I honestly wouldn't mind if that happened to me. I need that special shop bling

I swear the RNG gets worse during events.

did a wonder pick of 3*. and won the exeggutor full art.

8 cards left in the set.

Man these new metas are killing me. I used to win a good amount before, but now I just can't get anything going. All my previous strats, wasted!

Serperior / Celebi EX combo is devestating

I've had great success with Scolipede, but when it bricks it BRICKS. M2 is better than ever, and with Gary I easily glided my way through the last 20 wins of the event and continue to crush in random. It owns Celebi. I'm 1 Golem away from trying out that deck, I'll have it tomorrow one way or another, I'm 20 pack points shy.

Maybe modify the current Gyarados/Chatot deck filled with fossils but use Alakazam instead of Gyarados? Thin out and pull what you need with Chatot and the fossils while getting Alakazam online. Then their grass energy loaded Pokemon get wrecked by Psychic?

Finally got the last Nidoking I needed. Now if only there were ways to ramp up Energy.

OMG finally. 61 packs and I couldn't get that stupid Pidgeot Ex.

Lol the amount of celebi and gyarados players that concede within 2 rounds when hitmonlee begins chipping away at their pokemon is too funny

I have been playing a lot of Gyrados, and most people play it really poorly. If you see hitmonlee/zebstroika/etc, you need to hold onto your magikarp and misty until you can put pressure on it somehow. You lose the energy battle just a little bit, but fuck it, build up the greninja you're likely throwing down.

The number of games I've personally won because somebody attacks druddigon when they don't have to is staggering, as well. You can make the deck pay for having a tank you don't put energy on so easily

I'm not sure I will be able to keep the generals going would anyone else like to take over the topics?

Only 2* rarity and below show up on wonder pick, nice pull though!

If you guys want to run a hilarious cheese deck that will prolly piss off your opponent, I highly recommend the Gyarados + 5 fossil deck.
2x MK Magikarp
2x Gyarados ex
2x Chatot
Any 5 fossils
2x Misty
2x Professor's Research
2x Sabrina
2x Pokeball
1x X-Speed

Deck is built to get out Gyarados out as fast possible. Fossils are there to protect from Sabrina or you can continually discard them to thin out your deck. You want to build up your Magikarp/Gyarados while Chatot shuffles your deck.

i got the special full art celebi off the 2nd pack tonight.

someone got the chance to wonder pick (hopefully they got it).

also to note: i plan to go for the rare pick for the zapdos while i have those wonder hourglass saved up (at worse i'll have a 2 in 5 shot of landing something).

Finally got a fucking moltres ex

adrian... i did it.

just pulled the zapdos ex from the rare pick (won't need to try anymore).
there's only that raichu i can get off the mythical island packs.

Made some changes to this deck. Got rid of one Professor's Research to add a Giovanni for the mewtwo decks. Figured with Chatot shuffling your deck when it's active, the extra Professor's Research is more of a waste.

Ayy, free pack from the login rewards coming in clutch

My pack luck continues to be garbage while I remain undefeated at Wonder Pick. Got a 4-energy Wigglytuff Ex the other day, and Celebi Ex just now.

I wonder picked a 2nd Aerodactyl ex today, been having a blast with it! I'm going to say this deck is A tier, but I have beaten 2 M2 decks with it so far...it might be S tier with M2 and Gary.

Does anyone know if Apex Raichu appears in the wonderpick event? It's the only elec I'm missing.

No

Some Celebi managed to get 10 energy and got 7 head flips on me lol

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/9/9142ed66.jpg

I still managed to win cuz of Mew's Genome Hacking but it was really close >_>

Does the genome hacking use their energy count, too?

No, just mine own. I had 4 energies on Mew and it flipped the coin 4 times.

Oh, that's neat.

Genome Hacking is what Ditto wishes it had

You not wrong due to the energy type limitation but, Ditto can use an attack of a powerful poke before they've even been placed on the field. So there's still something of a unique advantage to it.

Genome Hacking is also a complete waste in certain situations, like Pikachu ex. Unless for some reason you use Mew in a lightning deck.

Out of like 40 battles, this was the 1st and only time I used Genome Hacking lol. Mew is just a wall for me to set up Alakazam otherwise

Still running my goofy Starmie/Blastoise deck. Went up against a Celebi that hit 2 heads and 8 tails against my Blastoise with 0 energy. Flipped 4 heads on a Misty, added an energy and destroyed the Celebi. Real heart of the cards type shit.

Not a bad pull from the free pack lol

I made a Golem deck & I keep forgetting Brock works on it.

To be fair its a little tough to fit in when most mons you want to pair with Golem also want Leaf to switch, and you only can use it on Golem (not its pre-evos).

I like having Brock though, getting a turn 3 Guard Press is pretty awesome when it works out, plus I like to run it with Onix and double Giovanni these days, sometimes if my draws arent looking good for Golem I can flex into powering up Onix as a holdover so its not as passive as Drudd
