Some retailers have the new Battle Arena decks in stock already. Are the new cards in them legal for Regionals this weekend? If not, when(for the purposes of League Challenges and whatnot)?

I think you need some supplemental draw support, such as Electrode or Delphox. In the Mid/late game when your deck is mostly energy, you are gonna want ways to refill your hand to maximize your damage output each turn. The pokemon line I've been using is 4-2-4 Kingdra, 3-1-3 Greninja, 2-2...

So lots of things are broken again after this new update. Ditto doesn't seem to count the number of turns its been in play You can join multiple games at the same time, even if you dont want to.

Sounds similar to the Rayquaza EX/Eels deck from last season. Since Eelektrik can only attach to benched Pokemon you can use two different Pikachu and alternate attacking each of them or find a way to get an extra movement to the bench for a single Pikachu. Lots of Switch/Escape Rope/Warp...

We've had plenty of "overpowered" bench sitters before. Claydol GE, Pidgeot FRLG, Dusknoir DP and Nidoqueen RR to name a few. We didn't have Catcher back then and we did fine. In fact, many folks hold the opinion that the formats with these other "overpowered" bench sitters were some of the...

You mean like when Power Keepers came out and everyone used their old Gardevoirs, Delcattys and such because they were still legal because they were the same cards? I remember those days.

Trap something that can't attack active with something like Corner or Block or Trainerlock and then just wait.

A quick search on Bebessearch for things that "Force Discard" gives us: Accelegor NV(Remove energy on a flip) Alomomola DRX(Flip) Basculin BW(Flip) Carracosta NV(Flip) Cobalion EX(Only Special) Dragonite DRV(Flip) Excadrill EP Garbodor PLS(Flip) Garchomp DRX(Only Special) Gothitelle EP 48(Flip)...

Full heal wont help vs Venipede/Whirlipede. After you attack into their Poison Point, they have a turn to exploit that poison and probably KO you before you even get a chance to use full heal. I'd like to see a few SR pikachu BW in here, and maybe some DCE. I don't think you need psychic energy.

There is no Emerging Powers Sneasel, you probably mean Next Destinies. Since you already play Darkrai, why Float Stone? You probably could make that a Super Rod.

No need for Altaria. Laser+Mach Cut 2hkos all EXs. Swablu is bad starter and by minimizing my non-attacking bench sitters leaves me less vulnerable to catcher stalls. If I were to make the changes you suggested, I would have no chance of getting setup. I need to get a gabite down on turn 2...

Someone is late to the party. Other options besides Sableye/Dark Patch/Energy Switch, EtherDex and VictiniEX could involve Plasma Badge. You could either Plasma Badge+Colress Machine, or even Plasma Badge and Raiden Knuckle with ThundurusEX(though if Victini feels clunky, this would be...

PlusPower BLW. Then Junk Hunt them back?

I'd like to see some other eevelutions even if you never intend on attacking with them. You can gather 3 per turn with Signs of Evolution and then use Ultra Balls and Junipers to discard them. If you do decide to add a few other colors of energy, Ho-oh could be a fun addition as a late game...
