GS/SS Deck

[DarkmasterchrisEX]

Ok I normally never build a deck b4 a set is released but this is sick....

Pokemon 26
2x Oddish
1x Gloom
2x Bellossom
4x Anorith
3x Armaldo
4x Houndour
3x Houndoom
2x Pidgey
1x Pidgeoto
2x Pidgeot


3x Super scoop up ( Since No Brineys ROFL )
4x Candy
4x Celio * Early Game draw *
3x Wally
2x Copy Cat
2x Switch
1x Strength Charm
1x Crystal Shard

10x Fighting
4x DRE

Basic strategy is to COMPLETLY shut downy our opponent Houndoom says no trainers Armaldo says no supporters Dark Vileplume anyone? The bellosom is in there to heal arlmaldo since I cant have brineys...

BTW, I love warcraft ^^

The deck:
What do you mean by no brineys? No set is getting knocked out of the format until after World's are over.. So, put Briney back in!

It looks pretty good, and it will work until you start winning. Who will be your main attacker?

[DarkmasterchrisEX]

My Main attacker is sadly Armaldo and the reason I say no briney is cause armaldo allows no supporters on both sides... ( Sorry to get off topic but do you play? If so what server? )

[ChicoBlanco]

Hmm..... I like that Houndoom. Put in some Desert Ruins since your Opponent cant play counter stadioms with Houndoom out. Otherwise he's a little bit too weak to fight EX"S.

[ChicoBlanco]

also I would remove the Bellossom since it slows down the deck and you don't wanna fill your bench NE way

[Shiloh Phoenix]

Wait, where's your draw engine? no steven's, not even a cozmo, shame on you.

[Sceptile7990]

Im not getting how this deck works -__-

Its like, Whats the point?

[Shiloh Phoenix]

It's supposed to completely shut them down. No trainers whatsoever.

[Sceptile7990]

true, but whats the point of bellossom?

[Team_Joe_Captain]

Hmmmm.....Mt. Moon anyone? You can't rely too much on a Poke-Power these days especially the will-be era of the Gator.....

[DarkmasterchrisEX]

The bellossom is my heal engine.....

[DarkmasterchrisEX]

nT

[shiftrymaster68]

What about claw fossil?

[menoknow]

I'm guessing your thinking Mt. Moon would shut the Houndoom down, he has a poke-body, not power, so Mt. Moon wouldn't shut this deck down any.

Drop Bellossom.

Use the Tool that gives a Pokemon +20 HP and shuts off its powers and bodies.

Add in Supporters.

Then add Porygon2 - whose power lets you return a Tool from one of your Pokemon back to your hand.

[DarkmasterchrisEX]

Hmmmmm That could work he he I will wait till the actual sets come out to fully build it ^_^

[TylerM]

Ummm...This deck is un-playable...It IS NO possible way to get out Armaldo w/o cheating unless you add in some Claw Fossil....

i cant believe we all completely forgot about that >_>
and yes, drop the bellossom. it may be a nice 20 hp a turn, but its a stage 2, and you NEED draw power

reporters, stevens, bills, PORs, copycats, cozmos, rocket mission, anything lol


server:azeroth
i normally play custom games on roc/tft like dota, footies, etc. but i used to play ladder quite a bit, not too much anymore

[spartan-104]

^^*laughs at the lack of claw fossil.*
-1anorith
-1houndour
-1celio
-1strength charm

+4claw fossil

[SuperWooper]

This version is rather flawed, concept-wise. There is a much better way to run this deck, I believe.

Pokemon: 21
4 Cleffa
4 Anorith
3 Armaldo
3 Houndour
3 Houndoom
2 Porygon
2 Porygon 2

Trainers: 24
4 Steven's Advice
4 Celio's Network
3 Copycat
3 Power Root
4 Claw Fossil
4 Rare Candy
2 Briney's Compassion

Energy: 15
7 Fighting
4 Double Rainbow
3 Fire
1 Scramble

Here's the deal. Porgyon 2 has a power that lets you pick up Tools from the field and return them to your hand, and when you attach Power Root to Armaldo, his Supporter Restriction GETS SHUT DOWN. Therefore, during your opponent's turn, they can't play supporters. But, during your turn, you simply attach Power Root to Armaldo, stopping his Power, use your Supporter, and pick Power Root back into your hand with Porgyon 2. The combination only needs 3 Pokemon in play, so Houndoom can work more efficiently than with your combination, which is slower with your supporter restriction. Since my deck finds a way around this restriction, I can Briney, Celio, Copycat, and Steve until my heart is content. I do play 4 Rare Candy, which may seem odd, but you want Armaldo out T2, whenever possible. Since Houndoom stops ATM: Rock, Armaldo doesn't need to worry about being Candied from a 40 HP fossil. A T2 Armaldo basically shuts the opponent down completely. It would shut down you completely too, if not for Porgyon 2.

This is unlimeted deck right because ss will rotat out befor this set comes out. Taking out Armaldo.

[shiftrymaster68]

I'd add one or two Scramble because of Porygon2's Scramble Trip attack.

[steelixEX]

play magnetic storm to atak pidjeot
