Game is supposed to be up but the updater keeps updating over and over again and I can't even uninstall the game to re-install it..god damned, what to do?
>>
>>33176770
You can use revo-uninstaller to force the uninstall. That is an old bug and you have to uninstall then reinstall to fix it the loop.

>>33173632
Upping your elo is not advantageous. You want to have win streaks. And since there is only 1 game instead of best 2 out of 3 matches no matter what deck you use eventually you will find losses. Upping your elo pits you against more meta decks and those greater chances to lose. For the purpose of grinding rewards upping elo is rarely a good idea.
>>
>>33177050
Yeah was able to do it, but damn I thought that the new set is already in the game with this update but nope, we'll get it on Friday?
>>
>>33177191
August 3rd. Technically the set is there but nobody is allowed to redeem codes until the 3rd so the cards wouldnt be available anyways. Apparently there are beta testers to see if any bugs pop up with the new cards too.

having to uninstall and reinstall ptcgo is annoying. Why is this still an issue all these years? I swear this game has gotten worse ever since they changed the field layout couple years ago.

hidden moon or hidden steel. also you can use your tokens for pikachu theme packs in the shop.55 per pack and are tradable. 5 of them = 1 pack usually on public.

How? HOW?! This deck was garbage when I made it for the memes around the start of BP, yet now I'm running around like a mentally handicapped grim reaper. My long hiatus must have really messed with the matchmaking algorithm.

Mostly Lele and Zygarde decks. One had a Sylveon GX, but didn't even read what it could do since I KOed it the turn after he played it. I've been out of the game too long to know what is or isn't good outside of Legacy anymore.

Hidden moon.
>>
>>33178589
hidden moon. then hidden steel. Then toss up between basic blue(greninja/walrein), dark hammer, inceniroar, crushing current. Really weakness plays a key element for 1 hit KOs so it can be a bit rock-paper-scissors of a format so dont expect to auto-win when weakness cheese is around.However Hidden moon has 1 shot power in boss monsters but also plenty of draws cards. it has psychic attackers to cover their fighting weakness, and the psychic attacker lunala is weak to dark which is non-existent in theme format. The key card in theme is bewear, stage 1 and it swings for 120 for 3 energy on basic pokemon and it lets you draw 3 when you evolve into it. it has 130 hp which lets it become safe from most threats except lunala and solgaleo. So the meta in theme is punished for using big basics as the main attackers which lead to focusing on evolution sweepers becoming the most safest choice.

Then there is the energy syndrome of starting with 6-7energy. Not much you can do when that happens you just end up losing.
>>
Got a question for players on the higher echelon on understanding and playing the standard meta game and mechanics.

I have only played while VS seeker was in rotation and now that it is leaving I am afraid that the amount of inconsistency with decks will irk me to no end and cause me not to want to play. We have Leles and with playing up to 3-4 you still have a good bit of control just not the on demand choices of having the option of 3-6 Lysanders played in a game or other specific supporter that aid in any situation.

Basically what I am asking is what was the meta like consistency wise without VS seeker?

*undaunted, im retarded
>>
Well, there's your answer.
>>
>>33179135
Always the second option, 99% of the time you'll be opening trash you can't use instead of keeping the value and using it to trade for things you actually need from newer sets.

I can't make any deck without blowing money, what's the cheapest budget deck?

>>
>>33179016
You can check out the meta of 2014 for a good example of what it was like. Virizion Genesect that won worlds for example ran 1 colress, 4 N, 4 juniper a total of 9 draw cards. they ran 4 skyla to search g-booster mainly. they even teched in 2 shadow triad to recover g-booster/plasma energy. 15 supporters total and only 1 jirachi. mostly because jirach ex was such a sniping liability with 90 hp. you can expect people to run tapu lele at 2 as the standard since it is bulky but can actually make a respectable secondary attacker in a pinch but mainly because its that good for consistency.

