After another few months of testing we've been building up a suspect list for voting on of cards to ban in the Unlimited 150 format: 1. M Manectric EX 2. Dusknoir DP 3. Jolteon DEX. To vote simply list the numbers 1-3 or the Pokemon's names followed by BAN or SAVE. This is your chance to help...

Hey, this looks like a Standard legal deck, the Unlimited tag might be confusing people. It won't be very competitive tbh, Mega Charizard is just too slow and most of the deck is weak to the popular Seismitoad EX. But it looks fine as a casual deck if you like hitting things for an overkill 300...

Hi, all cards from Boundaries Crossed onwards are legal for Standard play (basically, all the B2W2 and XY themed sets). I'm sorry to tell you that Arcanine isn't competitive at all in Standard, not many Evolution cards can cut it vs EXs and big Basics. One suggestion I have is Pyroar, a similar...

I have a deck that's "Chandelure + Reshiram". It also has Magmortar so you get a bit of a spread/snipe theme going on combined with the original Chandelure. It has no "lock" per se, but you are quite capable of sniping out their key players like Claydol or even things like Garbodor. With a...

I wouldn't give up on Fossils already, I know it can be a very strong deck with a lot of different options. The best of the Kanto 3 are the Majestic Dawn ones by far and the Fossil Aerodactyl too. If you focus on those ones the deck changes from aggro to control, but a very powerful control deck...

Hi, I seem to remember Fossils getting an errata stating that they DO give a prize when KO'd. I ctrl+F'd my way through the compendium and couldn't find it though. Is this rule still in place? (I think it was a Polistall deck that caused a Worlds top cut match to go on for several hours that...

Which deck tends to set up and steamroll the most? The Kyurem deck? A big Basic attacker like that is likely to crush smaller evolving Pokemon. Perhaps replace or reduce the number of Kyurems and find a Stage 1 attacker instead. This will make it more equal to all the Stage 1s in the eevee deck.

1. Prizes are quite a bad system yes, but your bench system doesn't really work. The player that's losing will find it hard to make a comeback with an ever shrinking bench. The only playable decks in this system would be hyper-aggressive decks. 2. Fair enough but you can always just keep...

Yes. The "Once during your turn" part is reset when it goes into your hand. You could be playing a different Uxie for all your opponent knows and even if they can see your hand somehow... "the game forgets".

There's going to be so many rules boxes on the Primals! X_X Omega Barrier, Mega rule, EX rule...

This card is gonna turn the Unlimited 150 format on its head! Completely changes how the late game plays out, where players will start to use the discard as a second hand, with cards like Item Finder and Junk Arm. In this respect I think it's positive, it'll reduce the number of powerful...

What rules are you using for Unlimited? If you're playing "official" rules then someone will just build Porydonk or some other turn 1 combo deck to kill you with. Assuming you're using some sort of banlist, there might be better ways to utilise Garchomp LV.X. When it was Standard legal it got...

Why Noivern when original Kyurem has the same attack for easier energy cost... and more HP, another attack and it's a Basic? You've got more than enough evolutions going on, any partner to the toads should be a Basic, preferably non-EX which will force your opponent to KO 6 whole Pokemon whilst...

The results are in for the banlist vote! Muk (Fossil) is banned with a large 80% ban vote. Miltank (Flashfire) was a bit closer with 67% ban vote. This takes effect immediately. The banlist will be reviewed in Autumn. Thanks to everyone who contributed!

The frequent events this summer have allowed testing to move along quickly and reveal some potential problem cards. Rather than just ban them, we'll collect votes on this page and elsewhere. If you have experience with these cards please share your opinion! * Vote to ban/save Muk (Fossil) *...

Hey, I just posted a new Shiftry deck of my own. I hope you can get some ideas from its structure :) http://pokegym.net/forums/showthread.php?183684-U150-Shiftry&p=2491601#post2491601

With the new Shiftry in Flashfire I thought it was time to finally build the Shiftry deck I'd been planning for ages! The main point of the deck is to get Shiftry ex (Crystal Guardians) and Aerodactyl (Majestic Dawn) out at the same time and damage the opponent's Pokemon for 4 counters every...

There's Korrina in Furious Fists that will replace Skyla in most ways, especially if it's just grabbing Candy from your deck.

If you want to buy stuff now, XY and Flashfire are 100% guaranteed safe for Standard. They will be starting an official Extended Black & White on format soon, though we'll have to wait and see how popular that turns out to be.

Just imagine taking the attack off Deoxys and sticking it onto Zoroark. When it says "this Pokemon" it would then be referring to Zoroark, the Pokemon using the attack.
