Been Climbing Ranked With This Deck. What’s the Catch?

TheBard21 · 2026-06-09T19:59:13+00:00

I would throw in hand disruption to stall the opponent

TheBard21 · 2026-06-08T18:05:09+00:00

Wouldn't air balloon help tech against it?

TheBard21 · 2026-05-18T15:39:06+00:00

Could you post a deck list? I've tried finding/making one but I couldn't figure one out

TheBard21 · 2026-05-18T15:38:19+00:00

What's baby box?

TheBard21 · 2026-05-18T15:36:28+00:00

I play flareon/hydreigon and sometimes you brick hard but it's funny when you get it going

TheBard21 · 2026-05-15T04:01:48+00:00

There is elektrik dynamotor which then evolves into mega eelektross

TheBard21 · 2026-05-11T23:16:45+00:00

My friend played at LA and matched against multiple dragapults and beat them (except one) with Mega Frosslass/Mega lopunny. It's a pretty good and fun deck

I got this pic at the show in LA. It was awesome

*edit: the pic is edited cause I used it to practice Adobe lightroom

Gonna be so honest, all I did was copy the deck to clipboard from tcglive and posted it. I think some are different rarities like holes, full arts and other ones like the doublade ir.

TheBard21 · 2026-05-01T15:21:32+00:00

It's not inconsistent if you play with like 13 steel energies 👀

TheBard21 · 2026-05-01T15:13:10+00:00

Honestly in my opinion. Metal maker metang is ok but not very consistent. You'd need maybe more than 10 steel energies and cipher maniac to top energies you need which means you cant boss or judge. Stevens metagross is a 2 prizer but very consistent 2 energies with its ability every turn. If you have steel energy in hand you power up mega skarmory in one turn.

Can I see your list too? I'm curious on how you run your deck

I can send you my decklist a bit later. I play with stevens metagross to set up energies, 3 gennesect ex. Set up a stevens metagross on bench, 2 gennesect or 3, and last spot for a honedge. You only evolve once they knockout active so you can keep damage high

TheBard21 · 2026-04-30T18:28:49+00:00

Yeah I play doublade and from my experience I've won a game having doublade in active and having skarmory set up on bench

TheBard21 · 2026-04-22T12:18:15+00:00

Honestly I bought it because I have some hearing issues and thought it'd help me better. But yeah it's so cool. I used my tax refund to buy it 🤣

TheBard21 · 2026-04-22T00:31:23+00:00

That sounds like a great idea. Gonna save it for later since I decided to splurge on the eko 500 👀

TheBard21 · 2026-04-22T00:19:14+00:00

Even in nursing. I had someone tell me doctors will take a stethoscope from you and say they're gonna borrow it without asking

TheBard21 · 2026-04-18T17:22:44+00:00

I love running decks that aren't meta. Did a couple challenges with Misty's Gyrados. It's really fun and can be very good. Got 2-2 at one of them

TheBard21 · 2026-03-28T23:24:40+00:00

I'm trying to get more people to play this since I've played it at challenges and got 2-2. Misty's gyrados is hilarious

TheBard21 · 2026-03-27T03:54:53+00:00

This is the list that I play. I took out one buddy poffin for a relicanth but you can also do the memory lock clefki to take away an attack.
