As we prepare our decks for Fall Battle Roads, don’t forget to prepare for the types of opponents you will encounter. Yes, these opponents are usually in one shape or form at every tournament, so you’d best put this article in your back pocket and pull it out when you need it most. So, without further adieu, let’s check out these Poke-profiles: [...] Continue reading Pokemon Opponents: Psychoanalysis and Strategies  With Worlds over, the new format kicking in, and Undaunted being, how does all this affect the game in its current state? We all know that decks like Luxchomp, Sablelock, Jumpluff, and a few others dominated the format, but the release of Undaunted and the rotation poses a threat for quite a few of those decks. How this affects non SP decks: With the loss of Claydol, Roseanne’s Research, and Unown G, just about all non SP decks [...] Continue reading Change is right around the corner.  As is common knowledge by now, the current format will consist of Majestic Dawn and on. The same decks that have been winning before are going to stay around, which is OK if you ignore the one, simple problem. Their names are awful. There’s no way to get around it. “Luxchomp, Sablelock, Blastgatr”? They are not appealing to the common player, even if they do get to the point. There are ways to properly name a deck, however. Method 1: Your Pokemon.  With Undaunted pre-releases coming to a close this week, I thought I’d take a look at what I think are some of the best cards in the set, as I did for Unleashed. Please keep in mind that all of these thoughts are based on an MD-on format, as that’s the only format these cards are going to be legal in. Top 5 Pokemon of HGSS: Undaunted I know a lot of people hate the Legend [...] Continue reading The Best Of: HGSS Undaunted Featured Article
 Hello everyone, this is my 3rd article I’ve written for 6P (I wrote the other two under the “Rhin” nickname) and the first one not to be about deck analysis. This time, im going to focus the analysis on tips to get the perfect timing to play galactic trainer cards for SP decks. I believe the main advantage SP decks have other the rest (and what makes them rule the metagame right now) is the speed they have, and that speed mainly obtained thanks [...] Continue reading The Right Timing  Going along with my previous article “Tools of the Trade“, I thought I would write a brief article about the very next question I get asked: “OH GOD STATES IS TOMORROW WHATDOIDOWHATDOIDO?” Maybe I just think too much, but I’m often bewildered by players, especially high level players, who aren’t fully prepared for tournaments the night before, or even the day of. Luckily for them, I’m here to provide a handful of tips that will guarantee* tournament success. * – No guarantee. Decide [...] Continue reading How To Prepare for a tournament, OR: How I learned to stop worrying and love the soap.  Hi members of the Pokemon community! I would like to talk about some cards that may be able to replace Claydol in your decks. Ninetales HS Ninetales can be used for good draw power because of his “Roast Reveal” Poke Power. “Roast Reveal” lets you discard one fire energy from your hand and the draw 3 cards. This is okay but is power sprayable. Ninetales pairs well with Typhlosion Prime because Typhlosion lets you attach a fire energy from you [...] Continue reading Alternatives To Claydol Featured Article
 This article is intended to show how Vileplume UD combined with Spiritomb AR can be an incredibly powerful trainer lock strategy. Both Vileplume and Spiritomb have the ability to block you from playing Trainer cards. Vileplume’s strength comes from its Poke-Body “Allergy Flower” which, while in play, does not allow either player to play Trainer. Spiritomb’s Poke-Body “Keystone Seal” has the same effect, but only when Spiritomb is in the active position. The basic strategy is to [...] Continue reading VileTomb: The Trainer Lock Combo  Claydol, Claydol, with Cosmic Power, Is it now thy final hour? Other techs were sure to cower, Can I please buy you a fancy flower? Oh how dearly we would pay, Sometimes $30 in your day. You were a star on eBay, 2-3 we used to play. Your attack, of course, was really lame, But with other props, why should we blame? Many crappy hands you overcame, Will the game e’er be the same? [...] Continue reading Farewell, Oh Claydol  As a league leader, I help a lot of people, mostly young ones, but some older as well, get into the game, learn to play, etc. Typically the first few weeks at league are spent learning to play the game, and then building decks, learning what a metagame is, etc. After that process is sorted, though, the first question I typically get is: “What am I going to need to play Pokemon, besides cards?” Because I’ve been asked that so many times, and because [...] Continue reading Tools of the Trade |