You are correct that vs seeker allowed you tech in supporters like hex maniac, karen, fisher man, lysandre and even chain in succession to cripple the opponent if needed. If they did nothing in your opening hand you can discard freely and get them later in the game with vs seeker. So yes tech supporters will be hurt and you will have to run more of those supporters in case they get discarded or for key match ups as you can no longer play 1-ofs 5 times anymore.

yveltal garbodor was one of the most dominating decks during that time and only played the 8-10 draw supporters plus maybe 2-4 of skyla,lysandre or other stuff. believe me decks can run and they can be fast but sycamore is more punishing, ultra ball discarding supporters hurts and overall there were no crazy shaymin ex spam to dig out vs seeker for lysandre.

Expect to see rare candy decks max out on skyla. other decks to max out on tapu lele, N, Sycamores.
>>
>>33179135
Never risk opening packs. hold them and use them to pick up stuff you need or to flip to make more packs. Those kids that open packs and pull SR ultra ball most likely have been going negative for months/years and then get lucky 1 day but overall still in negative value. open your locked packs but tradeable packs are king in this game. even chests and pikachu avatar packs can help you uptrade into guardians rising packs.

>>33179238
it depends really, i see offers for 4-5 = 1 pack. ever since tokens in vs reward got nerfed they have more exchange power. The bots can no longer token gain since they cap out after 10 games. either way 5 or 10 pikachu packs for tradeable packs makes the grinding far less painful.

>>33179255
You will want to pick up tapu lele as soon as possible, it just keeps rising in value and will continue to do so as vs seeker rotates. passimian mew is a good budget deck. volcanion, metagross, trashlance garb with espeon/drampa arent too expensive. the most expensive thing is tapu lele each other gx can be gotten for 1-5 packs maximum. skip shaymin since its rotating of course. start with a deck list and go from there. dont open tradeable packs. use your tokens on tournaments or trade them for pikachu avatar packs then sell 4-5 of them for 1 pack. use chest or pikachu packs to pick up items/supporters and commons/uncommons. chest can get you rares. you can even resell rares for 1 pack but that takes longer but a good investment if you have patience. You can trade up 3-4 chests for packs as well. the free to play model is very generous in this game but newbies always splurge the best resource they have, tokens, on locked packs hoping to pull the cards they need.
>>
>>33177862
Time out, people actually will take the Pikachu boxes?

Why? I don't see any reason for them to have any value whatsoever.
>>
>>33179443
100% I have no concrete reason why. But if take a guess I think its because noobies who open their packs have a lot uncommons/commons/rares in bulk and if you offer a pikachu pack they take it because those same newbies dont know any better. maybe they think its a real currency?maybe they resell the pikachu costume sets? honestly I have no idea why it works, but they DO have value and I dont need to understand why as i stopped asking that years ago. All i need to know is that they can be used to build your collection if your offers arent too crazy. and other players will offer their own packs like guardians, sun & moon for those pikachu packs. it works and i cant really explain why they have any exact value.
>>
>>33179508
>it works and i cant really explain why they have any exact value.
It might just be a meme. A small group of people traded packs for them in the long before time, giving them value, and they remained valuable simply because they held value.
I ain't gonna question it, anything to turn coins into packs is welcome.

>>33179548
Buy pikachu packs, trade one for each trainer you need.
The cheapest newbie decks right now are Golduck and Quilava, and the cheapest meta deck is Volcanion.
Theme decks have staples but they're traps (except the Lunala one). You end up spending the equivalent of five pikachu packs to get one or two staples instead of just trading one or two pikachu packs for those same ones.
Lunala isn't a trap because it's the most consistent theme deck and therefore useful for grinding out coins and entering theme tourneys.
>>
>>33178226
A small change but important. It now hits for 2 counters at the end of each turn, and *then* the affected player flips to try lose the condition. Meaning you are now guaranteed the first 20 will work since the flip comes after.

>>33179268

I suspect decks will be:
>3-4 Sycamore
>2-4 N
>2 Lillie or Hala since we don't have Colress yet
>2 Guzma
>1 Brigette or Pokemon Fan Club
>2-4 Skyla, Mallow or Misty's Determination
>4 Ultra Ball and Lele as a 2 count.

