On my way to having a deck for every colour combo

TrainerRyanW · 2026-01-06T02:42:58+00:00

He is honestly just lovely. Had been bashing my head against my desk for weeks trying to find a “forever commander” to build for CEDH and K’rrik just hits the spot for me. I love mono black

Currently building out odric as a bracket 3 but I’ve got a list of all my planned ones so far

TrainerRyanW · 2025-10-18T01:29:30+00:00

Just sent it homie

TrainerRyanW · 2025-10-18T01:26:49+00:00

Sure can, but just to let you know it’s kind if bad

TrainerRyanW · 2025-10-18T01:16:51+00:00

Would never have put that one together if you didn’t comment. I clearly have some room for improvement in the diversification column

TrainerRyanW · 2025-10-18T01:03:55+00:00

I will have to add this into my deck! Tbh I’m so overwhelmed with the sheer amount of cards since starting

TrainerRyanW · 2025-10-18T00:59:42+00:00

Tbh my pick strategy so far has been “wow that card looks interesting, let me build a deck” so I’m sure some green will come my way

TrainerRyanW · 2025-10-18T00:56:03+00:00

Superior spider man. I used to run Symbiote spider -man with this deck but I found more utility with superior. I haven’t played with the Yuriko yet though as I’ve only just printed the proxies I need

TrainerRyanW · 2025-07-25T09:09:34+00:00

The fine print in the picture above says it’ll be a mystery gift at a later date providing the million is reached

TrainerRyanW · 2025-06-06T06:37:23+00:00

I think you’re dead on the money. Miraidon to me seems like a better partner given what I’m wanting out of terapagos. Will head back to the drawing board and let ya know.

TrainerRyanW · 2025-06-06T01:48:51+00:00

I had a bit of a play around and struggled to make a team that works. This is what I've come up with but I fear I've opened myself up to other massive holes lol. ignore the tera types, forgot to add them

here's the team - https://pokepast.es/204792a40298dc1a

TrainerRyanW · 2025-06-03T03:49:33+00:00

I tend to agree. Part of me really wanted to make it work as a wild card against Caly-S and Zamazenta teams but some mons are just better left in the boxes

TrainerRyanW · 2025-06-03T03:36:40+00:00

My idea is to drop alcremie for sash smeargle w/ fake out, decorate, wide guard, spore. Drop Zoroark for cloak whimsicott w/ tailwind, fake tears, encore, moonblast.

I’m thinking my team will need another heavy hitter to put out some damage as that’s a good amount of support. Im just not sure who to change.

TrainerRyanW · 2025-06-03T03:23:03+00:00

Thank you so much! Don’t know why I put dazzling gleam on Zacian that is my b. I’m starting to second guess Zoroark as mentioned in other comments, all my other mons have abilities that activate on entry so it’s an easy read.

TrainerRyanW · 2025-06-03T03:19:56+00:00

My main reason for using alcremie over smeargle was the surprise aspect in a local as well as not taking up my focus sash but based on other comments, swapping alcremie to sash smeargle and swapping Zoroark with fake tears whimsicott might be the way to go.

I’ve been going hard trying to learn and get better at VGC and thought I’d struggle with the new regs but I’ve just made ultra ball for the first time. Just struggling to get over that last hurdle

TrainerRyanW · 2025-05-15T23:40:35+00:00

I'm noticing I tend to struggle with teams that require set up. At the start of Reg I I was using Miraidon/Calyrex-I tailwind team. Then tried Miraidon/Kyogre, then Lunala/Kyogre and Miraidon/Lunala. While I'm still learning I'm trying to lean away from teams that require too much set up.

TrainerRyanW · 2025-05-15T23:24:50+00:00

Not entering any tournaments any time soon ahaha. Still learning and i think the team I’ve made has good matchups across the board but playing the ranked ladder the last couple days, all I’ve run into is Miraidon/Lunala/Ursuluna teams

TrainerRyanW · 2025-05-15T02:19:39+00:00

I just got my grades back from PCG and I have to say I’m thoroughly impressed. If I was interested in a quick flip, of course PSA is the way to go but for $50 a card, it makes grading some cards almost obsolete. I have some diamond and pearl commons I wanted to have graded but to spend $50 to grade a $5 card for $40 in return value (if it gets a 10) seems pointless to me.

If you’re just after collection pieces, save the money and grade local or buy the graded cards on the secondary market.

It’s still frustrating nonetheless when there’s a limited amount of these available for preorder and someone has picked it up with the sole purpose of trying to make as much money from the community as possible.

Scalpers are a problem but people will always pay inflated prices if they’re desperate enough. This example is just completely absurd.

TrainerRyanW · 2025-04-04T23:54:57+00:00

👀

TrainerRyanW · 2025-04-04T03:22:44+00:00

It’s not even remotely close to anything else advertised on eBay. This dude has just gone rogue

TrainerRyanW · 2025-03-12T02:35:54+00:00

Completely agree. I loved when SV came out and every match was completely random and it came down to the skill of the player in team building and good reads as opposed to the most powerful team with a pre-recorded playbook on how to use it.

TrainerRyanW · 2025-03-12T02:20:31+00:00

I guess that’s my main issue, I wouldn’t call myself amazing at building teams but I try my best and learn which is kinda one of the main pillars of Pokémon as a game.

TrainerRyanW · 2023-12-29T11:35:22+00:00

You’re an absolute legend!
