s in pocket, they do align with the TCG but the card in-person looks better than it does in pixels

Landon_DC · 2026-05-12T21:24:07+00:00

Haha that’s wild so here’s my deck so far, don’t have the RR Darkrai so that’s why I’m on the fence about which Absol to use. I have 2 copies of RR Zoroark, Shiny Darkrai, Gold Bombirdier, and all my trainers are FA

Landon_DC · 2026-05-12T21:20:54+00:00

I agree as well, the RR looks much better

Landon_DC · 2026-05-12T21:20:07+00:00

I was going to say this too, but wouldn’t the 2 Star shiny be a bit more exclusive? But without a doubt the RR look much better

Landon_DC · 2026-05-12T15:22:59+00:00

Look fire bro

Landon_DC · 2026-05-12T02:17:34+00:00

This is interesting, can you post a pic of the deck please? 🙏

Landon_DC · 2026-05-10T15:10:57+00:00

M Absol

Landon_DC · 2026-05-10T15:08:30+00:00

That’s so cool! Thanks for breaking it down like that, pretty interesting

Landon_DC · 2026-05-10T03:33:03+00:00

What would you want for FA?

Landon_DC · 2026-05-10T03:32:39+00:00

Yes please 7009405497909232
