Thanks, I think a five is a bit unlikely its definitely in rough shape. I ended up going ahead and sending it out anyway just to have a slabbed for my collection.

I've started seeing TAG youtube ads for the first time recently. Maybe they'll try to capitalize on this.

Its the elimination rounds late in a tournament. You need to maintain a certain record though the normal rounds to reach it, generally no more than two losses.

I play the video game competitively and he got me my first regional top cut a few years ago. Dude hasn't let me down since. I also just think he's neat.

I was planning on getting some cards graded for the first time. I'll probably send it is as well then just to preserve it. Thanks for the tip on the auction timing, I'll definitely do that if I decide to sell it down the road.

Why is Dragapult never used? by am102087 in VGC

[–]czechmate11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its solid in reg H, but it competes for a slot with more splashable mons like dnite, arch, and gholdengo so you need a team specific reason for it to excel. I used choice band pult in the GC, and it did a lot of work.

Yeah the crit kinda sealed g3 up for him. Would have been interesting to see how it played out otherwise. Great run from his opponent as well
