What to play with Kingdra

[skarmory777]

Obviously claydol and bronzong but what are some suggestions to help the deck work better.

 

[Dennis Hawk]

Mime Counter: Regice.
Gliscor counter: Dawn Stadium.
Leafeon counter: Deoxys normal forme
AMU counter: lol
Luxray counter: Bubble coat

Gliscor, Leafeon and Luxray are one of the tougher matchups, so try to work with them. To improve overall performance of the deck, 1-0-1 Gardy/Dusknoir/Alakazam line might work before Bronzong is released.

 

[Professor Elm]

3-3 or 4-4 Claydol and 4x Warp Point.
That's really all you need. I don't like Bronzong (oh you mean the new Zong, nvm.) and Leafeon's already a lost match, so I dunno.

 

[~`Flygon`~]

Gliscor is in your favor,yea the weakness matters since you can OHKO it. Leafeon is a really bad matchup and Deoxys Normal Form dosent help much at all.

 

[DeathBerry]

Could just be me, but I've been throwing Cresselia X around in Kingdra.

 

[revdjweb]

regice all the way

check this


4-2-4 Kingdra
2-2 Claydol
1 Regice
1-1 Tech

Techs:
Alakazam: Helps you to discard cards, but in early game you cant often use the power. In late game useless
Mothim MD: Helps against Leafeon, Bellossom and co.
Bronzong MT Lunatone: Discard energy cards
Aerodactly: Your opponent can´t often use poke power.

I would add Unown G as a potential Gliscor counter.

I also like the idea of Kyogre as a "starter" in a deck that runs a lot of energy and uses Kingdra's first attack more than once a game.

 

[Brawler]

Deoxys normal is not an effective counter.

I'd say a line like this:

4-2-4 Kingdra
3-3 Claydol
1-1 Gardy

That's pretty much all you need.

and I would say don't play kingdra...

 

[Luxatos]

I was thinking of Registeel as a good shield to help get water energy in the discard.

 

[Politoed666]

No Bronzong. Just a 4-2-4 Kingdra line, a 3-3 Claydol line, and 4 Phiones. That's pwn.

I'm starting to think this is the way to go.

 

[helghast101]

one things for sure though, alot of people will probably be playing it, leafeon, and scepgrwoth are its biggest weakness.
