PTCG/O General: Waifu Edition

Oh hey, the new set comes out on my birthday, neato.

I fucking love how shiny Mega Gardy is getting all this love from the recent film.

Figures, plushies, keychains, and now chards? We're living in a golden age.

Opened 11 FC packs and only got a White Kyurem. Are the pull rates that terrible, or am I just a shit?

u wot m8?

Is this related to the code exploit?

>>26176139
>TotT: Have you been testing out any new decks with cards from Fates Collide?
M Alakazam is obviously shit, as predicted

Fossils aren't a deck, they're a splashable engine. Any deck that can run DCE can use it. Dangerous Tentacles is game-changing, especially with a Target Whistle tech. But I'm not sure if it's worth running considering how much room it takes, especially since Archie/Maxie has other good targets like Gallade or Barbaracle.

Serperior and Snorlax are good rogues. M Audino has a good matchup against NM+Mew.

Wally's Carbink is really fucking good, but I'm not sure if it'll be on the tier list. Haven't played against enough NM to really test it competitively.

I'm still messing around with Altaria, Diancie, Genesect, Kingra, and Delphox.

And with N getting reprinted, no one's talking about Random Receiver.

I just went through an Elite Trainer box and only pulled Delphox Break, Umbreon EX and Bronzong Break

got reverse holo Mew in a seperate booster

I bet the servers are running more smooth now since more than half their userbase was banned for using an exploit which was created by them fucking up. It actually proved that even with cheats it takes literally hours to get the cards you want. I was finally released from that shitty client...thanks codes

So I just got this from an old ass structure deck I had. Should I open and try for the FA Mewtwo, or trade it? And how many packs is it worth?

Grabbed both of the 3 pack pin Fates Collide blisters. With the 6 packs only managed to pull one UR but it was the Full Art Mega Alakazam, so it wasn't too shabby.

>>26176485
Nice pulls. I love that Sylveon card.

>>26176485
Where'dd you get that pin?

newfag here
just one question: the tradeable boosters are the ones with 5 or 10 cards?

>>26177383
nevermind I'm retarded, gonna buy that box tough.

Why do some attacks refer to "Your opponent's Active Pokemon" and some "The Defending Pokemon" ? Aren't they the same thing?

>>26177391
Packs obtained via tournaments, code redemption, or bought via gems are tradable. No other packs are tradable.
No other factors affect whether or not a pack is tradable.

>>26177423
oh, i think it's that lock, right? my bad
thanks, anon

>>26177422
"The Defending Pokemon" targets the one that is defending, and it means that it will only affect that particular pokemon on the next turn, so the effect wouldn't apply if your opponent switches. By "Active Pokemon" it refers to any Pokemon that is defending (not the one in particular who is receiving the attack).

But yeah, it's awkwardly worded.

>>26176485
also, they fixed the printing quality on the new generations promo cards. they aren't the extreme glossy shit printing like the mew promo was.

ToTT: Serperior is a fucking god.

No it stands no hope competitively but holy fuck it's amazing to just chew out every single Greninja or Garchomp netdecker one by one and then laugh and tell them that was last season and they need to keep up. It holds it's own against most other decks too so long as you don't tails every flip. Finally a halfway decent Grass deck.

I feel like this isn't as consistent as it should be.

Also does anybody have a Revitalizer and Spinarak for trade?

>>26178445
No because you didn't pull a single FA or Altaria, and you got two Mews which ATM is worth more than half the full arts.

Do we ever run tournaments in this general? Considering how often people give away codes, it could be fun if they instead put them all in a giant pricepool for a tournament each month or something.

ey guys, anon here. I'm the lad that was trying to get 1000 points within 24 hours (technically 12, because I have to work tomorrow and I need sleep).

>>26178984
Jesus, congrats, anon!

>>26179038
Yveltal Break is already the best card in the set, it could have a useless attack or ability and still see use just to give Oblivion Wing/Fright Night more HP.

Do you guys think the ladder will cycle and be the same rewards from a previous one (same ex, promos, but new fates collide packs)?

I love how the tournament RNG basically rigs a player. There's no excuse to never go first and have all copies of an essential card prized every game.

>>26180524
>>26180540
If we get CP4 my guess would be it would drop between November and February's set, assuming XY11 is one of our last XY sets. That gives us one season of regionals and Cities of a "different" format where things like M Ray thrive.

