Turn 2 Bebe's for Claydol or Weavile the sooner you can Weavile Shadow Charge the better.
Garchomp straight up OHKO's Pokemon.
 
i dont think you need Metals, theres nothing running around in the format (metagame) that is weak to metal
Energy searches or more Roseannes could help too ^^
 
I would just play Garchomp Weavile Darkrai you get three dark energy(basic or special) then use dark engage and with darkrai X ou will do at least 100.
 
Yeah your Pokemon, and energy, and trainer lists are to uneven are there are like ones of necessary things and larger quantities of unnecessary things. Drop the Metal, and try to balance your energy line. Drop the Castaway for another Roseanne's, as you only have one tool. You don't need THAT many Wager, And you might want to drop some of the Bebe's for Celio's. I don't follow why you need the Tauros or Plusle. More than often, you won't need them. It ends up clogging your deck and they are cards that will most likely be found unnecessary if the deck works the way its supposed to. Tauros is especially pointless. If your playing him JUST for Crush Chance, you could drop your Pachirisu line for a Tauros line. His power isn't something thats needed in this deck, especially because you already have Stadiums and Windstorm(s) in this deck.

^ You need less Fighting and more Water/Psychic.

You actually see more blissys/darkrais than Mag and G&G?? LOL!!!
 
I think that your energy should look more like this.
4 special dark
3 psychic
3 water
2 fighting
1 fire
1 grass
1 lightning
there are 15 that i think will do much better in the meta game.
hope it helps
 
If you want to play with Weavile, put in at least 1-1 Darkrai Lv.X.

But as I stated before in another thread, the Togekiss build is much better in my opinion.

And don't player Wager without any other draw supporter. You need 2-4 Steven to get your gyms and PlusPowers quick enough.


@ Muscovy Level X

Doesn't work without energy acceleration.


4 special dark
Maybe read Garchomp's Body more carefully. ^^


Here something about what type of energy is most important:

1. Psychic (G&G, Monarchy, Mario)
2. Water (Magmortar, Blaziken, Ape)
3. Fighting (Blissey, Darkai, Electivire)
4. Lightning (Togekiss, Feraligatr, Empoleon, Honchkrow)
5. Darkness (Banette, Dusknoir)
6. Fire (Sceptile-stuff, status-grass-decks)
7. Grass (Claydol, Swampert)
8. Metal (Weavile, Walrein)

It depends on your local metagame, but I think this is a good standard priority list for energy in Garchomp. In Weavile builds you need more Darkness Energy, of course.
 
ok, then 4 basic dark and a 1-1 darkrai tech so that with weavile they do extra 10 damage :biggrin:
 
all of you are SO BAD AT POKEMON my roomates and i are laughing it up at flygon99999999999's INCREDIBLE suggestions and the kid who suggested SPECIAL DARK.
 
if anyone wants 2 play ill test on redshark just to sh*t on your dreams read the cards and what they do i can't stand ignorant horrible pokemon "trainers" and Garchomp's attack requires 3 colorless energy so that means u can attach any combination of 3 energy and special darks turn off your body which by the way doesn't change you type just does 110 if u have a basic enregy attached that is the same type as the defending pokemons weakness. I told you exactly how to play the deck how do you not understand. I wasn't posting the deck for help (thanks tho) i know how to play this game we like to call pokemon.

i play pachirisu 4 a reason

and has anyone heard of battle frontier o yea it shuts down your deck and thats where tauros comes into play

I don't think you need Darkrai, Abyss.

I don't see a reason to play special dark over basic dark. At least plusle can get back basic dark, and other such tricks.

Sounds like someone's mad. Dude, part of playing pokemon, is taking a loss. Whether it be in battling, or in deck building. Sometimes you have to accept that a deck you make just is not a great deck. I personally do not see how its so bad, seeing as a variation of this deck made top 4 and VA States in Seniors, but hey, I'm not a deck builder. Oh, and try putting periods/commas in your sentences so they're easier to read.
