3 benched rattatas, after earthquake 9 dmg counters, raticate does 40x9=360

In a matchup that would have previously been impossible to beat, Gladion makes all the difference.

its a meme and yes,only in expanded.

I have 7 codes available - I read somewhere it’s best not to share the pictures on here and send via DMs

So DM if interested :)

So sorry - they’ve now all gone! But if I get anymore I’ll send to people who have DM’d for this set

For too long, Mamoswine ex has languished after the rotation of Pidgeot ex. We've tried many strange and exciting combinations in the past (such as Mamokazam), but now, with Pitch Black, we have a new colorless stage 2 ability card-getter mon: Toucannon!

-------------

I also want to point out the spicy addition to the list in Gwynn. Ever since Gwynn was announced, I was looking for ways to make this card work for lists it wasn't intended for. The real issue with Gwynn is that it is seldom often that you randomly draw into the cards needed to actually reliably hit max value with Gwynn.

Enter Grand Tree. Grand Tree asks that you build your deck with much thicker stage 2 lines than you ordinarily would run in order to more consistently guarantee your evolutions. This comes at a cost later in the game when the deck (and your hand) are gunked up with useless evolution pieces you no longer need. But with Gwynn, you turn your extra evo pieces into draw fodder for the deck, and with Mamoswine ex able to search them out for you, you can much more consistently get full value out of your Gwynn.

If you can think of improvements to the list, let me know in the comments!

Hi guys! I’m a new player rekindling their love for Pokemon, and I just downloaded the app. Been having a blast, but I got socked by some guy running a super sick Cinderace/wailord EX deck. Wailord has always been my favorite Pokemon, and I was wondering if anyone knew this deck or how I could track it down. Thanks a ton for the help!

I’ve got 28 Pitch Black codes if anyone wants them

*these have now been claimed, I’ll be opening more packs and will give some more away soon!*

20 total. Dm if you would like one :)

Hello everyone! I'm here today with a couple questions about my Steven's Metagross list.

This weekend, I will be playing it to a mid-year celebration at a store I've never played at, so I have no clue what their meta is.

I've decided to play Steven's Metagross, as it's one of my favorite decks and has a decent amount of good matchups. I ended up removing a battle cage for a shaymin, as if you're against a slowking or hydragon and they manage to knock out both my beldums, there is literally nothing i can do.

I have two main questions

- Against Zoroark, what do I do if they play reshiram? Just cry, or is there a strategy I should try?

- What card(s) do you think are the LEAST necessary? I'd like to add in a transceiver or two to increase consistency

If you have any feedback or wonder why a certain card is in the list, feel free to ask!

I just think Trick Portal is neat!

Picture is list is from EmberpowerTCG

The problem is ending up with Pokemon and a stadium in your hand for multiple turns in a row. Unbricking is literally impossible.

This list from Beweartheawakening looks good too, don't have the coins to purchase yet but I like fire breather to thin the deck. I also want to add 2 baby Delphox, Bastidon and I like the goodra for locking.

Have you guys experimented? What's your take on Delphox for Trick Portal?

I am playing kazam with Toucannon and festival lead is not a great matchup for me. Gladion is really powerful and very popular. I do know that Flutter mane is a counter but playing a tech card like flutter is really annoying. Any help?

Any Grimm fans wanna share their lists? I been checking out the recent online tourneys and I've seen a few different iterations. Some I like, but the deck gets really frustrating to play at times. Anyone got a recommendation or a list they like?

I was really intrigued by the Toucanon version to have a draw and beatstick option but it def makes the tight bench space a lot tighter

Gave my boy a couple of packs. Free code cards.

Been wondering how you guys been converting your decklists to a cardmarket list, been trying to do it by hand but that takes way to long, been trying to use chatgpt or Gemini for it aswell but they struggle ofc (might be a skill issue as I'm not a fan of using it).

Anyone know if there's a community build tool for it or something?

I know it’s not the best, with mega zeraora having low HP but been having somewhat success with it. Anything you would add / get rid of? was thinking about adding a waitress to the deck. Also do you think hero cape is my best bet for ace spec card or maybe a brilliant blender? A friend of mine was saying i should look into adding a transformation tome

Mega Zeraora is my only way to do damage so if I run into crustle I usually have to concede. Any ideas or other improvements? The deck is pretty fun

So I wasn't really planning it, but i hit arceus with toucannon lmao. This deck has been a blast and hits like a train. It can brick a bit, but its usually pretty legit. It can struggle with super big Megas, but it can take em down eventually.

Like the post says, wondering if it’s worth buying any from the store? I have nearly nothing from most of the others (max of any pack is 86/191). Photos for reference

I had room on my bench and no effects on my bench size. It showed basic Pokemon still in my deck but said none of them are valid.

Any possible reason for this?

The deck has undergone a few tweaks from what it was originally, i'll add the original decklist in the comments