>>26180571
>>26178322
why doesn't pokemon email me any codes? :|

>>26180592
From what I can see right now Mega Ray, Raichu/Golbat, Alakazam/Hoopa, Fighting, Zoroark/Yveltal and MewBox are going to be the best decks out the gate post rotation.

A meta without an ability to pick pokemon up off the board is going to be pretty silly with Shaymin around.

>>26180571

The newsletter codes expire a month after they've been sent out IIRC.

>>26180618

Have you opted in to their newsletter? The option to do so is in your account settings on the main site.

>>26180622
>Fighting without Korrina or Focus Sash
>Raichu without Muscle Band, Crobat, SSU, or AZ

I agree with the other decks though.

>>26180645
>The newsletter codes expire a month after they've been sent out IIRC.
Aw. I figured that'd be the case, but with the recent code redemption mess I was hoping it wasn't. Especially since my older ones actually say 'expired' instead of a code, whereas the recent ones do have a code still (that just says 'invalid code' when input.)

>>26180647
Raichu will stick around since it beats up on Ray which everyone will undoubtedly run unless it gets heavily teched against.

Considering most post rotation decks will run Sky Field, I wonder how useful Barbaracle will be in a format where outside of Dark everyone will be running the same stadium.

>set down your own Sky Field vs Ray
>evolve the 1-1 Barbaracle line since Archie is dead
>no more DCE without Hex which means no drawing and no Lysandre
Might be fun.

>>26180745
M Ray would have to be tier 0 to warrant a significant Raichu presence considering it will get its shit pushed in by every other deck in the format, especially but not exclusively by Yveltal/Zoroark. While I do think M Ray will be good, Yveltal/Zoroark will be its competitive foil while also being a great deck outside of that specific matchup.

I honestly am curious if Barbar will see play because Hex Maniac's viability is, post rotation, severely limited. Without Compressor, we can't just run an arsenal of 1-off supporters and expect to have them when we really need them.

PRC-on will be an interesting format, no matter how long it lasts.

>>26182619
Servine + Forest of Giant Plants + AZ/Scoop Up/Devolution Spray for permapara
Then Serperior only needs one energy to attack, making AZ/Max Potion literally free
And Coil > Slashing Strike does 180 damage before Band, letting it 2HKO the format
You also get fun toys like Revitalizer

>>26182649
That sounds like an inconsistent, albeit potentially faster version of Memepharos

>>26182658
Ampharos needs four energy to attack, damages itself, is an EX, and has to not only fetch a Spirit Link but wait a turn to evolve. And it still only 2HKOs things.

Meanwhile, Servine/Serperior evolves without waiting, can be tutored through Level Ball or Compressor+Revitalizer, isn't an EX, only needs one energy, etc. Sure, you need a coinflip, but you can proc it multiple times per turn while fully healing each time.

Both decks are shit, but Ampharos is a joke compared to this.

>>26182696
Oh, and I forgot to mention that since Servine's paralysis is an ability, you're free to run any other primary attacker alongside it. It's not like AZ and Scoop Up are hard to tech into other decks.

Any anon there could give me the ratio for pulling a ultra rare/ secret rare/ full art / EX/ etc... ?

>Cheren for ladder

Wow thanks

>>26182995
Literally the same card

I've got a question, Anons.
I am able to flip a coin in such a way that it will give me the desired outcome pretty reliably. Basically, I only fail to do this 1/100 times. I have been thinking about abusing this skill and this TCG has a lot of effects which resolve around coinflips.

How are coinflips handeled in tournaments and who flips the coins?
What kind of coins are used in tournaments?
What would happen if the referees or the players suspect anything? Would I need to change the coins?
And most importantly: Am I able to get away with this?

Anyone playing this on their tablet currently? Are the servers down? Getting a server message for the past week

>>26183247

>>26183248
I play on my Note 4. It tells me the servers are offline. They might have updated the apk or it might actually be down. I haven't played in a few days.

>>26183247
Actual metallic coin-coins can damage valuable cards. So the in-game plastic coins are used. Or even dice. If you're trying to rig by using actual metal coins it's unlikely you get to use them in the first place. Because you are not chucking that shit around near my $40 Shaymin FA or w/e.

