Hello everyone, This deck is basically a combonation of 6 Corners and the Truth. This deck is for states so if any of you have some advice I would appreciate it.

Pokemon:24
3-1-2 Vileplume
3-2-2 Reuniclus
3 Regigigas EX
2 Terrakion
1 Kyurem EX
1 Zekrom
1 Cobalion
1 Shaymin
1 Pichu
1 Cleffa

T/S/S:22
3 Collector
3 PONT
3 Rare Candy
2 Twins
2 Cheren
2 N
2 Seeker
2 PETM
2 Communication
1 Black Belt

Energy:14
4 Dce
4 Prism
2 Rainbow
2 Water
1 Special Metal
1 Fighting

Strategy: The strategy of the deck is to counter and tank. The deck is basically made out of tanks. Once you get the Regigigas you wont to get another high Hp pokemon on the bench with Vileplume and Reuniclus and move the energy around so that you can OHKO any pokemon and at the same time not get Koed yourself. Once you get this strategy going there is noway of defeating it (except for Magnezone etc.). Terrakion is for Magnezone. Kyurem is for Reshiram/EX. Zekrom i guess is for tornadus or is just a damage soaker. Cobalion is for Kyurem/EX. Cleffa and Pichu are starters and Shaymin is for last minute move energy around . Hope you guys liked the deck and hope you guys have some advice on it.:biggrin:
 
If you're seriously considering this deck with only two Twins, then I'd either advise that you up that count, or at least include a couple Pokegear 3.0 to shore up consistency. Also, three Regigigas EX is maaaajor overkill.
 
Yeah i was thinking to drop the black belt and add the twins. Are you suggesting me to drop one of the gigas or should keep the three. Thanx for the advice though.

I'm playing truth as well for states. And I have tried a list like yours but it wasn't consistant enough. If you look all your attackers take more then one turn to build up and attack. In a format where OHKO's will be delt it becomes rather difficult at first. Three Giggas is over kill with the rise of Terrikion in play. My EX's that I play are one of each Mewtwo, Giggas, and Shaymin. If you don't have Mewtwo another Giggas can be substituded, I have found Donphan to be great as well for one energy you can start attacking, allowing you to stall some and build up a better attacker. And also spreads some damage for Giggas second attack. IMO PETM isn't needed replace them with Twins because Twins can search out those pokemon and a extra card. In this deck you want to be loosing most of the game so Twins is a great card when loosing. Kyruem EX seems like a great card in the deck but I took it out and put it back in and took it out again multiple times and find its better without it. Takes three energy to use one attack and is weak to Cobalion which isn't good with the rise of Mewtwo EX. I would switch out the Zekrom for a Reshiram as well, with Cobalion, Durant, and even Verizion being in decks that will be played at states a fire weakness is needed. There isn't to many pokemon weak to electric anymore. If you do decide to play Donphan two Terrakion won't be needed I would drop one of them. These are just my opinion's from playing Truth sense I seen Ross playing it at World's, And would like to help out others, on that note I hope this helps.
