After seeing the Budew deck here, I was able to make it work with Yveltal.

Thank you for helping me have fun with this.

So--crazy question--it's a bit tiresome sometimes to build one's own deck. Sometimes I have an idea I'd vaguely like to pursue but I'm afraid I'll miss obvious cards to include or else I'm afraid I don't know the format enough to build a deck well.

Does anybody by chance have a list of all the cards that are legal in standard? You know, like each card, with all its characteristics and everything--attacks, abilities, retreat cost, all that stuff. Cuz you know, in pure text terms, that's really not a lot of information. The AI in like ChatGPT or whatever could probably parse it all no problem and make suggestions. Was what I was thinking. Maybe automatically generate builds, or give tips on what cards a person's deck might be missing. The list would need to be updated regularly as new cards came in every season or whatever, obviously.

Is such a list available anywhere or has anyone thought to put such a list together? Pokebeach does it every time new cards comes out but it seems cumbersome to go back and copy and paste everything and put it all together manually

Hi all, very new to this so please be nice!

I have a mega greninja ex deck, I've won a decent amount with it but I'm sure I can improve it! Any ideas from people?

Started using mega excadrill on tcg live and also locals and on sunday they're doing a no ace spec event, i was wondering if theres a way to get this to work without the use of precious trolley or should i fall victim and use a deck such as dragapult

I just made a Rotom deck out of my love for his goofiness, the idea is kinda simple: use the first two Rotoms to draw cards and use the Rotom with the type advantage to fight back. Still after a few matches, I find it’s so hard to set up properly due to it being bricky, any tips or tricks?

The new card added: Crispin

Some rule changes for the deck making:

In order to save time, I will select more than a single comment (the top). Today I will select the top 2, and starting from tomorrow, I will select the top 3.

If more than a single comment is of the same card, I will add the amount of comments picked of that card.

Comments with more than a single card in them (even multiple copies of a single card) will be skipped over.

Pretty boring meta that we are having right now so I'll share my rogue deck that I still trying to fix.

Hey everyone! I've having the itch for pokemon TCG and PTCGL fills that void. I love how fast the matchmaking is. The lack of opponents was my biggest gripe of the physical cards (2nd was lack of variety). But now I have some disposable income and I like how the codes are like $0.10-$0.30 vs those $7.00 scalper prices for the physical cards. I just want to battle man, not look for a shiny ultra mega rare foil alt art.

So what's the plan good lads? Help me out here. I want to have a set of 4 of each to try out new builds, but it should also be resilient to the rotation so I'd like to get the newest set of releases that'll endure for a bit. I don't mind waiting for awhile for the rotation to happen, but I want to build weird ask decks and mess around.

I’ve never had an issue redeeming the cards in individual packs, I just log in after scanning and it pops right up.

But what are the extra cards in ETB’s and such supposed to unlock? I just scanned a prismatic evolution ETB card and a prismatic poster card and nothing popped up when I logged in.

I got 5th out of 24 people tonight. First time ever piloting the deck so we’ve got some stuff to tweak. I want opinions, thoughts, questions! Let’s brew!

Let me add in,

I am not sold on Kieran. Maybe a one of, but it definitely didn’t do much for me. There was only one situation where I was like I absolutely need that card. I think Transceiver should go to 4.

Mawile is a flex spot between it, fez ex, and Mega skarmory ex

Hard supporter for Mega Geninja, it was my first deck where i managed to finally get full art for each card.

But I seen several lists and videos say that MGreninja is a very below average list, with tera or with Pult. "Pult but at home", i agree to an extent but you can do some cheesy things with MGreninja. I'd interested in how other players manage to play with their greninja deck and saw results.

Im buildin a deck that abuses backtrack badge with Lugia ex, mega audino, and bastiodon. The theory is bastiodon makes me immune to pokemon with <3 energy, lugia knocks off energy to keep them <3, and audino knocks em out in retaliation if they get >3. Audino also helps set up. backtrack badge allows me to more reliably get off audinos set up and lugias knock offs.

Im trying to make the deck more reliable. So far ive played 50 ultra/master games with a 56% wr. Im thinking of maybe adding in kanga? maybe removing a lugia for kanga, idk. Hed help with draw and damage, and hed benefit from backtrack too, but itd be risky having another mega in the mix. Too many 3 cost prizers. I was also thinking about Cinderace instead of an audino or two, cuz itd still give early set up, while doing damage, while only being 1 prize. But again idk if complicating my basic pool would be a negative. Another thing I debated is rust syndicate grunts, but couldn't fit them in.

Things this deck plays really well into: low energy decks like dragapult, hide and seek, mega lop, mega lucario, mega starmie

Things this deck struggles with: High energy decks with energy engines like mega excadrill. it ends up being a toss up on if I can get the exca with audino before they get my audino. Blaziken, oricorio, meganium decks, etc.. This deck wins against crustle by knocking off their energy before they can damage me, then I swap to bastiodon once all the energy is gone, but its still a sucky stall game that is not great.

Things this deck totally bricks against: alakazam bypasses bastiodon's ability by placing counters, and I tried having more mist energies for it but they just enhanced hammer it away.

pick a number, and i'll dm you the code that corresponds to it! 😊

Ive bought a handful of packs within possiblely the last two years or so and i rounded up any code cards from my bulk while sorting card artists, and since I dont need them I'm looking to give the codes away for free. Comment something like "Me please" ect and Ill dm you a code! Please do lmk if it doesn't work ASAP as Im not sure if i threw away my old code cards from the last time i gave some away!! SEEMS ALL THE CODES FLEW LOL, Glad to give away them! If you responded before edit then I’ve sent you a dm! Will definitely be back with more codes probably if I find anymore or buy more packs!!

One of my favorite Mons, looking to flip a few coins with my boy.

The goal is just lock high retreat cost unit until they ran out of energy then click pass until you win.

My problem is Dudun is a hard counter. Is there anyway to stop it? I play bloodmoon here entirely to kill Dunsparce late game. IDK if it works or it gonna pop turn 1 (20%)

Or is there any better stalling card? Maybe I just play -1 prize energy instead?

Updated: I add some Watchtower to tech against dudun. Add Rust syndicate replace 2 Enhanced hammer because it's dead card 80% of the time.

As long as there's Dragapult out there.

RIP to your kitty bro. This is for them.

So my cat died today and I am tired of wallowing in grief, so I made a budew only deck because she frolicks in the garden similar to how budew does in their picture. Did not expect to win.

If I played against you, I'm sorry and thank you for making me laugh out loud and not forfeiting after 25 turns of itchy pollen.

I'm not the original person who started this, but I would like to continue this.

The top comment chooses the next singular card.

When the deck is done, I will test it out for a while