Sycamore is still the main draw supporter. It's too powerful to not run. Decks that take lots of prizes early tended to lower the count of N since it hurts them more. Lillie for decks with no early GX attack and Hala for ones with.

Guzma will see play as well. Lysandre was played pre VS Seeker. Bridgette should also still see play as it's a good one use card on your first turn with out burning too many cards.

Skyla I'm not so sure about. Stage 2 decks will likely run her in high counts but I think Misty's or Mallow could be better for decks looking for a combo piece since they're any card, just with a catch.

There is also no item draw in format which is odd. Faster Decks might pick up the old random engine (4 Random Reviver, 4 Sycamore) to burn through their deck.

Cards like Oranguru and Octilery should find them selves into most decks as well making Ultra Ball still the defining card in deck building. GX attacks like Drampa and Metagross also get better since it's less likely your opponent can pull an N. In general Drampa becomes a great starter in decks even just to activate Hala. I don't think that's consistent enough to be an engine but is worth noting.
>>
>>33179625
Yeah, this one. It fucking stomps on versus, thought the ones I usually play against run Mallow.
>>
>>33179533
A true meme. A trend that began with some old school traders years ago and it never died.

>>33179548
Which ones exactly? Things like sycamore, N, skyla can be picked up 4 of each altogether for 1 guardians pack. Thats the fastest way. Next you can use chests but that takes maybe 1-2 days but it does work. you can ask for like 1 of each item/supporter but 20 overall. then repeat as necessary. pikachu avatar packs have less buying power but can get most trainers. honestly experiment how you can stretch out their value thats how you get good in trading mate.

Some examples; I offer my 1 chest for 4 sycamore, 4 N, 4 skyla from a recent set (not the older sets those wont go through as often). put it for 8 hours since the 1 hour left mark is when everyone picks up their trades especially newbies.
OR
My 1 pikachu pack (55 coins) for 1 sycamore, N, skyla, mallow, choice band, blower, brooklet hill. spread it thin dont get too greedy. Fastest offer 1 pikachu will get you basically any standard trainer maybe even foil versions at 1:1 exchange. offer 1 pika pack : 5 different trainers or go for more or 1 : 4 of complete set of a card/ get creative but not greedy.

>>33179631
excellent insight on the oranguru/octillery. heck people back then ran electrode for the draw 4 so draw 5 is could be popular.
>>
>>33179667
I'm missing 4 bursting balloons, how much for 4 of them? 2 for 1 guardian pack seems unfair.
>>
>>33179733
Trades on the GTS are all unfair unless they've been up for less than a half hour.
Offer a pack for a set, someone will trade.
>>
>>33179733
Dont use guardians or other packs mate. Use your chest or 1 pikachu pack (55 tokens) for 2. if it fails go for 1 : 1. 1 chest can get 4 easily. You must make your own offers. Everyone snatches the good offers plus there is way too much bot spam to sift through.

>unless they've been up for less than a half hour.
Or less that 4 hours if you're on at 1-4 in the morning. Really, the few times I've done extremely late night trades it's shocking how long REALLY good deals can just sit there. 4 packs for a Jolteon EX back when it was new and could go for 10 RS or more.
>>
>>33179853
no problem. pass on the knowledge to whoever needs help is all I ask. this is where a lot of resellers that make packs start from. starting with staples that people give away for basically free then selling them for 1 crappy pack like evolutions then trade 2-3 evolutions into 1 guardian rising and go from there.

LackeyCCG is a universal tabletop board game and card game software that's been around probably longer than you've been alive. It has, at this moment every card ever in print up to the newest Sun and Moon set. In fact, it gets high resolution card scans automatically thanks to the wonderful fellow working at http://pkmncards.com/

Educate yourself before brushing Lackey off. It's extremely reliable and hasn't had a bug in it for years.

>>33181521
There are no exact values for every single second a card rises/lowers but there are some averages. http://www.ou7c4st.com/card-values.html is not completely up to date but it gives a good sense of what to expect. Check public see what people offer for the card itself and from there make comparable offers to what they give because that is your competition.