>>26182658
except a good grass deck chews up a good chunk of the online meta.

>>26183665
>a good grass deck
There is no such thing in standard and there is only one in expanded.

>>26183766
Are you baiting or legit retarded

So how do reprints work in expanded tournaments? Is the fates collide N already legal in expanded since it was in it before? or does it still have the 3 week time limit

>>26183809

You can use them immediately IIRC inb4 someone making greentext mocking you for not using older versions of N

>>26183822
I actually like the newest version of N over its three alternative prints. Of course it's full art is the best.

>alakazam secret down to $12

>>26183904
That's what happened to Gyarados too. They're just destined to be worthless.

>>26183935
>They're just destined to be worthless.
Because they're shit cards with zero meta or casual impact. Viability is the deciding factor when it comes to value, nothing else, no exceptions.

>>26183766
You don't consider Vespiquen/ Vileplume good?

>>26183876
Where?

>>26183949

>Viability and being a goddamn Charizard are the deciding factors when it comes to value, nothing else, no exceptions.

FTFY

>>26183972
Charizard has casual impact.

>>26183127
Mew, Rockets and Delphox are p nice, but does not justify the 90 dollars at all.
It almost never does. Pokemon cards are too cheap, unlike with Magic. You cab easily make your cash bavk by buying a booster box for Magic.

>>26183978

I know, but he was claiming on how viability is the deciding factor for a card's price when Charizard is rarely viable and the EXs are still costly. I remember having to dissuade people from buying Flashfire boxes/packs by reminding them that they could pull nothing but Magnezones and Toxicroaks

>>26183991

>You can easily make your cash back by buying a booster box for Magic.

If you can pull enough good Mythics/Rares (or that one card that costs around the same as the box)

>>26183949
This is true but you also have to consider this is especially strange given the rarity. Why is the secret as cheap as the full art? Well since there's only one secret rare it's actually pretty easy to pull, so we have $7 secret rares now.

I want it.

I've got 500 coins in online TCG, are any of the new theme decks good? Also any good decks built around tyranitar/dark and dragon types? I'm just restarting my Pokemon TCG career and I'm loving it.

even double sleeves is overkill when the binder itself provides a second sleeve. Assuming your home has a regular temperature and is neither sweltering (in which case double sleeves don't even help), nor a cold-ass garden shed.

Just went up against a guy he played Sycamore with six cards left in his deck how did he not lose? Every other game i've played when you can't draw you lose

>>26191612

The deck out win condition only occurs when your opponent can't draw a card at the beginning of their turn.

>>26191612
if he beat you THAT turn, then he won. In Pokemon, if it's the beginning of your turn and you can't draw, you lose.

Alright, I don't understand shit of the trading system in this online game. How does it work? How can I see which one of my cards and/or packs are tradeable? What does that lock and number mean at the bottom of every of my items? I mean, I have three Venusaur EXs, yet I can't trade any of them. To me it's kind of vague all together, and the client doesn't explain pretty well.

>>26192287
How many packs you have? I have extra nm pokes 2 joltik and 3 pumpkaboo.

>>26192799
How is this difficult?
The locked number shows how many copies are non-tradable.
The non-locked number shows how many copies are tradable.
They don't explain this because the target demographic of children can figure this out instantly on-sight.

>>26192827
Yeah, thanks. How do I get copies that actually are tradeable? Are the ones I get from daily challenges tradeable? Are the ones I win in Versus Mode tradeable? What does the 'tag item for trade' do? Does that make an item tradeable all of a sudden?

And let's say I have 4 packs of which 1 is tradeable. How do I open the 3 non-tradeable packs without (accidentally) opening the tradeable one?

Thanks in advance anon.

>>26192908
>How do I get copies that actually are tradeable?
Only packs and cards obtained via code redemption, winning ticket tournaments, or bought via Gems if you're in Canada are tradable. Nothing else, no exceptions. There's no way to unlock a card, before you ask.

>What does the 'tag item for trade' do?
When you do a private trade with someone, they'll only be able to see the cards you have tagged for trade. That is all it does. This is what people mean when they say binder in the trade chat.

