Thanks. Is it best just picking something which would work with Drampa-GX, from the newer cards.

Yes, don't have multiple, except Yveltal EX, which I missed off. Sounds like it's easier to just start from scratch with 'something', as it only saves on real cost if you string a couple of these existing ones together.

Is this card going to be a big player, as per the hype? How would you build a deck around it. Thanks very much.

Apologies, haven't checked if all these are valid in Standard yet. GX - Drampa, Tauros, Snorlax. EX - Gardevoir RC30, Xerneas XY07, M Ray Dragon 61/108, M Latios 59/108, Latios 58/108, Noivern Break 113/162, Ray XY73, Mewtwo XY183, Ho-Oh Break XY154, M Blastoise 18/83, Blastoise XY30, Kyogre...

Hands, thanks. Will have a chat to my son tonight after work, and look at the cards. Not sure he'll take too kindly to being asked to change the deck again! Anyway, would need to convince him that it's in his best interests long term! Having said that - maybe we can go for Yveltal at this...

Hands, thanks, that's very considerate of you. So, as per the other thread we?ll do things properly. Based on 2 Yveltal-EX, 2 Yveltal O.Wing, 1 Drampa-GX, 1 Shaymin/Lele, which basics/lines would you add. We have Tauros-GX/Ninja Boy so would like to add that in I think. Had one vote for Muk...

Ok, you have twisted my arm! Will get most/all the staples required. Re the deck, please could you contribute to this thread (Decidueye, thanks already). https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?p=9649543 Are you suggesting that any decks reliant on a lot of energy acceleration will be...

Ok, humour me for a bit! If you were playing Yveltal-EX, Yveltal O.Wing, Drampa and Tauros, then regardless of trainers and Shaymin/Lele, would you play any other basics/lines or just more of the same? Thanks.

Agreed, we wouldn't go to a Regional without a lot of practice and at least a deck that won't be humiliated.

Hi all, would appreciate some advice on partners for Yveltal-EX, in Standard. Am helping my son (9) create his first deck, for local tournaments. We have chopped and changed quite a few times (much to his annoyance) but have settled on the following, although now appreciate (thanks others) this...

We had thought of Darkrai EX but ruled it out due to cost, may stretch to putting one in, or wait to Darkrai-GX. We have Yveltal/Yveltal EX/Drampa (and also Tauros actually), so just need to think about additional lines or more of the former. I know it seems petty but I don't want to spend money...

Thanks for the reply. re Muk - I was going to leave this til the end re buying anyway. Having re-read things then you may be right about old Garbodor being better, but it may depend on the deck. http://pokemonaustralia.com/card-clash-comparing-the-new-and-the-old/ re Rainbow Energy - yes, had...

Thanks. Have put a deck in the other forum which hopefully puts more context on it. https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=392621

As per previous posts I'm trying to help my son create his first deck. He was set on using Snorlax GX but after looking at a number of SUM/GRI set reviews with him he likes the look of Drampa GX and as he has some Yveltal we thought the following deck would suit (as it seems to be getting play...

Thanks for the replies, will look into those cards.
