I can't believe he actually showed that loss against Alolan Raichu! And it's actually the funniest game out of the three: it's a cool deck and Andrew's reaction is just priceless. Very entertaining
I know nothing about modern TCG but I feel like that deck needs more grass energies. Could of attacked sooner. And or another attacker with low energy cost
Thanks for the exposure Andrew. I feel like this is my big break. I also would like to thank Coach Tyler,”The Dark Box King” for all his guidance to get me to this moment in my Pokémon career.
JW played a similar list in a tournament a few weeks ago, and he really liked the idea of Sonia being played in the list over a bridgette or two to have better access to the energy, just because you won’t necessarily need access to three of your basics at the same time. Either way, one of my favorite videos of yours is the rowlegg video from Christmas time last year, you couldn’t stop cackling like a mad man. Love the stream and videos :)
@Tricky Gym: Andrew, i am new to your videos and i just wanna say i apreciate them a lot. You are a great communicator and your thought process explanations are the best in the biz. Thank you.
The venusaur with the jungle totem could let you use the full of rowlet and alolan exegutors tropical hour gx to put all your opponents energy into their deck
I just got shut down by this deck. I killed their Alolan Exeggutor quickly and thought I had the game in the bag then a Vileplume I couldn't attack came out into the active and another on the bench prevented escape ropes. No Guzma/Boss's Orders in my deck ;_(. Literally couldn't do anything.
It's Steven Resolve. The reason is that you draw the cards at the end of the turn, meaning that your opponent could disrupt your hand on the following turn. When that card was legal, basically every deck was running 4 copies of N, so it was not that great.
How do you make it to when you play a card it only shows it on the screen for like 1 second? For me whenever I play a card it stays on the front of my screen for like 3-4 seconds. Pls help
I have one question, would Sonia be a good substitute for Bridgette? Sure you can only get 2 basics instead of 3, but you have the option of getting energy if you need it as well.
Kind of a slimy way to win. It’s bad enough Yugioh plays flood gates… I normally like expanded because you can play against Mewtwo & Mew, ADP, PikaRom and decks like that
I gueess it is because Vmaxes are uncommon in expanded. Snorlax and etenreas are good however are easily countered by sudowoodo and parallel city so most players view them as too risky. Inteleon is good on paper but lightning decks are fairly common and push it out of the meta. Centiscorth will beat this deck and so will coalossal nether of them are very common decks but if you are afraid of them then decidueye will beat them both.
@@alessandromasini7697 I meant to say dragaplut instead of coalossal I mixed the 2 up (although coalossal is okay). Still only one of them is a common choice (dragaplut). I'm guessing hes not teching decidueye for that matchup since they can go into wobb into stadium bump then attach a tool to garbodor and ko your decidueye.
Vs seeker , Guzma, trainer mail , ace spec such as dowsing machine , computersearch , pick up dedene and crobat , battle compressor , quick ball, ultra ball
anyone saw the ptcgradio video today about ace trainer? then there is this deck. hum, does expanded need to be better managed? also is battle compressor the card that defines the format?
@@alexmezz4923 "supposed" as by desing or simply lack of management? i see compressor as a super card that is the engine of some decks- night march, turbo dark. while adding consitency to all decks. also, grave hate is not really a thing so a deck like night march runs free. what would you think are the most important cards of the format?
@@goncaloferreira6429 expanded is built by design to by wild , compressor is a very good card that powers decks , but cards like ultra ball , Guzma , vs seeker , Dede gx, crobat v see the same amount of play if not more , stall runs off of vs seeker , ultra ball is a amazing search card,
Some format defining cards are vs seeker , hypnotoxic Lazer paired with Burbank, also garbodar with garbotoxin and item lock vileplume as they are key cards that force you to play around them
Toxic decks like this do not belong in the game because while one person gets to play, the other one doesn't. Really makes the tcg look like a joke. Terrible user experience does not foster the growth of a game or a community. The only good thing about it, is that you can insta-abandon and deter this kind of toxic shit from becoming the meta, at least for the online experience.
the purpose of AZ is to pick up extra pokemon so they cannot gust around vileplume for prizes. For that to work you need to use AZ instead of acerola as your opponent does not always damage every pokemon.
@@RiseAgainst369 yeah youre right. Also, yu gi oh is just the game you dont wanna play during this current era. It may be good way back then but look at it now, it really escalated quickly.

