For the Shining Revelry victims
I was looking at tournament results, and saw this at Brickcity, reached 5th place there (178 players).
It's been a long time since the Charizards are collecting dust, so I gave it a try and it's definitely fun. So I just wanted to share for any Revelry survivor that wants to actually use those goddamn Charizards lol
I was looking at a tournament stream and saw this
I couldn't help but laugh, since we're now just switching megas into that Blaziken blueprint lol
Funniest part is that it seems to work! It went 6-0-1 and the tie was an agreement in the last round, today I'll keep an eye open to see how far it goes in top cut.
In any case I love it, tried a couple builds last season but never thought of just doing this 😂 and more than anything else, I love the aesthetic of full shiny decks, gonna hunt for the missing mareeps now lol
Edit: deck lost in top 32 against darktina, it makes sense though, since a bulky bench mitigates the damage and remains out of ko range.
EDIT 2: there's a GALLADE version too! 😂 but since the trainer line up is for setting up, I don't see Gallade with enough fuel to keep firing 150 atks.
I had a feeling this would happen...
I stopped pulling everyday wonders, went back to mega shine, had good luck pulling two shinies I really wanted, but I had a strong feeling a Godpack was around the corner. I opened my dailies and got this, yeah, it's subpar but hey, it's a Godpack after all! At least it didn't contain a crown, so I won't kick myself for missing out on a possible small balloon 😂
LF: Greninja FT: Below + oricorio
Just trying to finally get my second frog, hope tonight's my lucky night!
When you have been on a drought and suddenly the game decides to throw you a bone
I stopped pulling everyday wonders after a long drought. I had a luck streak at the beginning then I went down to zero with a couple shinies here and there.
I'm missing quite a lot of these shinies and thought, if I can pull at least one, it'll help on the emblem search. I don't even care if that's just an Iris, it's just so refreshing to finally see a 2 star 😂
Finally, the quest is over!
I never thought that: "I'm so happy for finally having my second old man" would be a sentence written by me, and that it would be so true, but I'm finally done with hunting my staples.
To the ones still hunting, hope you get yours soon enough!
LF: Caterpie line and Magneton FT: Below (intending to trade Ori for magneton only)
Looking for 1 caterpie, 1 metapod and 2 butterfree, reserving Ori for magneton since it seems like my only shot for it here. Hopefully it'll work out for someone, thanks in advance!
Testing Jolteon EX, anyone thinking of running this in ranked?
I wanted to know if It was truly a relevant deck, since I do like jolteon ex and saw it making the rounds, went ahead, grabbed a decklist and played a bunch of matches to feel the deck.
It seems to have a decent time with most of the meta, has some trouble with Oricorio (as expected), high difficulty matches against Gardevoir, naturally it's a great deck against any water deck (eats sleep Milo for breakfast but Chien Pao may pose some trouble), and it's destroyed by Caterpie, it's almost ridiculous.
It can and will brick hard, though, at least in my experience. Most of my losses were simply because I didn't find Jolteon, and sometimes not having a cape available. So even if I like Jolteon, I'm not sure it's really a ranked candidate, but I'll continue testing (I like having different decks ready to fight against the inevitable bad streaks) and I would like to see what other people's experiences have been.
LF: Magneton FT: Oricorio, another night, another try!
Caterpie and Milotic are the best support of the expansion
I loved vaporeon ex and tried playing him since release (with greninja ex), but it always felt a bit slow and lacking some punch. Milotic came and gave it such a boost, and I'm so happy to be able to play vaporeon without feeling like I'm playing catch up all the time. Even my inteleon deck feels so much better with it.
And then, Caterpie, I love how in the sea of EX, Megas, heavy hitters, op abilities and gimmicks, it's the og caterpillar that came here, laughed at them and started taking names 😂 I like sceptile, but it was never as fun as it is now with this monster carrying him on its shoulders. He is a true dark horse and I'm just enjoying this so much (until blaziken comes and ruins the fun like he has always done to mega scizor).
Also, I just wanted to say that I love these communities, I've been working on completing my rare trainer and pokemon staples for some time now and, while I've hunted many of those trades by myself, there's also been a lot of generous players and friends hat helped me a ton in this endeavour and I love to see those things happening every day.
Trying my luck for a RR Milotic or Wallace
It's a long shot, but you lose every shot you don't take!
Luck does turn around!
I had given up on getting my chases this pack after using up my hourglasses and the gold from the bundle (the Elesa cosmetics were so good, I couldn't pass that up) and getting only a puppy girl and vaporeon from 50 packs.
It was a gut-punch since I really wanted to try and get the blinged water-engine from this pack for my vaporeon deck.
After that, with the hourglasses from ranked, the ones from the emblem and dailies, and one lucky wp that gave me a RR sableye things did turn out so much better. After pulling the second FA Milotic tonight I'm just so happy!
I'm hopeful that I can get the two Wallace and maybe a RR milotic, but in any case, I'm just so happy with the turn of events and wanted to share that, hope you all get your chases soon enough!!!
LF: Caterpie/Buterfree FT: Below
Trying to get these two, hoping this trades works out for someone!
Also got an Oricorio, but that's going for magneton only, if someone wants that.
LF: Buterfree FT: Below
Looking to find anyone interested, thanks in advance!
The disposable alt that refused to go
Sorry for the quality, took a quick picture of my laptop 😂
Created a disposable account to get a Zeraora, and after finishing that I was about to delete it, used the remaining hourglasses for wonders, hoping to snag a buterfree evo-line Shiny before that, and ended up pulling a Godpack.
Now I'll have to wait until I get enough shinedust to transfer these three 😂
LF: FA/RR milotic ex, Wallace, Elesa, Puppy girl FT: below
Had terrible luck with my pulls, so checking to see if anyone could be interested in some of this stuff. I know it's a long shot, being the first night, but I had to to shake the bad taste from my mouth 😂
Finally it's my turn to escape Shining Revelry!
Got really lucky pulling the second one at 1580 points! on the other hand I didn't get a single trainer in the way, so after this, I just grabbed a PCL and won't come back ever again.
I did get a RR bibarel which I found really funny 😂 to everyone still grinding, I hope you can pull yours soon enough!!!
