Most meta decks I see forsure are Mewtwo/Gardevoir, Pikachu Ex, Articuno/Starmie, Charizard/Moltres. Pretty much any deck that can either accelerate energy and/or hit hard fast are favored. Poison trap decks w weezing/arbok/muk do super well too but I rarely see them .
I agree for me I see a lot Articuno when it comes to water deck and I do see Mewtwo alot and then Moltres and then Pikachu. Pikachu is good against water deck ,Moltres and Zapdos for some reason even though it electric type kinda ironic 😅 does good damage alot of the cards besides ex
@@mangkedelupe3125 it's Pikachu EX. If only for the fact that Pikachu will 2 shot starmie anytime and most electric types can oneshot Staryu if your Starmie is even one turn late.
I've been sitting quietly with Greninja since launch waiting to see when this would get some attention! It's a deck concept that's massively overshadowed by Misty decks with water, but I've really been enjoying Greninja and Pidgeot for maximum board control. Game's too fast for it so it's really only better than the Nido deck, but still loads of fun!
Props for trying out something different, although i agree that starmie is pretty good in this type of deck, ninjas being ninjas lol Bruxish (?) is definitely pretty good but lapras i dont like as much. Also playing greninja with other low cost attackers could be pretty good too.
I’ve been using this deck a ton except with snom and frosmoth instead of Lapras and bruxish as a bit of wall! PS when Oct 30th rolls around could you make a vid on how to safely migrate from New Zealand app to US. I’m scared I’ll somehow lose everything 😅
Gunna try myself once I get snorlax, but can you try a dragonite with snorlax deck? Same as the one with the stall koffing, but instead switch those 4 Pokémon to 2 snorlax, and then run 2 extra support/filler cards (whichever), so Pokémon=2 snorlax, 2 lines of dragonite, rest=support cards
Got 1 Charizard ex moving background or whatever it's called, 2 Charizard ex full art, 1 moltres ex full art, 1 moltres ex, 2 greninja and still no Starmie ex?! What the heck?!!!
Can anyone explain how I’m able to now play Pokemon pocket WITHOUT a vpn? All week I’ve needed a vpn due to restrictions. Today I opened the game and it let me straight in without my vpn on as I forgot to put it on but the game loaded anyway ? Have they fully released it without saying?
I've been experiencing the same thing. I've heard before that you technically only need the vpn for the first login and then you're fine. But that's never been my experience until recently.
@@OGjdog any time I’ve gone on the game without vpn it comes up saying access restricted I then have to put the vpn on to get on the game once I’m on it I can close the vpn and turn it off. But today I clicked on the game forgetting to put the vpn on and it just loaded up anyway without the access restricted message was very confusing.
Day 100 of the Pokémon pocket soft launch: I have lost all touch with time and reality I now exists as an energetic form that waits.
@@spearshaker7974 honey wake up u were having a nightmare, the soft launch ended 70 days ago

Most efficient is Starmie Ex Deck. Super quick to trash any team. Best card in game Starmie Ex.

@mangkedelupe3125 yeah for 2 energy it hits just as hard as pika ex with a full bench & 0 retreat is solid.

This deck is what i plan to play when the game launches
@14:40 you should ask that pidgeot whether he feels like a man when he pushes you around
Omg I used to play greninja all the time on the tcgo :0 so glad to see some things never changes :D

gren + articuno is really OP you're just raining down blows on the enemy bench non stop
How do you get greninja

I got this deck but instead of using Articuno and Lapras, I use a Tentacruel set. It goes pretty well and has a great synergy.
Jake, you need a Tails counter on your stream

Yeah, I am just missing the Mistys and one of the Froakies. Sabrina too but I will find her sooner or later
Also use a greninja deck. I use articuno and kingler as my sweepers filled out with items and suppoerters
I don't play so I don't run into decks, cool deck idea but maybe run one Greninja instead of two?
No, you always want to maximize the number of a evolution line to get consistency.
how many packs did it take to pull the ninja? I have yet to see one
Swap in some Psyducks to disrupt your opponent from using supporters early and Golducks aren't too shabby for damage either
Now with lapras ex any updates?
Is it not better to go second since you get energy first?
If you have Articuno ex why would you need extra basic Pokemon that aren't Greninja family?
This.

snorlax provides 40 extra tank HP, without needing to evolve either, not sure if it’ll work but I think it’s an interesting switch
Did I hear Ipad? I thought it was only android. How'd you manage that?
Got 1 Charizard ex moving background or whatever it's called, 2 Charizard ex full art, 1 moltres ex full art, 1 moltres ex, 2 greninja and still no Starmie ex?! What the heck?!!!
I got Crown Mewtwo on 4th pack opening on my 8th account reroll 😂
Water - Electric Bench Killer deck
Zebstrika-Dragonite-articuno ex-greninja-Seadra
Is the game out? How am I able to play without vpn?
Venusaur deck is my #1, so tanky with 2x Erika cards should be illegal haha
Anyone also run into a game breaking bug where the energy your tried to place, gets stuck above a card and you’re unable to place any energy all game?
Look I might just have good luck the last couple days but every misty I’ve had played against me has rolled tails first flip😬
Very strong and fun deck. Unfortunately it gets destroyed by electric decks unless you get the cheesy misty luck with articuno or lapras turn 1
@@coolcourd Yeh considering how meta pickachu ex is this deck probably won't be insanely busted but it's still a solid fun deck
Take bruxish and lapras out and put any combination of red card/Giovanni and this deck get better
Would rare candy break this game? I want rare candy and I haven’t even played yet.
That's literally my deck I don't use lapras though 🤫🤫
Some random guy used artinuno ex first turn, got 6 energies with misty and killed all of my card turn one.
Pokemon tcg pocket in a nutshell:
Must have been better to show it vs pikachu as thats the main deck rn
Can i still unlock greninja?? Not sure how to get it
Charizard packs and there's a greninja event in coming.
Love you Jake!
Can anyone tell me how to transfer Pokemon between two accounts? Is there a guide?
It's Pidgeot, not Pidgit. I would love to hear it said correctly. 😊
