Okay, main idea is to use cradily to get up your gardies and start moving energies around. Gardy ds is to move energies from root fossil (key) to mew ex/w.e. you want. Root fossil nulls gardy's negative effect of its power with its body. Farmer so you can shuffle energy back in (and also can get back key pokes).

If you are using Cradily for its Power and nothing else, at least use Meganium DF instead.

 

[ZUGIADOS717]

he uses cradily so he has a reason to use the root fossil

 

[MegaVelocibot]

Roselia + React Energy, anyone?

Meganium > Cradily
Gardevoir EM > Root Fossil

Who is your main attacker?

 

[Master_Whiscash_77]

root fossil is easier to get out than gardy and then cradily works w/ root fosil

 

[Papi/Manny]

Yeah, meganium d is nice and all, but cradily just has a better basic with its body. Gardy em takes away precious gardies that you can use otherwise (and its a terrible attacker). Mew ex is the main hitter, using the opponets attacks against them. And megavelocibot, that would take away energy consistancy.

 

[MegaVelocibot]

Well, you never said what Mew ex you were using, so I thought you were using the devolution one from HP.

 

[Papi/Manny]

Thats always an option, with gardy's power, but I would need to find room...

 

[MegaVelocibot]

Perhaps you could go 3-1-2 on the Cradily line. Do you really want them sitting on your Bench, eating up space that other things could use? I see a practical application of Super Scoop up or Mr. Briney's Compassion for this deck.

For some reason, part of this thread reminds me of the time I faced off against a Crobat ex / Dark Crobat deck at States. At least I think it was one. I somehow pulled off a T1 win by Rare Candy'd Ralts to Gardevoir RS, Psyshadowing it, and attacking the Psychic-weak Zubat who had attacked a Rainbow Energy T1. Celio's Network or Prof. Elm's Training Method may or may not have been involved. Boy, was he ticked...

 

[Papi/Manny]

^lol, nice. Anyways, cradily is a pretty nice attacker against ex decks, locking them in place with posion and 50. Its a pretty sweet attack, imo.

 

[MegaVelocibot]

Sweet, perhaps. I daren't argue with that. Still, the question lingers with me; are your Bench slots being used in an efficient manner? Can you account for all 6 of your positions of Pokemon in play when you have your "best possible set-up"?

 

[Papi/Manny]

I honestly don't know, since I've never played this deck, nor probly won't ever. This is more of a deck idea for some people since I haven't posted a deck in months, nothing more.

 

[MegaVelocibot]

Understood; I can see where you're coming from, but I refer to know what I want to be where, and what alternatives I have should I not get the set-up I want.