I can't believe he actually showed that loss against Alolan Raichu! And it's actually the funniest game out of the three: it's a cool deck and Andrew's reaction is just priceless. Very entertaining
I was watching it on stream, you should’ve seen chats reaction
Andrew is a class act.
Yeah chat went absolutely wild over the Raichu deck, love a spicy deck like that
Ah expanded, the wild west of Pokémon.
I hate/love it
Then there is unlimited, which is hell
legacy is wilder and wester
That Alolan Raichu/ Electrode deck at the end was hilarious!
Can't wait for your take on the deck Tricky!
Wait until vmax tapu with electrode
"Whats that dark place over there?" "Oh, that is the expanded format.. you must never go there son"
Rowlegg is buns. Electrode looks like the sauce
I know nothing about modern TCG but I feel like that deck needs more grass energies. Could of attacked sooner.
And or another attacker with low energy cost
@@1XSTEALTHTWINTURBOX1 you’re right about the energy
@@1XSTEALTHTWINTURBOX1 Vileplume GX or Shuckle G
Always love your expanded decks because I have no idea how to build them. New player here just figuring out standard deck building. Keep them comming.
I’m waiting on the electrode deck with raichu..
Also where do I buy stickers ??
Full Grip Games! @fullgripgames
Can NOT wait for the richu spread deck.
Haha I'm the player who played MewMew Tag team )))) Well play, Good deck ))))
Now I need to get my eggrow before they spike, and you need to play alolan raichu ;)
Thanks for the exposure Andrew. I feel like this is my big break. I also would like to thank Coach Tyler,”The Dark Box King” for all his guidance to get me to this moment in my Pokémon career.
But the list tho?
that raichu list was fire man
The whole chat was rooting for you man. Thank you for the fun!
this is the deck that got me into Expanded, glad to see that it gets alot of attention cant wait for my cards to arrive!
JW played a similar list in a tournament a few weeks ago, and he really liked the idea of Sonia being played in the list over a bridgette or two to have better access to the energy, just because you won’t necessarily need access to three of your basics at the same time.

