    Sp I've been thinking about next format, and I've decided I will need something that will work for a while, so I turened to HGSS sets, and I found Primes and Legends.
    But my question is, Which ones(Besides maybe popular ones) are good to base a Deck on?
     
    Either works, actually.
    Though, After looking through, support may be easier to choose.
    A combo could work too!(Like Yanmega+Meganium+Celibi)
     
    Yeah, things that require 2 Stage 2s and a stage 1 are slow :/
    I hope there are some good ones in CoL.
     
    Well, I got it working moderately quickly. The thing with Ninetales is that it's PokePower Roast Reveal has you discard a fire energy to draw 3 cards, and Typhlosion Prime's Afterburner brings that energy back from the discard pile and puts it on one of your Pokemon, while the non-prime Typhlosion would be your heavy-hitting attacker.
     
    I know their abilities, I just think without 2 rare candies 1st turn and a little luck, it would be a little slow.
    Feraligater seems like it could be used in a Water Deck.
    I dunno though, I kinda prefer stage 1/Basic pokemon.*Shrug*
     
    Legends have been severely underplayed since their release, the only one that really caught on was entei/raikou legend as a tech in luxchomp. I can't really recommend a good legend list, but as for primes, aside from the fire one donavannj mentioned I can say that magnezone prime/feraligatr prime is an interesting deck that is getting more popular, and of course gengar prime is spiking in popularity now that lost world is coming out.
    I'm pretty sure call of legends is all reprints aside from the shiny pokemon, at least that's what I've heard so far.
     
    Magnegatr Looks interesting, and I've always kinda liked contradicting type-decks.
    I'll see how much both are, and pick the less expensive one, I guess.
    Thanks for the input.
    Also, I thought I might throw this out there, CoL also has the rest of Lost link in it.

    You're right, I always lose track of what hasn't been released in English yet because we get so far behind from Japan. As for good stage 1 decks, I think lucario might be a decent choice as it has somewhat of a counter for lostgar.
