increase ur draw power and starting power.

*Jariel* · 04/26/2006, 05:22 AM

wats d purpose of eevee? cff? id think its better to increase my plusles and beldums for that

holon electrode does not increase the speed of attaching energies it even lowers the number of energies in play by needing to return an energy to hand i really think it will only draw me back

BlackBrock · 04/26/2006, 05:35 AM

everyone uses jirachi to start, if u have eevve or pusle, call for family then u can get metagross and dragonite set up faster. holon electrode doesnt decrese nothin, you can leave the enrgy or return it to your hand, ether or. Double rainbow will hold you back becasue you'll be doing -10 damage...holon electrode acts as a DRE, doesnt make you have -10 damage, and has an attack, not to mention instead of discarding energy, u can discard the metals and lighting on metagross and leave hte holon and still crash and burn.

plus u can only add 1 more pulse...and wuts the purpose of marcargo and slugma? you dont always need smooth over, their are other cards (like i mentioned) that cn do the same thing and once used use anotehr card to use it again. so its consistant and giving waht you need when needed and not ahving you shuffle your deck possably messing up a good draw that could come. i run a Metanite deck also, but mine has a twist to it tat ppl say "wtf" to lol.

im_me · 04/26/2006, 05:38 AM

Use Desert Ruins instead of Holon Ruins.

*Jariel* · 04/26/2006, 06:05 AM

magcargo not only increases speed and consistancy of having 2 stage 2 pokemons by being a searcher but also protects me from the dreaded battle frontier that could literally kill the deck

i also noticed the need for at least 1 energy attachment per turn to maximize damage potential. dre allows a surprise come back for example needing to discard all energies attached metagross to KO an important pokemon in an earlier turn.

BlackBrock · 04/26/2006, 06:42 AM

yes DRE is a surprize to -10 your attack, u want your attack to be max. if your scared of battle frontier, then add energy recycle i think it is... or something else to get energy from youyr discard, or instead of holno ruins add pwoer tree, or holon research tower. or someother kinda of statum. atelast 2 statums. like i said before, their are other cards trainers that combo with surpporters to do better than smooth over (smooth over cna only be done once, trainers to support can b done one after the other) and as i mention also, holon doesnt decrease your damage and u can still leave hte energy on the board. so if u discard all to KO, then the holon energy still leaves u at max power. because that -10 from DRE can mean your opponet will b left with +10hp and that last 10 hp can b the diff between youbeing the new 06 champ and 2nd place...

*Jariel* · 04/26/2006, 04:13 PM

*Jariel* · 04/27/2006, 02:36 AM

adding a dx metagross maybe a good idea thanks ^^ but do u really only have 3 beldums and 4 metagross or is it somekind of typo?

Absoltrainer · 04/27/2006, 01:06 PM

well acually it was a semi updated versain at the time i was running 3 beldum and 3 metagross δ then i added 1 Dx one for backup and then took a δ one out and added a new DX one so yeah four would probobly be better

blackanese · 04/27/2006, 01:16 PM

add 4 delta rainbow. or at least some in the deck

Shiloh Phoenix · 04/27/2006, 02:40 PM

the new trainer for this deck is holon lake. and the new pokemon is holon's castform.

holon lake is not a bad idea but i have a total of 5 non delta pokemon (plusle, slugma,magcargo,beldum, metang) maybe when they rotate out holon lake will make a better gym but its worth a try our league is tom ill see how holon lake goes

with the same reason as above castform may not make a good start if but if i use all delta pokemon then i think holon's cast form will be more effective

Quote:

actually the only use of delta rainbow in the deck is to provide metal from playing the deck i never had problems with the lack of metal energies 3-4 dre and 4 metals provide all the metal ill ever need. besides i cant delta charge the delta rainbow

Shiloh Phoenix · 04/27/2006, 05:44 PM

good point, but when the format rotates, you've gotta use the delta form off all those, so the deck can bassically search itself out and if you get a mentor with a castform, your draw is set up for at least 2 turns. in the beginning of the game anyway.

Absoltrainer · 04/27/2006, 08:46 PM

now the trick with this deck is the 2 decks that nail it are medicham ex and machamp and with DX metagross going out it may be tough needs a good phycic pokemon to defend against those decks.

yup when the rotation comes ill change all the pokemon to delta and holon castform and holon lake will surely nake a huge difference
