Oh cool, didn't know there was a Rain Dance for other energies going on. How consistent is the Emboar set up do you think? Is turn 2 or 3 common?
 
It's good. I get a T2 Emboar out pretty consistantly. Right now I'm trying to figure out the catcher situation. The boar is the main catcher target in this deck. I'm trying to fit a float stone in here so I can counter it better. Keldeo does help out but catcher really hurts since emboar a retreat cost is 4.
 
Contemplating on putting energy switches and a Mac potion to help keep energy on the board. And advice anyone can give me on what to take out and what not? Anything would be great, thank you!
 
Have you playtested yet against TDK, aka Plasma Box? I suspect this deck is undoubtedly the most "popular" deck right now; so, I'd be interested in your testing results. Deoxys EX 1HKOs your Mewtwo EXs (if 2 energy are attached). What has been your response to your Poké's KO?
 
I do have some trouble honestly. I have a hard time setting up against its with out tropical beach :/. The deck is still really good and I have beaten TDK with this deck before. Though my win to loss ratio vs the deck is in the negatives. Any sudjestions on how I can improve my match up?
 
With your deck's "heavy" (i.e., 3) committment to Mewtwo EXs, TDK's Deoxys EX can easily 1HKO as soon as you attach 2 energy to a Mewtwo EX. You may want to consider:
  • Adding Eviolites to your deck. An Eviolited Mewtwo EX with only 2 attached energy is not 1HKOd by a Deoxys EX;
  • Incorporate Enhanced Hammers into your deck and target the Plasma or Prism energy; or
  • Incorporate 1 Rayquaza EX (and some L energy) to counter/1HKO Deoxys EXs.

I was thinking white kyurem EX maybe. I was thinking of hammers also. I don't know what to take out for everything ya no? :/
 
I would turn this in to a white kyruem deck. Mewtwo ex can a problem deoxyes ex running around....they could have one powered up in one turn.
 
I wouldn't go as far as to go all white kyurem with this deck. Mewtwo can still drop Deoxys like its cool with the deck running hammers wouldn't it? Plus I'm getting dowsing machine here soon so I can re use some old hammers. I also don't know what I would take out for the white kyurem EX. :/
 
I don't know enough to help improve it...but what do you think of an Emboar deck with Heatran ex, tons of Max potions and Cofagrigus, the one that transfers damage counters to the opponent? The idea being to offload the damage on a near-dead Heatran once the max potions give out.

Sounds very slow. I was thinking of putting max potions in here though. Idk what to take out. Also I made a new build for tournament play.
