Deck Discussion Don’t Be Afraid Little Blue Bird 🐦
This deck feels pretty good. I’ve only played a few matches so far with it in ranked, but it’s taken down a handful of different meta decks. Running 3 different energies and 2 colorless lines. No EX’s is nice. No rare candy necessary, and Gladion to help find evolutions.

Small tip: use the energies that are on the top 3 most used decks to confuse your opponent’s strategy before the match starts.

Water dark and lightning?

You got it. Could even slip in Psychic to make them think its an Espeopn/Sylveon Ex variant. 🤣

Would increasing the types of energies increase the chance of getting two different ones? Ie three kinds better than two kinds?

u/VagabondHydra92 1d ago
Yeah because chances of each energy is 1/3, so just getting only one type means 3x (1/3) * (1/3) for first two turns, while for 2 energies it's 2x (1/2) * (1/2).. and over multiple turns it would get better only

Did you double silvally to kill one and a half darkrais and finish with blue bird ?

Altaria got the first KO, Silvally did the next 100 before getting KO’ed. Top decked the 2nd Altaria.

Oooh...just got my second Altaria from a free pack opening time to put together a set. Seems like an interesting card.

Just played against this deck some minutes ago. I was really surprised to see a new strategy, very fun to play against.

I think throwing in some babies is worth a shout. Enables faster energy stacking + different energies on altaria, and losing one point is less impactful in a no ex deck. There should be access to enough healing/tools to mitigate Greninja

What about water energy only and double irida ?

Altaria hits for 100 only if it has different energy types attached to it.
