you guys forgot to include aerodactly for the rock lock deck.

I think for the call energy, it can easily fit in a blissey deck since chansey cant do anything on the first turn since her first attack requires 2 energies and call energy would be lovely in this deck

But it cant be pulled back by blissey and has no other effects like WP/FF which will benefit blissey more.

ps: what's MF ?
 
Gardevoir LX translation error

Gardevoir L.X – Psychic – HP130
Level Up

Poke-Power: Teleportation
This Power can be used once during your turn. Choose 1 of your Active Pokemon and switch it with 1 of your Benched Pokemon. This Power can’t be used if this Pokemon is affected by a Special Condition.

[P][P] Shoot Down: Choose the Pokemon in play (yours or your opponent’s, excluding Gardevoir) with the lowest amount of HP remaining. That Pokemon is Knocked Out.

Weakness: Psychic (x2)
Resistance: none
Retreat: 2


I was really excited for this card to come out, until I realized that it is not a free switch for all of your Pokemon. It is only used to make Gardevoir active or benched. You can not use this Power to Switch a Gallade for a Gardevoir EX for example.

I really do not see much of a use for this card now, as I see the English cards says Switch Gardevior
with one of your active or benched Pokemon, not any active with any benced Pokemon.
 
Yeah. The Japanese text says something like, "Choose an Active/Benched Pokemon, switch this Pokemon." I figured the "this Pokemon" meant the Pokemon you were choosing, but it's actually a self referencial back to the Pokemon using the Power.

Gardy X is still awesome though.

I understand your confusion. It's kind of weird how self-reference in attacks always is written as "jibun" (in bold), while self-reference in Poké-Powers is written as "kono Pokémon". But at least they're consistent about it - so for future translations, you can always count on "kono Pokémon" meaning "the Pokémon using this Poké-Power" (just like the standard text [if "kono Pokémon" is affect by a Special Condition, it can't use "kono Poképower"]).
 
Premier Ball cool!

[C] Call For Family: Search your deck for as many Eevee as you like and put them on your Bench. Shuffle your deck afterward.

OMG!

sceptile+vanusaur with green blast= double trouble cause for each basic grass you have it becomes
20+ for each basic grass and 10+ for each colorless energy or spacial energy that counts as every
type of energy atleast that what i belive would happen!

Works well on paper, but it's basically a SLOWER version of blissey...

One question, and one question only:

Is. Weezing. Cumulative?

If so, GG format. GG.

Weezing isn't too good in my eyes. Having to get 2 in play to have them be really annoying is difficult to do without your opponent disrupting your setup, and Warp Point/Cessation/Super Scoop Up can effectively ruin your whole strategy. It has a mediocre attack and an average evolution. If Koffing had Ascension or Call for Family then swarm would be alot more feasible.
 
I e the blaziken for some reason.

delibird can be pretty ugly with swampert/swampert ex

togekiss could be a tech in the scepteon deck too

If there were not massive damage attackers then mewtwo would be beast
 
Weezing is gonna be insane if it stacks. Getting a few into play won't be that hard because it's a stage 1 and we're getting Pachurisu.
 
You have 4 Weezing in play and try to poison me? Good, I have a fossil active and you can't poison me. Then I candy into Omastar and Galactic all your Weezing back to the deck. GG.
