Following is a BC-on, post rotation deck I've built and play-tested for a few weeks. when the English scans of the Furious Fists (FuF) were finally released, my Poke pals and I proxied a variety of decks and commenced testing. All of the early play-testing culminated with this particular deck...

In building a Charizard EX (Wing Attack) deck recently (in preparation for an upcoming League Challenge), I was quite interested in incorporating any form of energy attachment acceleration (EAA) afforded by the Blacksmith-Fiery Torch combo while still having strong, consistent card draw (CD)...

In most of my "fast" decks (i.e., no stage 1 nor 2 Poké lines), my card draw and Poké search "engine" mostly consists of: 2 Bicycle (or 4 Roller Skates) 2 Colress (or 0 when playing 4 Roller Skates) 4 N 3 Professor Juniper 2 Skyla 4 Ultra Ball With the introduction of the Flashfire set...

This past weekend, I competed in the MI State Championship tournament where we had 120+ Masters playing. Lots of top-notch players (even some from Canada) were competing. As expected, there were a number of Blastoise, Darkrai variants, FairyBox, PlasmaBox, RayBoar (with and without Delphox)...

With the pending game rule changes just a week away, I've started altering my 4 decks accordingly. Specifically, I'm removing the Pokémon Catchers for others cards such as Poké search, card draw Supporters, Escape Rope, etc. As I continue to re-examine how these rule changes will impact my...

For those of us who refuse to pay big bucks for 2-3 Tropical Beach, try running 3 -4 Kangaskhan (PB) in your deck (possibly replacing your Level Balls). This Kangaskhan has 100 HP (not likely to get donked, unlike the CfF Emolga) and a Call for Family attack (for C energy cost) that can get and...

A new Supporter, Ghetsis, will soon be released with the upcoming Plasma Freeze set. It states, "Your opponent reveals his or her hand and shuffles all Item cards found there into his or her deck. Then, draw a number of cards equal to the number of Item cards your opponent shuffled into his or...

The forthcoming Cradilly has an attack, Life-Explosion, that states, "For each Energy attached to this Pokémon, search your deck for a Stage 2 Pokémon, and put it onto your Bench..." Will these benched Poké then be considered basic since they were not evolved or will the retreived stage 2 Poké...
