by Adam on November 6, 2009 at 4 PM View Comments 162 views  I think that it may become necessary to tech stalling Pokemon into decks for the upcoming City Championships. There are many quick decks out there, so the need to be able to buy yourself an extra turn or two to set up can be invaluable.
The two best cards to be able to do this, in my opinion, are Mr. Mime MT and Shuckle SW. Mr. Mime requires that your opponent have at least 3 Energy cards attached in order to damage it. …

by Pablo on October 24, 2009 at 11 PM View Comments 47 views  Hello guys! I’ve been busy this past couple of weeks and hence why the usual volume of content has been low. I definately want to make up for that, and I am eager to get cranking on typing out all the crazy ideas I have involving the next set, and hence why I want to request to our fellow readers who got some of the new cards from the prereleases to scan some for me so my articles can look more professional ;).
Here’s a …

by Dave Hueglin on October 6, 2009 at 8 AM View Comments 119 views  Many players avoid any cards that rely on flips like the plague. Yet some cards buck this trend out of sheer usefulness. The best example of this is SSU, aka Super Scoop Up. The key to using SSU is to run four of them in the hope that at least two will end up heads. Risky yes (Fabien Garnier got 3 tails on 3 SSUs to lose in a key game against Stephen Silvestro at the 2009 Worlds), but also full of potential.

by Mad Jew on October 1, 2009 at 8 AM View Comments 494 views  Some of you may say “Not again” – but still, there may have been so many different ways to combine Flygon with in this format. Many of you may be aware that Flygon worked so well with the following techs (or secondary attackers) such as Machamp (SF), Nidoqueen (RR), Mewtwo Lv.X (LA), Palkia Lv.X (GE), Ariados (MT), Weavile (SW) and Dusknoir (DP) – as proven by numerous tournament wins and top cut finishings (including a 2nd and 3rd place finish at the 2009 World Championships).

by Adam on September 30, 2009 at 8 AM View Comments 277 views  This is in my opinion one of the gnarliest Pokemon cards that came out in Supreme Victors. It’s attack and Pokemon Power are both just killer. “Dragon Rush” can take out Claydols and will snag you a prize nearly every time you use the attack. “Healing Breath” heals all your SP Pokemon in play, which again is awesome.
The best combo utilizing Garchomp C LV.X involves Luxray GL LV.X and Bronzong G PL. First, you want to make sure you have a …

by Adam on September 29, 2009 at 8 AM View Comments 237 views  I have seen this Pokemon card being used a notable amount at Battle Roads, even though I never really considered it to be a legitimate option when it was released. However, after seeing it being used a few different ways, I think that Garchomp may be a playable card.
The main draw to this Pokemon is “Speed Impact”. 120 damage for 3 Energy is pretty gnarly, even though though this damage can be limited. Its “Dragon Intimidation” Pokemon Body aids the attack, but …

by Adam on September 28, 2009 at 8 AM View Comments 373 views  Porygon-Z is one of the more interesting Pokemon cards out at the moment, and I had the pleasure of playing against a super solid deck based around it last week at Battle Roads.
The strategy is extremely straightforward: get Technical Machines in play and attack with Overload for a lot of damage (up to 200 with 8 TMs attached). This strategy is heavily aided by Porygon-Z LV.X, who lets you search your deck for any two cards and put them on top via its “Decode” …

by J-Wittz on September 27, 2009 at 8 AM View Comments 596 views  Hello, and welcome fellow nerds players! My name’s J-Wittz, you might know me by my unbelievably long posts and commentary on articles from time to time. Well guess what? Now my long posts are up here at the front of the page with pictures too, so you almost HAVE to read them! I’ve decided that while I COULD write my Battle Roads tourney report in the fullest of detail with my most exquisite memory, it was actually the worst tournament of my career and my first …
