Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Playing Feraligatr WILL NOT result in delicious cake

What will prevent someone simply teching in 1-0-1 Feraligatr or 1-1-1 Feraligatr line in a deck like Kingdra; but never really use the tech.
lol, it might hurt their deck's consistency.

P_F said in a previous thread it had to be at least a 2-1-2 line of Gat'r.

I stand by the fact that the best match for Gatr is Pelipper. There is a couple of reasons for that:

You OHKO pretty much anything with 5 energies, which arent hard to get with 2 Claydols up.
Your plan already includes shuffling the energies back, therefore isnt hurt by Looker/Wager.
Yes, your Pelipper will most likely get OHKOed back but you can swarm them faster (or as fast against decks like gyarados) as they can.
You dont need to use Belt considering you OHKO everything anyway.

Right now Im working on a strategy against Plox, since that seems like the only bad matchup.

Arguments like this are the reason I feel safe in my bet.

Assuming that you'll hit 5 water energy per turn, or that you will get two Claydols, a Feraligatr prime, and a Pelipper online against high caliber decks in this format is really on the fringe of what should even be considering.

All it takes is Gyarados either Bright Looking or Reversaling your Claydols and you will be up a creek without the crucial draw power to try and hit waters.

Curesgar has means of making things difficult for you.

Luxchomp is.

And that's just tier one decks.
 
I bet out somewhere like Alaska they'll only have one Master show up for States, so they'll have to give him the trophy. He'll be running Meganium/Typhlosion/Ampharos/Feraligatr, too.

Gatr + Gyarados SF. Dragon Beat is kinda lulzy.

Worth more lulz than most Gatr variants.

"What are you running?"
"Gyarados."
"Oh? Haha, Karp start, that must kinda suck..."
"Well, I have Rose, Candy, Gatr, and four energy, so I'm actually really enjoying this hand."
"What"

Y ai was kinda thinking the same thing you can play Gyarados SF and Feraligatr Prime satrt playing it liek a regular Gyarados opening with Sableye Impersonate for Roseanne on turn one and get two magikarps. Get a Gyarados wiht a Bebe's and hop ethat you have another Magikaro you drew then Impersonate for a Felicities and discard the two 'karps whill evolving the one on the bench. You do 60 for nothing or 80 with belt. Wait until you get a DCE or two on Gyarados then come out with 'Gatr Rain Dance and just keep doing 120 Damage plus possible energy discard every turn while healing with Dawn Stadium every water Energy you attach, Now to only get this deck to work consistantly...
 
There's still a week left. I'm sure someone can lucksack their way through a meta of Charizard and Donphan.
 
I don't hate it, it's my favorite game, actually... next to HL2.
 
Yeah I think like 25 or something people went there and Jay couldnt go so theres a good chance of it winning there.

Well, there is some falsehood in this. I agree the deck won't win a states, but it could (if tweaked JUST right) do rather well. Mine sets up pretty bloody fast and wrecks gengar, despite my trainers and even without the Lumineon MT- which completely trashes spiritomb lock if they have a Gengar, obviously. Just too easy to get a feraligatr going around the same time as they get a gengar, then just swing for knockouts every turn. They play a single expert belt and you come ahead- they don't and they don't one hit the Pelippers, so you get ahead that way.

This works against many decks.

Not Luxchomp.

My fave move against Gyarados with Pelipper/Feraligatr is to use both Lumineons to put Magikarp active from their hand, then bring up Gyarados. Every turn.
