Weezing GE
- Thread starter Dennis Hawk
- Start date
as far as I can tell through the horrid abuse of the English language here it sounds like you're saying only 1-1 Weezing should be used.
Weezing's body stacks, so you actually do benefit from having more than one Weezing in play - each Weezing is an additional damage counter for Poison.

For... 2
sychic: :thumb:I really like the idea, fishing engine works great here. Gardevoir has the weakness, Gallade too. Crobat has resistance against Gallade. Venomoth too. Its the natural AntiBDIF!!! :lol: I really like the idea of Skarmory too, but 1 or 2 max.

low energy cost for crobat and weezing. Resistance to Gallade, and free retreat. What's not to like?
Gardevoir is what is not to like. Psychic lock could just give you a dose of your own poison by not even allowing you to poison them.
Absol not only would resists you, but could also poison your set-up.
TOO MUCH POISON GOING AROUND IN THIS FORMAT.

Correct me if im wrong, but Gardevoir doesnt stop PokePowers?
*read the card*
Yes, stop Powers. Only causes problems to Crobat... but Venomoth is still viable...

I'm sorry. You should read what I post.
Not once did I mention Venomoth in my post. Surely it's been mention in this thread. But don't insult my intelligence about this game. I don't care about Venomoth, I care about Crobat. As I've liked the card since the spoilers but the current format just doesn't allow for it to be played effectively.

Hey! Its ok for me. I read enterely your post, i just post too quick... i dont want to insult your intelligence... boot of them are viables alternatives with advantages and weakness: Crobat Stage 2, 2
sychic: attack snipe, risky attack, good Power. Venomoth: Stage 1,2:grass: "shield" attack, counter attack body.Dont get upset!!! :thumb:

what does this pachirisu do
It never occurred to me that it might stack. Although there is nothing in the wording of the spoiler that is listed here to suggest that it won't, this is the type of thing that they have often ruled to not stack. If it does stack, even better!
2-1-2 Delta Queen
3-2-3 Bat
4-4 Weezing
4 Pachirisu
Good point. Gardy will hurt, but it's also weak to Psychic and as you say "low energy cost for crobat and weezing, and free retreat." The poisoning attacks of the Queen line may help.
I don't get this.

I was trying to keep the poison theme going. I forgot to type in "up" in set-up.

my bad it just seem that you were attacking my post. which for some reason triggers my nasty side.
Back to back posts merged. The following information has been added:
if your playing pachurisu, then there might be little need for windstorm. Being that Crobat and Weezing both have low energy cost then Crystal Beach might not be a bad play.
We can only hope that Pachurisu is in the format though, as nothing is for certain. Only about a week before Pokebeach has their early card releases. Crosses fingers that WPM does his thing again.

It's very interesting, until you notice "Wait a minute, what's my bench supposed to look like?"
1 Nidoking Active, at least. Yes... Possibly another benched. So we'll say 2 slots given to Nidoking.
You likely want at least 1 Nidoqueen d on the bench, absolutely. I'd go as far as to say you'd want 2-2 Nidoqueen (2 delta, 2 MT), 'cause this makes Nidoking have amazingly low energy costs and thus as good at swarming as Venomoth (though it's not protected from special effects nor does it have resistance).
So we've already used 4 out of our 6 slots. That gives us... 2 Weezings usually? Yikes... What if our starter never comes off the field? I don't think you actually want to start with ANY of those pokemon, so...
20+10*3 to do 50 damage for 1 energy and lock powers is nice... But... I just don't think you're getting the same kind of easy speed as Venomoth, which could be problematic. Sure, you can use Pride Attack... To be flipping HOPEFULLY no more then 2 coins (or you won't have room for Weezings). And it's highly expensive in terms of energy. Who knows, maybe the type advantage over Gardevoir/Gallade as well as the ability to force switches could make up for it? It just still seems like Venomoth has an easier time against things...
On a random note... Though Donphan's safe from Venomoth's poisoning effects, Venomoth is immune to the switching effect, AND is resistant to Donphan. Plus, Venomoth can KO most of it's friends with little effort (no need for special energies, so Shuckle folds. Mr. Mime dies eventually, with just a bit of overkill energy attachment, etc)
And again: If you're building this deck right, you really SHOULDN'T need Skarmory. Venomoth will kill everything before Skarmory gets a chance to help. Nidoking should be pulling up targets who will be left with too little HP for Skarmory to make a difference. All Skarmory gets to do is be a 2 prize giving target for Magmortar and a terrible starter. Sounds... Fairly useless to me.

IMO special conditions aren't gonna be better than those fast/heavy damage output decks (flariados is a rare case though).

of course i've been playing with crobat/muk since SW was released, adding weezing will be a fine addition, and NO weezing's pokebody does not stack, the spoiler you have is incorrect, i translate japanese cards and it specifically says the body can not stack
Rai
<a href="http://pokegym.net/forums/showpost.php?p=
Out of curiosity... Which line says the body can't stack? Maybe it's something about me having only taken japanese for 3 years (so I'm looking up just about every other word, AND Kanji's still a nightmare), but I don't see anything about only one "dokudokuwirusu" body being allowed per turn...
All I see is "When you check a pokemon (...Um. Maybe I'm taking 'in-between turns' too literally?), onto both [player's] poisoned pokemon, damage counters placed by poison, are increased by 1 more counter onto each individual [pokemon]"

I say that you can use Toxicroak, Weexing, Arbok, and Muk to swarm Poison on your opponents.

Grass energy + GL. Scoop?
Rai
<a href="http://pokegym.net/forums/showpost.php?p=
Except no other deck plays status effects (...Magmortar's burn. Fine. But if you're trying to counter that with Holon GL, you've got bigger problems). :/ Grass Types can just swarm anyways or heal like a nut; I don't think they'd waste a double energy attachment (if Sceptile's out, which it should be) to play a little holon GL :/

Set-up would be :
Active King
Bench:
1 Queen d
1 King
2 Weezing
I never included the MT Queens as it doesn't really need to be in here. You aren't looking for Monarchy, just Poison Rub which is 2 C s oyo ucan start damage Spreading with the Weezings Body! Evne if you DRE the King, 10+10=20, then +20 from 2 Weezing is now 40, and if they don't Evo then +20 from Weezing puts them at 60. Poison Rub somehting else up to wash and repeat. It is a damage spread deck tha tbirngs everyhting to wihtin KO range of the King your Setting up on the bench to hit for 60+ wiht the heads!
If you try t ogo a full monarchy setup, you are missing the point! Just wanted to point that out to you!
You could also tech in a King Delta as a cleaner since it does Bench Damage!

i use weezing with a speed pkmn with poison attack. venomoth is good, but depends of the opponent attack.
I like roserade SW for poisoning, sleep and 20 damage for 1 energy.