Okay, I still don't have one Lele and I need to get one before the rotation.

I do have a single SR Rare Candy from PB, so should I part with it for Lele? It would be hard to part with, but I only have 1 so the odds of me ever getting a set to use in a deck are extremely low.
>>
>>33183836
thanks! what's your winrate with that deck?
>>
>>33183699
Gotta run a Gard deck now
>>
>>33183724
The best part of playing online is being able to do something else while the player starts setting up his wankfest since the enforced rules won't make him do anything fishy.
Otherwise I'd rather play irl instead of seeing an avart slowly moving his cards and do whatever he needs to do.
>>
>>33183910
Function over style. Trade that SR up for the packs/resources you need for Lele.
>>
>>33183956
Not good at all.
Let's leave it at that.
>>
>>33184410
Lackey logs every single movement made in a timestamped chatlog, so if anything fishy does occur just cite the log. Seriously, who are you playing with anyway? 8 year olds? Just don't play with cheaters.
>>
>>33184650
i'll try it, i'll show my changes if the deck works
>>
>>33183724
I said nothing about rules being necessary, I was only pointing out that being bug free for lack of features is not an accomplishment.

And there is a huge difference between being a game and a simulator. PTCGO is also a game by itself, the ladder, the trades, the missions, etc. are all part of the experience. IRL you also have limitations that make the game interesting in another way, and actually owning a card you like has its value for some people.

It's understandable that there are those who will find it fun to play with any card in a simulator, but it's not objectively better than the other options.
>>
>>33184793
I understand. You're mistaken in believing Lackey doesn't have any features. It has a long list of them, some exclusive to the Pokemon pllugin.

I see the game aspect of PTCGO. Nothing is stopping someone from playing both PTCGO and Lackey, one as a game and one for either casual play or testing decks. Lackey does also have a booster pack feature and a card pool, though. So you can still "collect" with Lackey.

Anyway, I just figured most people here would be equipped with both.

>>33185426
What would be the Golduck deck? What would I run with the Golduck? Fairly new to tcg. I read over some of how the theme decks were bad so i figured might as well try building a budget deck
>>
>>33182122
Hey thanks. Did some research apparently the ancient power box did not have a ptcgo code, and was only released as a shop gem bundle. This lead it to being highly rare and coveted. Are there any other galaxy foils that did not have codes?

>>33182575
Search adwcleaner from malwarebytes to get rid of all that adware.

>>33183694
If you check public people are offering 1 Guardians Rising for Octillery all day. So chances are pikachu or even chests will fail. but of course it could take a week but maybe it will go through.

>>33183910
You need Lele which keeps going up in value, while rare candy commons are dirt cheap. it isnt even a question mate.

>>33185538
I feel like sudowoodo will be in most peoples list just because they fear and respect MRays power/speed and that by itself is enough to win vs Mray.

just noticed that guy from milano open ran 1 espeon gx in his list. for what purpose??
>>
So I'm playing via an apk on my phone. I haven't been able to log in at all today, it keeps saying the server is down for maintenance. But I'm fairly certain there's no maintenance going on.
Anyone else familiar with this problem or could point me in the right direction?
>>
>>33187361
Likely have to uninstall/reinstall. Everytime an update happens it messes up the game files.
>>
>>33187307
That is not Espeon GX, it was Espeon EX. Miraculous Shine for 1 colorless energy :Devolve each of your opponent's evolved Pokémon and put the highest Stage Evolution card on it into your opponent's hand.

Say you are playing vs metagross GX/decidueye gx. You only need to hit 80 damage on their mons, then devolve with espeon to get a KO. Going for 250/240 hp can be extremely tedious so reducing that by 2/3 can obliterate your opponents chances of KO your own board.
>>
Tapu Lele support when? The deck only has one reliable card right now.

>>33187452
Probably never.

Throw whatever "valuable" card you have up for it or a crap pack.

It's a niche tech card at best, sure someone will be happy to part with it.

Guys, I'm trying to make an expanded version of the old Raindance deck.

