Garchompx12, the deck actually doesn't work better with fossils, it makes the deck harder to set up.. This version almost gaurntees t2-4 claydol and empoleon..

Brawler, I saw your idea, I didn't like it as much.. It just makes it harder to set it up.. You shouldn't need aerodactly too.. It isnt even going to spread dmg 100 % of the time, and it takes up trainer space to make the deck consistent.. empoleon by himself is a spreading beast.. The key to the deck is use prinplup aqua shower early and get multple knock outs with empoleon.. then late game bring out a omastar md when no ones expecting it..
 
Aerodactyle is NOT your combo, Brawler or mine, BUT I posted some ideas with them on GYM and Beach, WAY before your deck, dude. But, it is a pretty good deck though!!!

Thanks, man!!! NO hard feelings towards you dude, I was just Stating my point!!!
But, we are cool!!!
 
If they play a crystal beach they can lock it in your screwed. I play this deck and i play taruos and 2 counter stadiums. Nice deck though.
 
Empoleonperson, Actually that is not true.. you don't need DRE's or scramble with empoleon.. you can easily play around crystal beach.. think about it you power up your first one and all you do is snipe.. it has a 130 hp, im pretty sure it can survive long enough to power up another one on the bench.. Crystal beach does hurt the deck, but it doesn't completely screw it over..
 
Naming GG/Plox based on minor card differences is irrelevant...the matter of the fact is that this deck is brutal against decks running 4 Ralts. It's not auto-win, but it's heavily in Emp's favor.
 
hows it an auto win i dont like plox that much but i would like to know. As they plox you and wager which could just ahppen as fast you can do it.

Reading = t3ch.

If GG/Plox does not get a donk start, your spread hurts them a lot. If they burn Candy/DRE early game, a Primal Swirl is almost a 5-for-1 (not prizes, just card-advantage wise). Psychic Lock takes 3 hits to KO an Emp. Psychic Cut needs 4 flips, which means they can only OHKO 1. You run WP to shut off Sonic Blade/Bring Down. 2 Dual Splash + Primal Swirl is 2 prizes at once, and a huge setback for them because they will have lost either 2 Ralts or a Ralts and a Baltoy.

If you can't see how this beats GG/Plox, it's pretty sad.
 
Okay thanks for explaining because thats what i was looking for. I saw that but i wanted to know how.
also, i asked what his record was agianst it.
Also he runs 1-0 -1 omastar what if somethings prized it hurts thats why i run 2-1-2 Omastar..

Also i tryed this against eevees you have like a 60-40 matchup as long as you dont draw garbage. And you time omastar rite. Dual splash twice.on eevees.
 
Hi everyone I've been off for a couple days, thanks for keeping the thread alive.. Empoleonperson, I've tested 6 matches against plox and only lost one.. My REAL version of the deck easily outspeeds GG (plox) and spreads very quick.. The first empoleon you set up is to spread while powering up more empoleons on the bench.. After everything is dmged, u hit big with surf together or keep getting multple knock-outs with dual splash.. I only run a 1-0-1 omastar because I don't rely on it as much, empoleon is what gets me all the prizes, although omastar can help me with this.. If I run a 2-1-2 it takes up space and its IMO. overdoing it.. Mrdraz and xyz_sniper thanks for supporting empoleon =) We need to think of a name for it like ECO i kinda of like that.. OR maybe RockyPengiun =) Rig, the level x is nice, but its not nessacry, with so much claydol in the format it's power wont be much of a help, and its attack isn't that great either..

Thanks again for commenting everyone!
 
Um.... Empoleon Lvx is really good....
Wager+Omastar+Empoleon Lvx

You pick everything up then wager them if you win there down to one with only like basics on the field.
 
That is True, BUT you want to lay Omastar, THEN Wager to shuffle those Evolutions back into their deck!
 
the new empoleon is great but i dont believe that it will outspeed GG. GG has telepass, this deck does not.
expect to see alot more of alakazam
 
^telepass isnt much of help when you outspeed it * i watched* i even added it ran Pachi AND phione

and i Say make this deck called ECO to support going green :lol:
and i say the lvlx only works well for EXTRA 10 hp
