Burning Shadows Prerelease

Burning Shadows Prerelease Hello Everyone,  Today I went to the Burning Shadows Prerelease at Everything Games in Buffalo Grove, Il. It was a lot of fun, and I went 2-1 in the tournament. Below is a picture of the Deck Box for the prerelease.  What I pulled:  Today I pulled a Full Art Goliospod GX and a Secret Rare Multi Switch. They were both cool. Below is also a picture of the packs that I had for the tournament.  What I played:  I had played the fighting types that came with the deck, plus Mudsdale. Here is a picture of my deck.  Tournament Report:  My first round I lost barely because my opponent topped a heads on Super Scoop Up. So I lost because of it. My second round came down to a top deck and luck. I used Mudsdale to win, and used Kick away and escape rope to win. My third win came from Crabrawler and my opponent could not do anything to win. Overall:  Overall, it was a lot of fun. This set is good for pulling cards. Please follow me on this

Burning Shadows and the 2018 Format

Burning Shadows and the 2018 Format Hello Everyone,  Today I am going to talk about the new set that was leaked on  http://www.pokebeach.com/2017/07/english-burning-shadows-set-list-and-spoilers . It details every card in the set.  I am also going to talk about what cards will be good in the format, as this is the newest set going into the 2018 Season.  I will not post reprints in this article, unless it is a meme or something.  First the Good Synergy Cards:  Goliospod GX:  I think this card is good because, like Caleb Gedemer on Pokebeach mentioned, it is good with certain cards like Zoroark. I like this combo with Zoroark because it is very good at dealing damage, fast. It can be partnered with Float Stone (In Breakthrough) and with Max Potion (Guardians Rising) to maximize potential.  It only needs one energy to do its best attack. Many people are using it with Guzma (Burning Shadows, It's ya boy too). Or even with Olympia (Generations, Also not your

Internationals 2017 Experience

Internationals 2017 Experience Hello everyone,  Today I am going to be talking about how the Internationals at Indianapolis went for me. It was good, but there were some parts that could have been changed. So, I will go into detail and talk about what was good, and what needs to change in order to make Internationals better. Be sure to follow me on this blog, at  playerpokemon.blogspot.com Tournament Itself:  I piloted Espeon Garbodor in the event, and I did well in Round 1, but lost later on. The deck didn't get me what I wanted at times, or things wouldn't work out. I went 4-5 in the end, but the article isn't much about it.  This extended to side events too. One game I went against Lycanroc Zygarde and I started with a Drampa GX tech. That didn't end well. There were also a lot of Zoroark decks.  Even though I didn't do the best, this article is about the experience in going. I have been to several Nationals before they became Internationals. I