It doesn't really have to be competitive, I just wanted to make it historicaly accurate, it's going to be a gift to a friend of mine.

I only know about Deluge Blastoise. Can you senpaitachi give me some ideas, please?
>>
>>33188520
Look up Archie's Ace In The Sleeve and Keldeo.
> I just wanted to make it historicaly accurate
Never mind, forget it.

So when is burning shadows live? friday or on the 3rd? also how do i find that countdown timer?
>>
>>33184889
>We asked the world's """top players"""
>Here are some other people's answers
wat?
>>
>>33188552
I think most of the 13 players named multiple decks.
>>
>>33188558
Sounds more like they asked the readers what they think and posted their random opinions.

The "top players" part is not connected with the rest of the text. Read it carefully. The wording is really ambiguous, as if it's trying to seem more important than it actually is.

Also
>Greninja BREAK

Does anyone seriously believe that?
>>
Any Expanded deck help? This is what I got

3 Darkrai EX BKT
1 Darkrai EX DXP
3 Darkrai GX
3 Yveltal
1 Tapu Lele GX
1 Gallade
1 Exeggcute

3 Juniper
2 N
2 Guzma
1 Acerola
1 Colress
1 Maxie's Hidden Ball Trick
1 Hex Maniac

4 VS Seeker
4 Ultra BAll
2 Trainers' Mail
1 Field Blower
3 Fighting Fury Belt
1 Computer Search
3 Battle Compressor
2 Sky Field
4 Dark Patch

12 Darkness

Should I just cut the Maxie Line entirely to add more consistency?
>>
>>33188520
basic list was like

4 blastoise
4 squirtle
4 pokemon breeder
4 oak
4 bill
4 computer search
4 item finder
3-4 gust of wind
3-4 pluspower
2-4 super energy removal
3 goop gas attack (for newer variants, the 'classic' variant didn't have it)
15-20 water energy

then the rest are tech cards, super potion/defender, sometimes, lass, ect.
>>
>>33188857
Didn't it have any other lines besides Blastoise? I could swear there was also a Gyarados.
>>
>>33188918
you can cut down on some things to add like, a 2-2 gyarados.
>>
>>33188857
Thanks anon. Does plus power have an expanded reprint? Otherwise, I think I can go with muscle band.

Super energy removal doesn't really have a replacement, right? I'll just use crushing hammer instead.

But what about item finder and computer search? I can't include both Dowsing Machine and Computer Search, which would be the easiest to replace with something else?
>>
>>33188991
there is a black and white base set print of plus power
>>
>>33188991

>Are the devs/team really Japanese?

>>33189776
I would say extremely incompetent management at the executive level, and their developers get treated like shit, underpaid and very likely in 3rd world countries. Bunch of old farts out of touch with TCGs and only care about attracting younger players and not a strong community. Rather than work on bugs they add fancy animations that end up making more bugs.

Then again sounds like the mobage model the Japanese are known for.

im sure they'll be worth plenty at launch just cuz its new and people will want them maybe after a week prices will settle, but big talk o the town/meme wombo combo breaker will be gard so im sure people will be eager to see how it actually plays out

>>33192440
Inflation always favors the newest set. Evolutions outweighed other packs when it first dropped, but Guardians will win out.

Still halfway between playing/not playing this game. I had gotten the Ray v Keldeo vs deck a while back and thought it was pretty good. I saw recently that there's a B Kyurem v W Kyurem vs deck out now that some anons were speculating on previously. Any consensus on whether it's worthwhile value-wise, and or if it has good staples I would be interested in, not really having much of a collection atm?

The last time I played this game before 2 months ago was Pokemon TCG for Gameboy and I'm already building competitive standard decks. Just play, the worst that'll happen is you'll lose games, but you don't really lose anything when you do. Pay attention to the threads, maybe watch some "beginner tips" stuff, you'll get the hang of it in no time.
Admittedly I also have 10+ years of MTG under my belt, but the games are somewhat different in how they're played.

but how do I deal with decks (in Standard) that will throw a bunch of Ex/Gx at my shitty basics? I know all have to start somewhere, but that doesn't sound like fun at all.

