I tried 2 decks with Alakazam that were pretty good : - one with marshadow and Farfetch'd to make Early pressure and finish the game with Alakazam - one with the new exxegcute a exxgecutor EX and 1 celebi and 2 erika to have an early Tank line up and finish the game with alakazam. Both deck are vert strong and boh runs the slab, you dont necessary need a lot of psyshic pokemon for this card to work, since if its not a paychic type pokemon, it will put the card as the last card in your deck, so if you have everything that you need except Alakazam line you can play it without much drawbcak even if you dont find it
Hey I just wanted to say I watch a lot of Pocket streamers and you are by far the best at explaining your thought process, talking strategy and being entertaining all at once. You also play interesting and viable decks that don't always require rare cards. Love your content bud.
He's a CCG content creator legend tbh, top tier interesting deck builder in any one he plays. Tangent opinion - Pocket has a lot going for it and I'm sure I'll be logging in for a while, but I really hope it gets more complicated or another banger CCG like Legends of Runeterra comes out (or they reboot it). Nothing has filled the void since they stopped PvP expansions
Gengar EX is very solid now. With the addition of mythical slab it’s easier to draw into, and now blocks the new important supporter cards like leaf. Would love to see you build a deck around it.
You know how mad & annoying these kids are when mog just makes a video without going live. Take as much rest as you need King. And we'll see you tomorrow 🫰🏻🫰🏻
Glad to see someone else come to the conclusion that Lilligant is a better pairing for Celebi than Serperior, I didn't add the basic exeggcutor's, just the EX's myself, but I like it.
I have been waiting for persian to be used at least once, I don't know how much time I got left on this earth, but it would really suck if we never get to see a persian deck and it makes me sad.
There was a deck that got 3rd in a tournament. It ran machamp ex, 2 meowths, 1 Persian, 1 Pokédex. Not my favorite list but it can work. I hope things get better for you.
You've tried Volcarona twice now right, Mog? I'd love to see it work but it just seems terrible. It's like can only work in a deck as a one-off of Larv & Volc and it gets a finishing hit on a bench pokemon. Real shame imho.
Liligant is a crazy actually. Even if liligant is KOed right after its attack, it's still a neutral result: there is no energy investment lost except the 1st initial energy. Basically that's the same as hitting 50 for 1 energy, that has a chance to remain then snowball
energy-wise it's really efficient, but the problem is it really sucks card/pokemon-wise. a Pokemon that's stage 1 and has only 100 hp and 50 damage just tends to not be good enough for the space in your deck, even if it costs 1 energy. there's tons of Pokemon that are 1 energy for 100 hp 40 damage and they're nowhere near good enough without Blaine.
@@4ndytrout46 lmao cherry picking games from a streamer playing in rando queue doesn't mean it doesn't suck, show me a single tournament where any lilligant deck has a decent win rate
I've always considered Liligant as more of a tempo card then ramp because she usually only give you 2 bonus energy which is how much you put on her. Still having tempo while you build up a big hitter is very strong.
Had a game where I have 2 misplays, late evos, and still won. Just when you thought all turns wasnt doing u any good, ur opponent is suffering more. 🤣 do not concede when it's still winnable.
Just want to say that I appreciate your decks and the thought you put behind each deck’s theme and strategy. Yeah, I can play a boring Celebi or Mewtwo EX deck, but I really prefer trying out your decks when I have all the featured cards no matter how “good” or “bad” they might be. Have had lots of fun with your Seaking/Kingler, Florges, and Dedenne/Dragonite decks.
There’s a deck playing 1 Tauros, 1 mew ex, 2 farfetchd, 2 marshadow, 2 hitmonlee, 2 professor, 2 pokeball, 1 leaf, 2 Sabrina, 2 Giovanni, 2 x speed, 1 potion. It’s been winning tournaments. Requires a lot of decision making but very good.
Compare to alakazam, egg requires stage 1 evole, dmg is kinda better when it can 1 shot 100hp pokemon with 1 energy (which ala can't) and need 1 more energy to function (but it's stage 1 evole so...). And Erika as well...
Love it when you try and slow down when you say we should pick the next deck I'm going for CHATOT xpoke (gyara) tons of items and pokedex combos explained with oak and ball Like a duelyst 101 your style for this game would be so nice, importance of xspeed, 60hp mark, potions, ratios on basics when to pivot etc Option n2 is elheeyem pidgeot w jynx tech and maybe chatot also, or do chatot with fossil lines :D
