I just played a 35 min match against an Alolan Ninetales with my Alolan Ninetales-GX…

That was the most annoying shit ever. Because of that ability, I barely had anything to touch it. Had to rotate it out to do damage or attack the bench directly. Shit walled my entire deck.

Luckily, my Ninetales has A LOT of HP. He kept milling his deck, so I used that to my advantage. Literally healed and retreated between my two A-Ninetales-GX and Tapu Fini-GX until he decked out :rofl:.

10222

Yeah, newer players often forget, decking someone out is a legitimate strategy. If you see a game going long, it’s never a bad idea to purposefully hold off on digging deeper.

10223

Alolan Ninetales is a broken ass card lol. Unless you have some hard hitting non-EX/GX cards, you’re getting swept. I’ve been running it and bodying people all day. They have no idea what to do because they fill their decks with 2-prize shit :rofl:.

Idk what to do to improve it right now. I know I’m missing a Lele-GX, Guzma, and maybe a Mallow.

10224

Don’t expect it to remain that way for long. Post-Rotation you’ll see a few more Non-GX attackers come out of the woodwork.

10225

Quite a few staple cards are getting rotated out this season… I’m trying to build my decks in preparation for that. The decks I have are:

Playable

Alolan Ninetales-GX

Work in Progress

Volcanion
Darkrai-GX
Gardevoir-GX

I kinda wanna try out that Vikavolt/Bulu deck too.

10226

I mean…wha?!

And hurray, more tech Supporter staples.

10227

Volcanion,Ninetales to a certain degree are going to be good post rotation. Just remember you lose to gardy, and alolan tales loses to Metagross. If you dont mind climbing over that hurdle. I wouldnt bother with Darkrai, unless its expanded.

Vikabulu is where its at, deck is amazingly fun. But its hard to pilot due to being inconsistent in the early game.if you can gather the pieces give it a shot.

That ultrabeast and supporter are a nice addition to the game, wonder how much of an impact Gladion will have? Thats his name right

10228

Yeah it’s Gladion. And it’s going to be a 1-2 of in every single deck. Just the ability to avoid being Prize Locked out of the game at the very worst is huge.

10229

I’m fucking done, fam…

10230

LET’S FUCKING GO BITCHES!!!

10231

WHAT THE FUCK DID THEY DID THEY DO TO BROCK AND MISTY?!?

I am appalled by that art style so much…

10232

Is the anime failing so much right now they need to hit the nostalgia button hard?

10233

It’s only for two episodes, because 20th anniversary, and the target audience never grew up with Kanto. Also an excuse to have Kanto and Alolan forms pair off.

Fuck the haters, Ash’s Bulbasaur kawaii as fuck

Brock stay thirsting

Nothing wrong with new artstyle, Misty looks like a girl now.

10234

I mean the second trail is arguably the best episode despite the Fuckery with the artwork. The art was always known to be shitty and to be honest there isn’t any kind of story feel yo this. At least with the others you knew Ash was going to all the gyms to be a Pokemon master. With this it is only about what goes on from episode to episode and then maybe an island change.

10235

I can’t disagree any harder without going on a expletive filled rant.

Turning the unique artstyle of Pokemon into yet another generic moeblob style is disgusting… Misty was always clearly a girl, despite her tomboy ways, and again, that artstyle and over exaggerated style does not fit Pokemon at all.

Fuck all that shit.

10236

No, please, explain.

The artstyle of the anime was trash from the start. Nostalgia don’t mean shit here.

10237

Do your eyes work?

If so, then you can clearly see the drastic drop in quality from 1996 until now.

10238

Its Pokemon. There was never any animation quality outside the movies.

10239

I’m probably one of the few that prefers Misty over Serena.

Yes this includes in the shipping dept.

10240

I swear people just say shit to say it sometimes.