I'm not opposed to dropping a reasonable amount of money into codes, though, if that's what I need to level the playing field.
>>
>>33194762
you either spend some moneys in codes and trade for the cards of a competitive deck, or you are patient and use the GTS to flip packs until you can make a competitive deck

also you can do what >>33194665 said and play theme in the meantime, where everyone has to play pre-built decks, the variety isnt big but at least you all have the same tools
>>
>>33194762
Strategy. That along with the fact there's a shitload of cards with ex and gx hate. If you seriously are just getting dumped on exclusively by those types just buy the Alolan Ninetales theme deck.
>>
>>33194762
Dont drop money. Look for budget decks. shit like typholosion, greninja, passimian mew, hell garbodor trashalanche can hang with ex/gx. overall you are making this far more complicated than it is. Dont use theme decks in standard. You will get absolutely freaking murdered and want to give up on life. start with a coherent deck strategy, then build from there. lele/shaymin will have to come last but set a goal then work towards it. never ever open tradeable packs, use them for deck stuff.

is this guide still relevant for deckbuilding basics?

http://darkintegralgaming.com/deck-building/
>>
>>33194918
Yeah basic stuff there. http://www.pokegoldfish.com/metagame/standard/full#paper has meta decks so you see what everyone is playing
>>
>>33194918
No, that guide is retarded, it's recommending lots of niche cards like brock's grit, flare grunt, town map or Olympia which only go into specific decks that have those exact needs.
It's also recommending plain shitty cards like poison barb, carbink or center lady (while max potion and energy ramp exists).
Also it's recommending lots of items (max elixir, exp share, switch) which used to be good, but now is bad due to garb.

>>33194929
This is a little better but it's a little outdated, decks like mega mewtwo are dead now.

If you really wanna know the latests meta decks just search for the latest tournaments and search for player name + deck lists most of the prominent one have been uploaded somewhere.
But you are making this way too complicated, just play with your shitty deck and see what you fight against, at the rating you are starting you will literally be fighting against kids so you have quite a while until you need a meta deck.

Sell Gard buy HoOhs
Gard will fall
HoOh will rise
>>
Watching people try out Garde, looks like we're back in the MM2 meta, but with even fewer counters.

>>33195164
I collect more than I play too, and the few times I've bought foreign-language packs to save on money it never feels the same. My mentality is that I might as well just be buying fake cards at that point, but that might just be my autisms.

>>33195168
I'd be interested to try a Ho-oh deck in Expanded streaming Pokemon Rangers with Vs Seeker.
>>
>>33195203
I kind of prefer the japanese ones, they feel more legit, i used to get sent loads of neo packs from my aunt in japan when i was a kid though so maybe its that, im still devastated my cousin took my holo japanese OG Lugia and i dont have the heart to just buy one, id rather earn it
>>
>>33195164
I only collect and have some cards in various languages. I don't care at all, as long as they are official. Beyond that, jap cards are extremely well made.

The only thing that bothers me is having more than one language for a set of cards, for example, let's say those new shining legends, I'd never buy some in English and some in japanese. Choose one and finish the set you want,before choosing another.

I dunno, GRI was pretty bad too sometimes. Friend of mine got like 3 GX pulls and a full art Plumeria out of 16 packs of BUS though. Just bad luck maybe?
>>
>>33196111
well that's not a GRI pack on closer inspection, but my point remains. There's just better stuff in GRI, so of course BUS feels less impressive.
>>
>>33196111
Nah I dont open packs mate. I meant on the market BUS has crappy buying power and its the first day.

