Fishing Engine?

[Alazor]

Is it possible to make an engine fast enough that is non-Sp that can speed decks up a lot?

Quick Ball
Pokedex 910
Night Teleporter (maybe?)
Poke-Radar (maybe?)
Pokedrawer +
Luxury Ball
Pokemon Rescue
Pokemon Communicator

are cards that immediately come to mind.

Now for supporters:

Copycat
Professor Oak's New Theory
Volkner's Philosophy
Roseanne's Research
Cynthia's Feelings
Bebe's Search
Professor Rowan (maybe-- big maybe?)

Now how do they work well together? Lots of trainers and few supporters or many trainers with few supporters?

are cards that immediately come to mind.

What's with all the shuffle trainers?

its definitely possible just pretty hard to do in the current because

"you encountered a wile spiritomb"

if you can get around it it is an option however, why would u want to do that then just use supporters and get set up by turn 2 or 3/

[ShuckleLVX]

Just on the topic of Night Teleporter:

Its not a terrible card for decks that rely heavily on Uxie for draw power (Namely Shuppet).

[Alazor]

I think it could work nicely if you want to grab a Copycat out of nowhere. :)

[Lawso42]

well... if you are playing a bunch of supporters, VS seeker is quite good as well.

1. You will need Regice to deal with Spiritomb.
2. You MUST run Uxie. Copycat is nice, yeah, but Uxie outclasses it ever so slightly in this case.

I've run a straight Uxie engine compared to Claydol engines in some decks (Undevelop mostly), as well as a trainer-Claydol-Uxie engine with my original Donphan build that was actually horrifyingly successful.

[L00p_H01eS]

^donphan is so overrated in my opinion.

fishing engine that runs 4 great balls with 4 uxie sounds mean...
ima just duskball 4 times and pokegear twice, great ball for uxie to draw seven! then i,
duskball 4 times and pokegear twice, great ball for uxie to draw seven. :D

of course this wont happen but still sounds fun. but then again your trouble is,
"you encountered a wile spiritomb"

You wouldn't want to great ball for Uxie as it would not activate his PokePower because you are not playing it from your hand...

I lol'd. Ever so slightly.

Donphan is kinda overrated, I will agree. It won't be the super insane sweep people thought it would be. But it's got a lot of power. And, my point wasn't that donphan was awesome - it's that I had a speed build down for a Stage 1 Pokemon.

correct me if im wrong... but uxie says "play from hand" great ball plays it straight from the deck... dont think set-up works with great ball...

EDIT: woops calisupra2nr beat me to it. :D

[ShadowCard]

There was a really funny quote about Dusknoir and the fishing engine. Not sure what happened to it.

Anyway, I think you have the wrong idea about the Supporters, Alazor.

According to these, it would appear that you don't need Volkner and a few of your other supporters because you have Uxie. Rowan is pretty critical in getting optimal use of Uxie.

[L00p_H01eS]

hmm i thought great ball moved a basic to your hand first.
i guess not.

I see a sevier lack of x4 Vitory Medal. :frown:

[LegendaryLugia]

^ I agree - Victory Medal is anice addition to any Fishing Engine. It's whether you have 4 and if not, whether you want to splash out on extra ones.

Just out of interest, wasn't the Fishing named after Fish? I'm pretty sure it was, but I'm not sure.

[Arcanite]

I think it was old rod a while ago. I may be wrong.
