Deck section is for deck help. Card discussion belongs in this forum.

Porygon 2, you really have to use normal trainers such as ER2 or things to that effect. This way, you get cards out of your hand, and can regulary use the power. And you have disruption.

can try magcargo smooth over.

Porygon2 DS in deck could be except supporters like prof. oak's research, steven's advice or something like that ;)

Easily Pokemon/Trainers that eat away at your hand. Holon's Supporters, Dark Marowak, and Primape are nice examples of this.

I've seen it used quite well with Slowking decks, plus there's my experimental Status Update deck with Beedrill/Ariados.

You do need to make sure you have supporters to restore cards from your discard to your deck however, otherwise, you run the very real risk of topdecking yourself should the game go too long.

Useful non-supporters. Most of these are ball cards (also you can use celio, because it only gets 1 card), so you'll get plenty of pokemon, but you could be in trouble if you're using a deck that relies heavily on specific sorts of energy. So, don't use it in a deck like that.

Porygon2 really forces you to change your whole deck around.

*Archaic* · 01/15/2006, 07:43 PM

Indeed. The standard, supporter heavy draw engine simply doesn't work with a Porygon2. Instead, cards like Masterball, Pokémon Retriever, Energy Recycle System and PokéNav become staples, with the occasional Rocket's Admin to allow you to put that hand away if it gets too full.

zapdos ex · 01/15/2006, 07:45 PM

or if you dicard cards a lot, back up helps.

I saw it being way effective in a Primetool deck that won a CC

zapdos ex · 01/16/2006, 08:59 PM

Porygon2 works well with Professor Oak's Research, POR > play cards > draw extra.
