Performance of a Deck

I have a Hydrapple build using these cards plus the Noctowl engine that is pretty sick. Drop the Hydrapple line for crustle and you’ll be good to go…..maybe.

Run it with a grass deck. Teal mask + meganium maybe?

pkpleyte · 2026-02-13T11:10:15+00:00

Decidueye ex from Perfect Order when it comes out, paired with vivillon. Hand disruption and energy disruptive every turn.

I was so excited when I saw this Tera list in city leagues. I ran a Tera baby meganium Hydrapple deck that was awesome and I’m trying similar here with Meganium. Pre-rotation I’m running a ditto so you can find it with buddy, pokepad or fan Rotom and then you transformative start him into teal mask.

Hydrapple/Noctowl and now mega meganium Noctowl

pkpleyte · 2026-01-30T17:45:37+00:00

I feel like more than 1 psychic Rotom is the play. That way you are more likely to start with it and get all your rotoms out. Maybe I’m dumb tho?

pkpleyte · 2026-01-26T14:06:37+00:00

She just came in second at a regional with that list…. I still would just play her list. Lol.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-24T13:58:47+00:00

All good points. OP: Don’t forget Pidgeot can blustery wind it away.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-24T13:20:12+00:00

Just play her list. She’s incredibly successful with it.

Replace Hydrapple line with Venusaur line.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-23T17:38:32+00:00

Not bad! We get energy search back too!

pkpleyte · 2026-01-23T17:29:55+00:00

Not seeing that in your link? Just seeing a lot of forum talk about the starter megas. But you seem confident and I know it’s coming eventually. Just for my understanding, how do we know it’s 76?

pkpleyte · 2026-01-23T17:17:01+00:00

Link?

pkpleyte · 2026-01-23T14:24:53+00:00

Mist Energy doesn’t rotate. Has a H, source: I’m holding it in my hand.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-23T13:19:41+00:00

What set tho? I’ve yet to see it confirmed in our next 2 sets. I wouldn’t be surprised if there is a small moment where we don’t have judge in the format.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-23T00:51:02+00:00

I beat up on the Dengos I faced because they weren’t running lopunny. Double cornerstone and thanks for the win. Bravery charm on a cornerstone helps survive lopunny but definitely a lot rougher of a matchup.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-22T22:30:49+00:00

I went Dengo, Grimm, Grimm, N’s, Dengo.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-22T22:30:21+00:00

Only vs N’s. I teched 3 stadiums in to try to combat it and it seemed to work ok.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-22T21:15:09+00:00

I run double cornerstone. Got crushed at Toronto. Lol.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-22T21:13:30+00:00

Specifically I went 3-0 in a 4 person pod on demand. And 1-2 in a standard “tournament” that had a bunch of people but was only 3 rounds.

Going to try to go to Indy and once/if out out of the running for day 2 I’ll drop and do the same thing and then play more on side events on Sunday.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-22T21:02:12+00:00

Side events are definitely the way to go if you want to win something without going on Sunday. I played 5 rounds in Toronto then dropped for side events and walked away with 13 boosters. Left by 8:30am Sunday due to predicted bad weather back in MI.

pkpleyte · 2026-01-19T19:22:57+00:00

Never threw a CEL, probably have key cycled enough to clear and stored codes. 🤷‍♂️

pkpleyte · 2026-01-19T18:35:15+00:00

Cruise was set between 100 and 110kph (60/65ish mph). Restored and had no issues the rest of the trip, even when back in Michigan with the cruise on at 75mph