>And let's say I have 4 packs of which 1 is tradeable. How do I open the 3 non-tradeable packs without (accidentally) opening the tradeable one?
Locked packs will always open before unlocked packs.

why does playing trev break make people upset

why do people hate every good deck

>>26193288

trevenant and vespiquen/vileplume are my least favorite decks because of how much emphasis they put on the coin flip to determine who goes first

>>26193306
might be to my fault, but I usually choose to go 2nd with trev since wally on 1st turn isn't guaranteed. ascension is way more reliable.

Will I be able to get a Night March deck without spending a cent on this online game?

>>26193288
Because item lock is literally cancer.

And I'm not throwing around "cancer" like some buzzword meme, I mean the actual definition in that it actively holds back and degenerates the meta state, doubly so on a local level.

there should really be like a 1 hr ban for conceding

built a dumb giratina deck for ~50$ this weekend but it's slow as shit and i can't get double dragon quickly and set gira up fast enough. my deck engine is probably shit so here it is

sycamore x4
n x2
birch x2
skyla x3
trainer's mail x3
ultra ball x4
acro bike x2

>>26193454
Why? if you know you have no win condition its the honorable thing to do, instead of playing it out. At least IRL.

And then you get those people who know they can't win and stall anyways.

Depends what you mean by "nice."

Is it pretty? Absolutely.
Is it expensive? Kind of. $12-$13 range.
Is it good? Yes. There's a stall deck centered around it in both formats. Only really dies to Vespiquen and M Sceptile EX.

>>26194813
I really like starting with Reshiram, that's why I like having 4 more. Starting with him and powering up Giratina on the bench, Hydreigon-EX for the free retreat makes the strategy pretty good.

>>26194880
>>26194813
Oh, and Hoopa can't fetch Reshiram, making 4 pretty attractive, as hitting him speeds you up considerably.

That supporter line is pretty fat, and I don't like Skyla at all, too slow. I also see a world of problems in your trainer lineup in general. Namely, red cards and enhanced hammers. I'd much rather focus on speeding up the Tina setup rather than slowing the opponents down.

My suggestions:
+2 Reshiram
+1 Hoopa EX
+1 Flareon EX (Debatable, but I think in a deck like this moving energy around is stronger than item lock from Toad)
(+2 Shaymin EX)
+1 VS Seeker
+2 Fighting Fury Belt
+4 Max Elixir
+1 DDE
+1 DCE
+3-4 Fire Energy

-1 Seismitoad EX
-1 Xerosic
-3 Skyla
(-2 Birch) I suppose this is the Shaymin slot
-2 Red Card
-3 Enhanced Hammer
-1 Professor's Letter
-2 Acro Bike
-2 Grass Energy
-2 Psychic Energy

I didn't count if the numbers match, but I'm on a move posting from the phone. Should be about right though, and at least give you a rough idea, right?

>>26195294
thanks a ton, i'm fairly new to the tcg so i used the pokebeach tina skeleton and just added a few cards to make what I thought would work.

>>26195624
You do understand Latios is over a year old, right? And it's seen virtually zero competitive OR casual play since its release?
Is there any reason why you think a year-old card with no history is suddenly going to see competitive play halfway into an established meta?

>>26195675
I run the roller skates since I can't figure out what else would be useful for the last two slots. I use Pluspower in expanded.

>>26195677
You're an idiot, the deck is for laddering quick and easy wins against all the tiny basic decks everyone runs. Now that Devolution Spray is back you can more reliably donk shit. If you fight NM you win 99% of the time. Guess how often you fight NM. You just quit against an EX that isn't Shaymin since without Pluspower you can't kill them.

>>26195828
>>26195861
Jirachi is fine as a one-of without Mew. With Mew it's an excellent one-of since you use its attack for free with Mew. The deck probably only needs 2-3 Mew, which is what I'm testing. There are no decklists with it yet since Fates Collide is not tournament legal.

I never seen a Holo card like that.
Also, how much are the Target blisters?

>>26196878
10 bucks for a 3 pack and holo, 20 for 6 and two holos. The packs are usually an assortment of XY sets, sometimes you'll find old BW sets and even HGSS packs. Usually worth a buy if the holo promo has some value. I once saw one was an XY Trevenant.

>>26196878
>I never seen a Holo card like that
Because it's an old league promo from Gen 4

That Copycat is a League promo, they have a tendency of being added into value products after a while.
