Trapinch's Energy accelerator Power + Vibrava's Anti-Kingdra Attack + Flygon's Magnezone like Body, Electivire Lv.X like Attack, Nidoqueen FR/LG like Attack + Flygon Lv.X's Super Deck Destruction Body + Rayquaza* Anti-Lv.X-Attack = overpowered

The Eeveelutions aren't this good, the Power is nice but you won't use Devoluter on your Blitza/Vaporeon/Flareon if you've more than 4 damage counters on it ... Leafeon is well, but Flygon Lv.X will knock out the Lv.X with one shoot.

Walrein/Floatzel G Lv.X have a auto-combination, just play Time-Space-Tear and use the Power from Walrein over and over.

Gastrodon is quite ... huw, should I say "bad" or "We'll never need this card"?

Luxray isn't that bad, anyway. It's T2 and with Manetric you can't hit your own bench ... or keep using Damage Swap from Alakazam Lv.X and use the Dusknoir-TM to hit your opponent's bench badly.

The new Rotom Forms need to much Energys to deal damage, and 'cause their low HP Rotom is kinda bad. (But I love it, too :D)

Nidoqueen is just ridicolus. It can stop Gallade/Spread so easily, a must 1-0-1 Tech in every Stage 2 Deck.

Weezing ... I can't figure out about this card. With the right combination it would be great.

Hippowdon's Attack = Blissey's Attack (I hate Blissey x_X). The Lv.X can win the Game so easily if you play it in the right moment. Will see some play.

Shiftry isn't really easy to play. Only a bunch of people will use it, I'm wonder how you could use it right against some Decks.

Jirachi = The better Chatot. You'll think twice before you knock out this Pokemon and give a huge advantage to your opponent.

I think Flygon will win much tournaments, don't think it's (easily) counterable

The only playable rotom is the lawnmower ( energy acceleration from the Shaymin Lv.X). The Effect of discarding 1 energy attatched to your opponent's pokemon is great especially if you decide whice ones.
IMHO, not a bad tech for any Shaymin decks...
 
Lol at emo-weezing and St. Shellos.

Flygon looks great on paper, but I have a feeling it won't do so well. It looks kind of slow to me. OHKO Lv.X (almost) attack is good, but if the opponent has a Lv.X out, then they obviously aren't exactly in a bad position themselves. The milling effect looks good though, so I would say that Flygon Lv.X will at least be used, but it does not look like the new BDIF to me. Besides, everyone knows that the new BDIF is shellos/unown K.

As far as stage 1's go for rush decks, I'm looking forward to playing
Fire Flower (Arcanine/Cherrim(/Drifblim?)) (I hope I don't end up facing Mario.), and
Jaws(Sharpedo/Weavile/Darkrai LV.X)



Just my opinion(s).
 
I'm using Luxray as my first deck

Glaceon will be my second

Glaceon
80 HP
Stage 1 [W] - Evolves from Eevee

Poke-Body: Frost Wind
As long as Glaceon is your Active Pokemon, reduce all damage done to your Pokemon by your opponent's attacks by 10.

[W][C] Ice Blade
This attack does 30 damage to one of your opponent's Pokemon (Don't apply weakness or resistance for Benched Pokemon).

[W][C][C] Ice Bind 50
Unless your opponent discard 1 card from his or her hand, the Defending Pokemon is now Paralyzed.

Weak: [M]+20
Resist: None
RC: 1

NOTE: I am not positive about Frost Wind's effect. It may reduce 10 damage times the number of Pokemon you have in play, but I think my current translation is correct.

If that is true, then that is 50 less damage. Flygon then won't knock it out as a Lv.X, and it becomes 2.5 times better then Abomasnow.

If that is true, I will buy every bonds pack I see until I get it.

I that was what I was thinking. But if the translation is wrong and it does become 10x your benched Pokemon, that would be pretty sweet.
 
I keep seeing people say that this Luxray is good. What's so good about it? All it does it do 60 for 3 and then damage something on ur bench. Could someone explain why he is apparently "good"? :lol:.....thx! :clap:
 
Oh. Well, Ok. lol.
Can I see a translation of Walrein? I've heard about it but I don't know what it does. Thx. :smile:
 
Oh, Well, I've looked through this thread at least three times and I never saw it. Oh well, I'll look somewhere else. :biggrin:
 
I really hope that even though Dialga Lv. X is being reprinted in a tin that it is rotated right now. If it is not, there will be a broken deck next year. Shiftry + Diagla Lv. X = Broken. If you can get that combo up your opponent can't win. You pretty much have them flipping tails for the power and they don't get a turn EVER, which is pretty insane, if that body is correct at the moment.

DANGGG DREW, you discovered the secret formula! Yeah, this makes Dialga Lv. X go from the worst Lv. X to a mediately good one.

I'm guessing that the flipping tails thing is only during your opponent's turn, though.

Does anyone know when this set is going to be released in english? A exact or approximate date please? Thx. :biggrin:

I have one more question.....why do people like Alakazam's Damage Swap so much? It's the same thing as Cresselia's Full moon dance except you can't put it on ur opponent. Can someone explain why people like that so much? :lol: thx.

Firstly, you can use Alakazam's power as much as you want. Secondly, there is a TGI invention named Damage porter. It puts all damage counters on one of your opponents Pokemon. You can combine this with cards like Turtwig GL or Gyarados G, as they both have high HP

It is simple to see why. You take all your damage put it one one Pokemon and then you can use Poke Turn to scoop it up, or you can use Palkia Lv. X to put the card into the Lost Zone. You are protecting your main attacker, which means unless your opponent can OHKO it, it is going to keep attacking and not taking damage as it will be moved away.

I'm pretty sure shiftrys body says all flips are tails on the opponetns turn and since dialga is used on your turn this combo doesn't work. If shifties power worked all the time then md darkrai is so good in there.
