New Deck Idea

I'm bored and I need a new idea for a deck. I pretty much just finished my Leafeon/Roserade deck except for one or 2 cards so that's great but now I want a more serious deck that is crazy fast, hard hitting, and not luxchomp. I'm willing to spend as much money as is required to build it.

Sableye is cheap.

Gyarados still seems to work.

Kingdra did sweet at Nats.

Gengar is for cool guys.

Hmm I might want to do Kingdra. That's my style, fast and hard hitting.

If you like Kingdra, I think you should consider playing him/ her with donphan. From what I hear, it's a tough and reliable pairing.

Nah, Donphan as a 1-1 tech is too easily countered with Crobat G and Garchomp C Lv.X. You want at least a 2-2 line to be effective. That would clunk up the deck. I think Kingdra Machamp is a better option or just plain simple Kingdra.

Crobat G doesn't do anything when you Warp Point back to the bench.
"Plain simple Kingdra" gets one-shotted by Luxray.

If you play the card Warp Point.

If you draw the card Warp Point.

Then what do you bring out? Donphan I'm guessing? Sure, it may hurt a little. But at the end of the day they can't OHKO you back. They just lose the special condition. They already take 20 so just poison them again. 4 Poketurn + Garchomp C Lv.X can heal Crobat a lot of times. A 1-1 tech is easily ountered, yeah.

Agreed, I meant you can either go with consistancy but lose to Luxchomp or lose consistancy but cover that match up a bit more.

Almost all good decks right now are fast. Just play whatever you're most comfortable with.
