WINDSTORM! and MORE SWITCH/WARP POINT. Andrew, i built this deck on apprentice and i came one prize away from beating Banette/Blissey but two things got in my way.

1.Cessation Crystal
2.The fact when i used restructure, my opponent has me keep switching my Claydol active there for wasting my energy attach for the turn
 
alright, that is quite a problem, what fixees would you recomend to fix that, eathen?
or anyone else fot that matter.

all help/comments is/are appreciated!
 
hmm, your right, this list does look good. If I were to pull out anything it would probably be the Holon WP, but thats JMO, and then after you pull that out

+2 Windstorm
+1 Switch/Warp Point
 
i dont know about the WP, then gallade can sonic blade me...
and one of the things i really like about this deck is that it takes a gallade 4 prizes to ko an empoleon.
and then i would also only be playing a mere 13 energy.
thats ok for some decks, like t2 ban, but i dont know if that could cut it for something like empoleon...
 
I think the Swampert tech would be good but only if you decided to go with an Empoleon x.. and maybe 1 premier ball.

great idea *bows* im going to have to test this out for myself to see how it does
 
thats what i was thinking, but most people thought that the claydol would work better.
i liked the swampert idea cause then i can attack with plakia as a viable option, same with the swampert itself.

and thanks for the bow, lol.
 
this isnt really the right place to ask me that, ya should have sent me a private message.
either way, yes i do, i just dont play often unless im really bored or if justin wants to play.
 
It is a pretty good deck. I currently have it built on Apprentice and it worked out pretty well other than the fact that i get owned by Cessation crystal
 
Q: How to deal with Claydol being switched to front?
A: Get both of your Palkia X's out. First gust is to make Claydol active and second one is to switch Claydol to bench and bring forward any water pokémon that should have free (or one) retreat. Then retreat.

Another option is to retreat first for Claydol and use Palkia X's power then. Your pokémon is stuck for a turn, but pretty much anything can attack with single energy in this deck, so use up the turn and retreat next turn.

Third and best option is to hold a switching trainer/energy in your hand. I played Warp Energies just to mess up with Palkia X in non-water deck.
 
thank you very much Dennis Hawk, i hadnt thought of that yet!
can you use two Restructure a turn?
that clears up my biggest problem though, and i thank you for that advice.

and black mamba, thanks, im going to try it with emp lv x and the regular come league, and see which works better.
 
use lvl X emp...it would prolly help...premierballs...a nice stadium would help...hmm...swampert,octillery,or lapras is good if those could help..love palkia tho...its awesome...
 
The emp X could help in certain situations. Say you restructure, you throw there main threat to the bench, bring up someone they cant just retreat with, and snipe once for 80, then come next turn, restructure it active, free retreat back to emp and hit it for 70, it better be dead after 80 + 70

Just a thaught. I Have been in love with the Palkisa X's power since i read it the day of release...