Your laugh on 1.5x speed is the best😁😅
Wow nice play at the end. Crazy decks on both sides.
Decks like this make me realise how good Andrew actually is at the game. Standard doesn't show of his skill well enough, in it's current state
@Tricky Gym: Andrew, i am new to your videos and i just wanna say i apreciate them a lot. You are a great communicator and your thought process explanations are the best in the biz. Thank you.
I don't normally like faster formats, but this. This might be what finally does it. I might *gasp* venture outside standard!
That Raichu deck was a hilarious game! Class act playing to the end!
Love these video keep them coming
That Electrode match . . . I believe that was "as Garfield intended", as it were.
I’ve always learned to ko sooner rather than later.
Would go for Sonia rather than birgette to have the possibilty to get energy if u needed to
The prediction of the no magical swap then scoop was insane
I like that you actually showed a defeat in this one. That deck was creative.
At 39:25 I still don't know how they were able to attack 3 Pokemon because the Raichu attack says choose one of your opponent's Pokemon.
With all due respect, I would rather eat my cards than play against this deck
The venusaur with the jungle totem could let you use the full of rowlet and alolan exegutors tropical hour gx to put all your opponents energy into their deck
I keep trying to double tap the cards to see them better 😂 😂 😂
that electro rain raichu was hilarious 😂
Well, I know which video I'm looking forward to now!
And decidueye version?
Didn’t know the website used to be called full grip codes
Why didn't you Steven into a stadium?
tbh i want to make the alolan raichu electro rain deck but still confused how to make it. thank you andrew
I just got shut down by this deck. I killed their Alolan Exeggutor quickly and thought I had the game in the bag then a Vileplume I couldn't attack came out into the active and another on the bench prevented escape ropes. No Guzma/Boss's Orders in my deck ;_(. Literally couldn't do anything.
Yo, that Raichu list lowkey looks sauce af.
Pretty sure this is illegal in most states?
Yo, could you try making a deck with Ninetales V? I don't know if I'm missing something but it seems to have decent potential
Gotta scoop when I play Necrozma and this shows up😃
Saw this deck months ago. Had a big bug that wouldn't let you evolve through the tag team
Hello I love your content please keep up the good work
why do people dislike these kind of videos?
Yooooo that Raichu deck!
Weird to see Andrew play control / stun
thoughts on triple boost or maybe one of those aerobatic grass energies
Why choose guzma if you have boss orders?
Do you have a expanded mew3 deck idea on the horizon?
Been playing raichu for a while. but my list and playstyle is kinda different. I use life dew instead
Life Dew is in that list too
any consideration for playing the darkness ablaze decidueye? I've seen some streamers teching or considering it for some of the vmax matchups
Best deck in expanded hands down.
Hey Andrew how do you feel abt this deck with a decidueye line as well?
Looks like I’m playing phione for the next week while everyone is hype on this deck lol
This is why I play Red's challenge instead of computer search. Also, I can't afford computer search 😂
I'm lucky my favorite deck counters this one
Disgusting pollen. By 2nd turn, they can evolve into Vileplume and multiple oddish are sure pain in the arse.. dang
I'd use tag call over Brigitte and add sonia
This is going to annoy the hell out of my cousin. : D
Another comment: How was N's Resolve ever legal? That card seems ridiculously good. Practically a draw three, but you get to pick what you want.
It's Steven Resolve. The reason is that you draw the cards at the end of the turn, meaning that your opponent could disrupt your hand on the following turn. When that card was legal, basically every deck was running 4 copies of N, so it was not that great.
Its even broken when you could play supporter on first turn. Buuut marshadow and judge are everywhere
How do you make it to when you play a card it only shows it on the screen for like 1 second? For me whenever I play a card it stays on the front of my screen for like 3-4 seconds. Pls help
Clicking makes it go away
Should have knocked out Mewtwo & Mew when you had the chance
I have one question, would Sonia be a good substitute for Bridgette? Sure you can only get 2 basics instead of 3, but you have the option of getting energy if you need it as well.
Kind of a slimy way to win. It’s bad enough Yugioh plays flood gates… I normally like expanded because you can play against Mewtwo & Mew, ADP, PikaRom and decks like that
If I see you in expanded I will literally quit because that is the most trolling deck ever🤣
hood wouldnt allow a basic to attack the plume. it doesnt allow an ex/gx to attack keldeo gx
It does allow you to attack Plume because Plume’s ability is an effect on your pokémon, whereas Keldeo is only an effect on itself.
@@natalieshampay214 my apologies and thank you for the currection. i thought plumes ability was on itself
I’m gutted I can’t play this on my iPhone
This deck would be better win N instead of marine
Are these vileplumes still in rotation? I remember playing against these in TCGO like 4 or 5 years ago.
Expanded format
But how are you gonna deal with Vmaxes without decidueye?
I gueess it is because Vmaxes are uncommon in expanded. Snorlax and etenreas are good however are easily countered by sudowoodo and parallel city so most players view them as too risky.

@@kingwailord4143 Centiskorch, Trashapult, Eternatus and Snorlax are all established expanded archeotypes that you can't ignore

I’m new to Pokémon I know what standard is but what is expanded?
Anything since Black & White sets (including). As you can imagine it has a much bigger ban list too.
@@speedyboost_ thanks
What are some good staple expanded cards to pick up?
Vs seeker , Guzma, trainer mail , ace spec such as dowsing machine , computersearch , pick up dedene and crobat , battle compressor , quick ball, ultra ball
Why does your bench shuffle along when you play silent lab?
Because silent lab turns off Sudo woodo on my opponents field

You have no idea how it works
Whats the point in wearing a hat?
This deck seems like the pokemon version of Yugioh's Mystic Mine
Yugioh is not at the level of pokemon. Dont bring that dross here
