-1 roseannes for a copy cat
-1 sw ralts for a df ralts (ownege sleep is better then confusion, and btw confusion isnt permanent LOL, so you got them mixed up.)

that what i would do, cause.. that would make it my list beside energy lol..
 
no

no copycat would be bad cause think about it u r discarding there hand. and the ralts would be bad to cause ya confusion is permanent until they retreat asleep goes away if they get heads.
 
k

k please explain your reasoning on taking out a gardy lv x and a gallade . cause that would be a bad idea think about who is the main attacker of the deck. gallade, and what if the other is prized then u r trying to use gardy lock but u only have one lv x, but wait what if that gets prized. or wait lets see the other way if just the gardy is prized and u can't get it out of there then u r stuck with the gallades which become bad after one up against mirror match., and psy lock on sw gardy is bad when u r playing up against mirror match who has good start or just about anything that has a good attacker. your way would have less of a chance of even beating that bad deck the answer. they would just walk the floor with your way after they get that first gallade knock out. they shut the gardy down .
 
The main attacker of the deck is gardy not gallade. Also in a mirror your only hope is gardy. If you can get a early gardy then just use psychic lock and their start will be a lot slower. Psychic lock is probaly one of the best attacks in the game. It does decent damage and the lose of power and no way to get them back for a turn is really deadly against a mirror especialy if they are trying to get back a decent hand to get set up becuase your still hitting at them and they will be a lot slower to get set up. To tell you the truth I think gallade is a terrible card unless you have a good supporter which can get you set up which is gardy.

Then again there are a lot of different stiles of play for GG and the only way I've ever played Gardy is main attacker with being a supporting attacker.

u make a okay point but the sdeck switches between attackers depending on your match up but all most every time u r going to start attacking with gallade and and clean up with gardy but it just depends on what the match is sometimes gadry can be good and ya i have tried it alot but 9 times out of 10 u would want to start with gallade otherwise it's a dead card the rest of the game, and no point in having it in the deck .

-1 Kirlia
- 4 Celios
- 1 TSD
- 4 Absol
- 2 Steven's Advice

+ 4 Sentret
+ 2 Furret
+1 Baltoy
+1 Claydol
+4 Bebe's Research
 
Simple: Keep your card count smaller for Cosmic Power on Claydol. It will result in more draw power. Its worked wonders for me. Also, get use to it, because when Celio's gets rotated out of the format, most likely people will be playing this.
 
yo

yo everybody i lost in new mexico cause of time. and by the way claydol is a horrible tech in gg cause after u gallade for a while and want that gardy lock withe psy lock and bring down, most likely u won't get it off because of claydol's 80 hp and it's a really bad start and furret is not so hot in the deck up against mirror match. and for bebe idea since i not going to play claydol there is no point, and any ways if i was going to play claydol i still would'nt becuase it's really bad up against anything with absol or someone playing wager or mars cause u don't want to have to get rid of your resources just to support another one that may or may not give u what u want known as claydol.

but thanks for the ideas anyways.

Look at it this way

Bebe's -1
one on top -1
play pokemon +1

you are still only loosing one card so stay with celio's
 
You have a horrible match up against PLOX. 3 Gallade is bad. 2 LVL X is bad. Add Claydol cause absol does nothing to help your setup.

Edit: If you require an explanation for why your deck loses to PLOX, I suggest reading the cards in your deck starting with Gardevoir SW.
 
no steven's advice because with telepass you will most likely be 7+ cards. make it 4 tgm if you are really committed to disruption. i would go 3 gardy, 1 gardy lvl x, 2 gallade, 2 night maintenance. and make it 5 psychic, 2 fighting and 2 scramble while you are at it as to make room for at least 2 windstorms.
