My poke gym that i am going to is this sunday may 21 and it will be tough i ran this deck in regionals and got in the top 16 but now that there are new cards out there i was wondering if any card will help this deck. If no new ones then what about the older ones. What cards should i take out and what do i put in. Please help thanks.

I really wish you could squeeze in 4 Plusle. You can always discard them with TVR late game, and many times they actually come in hand to spread damage around. GL at GC.

yeah i also thought about protective orb that is a good choice. Flareon what should i take out for the 4 plusles. But i must say though the t.v. reporter is actually meant to discard electric energy. I ran it with 3 and i noticed that it just got in the way. Plusles main thing is his call for family but when u run metanite u just want 4 evolved pokemon out that is macargo,
metanite and 2 dragonites. Plusle with 2 turns can bring them out. But i do see where u r coming from the plusle 2nd attack is amazing in my opinion. It really powns lbs decks. Thanks for the help can u still help me though with some other varients.
 
actuallt i did try it but i also went 3-2 and i must say that does not make me feel confodinte (i think thats how u spell it) the odds u posted arent that good no offense to u but u wont win any gym with that record thanks for the advice though.
 
Here's my list it went 3-1 at a weekly tournament

4 Rare Candy
1 Fluff Berry

Energy 15
10 Electric
4 Metal
1 DRE

Need to fit in H. Farmer though
maybe another DRE
but I think you get strategy
 
thanks but no one use desert ruins it is a real shock i mean that is the only thing that stops medichakpm ex deck and that is my arch rival deck. That is the only deck that can beat this but i can beat them with desert ruins but i used to run h. research tower. Also i really dont nedd the h. farmer because i have 5 pokemon with call for fam and thatd enough. But i do like the idea of goldduck and psyduck that is a couple of cards that i was thinking about running.
 
Wow, I'm not too sure how to fit 4 Plusle with your original list... 4 Celio is a must IMO. Helps you get out Magcargo faster, and of course the rest of your many Pokemon. I've never played the deck with Magcargo, so I'm not to sure how to help you fit in my suggestions. The only thing I can see to do is start hacking away at stuff like Warp, Rock and Retriever for more consistency. If the deck hasn't really had many problems in setting up, then keep it the way it is. However, you want to start with Plusle I assume, so that's why I reccomend taking some stuff out for the extra 2.

Try that.. note that i do not use or need the plusles... and yes this deck works
 
yeah that is a good deck list but i must ask why holon scientist i know it is godd because u get to discard a card for it which then u use dragys power to bring it back but why dont u just use the t.v reporter because u will get to draw 3 cards then discard instaed of discarding before but i will give it a try ans also will a pow work in the deck????????????????????????/
 
The scientist is for when you have an opponet who loves pigeot and keeps a full hand or since metinite has a lot of pokemon out at a time is a great way to counter them when they play stevents and this decklist got me to top 8 undefeated at regionals
 
play trode ex instead of metagross d and play holon ruins so you have a quickshearch with your magcargo holon ruins combo
 
XXl that was really dumb i mean this is metanite not dragontrode i mean throw me a bone here maybe take out the draognite for trode EX seriuosly i hope that was a typo.

edit: dumb? read the guidelines - no cracking on advice - if you don't like it, ignore it. This, combined with 'OK thx' type of replies which bump your own thread gets this topic locked.

edit2: reopened after correspondence. Leave this post that I edited untouched, be positive and don't post multiple little notes per day in your topic, thanks.
