I really enjoy playing the pokemon tcg nothing is better then a good pokemon card pack opening if the pokemon cards are worth money its even better. getting into a pokemon card battle is also fun. Of course playing the pokemon tcg is my forte! like how to build a pokemon deck and playing the pokemon tcg online is how I spend most of my evenings. Pokemon tcg tournament are also great and if you even need any help on how to play the pokemon tcg then let me know! Dont forget you can also open pokemon tcg pack online too! Ive never got to open packs with leonhart or randolph but hopefully will soon! Not pokemon vgc pokemon vgc online or pokemon tcg world championships. Building pokemon decks is very fun! watching other deck profiles and deck lists is very helpful

The "Wall Stall" archtype wasn't born in 2015, I was playing Wall Stall in 2000. Mr. Mime being incapable of being one-shot, Alazakam moving damage as you see fit, and a bench of Chansey's to absorb damage counters until you bounce them away. Loved that deck, glad to see modern Pokemon still sees it as viable.

To be fair, Igglybuff and Muk were both very effective at dealing with Slowking.

Heads up in the 2004 world championship a junior was given a game loss for forgetting to discard her supporter. It was called 10- at the time. This was in the semi finals. No prize penalties existed at that time straight to game loss. She was dominating G2 and that lack of support discard = game loss. With 45min of crying, because of one of the worst judge rulings in history a simple loss made G3 unplayable for her. The penalty was for the most hardcore thing you can imagine... Forgetting to discard her supporter which was supposed to be left by the active till end of turn to see if a player had used one or not. I do not know of any other that led to the entire penalty and prize system being redone.

They wouldn't let him just fix his deck list, so they made him play with four energy in place. Clearly had professors letter in the deck, and written down. Instead of having him clarify, they just had him sub the cards, so he walked away from the tournament iirc. This was during the earlier days of XY.

Sounds like your Malamar deck is similar to my single strike Urshifu deck. Essentially Houndoom to turbo energies, while making use of the single strike scroll that does damage based on how many counters are on the pokemon. Im trying to teach my nephews that if a card doesnt support your play style, it better be so fuckin powerful that it doesn’t matter than youre trouncing your own play style to utilize them. For my deck, that is throwing Radiant Jirachi out there to absorb a few hits, maybe get a lucky KO - when all i want him for is his ability on death to target draw cards from my deck

There’s a deck in the Legacy format that I absolutely loved playing and hated playing against. It’s the Weavile snag claw deck. Basically it had a poke power that discards any card from your opponents hand when evolved. You would play de evolution spray to reuse this poke power. Then you would play a slowbro that controls the order of the top 3 cards of their deck, then to top it all off you spam laser, crushing hammer, Pokemon catcher, lost remover (enhanced hammer but lost zone instead of discarding) etc. while making use of sableye that has an attack for 1 energy can get any 2 cards back from your deck effectively having them dead draw the entire game while you slowing take 6 prizes from poison damage. Seems like everyone forgets about this deck. Just spam disruptive cards while feeding your opponent bad cards via slowbro while discarding any card that’s a threat to you. I had around an 85% win rate with this deck typically only losing against it. Also any deck using special energies only was an auto loss since you would loop lost remover so they can’t get their energies back.

42:44 HAHAHAHA If you only got hit with 4 Shiftry then either you had started with just 1 or 2 basics in hand, or the opponent somehow completely bricked. It was not uncommon to get hit by the Shiftry 6-8 times, meaning even if you started with 4 basics in hand you were still likely to lose before you got to play a single card. I know that for sure, because I got hit with that many Shiftries. Repeatedly. For two weeks straight until I just straight up uninstalled the client for the Online TCG, and didn't touch it until recently with the revamp into Pokemon Live TCG.

We seem to be in an alright format right now despite some E block cards like VIP Pass and debatably F block Lost Zone cards being a bit ridiculous. (Giratina VSTAR, anyone?) Charizard ex from Obsidian Flames does scare me though... That's a lot of damage for 2 energy, and it gets set up absurdly fast. Charizard can win the game by turn 2! Other decks take at least 2-3 turns minium to get set up.

@@BurtsPTCG I remember seeing a short vid of a combo that summoned a 100,000 atk point monster that if your opponent doesn't attack it by the end of their tun, they lose the duel, and had a combo with another card that when sent to the graveyard due to a monster's effect, ended the opponent's turn and the guy also got a card on the opponent's side of the field that did just that at the start of their turn. It was a long and confusing watch.

I think item lock is a perfectly good mechanic when balanced well. Just look at recent formats dominated by ability-based draw and absurd amounts of items played per turn. Muscle band allowed a lot of the annoying strategies to work in the XY era and Vit Band is proof we’ll never get that again. But the bottom line is any good unconventional deck is subject to lots of complaining from the people that love their beat stick decks.

Been playing competitively since about 2007 and this video hit a lot of my old wounds, but one of my worst didn't make this list. I remember having a visceral reaction to every LuxChomp deck that reared its ugly head. The issue for me was just the absurdity of a forced switch of your opponent's choice whenever they evolved into their main attacker in Luxray GL Lv. X that would OHKO or two-shot everything in the format with Expert Belt/Crobat G and then get all the damage on the board healed on a whim by another amazing attacker in Garchomp C Lv. X that could pick off anything you finally managed to get back to the bench. So, what if you did 30 damage to one of your benched Pokémon or had to discard two energy and it couldn't use that attack next turn? They just healed their entire board if you didn't OHKO anything because both Luxray and Garchomp have no retreat cost. Apart from maybe the Stormfront Sableye or Pokémon Catcher, Luxray GL Lv. X is my personal most disliked card in PTCG history. Garchomp was tolerable because of the restrictions of the healing. Luxray was just too heavily rewarding people for evolving into a good attacker. They could just easily pick off all your 90hp or less support Pokémon for free or stop you from setting up your evolutions turn two of the game.
