Probably an ancient discussion, but I think we need to revive it now with a new series coming up! GG is still the deck to beat in the metagame. People is for the moment fiercely discussing cards to play/tech in order to increase their chances of victory or at least even match ups versus GG. In order for GG to survive it will be forced to adopt to the new climate. In MD we got the Empostar deck that looks really interesting, as well as the Eeveelutions. We also got Garchomp Lv X that probably will make more people play Garchomp variants.
So which cards (except for the Gardiline) do you think is the best to run in a GG. I myself have been trying a bunch including Furret, Claydol, Ampharos (SW), Dusknoir, Dugtrio (CG) etc. I think Dugtrio is a must now with the penguin in order to protect your bench. Unless the Empoleon deck you are facing is running Cess.Crystal it will have a hard time against you. I doubt it will be easy to combine a Cess.Crystal and a well timed Omastar. Dusknoir is pretty much staple, along with Claydol. I personally prefer Furret over Claydol, since Claydol always seems to get in the way for me, and I always have bad luck when drawing cards from the deck. Also Telepass allows you to use multiple supporters per turn, so it can be hard to keep the hand limited at 6 cards constantly.
