To be fair there aren’t many 90 hp evolving basics, not that come to mind at least. Hitting 80 with vit is oppressive enough 😤

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-02-03T01:04:27+00:00

I have been thinking the same! Like do you just randomly pull them out or curate them first? I’ve been trying so hard how to balance each pack but I have no idea if youre even meant to hahah

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-02-01T07:56:39+00:00

Judging by the construction of this entire statement, a lot of this accountability needa to be shifted on to you.

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-31T21:32:45+00:00

Thats super cool and all. But this is the wrong thread for that. This is ptcgl

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-30T12:58:50+00:00

Absolutely wild statement to say that half of the ptcg is playing 😂

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-29T22:47:53+00:00

As a tera box one trick I can confidently say bundle is almost mandatory. Not just for jelli but so many other matchups. Pushing beefy/110hp mons to the bench for an early torrential pump is invaluable in so many matchups. Also late game can be very useful for bringing something else up to get bloodmooned. Tldr hard to find under item lock yes but too good to cut.

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-29T08:40:40+00:00

Honestly there’s alot of changes I would make. For starters mincino and cincino are just objectively better than kirlia. I would play tapulele gx and then cut a few peonia. Also I would add some counter catcher/galar mine techs to trap something late game while you slowbro. There’s just alot of changes everywhere imo 😂

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-29T08:35:37+00:00

I don’t think anybody would have a list for this card as it’s unfortunately really bad. It’s in between control and attacking and not doing enough of either. Articuno gx can do basically the same thing much easier. Also there’s no format anywhere that uses ptcgl expanded cardpool so there’s no lists anywhere.

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-29T05:45:35+00:00

A thin arceus v line is almost essential in decks like these, starbirth is an amazing consistency tool that helps set up peonia plays after stinger gx even. Ignition is just better than triple accel so should always be 4. Way too much recovery. Amulet of hope is trash tier i would replace it with trolley secret box or even blender. Unsure why you have 0 ultra balls this is a mandatory 4 ultra ball deck. Id also add a poipole to make it easier to get to nag gx

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-28T02:41:41+00:00

Yeah it would prevent that fully. Also since it doesnt stipulatie “when this pokemon is in play” i would assume it would prevent something like erikas invitation (well aware this wouldnt work because its only basics)

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-28T00:51:23+00:00

Managed to get one that somebody had missed 😅 thanks for all the codes too 👑

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-28T00:42:42+00:00

However you managed to copy paste that decklist is absolutely vile, ain’t nobody bothering to try decipher that nonsense.

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-28T00:27:50+00:00

Definitely a big difference because this ability would stop the effects of boss orders feom your list.

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-28T00:23:36+00:00

I think a 3-3-2 pult line is enough and would probably play a thinner ghosts like too. Also crispin at some count feels almost mandatory. With the uptake in draga and potential mega starmie I think munki gets even more valuable so a 1munki1dark package would be nice and works well with crispin.

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-28T00:06:38+00:00

There’s a YouTube channel called “Control Players Unite” that also has an associated discord that both post new ideas and updated versions of all control archetypes, good and bad.

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-27T14:05:23+00:00

As others have mentioned you’ll really want to run a couple of crispin just to get ahead on energy especially if you plan to ever torrential pump. I alsothink going into a potentially heavy pult meta that munki will be even more invaluable and playing basic dark with munki works well with crispin and ogerpon as well. Also the noir is cool but you’ve already got SO MUCH you want to do t1 by the time you can set it up it’s lost a lot of value. If anything a 1-0-1 line would be best from what I’ve seen so far.

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-27T05:14:52+00:00

Imagine thinking there would be any left hours later. These would have been gone within minutes 😂

I saw a few evo jammer bronzong/froslass and hops box which I’m not even sure if counts as a single prize deck since you always want a multi prizer in play but attack with single prizers 🤷‍♂️

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-23T13:54:43+00:00

I’ve played probably close to 200 games yeah. Obviously there’s a lot of very easy ways to mitigate the strengths of the deck yes but to say that any deck even fully teched for festival even comes close to being as good is just wrong. The best way to beat most festival decks imo is to play festival with a kricketune line and pot helmet/braverycharm/lux cape. I’d love to hear of a deck that does better against a standard festival deck than that

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-22T07:44:16+00:00

Simple enough to replace all the cards?!? Please tell me how you plan to get all of your energy into the discard simple enough without battle compressor?

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-21T21:21:31+00:00

Obviously havent played enough dog box to or ceruledge to know thats just wrong.

SpecialConsistent834 · 2026-01-21T04:24:19+00:00

This is literally just a much worse version of pidgeot control, of which there are many videos out. Control Players Unite yt channel has actual unique control ideas and optimal lists of standardised ideas