Lilligant barely saw any play before but ever since Serperior came out it feels like everyone just completely abandoned her, which is a bit sad to me. Love seeing under represented cards like her still being used.
That was legitimately one of the worst possible starts to any game I've ever seen. Not just Pokemon Pocket but any TCG ever, and you WON! I don't know if you're the luckiest or unluckiest person alive but that was crazy.
Hey Mog, 1st thanks for the vids. I’d like to see a Pidgeot & Original aerodactyl deck, they power each other up in the weirdest way. You could probably even throw Beheeyem in there
Hey love your vids man great work always so fun and innovative decks. It would be awesome if you could check out the deck I build. It's a fire/water deck that can shut down huge threats while being an early game menace. It's 2x new Salandit, 2xnew Salazzle, 2x Snom, 2x Frosmoth, 1x Druddigon, 1x new Tauros, 1x Farfetch'd, 1 Potion, 1x X-Speed, 2x Pokeballs, 2x Professor, 2x Giovanni and 1x Sabrina. Tauros is good into Celebi and the Salazzle line in general especially if you find 2 Salandits early with Giovanni and the poison is just insane. Frosmoth can put Gyarados or Golem or any huge threat to sleep that comes in and you can build up Tauros or Druddigon in the back or Druddigon can just be a wall. Farfetch'd is just a great neutral Lead if you don't have the right energy Potion just to survive two hits. Mew could also be good but I wanted to use Tauros. Would love to here your opinion, or improve on it.
I play a similar deck but with serperior and without Celeby. Honestly a pretty consistent deck. I play it with giovanni and no leaf because Serperior will give me the hability to leave the active spot.
Every turn is a curve, develop on curve, evolve on curve, etc. An example would be attacking on curve with Machamp line as you get to attack on turn while evolving from Machop to Machamp say that you put the energy to it in the process as it requires 1 2 3 energy respectively. There could be a better way to explain it but I hope you get the idea 😅
Playing something the earliest turn it can be played. E g. Evolving a pokemon each subsequent turn (as if you had all three in your hand to start with). This is typically the fastest/strongest your deck can be (if the energy requirement of attack is also incremental)
Mog u can try this deck- 2×drudiggon, 2×(ponyta(new)+rapidash(new)), 2×(froakie+frogadier+greninja)+ sabrina+ leaf+ blue+ blaine +2×prof. Research +2×pokeball. The fact thay Greninja and rapidash both use one energy of their own kind makes this deck good.
I wanna see some more golbat love I can't figure the pieces out but I feel like theres a deck that could stomp the whole metagame using it. I had some fun using marshadow golbat as the threat of golbats dmg means you can't leave it alive but celebi AI deck still stomps me usually due to exeggutor.
But is Lilligant really worth it? I mean, you need to invest 2 energy to attack and in most cases you won't be able to attack more then twice because with 100hp most Stage 1s will 2shot her. You end up with all the effort of evolving a pokemon that most of the times gives you back the exact amount you spent to use it. What am I missing?
I hate celebi honestly. The thing with pikachu is that it can deal 90 max (100 with giovanni) however celebi is RNG based and can deal 100 damage very quickly. I hate it when a meta threat is reliant on RNG
Have you tried Chatot + Kabutops +Aerodactyl EX (+ Omastar maybe if possible, i know its dual energy but could be fun to have all 3 fossils in 1 deck). With just fossil pokemon as your other option Chatot will be a guaranteed pokemon in starting hand so you should be able to get those evolutions going faster.
People usually hate Celebi EX so when i play the deck with it and Exeggutor i am trying to build on Exeggutor instead of Celebii EX. And then i regret it because they just destroy my exeggcute instead and i'm like: fk it no more nice guy i will be building energy on Celebi EX from here on out.
What Pokemon want to watch next? Honestly?
I want to see an updated Alakazaam decklist
I tried 2 decks with Alakazam that were pretty good :
- one with marshadow and Farfetch'd to make Early pressure and finish the game with Alakazam
- one with the new exxegcute a exxgecutor EX and 1 celebi and 2 erika to have an early Tank line up and finish the game with alakazam.
Both deck are vert strong and boh runs the slab, you dont necessary need a lot of psyshic pokemon for this card to work, since if its not a paychic type pokemon, it will put the card as the last card in your deck, so if you have everything that you need except Alakazam line you can play it without much drawbcak even if you dont find it
I run ala with beheeyem and sigilyph
I run x2 zam x2 mew x1 sigylyph x2 mythical slab

