This was for sure a really great back and forth. Thanks for making this vid. I really enjoy this matchup, for reasons you showed in the video! Much allreciated!
Is this music a remix of something from the video games, or is it directly pulled from an original source (such as the anime, or even from the video games themselves). I really am curious, but I’m also seeing if this comment will actually appear, because TH-cam seems to have eaten my last two comments on this video. The ones I referenced under the RaiEggs versus Eeveelutions video that I said were probably lagging.
Turns out TH-cam’s algorithm usually takes down comments with direct links, and my comment had direct links to Jason Klaczynski’s blog and PTCG Retro Library, Sean Worcest’s blog. The gist of the message was that I guessed the Dragonite deck was from the EX Block Format because it ran Holon Mentor, when Delta Species wouldn’t be printed until after 2006 Pokémon Worlds, and that I would like to see the Delcatty/Electrode ex deck (nicknamed “BombCatty”) from Worcest’s blog (the variant with Surprise! Time Machine) battle your 2007 Absolutions deck if you were still accepting requests or suggestions. I have made several long comments on your videos in the past 24 hours and hope it isn’t too much. Hope you and your wife are doing well, Sincerely, Charmaster
@@Charmaster04 Actually Holon Mentor was released in late 2005 so it was tournament legal for the 2006 world championships. I borrowed the list from Ptcgarchive
Yeah it was actually really good, there was good deck variety and come-back mechanics to make games exciting. But for me personally, my favorite is 2007 because we had access to all the delta species pokemon which were my favorite pokemon!
@@holon_phantom nice! Thanks for the videos. I played in 2002 Neo era and didn’t play again until 2022 standard format. Totally hooked again and I go to tournaments regularly
Hey, would you be open to collaborating on some retro and/or unlimited games? I started a new series recently where I revive or reimagine classic decks.

For sure! We had a lot of fun playing it, too! I thought that I had it with LBS at the end, but the Rocket energy sealed the game for Dragtrode
What an ending! Hope to see more battles from old formats in the near future!
I almost thought the Lugia deck would win but the Dragonite had the right remaining moves after the stadium killed the lugia.
Great video! The music was on point!
Thanks! I love that song!

Some say this was the best format of all time. Thoughts?
