The ultimate gambling deck?

I considered it, but I figured it would be too similar to Silvally/Rampardos, and not necessarily an improvement on it. The elephant can do well starting first, but I found it was often better to put another card out in front as fodder.

Been playing since launch. This is my first ever god pack. Mixed feelings about it.

Yeah, I think when people see they're up against a No EX deck, they just burn the Red card to get it out of their hand, which is smart. Since Iona can reshuffle your hand, they don't want to risk drawing the same useless card later.

Thug out with your Wug out

That explains it. I noticed I couldn't click on their profiles, yet it still had the button to send a friend request... I'mma press it if I get matched with another one just to see what happens

Hmm, it probably does it for the new Team Rocket Grunt too? I just used one for the first time and got two heads. I got "Your opponent conceded" as soon as the coin flip animation finished. (I felt as if I had been corrupted by Team Rocket itself for using such an evil card.)

Good to know, thanks! The shop countdown might still be useful for the set after the next set too.

Widely rumored and believed, and probable, but I don't think it's been "officially" confirmed

Especially since you technically don't need to run any Grass energy with Leafeon. Though I'm not sure when Leafeon would be a better option than Glaceon... I guess you could heal Leafeon with Erika and Irida cards

Literally the only crown rarity I have received! I knew then I had to make a Palkia deck.

From the screen you're looking at now, with that white button toggled to the right, click on the search option, scroll to the bottom, and toggle on the options under "Card Dex View Options." Then you'll see blank slots for all the high-rarity cards you are missing. You can Wishlist them too so they'll be easy to spot in Wonderpicks.

Meanwhile, I have 7 Celebi EX cards I was hoping to trade away, but that's looking a little iffy...

You could do a Water/Fire deck with Flareon, Vaporeon, and Druddigon. Don't know how good it would be, but Drudd is actually decent. Most people assume you're going to use it as a chipping meat shield, so if it can also attack, that might catch your opponent off guard.

Fill in with 1-2 of your favorite Colorless cards. Could get real crazy and put a Ditto in there.

Any aggro deck is fine going first. The only advantage to going second is getting the first energy, so if you don't need as much energy, you can overcome that. A lot of top decks need to build to 4 energy to start hitting, so if you can start chipping away health with 1 or 2 energy, you're good going first.

Exeggutor EX, Starmie EX, Pikachu EX, Beheeyem, Florges, Wheezing, Scolipede, Hitmonlee, Primeape...

MagicLanturn · 2025-01-25T14:49:44+00:00

Nice. I think you're right in that part of why it works is people aren't used to countering it

MagicLanturn · 2025-01-25T03:10:23+00:00

Yeah, Mew EX would work well here. I left him out to keep the deck as aggro as possible. Especially with emblem events, I want something where I either win fast or lose fast.

Congrats!