Gengar EX is not good even with the slab.
I defeated a lot of gengar decks. It needs chatot in my opinion
The issue I find with gengar is even with the solid setup, it's 100 damage attack just makes it very vunerable to alot of the meta
3 Energy 100 attack is super bad and slow.
That first game is the classic Pokemon Pocket experience thanks to the 20 card deck list lmao
Started with the game today. Got nearly all the cards from this deck. Thx man

I've always considered Liligant as more of a tempo card then ramp because she usually only give you 2 bonus energy which is how much you put on her. Still having tempo while you build up a big hitter is very strong.

Good gaming, great deckbuilding, loving video to watch 🫶🏻🫶🏻
Bom fim de ano a você e sua família 🎇
I've been running a Mystical island Eggxecutor, Weezing, Salandit deck and it feels great so far.
Compare to alakazam, egg requires stage 1 evole, dmg is kinda better when it can 1 shot 100hp pokemon with 1 energy (which ala can't) and need 1 more energy to function (but it's stage 1 evole so...).
And Erika as well...

Fair question, and it applies to most of not all tcgs

2×drudiggon, 2×(ponyta(new)+rapidash(new)), 2×(froakie+frogadier+greninja)+ sabrina+ leaf+ blue+ blaine +2×prof. Research +2×pokeball.
The fact thay Greninja and rapidash both use one energy of their own kind makes this deck good.
MegaMogwai's deck builds are very interesting while GODZLYY's deck builds are just like my builds no excitement.
4:03 This is also happening with my last 15 to 17 games. Just item cards and supporters or the stage 2 evolution. Its so irritating.
Energy duping with eevee, moltres, misty!
Dual energy.
The problem is that misty, washout, and moltres are all xenophobic. Sounds wildly inconsistent to me
I do this deck with only difference being I use a mew instead of celebi and it is pretty good :D
I wanna see some more golbat love I can't figure the pieces out but I feel like theres a deck that could stomp the whole metagame using it. I had some fun using marshadow golbat as the threat of golbats dmg means you can't leave it alive but celebi AI deck still stomps me usually due to exeggutor.
Update on alakazam or gengar ?
I did a version of this deck but without the liligant. Only 2 eggs and 1 Celebi as basic pokemon. I got 10 wins in a roll on the event.
Let's try exeggutor-kabutops without leaf energy. It's very fun!
cool cook! gonna yoink it from you xD
But is Lilligant really worth it? I mean, you need to invest 2 energy to attack and in most cases you won't be able to attack more then twice because with 100hp most Stage 1s will 2shot her.

Is Lilligant a nice pair with Venusaur EX?

If i dont have celebi, what can i play in its place?
Me who has pulled every single card except for Celebi Ex, hurts today.

I hate celebi honestly. The thing with pikachu is that it can deal 90 max (100 with giovanni) however celebi is RNG based and can deal 100 damage very quickly. I hate it when a meta threat is reliant on RNG
9:33 you know what else is massive
I had a game recently where I would have won if i drew the stage 2 evo. It was the last card in the deck
Man that first game was so tilting, I would have forfeited 3 times 😭
5 basic Pokémon isn’t enough. We have seen time and time again decks have evolved for the better when more basics were added
Great deck. I only lost coz of some misplays haha
Solid video my brotha
I’ve been trying to tell people about liligant for ages. I use it on my Celebi x Serperior deck and you can just drop 💣s on people
Still hoping for a gogoat deck one day 😢 make him the goat that he is i beg
Can you please make a video about dragonite decks?
Weezing, Mew, and Greninja.
New Exeggutor is so wild!
I run the same deck pretty much but use Serperior. It can waste Celebi and Mewtwo decks
Please build an updated deck around Growlithe/Arcanine. My favorite pokemon. ❤
Can you make deck around Scolipede? please
Is that a Law shirt?
deck with aerodactyl, marshadow and farfetch, super aggro. Want to see your version

With just fossil pokemon as your other option Chatot will be a guaranteed pokemon in starting hand so you should be able to get those evolutions going faster.
All fun and games until you get 6 tails in one game
I think serperior its superior 👀
Exceccutor is an expensive jinx heheh
It's also tankier, can be affected by sabrina, and has a higher base damage. Tradeoffs
Melmetal pls
Yea I love this card
Break from misty I see
Why dont you enter an Ursi tournament Mogwai
“Less reliant on coin flips” but exeggutor does coin flips lol
he said less not completely
Holy Jesus, it's happening again

Please dont erase the twitch and yt chat! they are part of the essence in your videos when u hype or not
He likely did this off stream
do updated omastar deck pls
Deck name should be "My huevos"
You just said Liligant is a trap though?
Awful card. Easier to just place energy slowly while an Egg Ex tanks.
I would say awful, also def easier to hit with Lilligant and apply grass energy. 2 lilligant hits it’s 100 HP dealt and 4 energy on eggy
Wouldn’t*
Nice shirt Mr Miquel
