Hello fellow 'gymers, welcome to the 3rd and final round of swiss.
A lot of you have done VERY well in the previous rounds, but this is the true test. The challenge for this round will seem easy, but you will be facing adversity like no other. There will be a format and a restriction of some cards. It was REALLY hard to decide the "basic" Pokemon care for this round. There are some creative cards, but I feel they just arent very fun cards. This competiton is meant to be fun imo, so without further waiting, your challenge.
THE FORMAT!!!
This round has a format...There is a reason why I picked what I picked for the 1st 2 challenges. I needed a format for the 3rd round. Yeah the Challenges seemed pointless, but it was calculated. Rogue is a format as is Top Tier cards.
With that said, the decks in your meta are as followed. (decklists will be provided at the bottom of this page for your conveniance)
Victreebel/Weavile
Magnezone/Slugma/Slowking
Sharpedo/Mew/Vileplume
Wailord/Porygon Z/Reuniclus
I know what you are thinking, thats a lot of contrast to the format. This will seperate the good from the bad. Your goal is simple, make your lists CAPABLE of beating the format. The challenge cards themself are good cards yet hard to be very creative(in theory.) When you submit your entry, please provide a strategy of how to beat each deck in a simple form. Plus each Challenge will have a Ban list. With that, lets gets this started.