September. You should know tapu lele GX is a staple and is overpriced and will only go up in value from here. its a simple game where nothing truly beats any other deck. its more like rock-paper-scissors
>>
>>33196366
Isn't that garde trade really bad? Even without the fact that right now BUS are worth 2~3GRI, paying 13 GRI for a single GX from a normal pack which only fits into one deck seems really expensive.
>>
>>33196550
Gardevoir-GX was then traded along with Ho-Oh-GX for FA Guzma, and considering that BUS will probably be worth less than GRI, that makes the trade a bit better IMO

I'm new into the game and i want to buy separated cards, what are the most important cards that i have to buy from Burning Shadows?
>>
>>33197163
every deck will want to run 2 Guzma, Gardevoir-GX is the best GX in the game atm. Most people will want to have a Kiawe and some Acerolas around, super scoop ups are a classic but I still use my neo era ones.
>>
>>33196689
niños rata gonna rat
>>
>>33197163
Guzma and Super Scoop Up are the only absolute must-haves, I'd say. Acerola and Kiawe are pretty strong too, but more situational. Gardevoir GX is the strongest and most sought-after from the Pokemon selection, but only if you're wanting to build a deck out of it. Golisopod is probably second after Gardevoir, and maybe has more potential variety in deck building. Marshadow GX has an even wider potential, being able to be teched into almost any deck, but time will tell how useful that turns out to be. Ho-oh GX, Necrozma GXand Darkrai GX are all potentially pretty good, but more as supporters in other existing decks. Ninetales should fit nicely into any deck already running Alolan Vulpix, and probably a few others might want to make space for the both of them for a nice wall. Overall, Guardians Rising had stronger staples in Tapu Lele GX and Choice Band, but still a good solid selection in Burning Shadows.
>>

Thanks
I was thinking in a Golisopod/Zoroark deck, i have the Leles and every staple i believe, so I have to buy Acerola, Guzma and Super Scoop Up, no?
>>
>>33195203
>I'd be interested to try a Ho-oh deck in Expanded streaming Pokemon Rangers with Vs Seeker.
Volc decks are gonna look like Kiawe on Ho-Oh -> Phoenix Burn -> Guzma/switch/float stone, in either format.
>>
>>33197234
Literally what?

What do you think about a Dusknoir/Zoroark rogue deck?

Outcast says 8 packs, so around there unless there's been a large meta toward or away from water int he past couple weeks.
Alternatively, use the filter to search for that specific card.
>>
I'm used to seeing trash offers in public trade, but 16+ packs for Gardevoir GX? Seriously?
>>
>>33198725
Is it worth more or less?
>>
>>33198737
Can't really tell for sure until prices stabilize. Though, every GX I'm seeing people want to get rid of for quite a few packs.

I'm trying to get them for 8 a piece, but who knows if I'll get them or not.

Tapu Lele GX is the new Shaymin EX.

Is this trade worth it? I know Gardevoir is good but so is Golisopod
>>
>>33199298
Not counting bling cards, right now it's Gardevoir because of the immediate post-release hype. It'll very likely drop in price. The one expected to be THE high-price card like Shaymin is Tapu Lele GX.

>>33199363
Not right now. I see untouched offers for a RR Golisopod for less than the price of a RA Garde.
>>
>>33199371
Thanks for the reply. Guess I'll wait more for Golisopod. I luckily pulled 2 and need a third to make a deck, so kinda in a hurry for one more
>>
>>33199371
>>33199363
Thanks lads
>>
>>33199386
If you don't care much for the Gardevoir right now, you could just put it up for trade for pure packs and then get a Golisopod with some of the packs.
>>
>>33199408
How many Guardians pack is it worth right now?
>>
sup weebs and manchildren, i just got off work. Whats the status on the new set, how much are gards trading for whats worth anything rn
>>
>>33199426
Maybe 13-14 Burning Shadows, little less than double that for Guardians Rising. Price is gonna be dropping though as the hype begins to wear off.

>>33199436
Lowest public offer I've seen a Gardevoir posted for is 13 packs. Give it a few more days of people undercutting each other for the price to settle.

You can probably find online stores selling for below that. I've seen UK sellers on eBay selling at £11.95/€13.22 for four packs.

So what are the odds Garde takes Worlds?

>>33200174
Of those, I'd say Gallade. Diance and Cutiefly you likely have to burn an energy retreating into. Alolan Vulpix at least has a free attack so that doesn't matter as much. Gallade's useful for type matchup and hitting the numbers on low energy attackers.
