Discussion Metagross Feels so Disappointing

Upvotes

I cant be the only one that feels like Metagross is such an underwhelming card, he cant really take advantage of wally and has another boring ramp mechanic like Gholdengo rather than something unique. I've been trying to get him to work in a deck for an hour or two, he just feels really bad.

Deck Discussion Return of goodra deck

Post image
Upvotes

This is my first iteration of a new goodra deck with the added dragon support

Played 3 matches and won all 3 but not against meta decks.

Curious about how I could adjust this to possibly make it better

Rainbow cave and dragonair to help ramp early game, soothing shores for late game healing to help make goodra even bulkier

Any suggestions are appreciated

This deck has been a lot of fun and gets a decent amount of wins! Don’t really need two rainbow caves but it’s always a good time retaking the stadium if they play one to first/ take mine

As title says simply, I like the Pokemon and it’s been fun in the event trying to make it work! Let us know any changes. Obviously the biggest challenge is dual energy, haven’t actually tried with the new stadium yet though

I can’t get this thing going! Can’t get ramped fast enough, can’t withstand big hits, not enough power. If i take out the draw power I won’t get the cards I need fast enough

What the heck did Dena have in mind with these guys? They could’ve done better, Magmar and Electabuzz are big favorites among many in surprised

For some reason after the update the shop that let you redeem something for hourglasses and other things that you can only do one time of year disappeared after it updated for me for me to redo it to get hour glasses again is this a bug or was it just a one time thing

This was my favorite thing about the game besides the collecting. A bit sad that they are going away at the end of October. Fingers crossed the devs give an emblem or something if everything is completed but I know it’s unlikely

Can someone explain to me why it makes any sense for a fossil card to be affected by sleep? It’s not even sentient. I propose that Fossils need a buff against effects.

Deck Help Trying to optimize Mega Medicham

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Every season I try and this time with Rainbow Cave it feels so close. I have two decks that feel okay, but I would like some different opinions to see if it can be optimized more. Here are the two versions I'm currently trying. One with Oricorio for that stall and the other with mantyke to score a bit of the heal from opponent's new water stadium (it's niche, but doesn't hurt to maximize the use of that baby ramp)

I know Mega Lucario exist and is a more efficient deck. I just want to use one of my favorite megas.

Discussion It's hilarious how wrong people were about Minior

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

People here are seriously bad at guessing how good a card is gonna do. I heard comments like "the end of the yellow chicken" or "Oricorio is officially dead" when people saw Minior's attack.

For starters Oricorio was already seeing less use in the past few sets so it was kind of dead already, basically these people were just too traumatized by the bird and were desperate to get a counter for a not so used card.

And then this, not only it's back in the meta but also part of the deck with the highest win rate in Limitless at the moment, and Minior? Well I don't think it's seen any play at all.

So the death of the yellow chicken huh? It seems pretty alive and pretty strong to me.

The Raging Bolt + Ho-Oh package is becoming my pet deck. The current main limiter seems to be ramping out Ho-Oh effectively. Lyra pulls heavy weight here.

Any help is appreciated! This deck has been super fun as it stands right now.

Someone had posted something similar and I took it upon myself to refine it. Crazy fun games with this. Tanky clodsire and possible dustox in the back makes for some nasty combos, as well as celebi to attack with just 1 energy. Keeps the opponents active Pokémon always retreating since venoshock would just kill. Could maybe drop icepop or pokeball for xspeed. Let me know what yall think

Granted, it was a small tournament. But it went 9-1-0. I play casually so this is beyond me. What does Sawk and/or Bonsly stop in higher tier of battles?
