STRAIGHT GENGAR: Spread, spread, and spread.

STRAIGHT GENGAR: Spread, spread, and spread.

Hey guys – this is my first article on sixprizes.com, but I’ve been lurking for around 2 or 3 months now. There is one prominent card in my area – Gengar. I’ve seen all types of Gengar decks… Mother Gengar (Nidoqueen RR/Gengar SF), Metal Gengar (Metagross SV/Gengar SF), and GeChamp (Gengar SF/Machamp SF). Personally, I think the most destructive out of those decks is GeChamp; but I haven’t been able to construct a good deck list, so I went on to create – STRAIGHT [...]

Gengar SF / Metagross SV - Deck Analysis

Gengar SF / Metagross SV – Deck Analysis

Gengar is either loved or hated. The cards existence alone modifies the way decks are built, and when facing a deck containing this Pokemon card, you modify your strategy in order to avoid the deadly (pun intended) “Fainting Spell”.

This is a deck I’ve been working on for a few weeks, ever since I came across the idea of combining Metagross SV and Gengar SF. “Gravitation” [...]

Battle Roads Autumn 2009 – First Weekend Recap – Pablo

Battle Roads Autumn 2009 – First Weekend Recap – Pablo

Hello guys! I was only able to make it to one Battle Road on the first week, mainly due to conflicting schedules with my soccer games but oh well; at least I got some games in. I decided to use Flygon Lock for this tournament, mainly because I had used it a lot before Worlds, but I hadn’t used it at a real tournament before. I knew time would be an issue eventually, so I tried playing as fast as I could, but I [...]

Battle Roads Autumn 2009 First Weekend Recap – Adam

First off, I hope everyone enjoyed following along with the Twitter updates the past 2 days! It was pretty cool to be able to send updates in after every round. I apologize if my updates weren’t as detailed as doeiqts, my phone is extremely basic and takes me forever to type anything out; I am guessing he has a keyboard on his phone. If you want to send in Twitter updates, just let me know and I’ll get you hooked up.

Anyways I guess [...]

Gengar Stormfront SF Revisited

Gengar Stormfront SF Revisited

I got finally got a chance to play Pokemon cards over the weekend with Ian and quaziko. I was set on testing Gengar variants until I could get something to work decently. I have tried a bunch of different things out, ranging from Honchrow G PL and Toxicroak G Promo to a beefed up Nidoqueen RR line and Crobat G PL with TGI Poke Turn and even Mewtwo LV.X LA, but I finally got a Machamp list to [...]

Thoughts on Gengar

Thoughts on Gengar

I have been trying some different variants of Gengar my last few testing sessions and haven’t had much success with it. I was able to beat Flygon/Machamp a few games just by out-speeding it, but have struggled mightily against Luxray GL/Blaziken FB. Here are a couple lists I have been tinkering with:

Pokemon-23 4 Gastly SF 2 Haunter SF 4 Gengar SF 2 Baltoy GE 2 Claydol GE 2 Unown G GE 2 Crobat G PL 2 Relicanth SV 1 Chatot [...]

Mewtwo LV.X Legends Awakened LA 144 – Card of the Day

Mewtwo LV.X Legends Awakened LA 144 – Card of the Day

Ever since Regigigas LV.X became popular during Cities last year, people have toyed around with the idea of using Mewtwo LV.X in their decks. It seems like such a simple way to possibly gain an auto-win against an otherwise difficult matchup. “Psybarrier” flat out stops all basic Pokemon cards (well, nearly all of them) and forces your opponent to be wary of being caught without any way to defend against it.

[...]

Gengar Stormfront SF 18 – Card of the Day

Gengar Stormfront SF 18 – Card of the Day

Gengar had a lot of hype up until the release of the Stormfront Pokemon TCG set. Taken at face value Gengar looks like the most amazing Pokemon card ever. Gengar can KO a Pokemon with the flip of a coin after getting KO’d himself using the Pokemon Power “Fainting Spell”. Shadow Room can do a very efficient 60 damage for 1 energy. Poltergeist can do a whole lot of damage if the opponent [...]
