 Welcome ladies and gentlemen to my newest article I’ve decided to post on SixPrizes.com.
It’s about a pretty new deck that should be seen at some Cities. As you may have realized because of the title, it’s the Gliscor-Spiritomb Lock. The main strategy of this deck is to paralyze your opponent’s active Pokémon with Gliscor Lv.X’s Poké-Power “Shoot Poison” and return it to your hand with the regular Gliscor’s “Burning Poison” attack to do it again and again. You may [...]

 When Rising Rivals came out back in May 2009, most of us just flocked to the cards like Nidoqueen, and Luxray GL LV. X, that were obviously viable and changed the way several decks were run (Gengar and Beedrill, to name a couple), and Flygon was established as the only non-SP deck to have been formed on a card out of Rising Rivals. But I seem to remember that there was another card that received almost as much hype as [...]

 Ian came down to hang out last weekend and we played a handful of games of Pokemon cards. First we tried out turn 2 Shuppet because Ian seemed to think it might be good (he was actually ecstatic about it haha). We tested it against a couple SP variants. Shuppet was fast and got set up quickly, which enabled it to get ahead, but as soon as the Mewtwo LV.X or Dialga G LV.X came out, there was almost nothing [...]

 Another set has rolled around, and this one has only one word in it’s name: Arceus. There were a fair few amount of cards in this set to be hyped, but one of the cards to receive the most generous amount of love was Salamence LV.X. And it’s easy to see why, isn’t it? Taking double prizes is always an incredible feat, especially when you’re already sporting a high damage output from the start to begin with.
But is it [...]

 A guy I know at league has been playing a Darkrai Lv.X deck that I keep losing to. Unwilling to totally scrap the deck that I have been playing, I went looking for a tech. And that’s when I came upon Mankey SV. For 1 Fighting Energy he can hit Level Xs for 60 damage. But it gets better. Darkrai Lv.X has a x2 weakness to Fighting, effectively giving Mankey a OHKO [...]

 Raichu LV.X has been horribly underestimated in my opinion when it was first released in the Stormfront set. When it came out most people were making Gengar and Machamp decks. But this card should be recognized for having one of the most outstanding Poke-Powers of all time!
Raichu LV.X’s Power is called “Link Lightning” which allows you to use two attacks in one turn after Leveling Up Raichu and using Raichu LV.X’s attack [...]

 Please picture the following: Flygon Lv.X, Machamp, Nidoqueen, Mesprit. Thanks!
Well to start things off this is my first premiere event since Spring Battle Roads, so needless to say I was quite excited. I had been play testing quite a few decks, but really felt like Fly/Champ was the best play. So I went with my gut and that is what I ended up playing.
So my friends, brother, and I [...]

 Ok, well this is my report from very interesting Battle Roads.
I was stuck between either playing Flychamp or a Flylock variant but in the end I played Flychamp, it was a little inconsistent, but I was pleased with how it turned out.
I would like to tell you what placed before I get deeper into the report.
Masters: 1st Place- Flygon Lock (Palkia) 2nd Place- Dialga G/Garchomp C 3rd Place- Blaziken [...]

 My latest deck is a neo-Gardevoir variant that uses Mesprit, Gardevoir PL, and Upper Energy instead of using Weavile with Dark/Special Dark Energy that’s so popular right now. Since Gardevoir PL lets one move around their Psychic Energy, it is a very fluid deck, letting one use near anything on the field as an attacker. Believe it or not, I’ve taken prizes with Mesprit. [...]
