I didn't say it would necessarily do anything, it may. But i know that someone will end up playing it, i may end up playing it at Nats, i have thought about playing Empoleon MD at Nats, but we will have too see
Luvdisc seems like a better play than pachi. Basically do the same thing as pachi and can heal your bench if u hit it with empy.
hmmmmm that doesnt rly make sense. in the middle of the game while your pummeling with empoleon, youre going to retreat for a weakling luvdisc and hope you have a stadium in play to heal 10 damage from your dudes. you just basically gave up doing major damage with empoleon for 1 turn, and said to the opponent "here take a free prize". and youre giving up the extra 10 hp and definitive 3 pokemon that pachi gets.run luvdisc as your starter to heal your pokemanz if you hit heads on group surf.
call me crazy but i would think of making an empoleon md + super unown deck. fill your bench with useful unowns but make sure to use the one that lets you move damage counters from your unowns to the defending pokemon (i think that is unown z). that way if you miss your flip on empoleons' second attack what you are really doing is storing damage to be transfered to the enemy. plus you could still use unown e or unown g as tools if need be.
Dusknoir would rip it apart.
I already have stated in past posts and you notice MY decks, I am going to play EmpoDp/DP5. With Eeveelutions, Quagsire, Aerodactyle, OR whatever. He is awesome, BOTH versions are VERY playable. I have Played Empo for a LONG time, Even when people have gave up on him, SO Of course he will be in MY Nats deck come June!!!
Bronzong Form MD?
1-1 Alakazam, G/G to GGs annoying and stupid tech.
Hits G/G for 80, so after a few 30s spread by Empoleon it can KO them easily.
Psy Lock shuts it off, which lets the GG player do a combo of several different things. Gallade OHKO, or Dusknoir+ warp it away. It's not that hard to get around it at all. Empoleon is a deck I've played in the past, and unless it runs Claydol it's extremely slow and usually spreads damage slowly. Though different lists have different goals, the most effective I've seen was a list that had an Absol start which I played against that actually played Alakazam 2-2. GG completely outspeeds Empoleon and once the Psy Lock starts, it only gets harder.
And instead of Alakazam, why not just play Cess.(if you run Speed Empoleon/no powers) to shut everything down. Though there's always that chance Pachi might pop up.
