Hopefully. We try to release them at the beginning of the week, and we took a week off since most of us were busy, so it should hopefully we up around this coming weekend.
 
Ryan, I'm sure the work wouldn't be as hard to do if you inlisted a few of your friends to help. It doesn't have to be a 3-man job.

Yeah. That's been a topic of discussion.

I've been paying a lot of attention to people who have been posting a lot on the forum recently. Some people who might become Cardiologists might actually surprise you. Keep up the good work though, guys. I've seen a lot of construction and less flaming recently.
 
I would actually run it like this:

3 Bulbasaur
2 Ivysaur
3 Venusaur
3 Mareep d
2 Flaffy d
3 Amphy d
4 Castform
1 Holon's Magnemite

Aside from it's obvious synergy with Boost, Amphy serves two big purposes in this deck. First, it allows you to abuse the Holon/Castform engine, arguably the best engine in the game. Second, it gives you an answer to Sally d and Latias*, two cards that wreck you otherwise. There's also a lot of other colorless weak Pokemon out there that this helps with.
 
You can exploit the castform engine ONCE you setup a Ampharos d. I would think it might take a few turns to set one up and when it finally is setup, you don't want to just keep drawing cards. Just my first thought though.

Agreed.

Your first Mentor will probably be for only 1, and maybe 2 d pokemon, so you'll be delta drawing for a measly 1-2. It will take an ampharos up and go before you can really start drawing well, and for that you'll need a lucky opening hand, really. Because you'll spend your fist supporter trying to mentor. I don't think it's as fast or effective as other castform-draw decks.
 
i would sooner use meganium
with react energy, roselia, and the whole grass conversion thing, he could be fun to play
 
my personal build on the venusaur was with magcargo and jirachi (altho i often thought of dropping the latter). I used the 2-2 cargo to smooth over for whatever i needed, especially abusing the different colourless energies like warp, heal etc, then TV'd for them. It worked quite nicely! :)
 
Could Venusaur, Sceptile and Blissey ex all fit into this deck?
Something like this...
4-3-4 Venusaur
2-1-2 Sceptile (Energy Trans)
2-2 Blissey ex
 
good article.
also y not try venasaur with meganium ex?
they work very god by giving out energy and healing.
theres no need for roselia also if u use meganium so u dont need react and can use the space for mor pure grass for meganium to attach...
 
You have to put Roselia in everything, eh? The Sceptile with Energy trans is probably the best way to run Venusaur as of now.
 
nah i still think meganium is the best way to go with scep tile u move t but with meganium u get it...
and it heals..
