A Review of Volcanion’s Success at Hartford Regionals and Looking at List Specifics “Round 1: Golisopod-GX/Tapu Koko SM29 WW Round 2: Metagross-GX WW Round 3: Golisopod-GX/Garbodor WW Round 4: Gardevoir-GX/Sylveon-GX WLT Round 5: Gardevoir-GX/Sylveon-GX LWT Round 6: Gardevoir-GX/Sylveon-GX WLT Round 7: Ho-oh-GX/Salazzle-GX WW Round 8: Volcanion-EX/Turtonator-GX/Volcanion LWW Round 9: Golisopod-GX/Garbodor/Tapu Fini-GX LL 5-1-3 4 Volcanion This is a change I made from the list Azul gave me, as I wanted the extra consistency of having the fourth baby Volcanion. In literally every game you play with this deck, the goal is to attack with Volcanion on turn one to get some energy in play. This made me add in the fourth one because…
When it’s drumming out rapid beats in battle, it gets so caught up in the rhythm that it won’t even notice that it’s already knocked out its opponent. (Thwackey)
Thoughts on Fort Wayne Results, Expanded Projections, Shift to Standard, Golisopod Gathering, and Spicy Standard Salazzle “While observing from the sidelines, I was happy to see that most of my predictions about Expanded game to fruition. Though the M Manectric-EX deck I wrote about did not make any sort of appearance (were there any Manectric-EX decks in the entire tournament?), the concept of pairing Garbodor with new things was all over the place. Sableye/Garbodor (which I mentioned) saw Igor Costa and our own Jimmy Pendarvis coast to day 2, and there were a few Seismitoad decks floating around.

Charizard VMAX/Volcarona-GX and ADPZ for the Post-Rotation Format (TEUβDAA) “The deck is somewhat inconsistent and slow compared to other decks of the format like ADPZ or Eternatus VMAX.

It is true that the deck has its problems, but we also need to realize that the format has changed. There is no PokΓ©mon capable of KOing an opponent’s VMAX PokΓ©mon in a single attack without a tremendous effort behind it. Even with a little inconsistency and delay to be able…
Through its nose, it sucks in the emanations produced by people and PokΓ©mon when they feel annoyed. It thrives off this negative energy. (Impidimp)
An Outline of Trevenant/Accelgor Matchup Strategies “Against most decks (e.g Yveltal/Garbodor, Rayboar, Flareon, etc.) you want to be following the same basic strategy of completely locking the opponent out of the game, and using Dusknoir to move damage around before taking all your remaining Prizes in a single swoop at the end of the game. Your goal in every matchup will be to try and set up a turn two Trevenant, and another one on the Bench, and then after that you will want to set up a couple of Accelgor and a Dusknoir. Then the deckΒ just needs to stream Deck and CoverΒ with either Mew-EX (using…
A powerful curse was woven into an ancient painting. After absorbing the spirit of a Yamask, the painting began to move. (Runerigus)
