Pokemon Tool: Attach a Pokemon Tool to 1 of your Pokemon that doesn’t already have a Pokemon Tool attached.
When the Pokemon this card is attached to does damage to your opponent’s Active Pokemon and that damage is affected by Weakness, the Weakness becomes ×3 instead.
You may play any number of Item cards during your turn. What dark and fighting types are there that can abuse this to OHKO mew and arceus?
most likely single prizer single strike pokemon, morpeko comes to mind
Jeremiah Powell
what? this is obviously going to be played in zorobox
Jaxon Collins
I mean even in a regular deck if you could drop some random stage 1 like morpeko with this on to ohko mew that would be amazing. It doesn't have to be a toolbox deck, it can just be a tech card. People already run sight to snipe the bench as a tech card as is. So having a 3x weakness will be used as well if you can hit the meta
Luke Ortiz
PTCGL truly fucking sucks, lmao.
Jason Nguyen
yeah, hopefully the pokemon company notices the drops in play and actually fucking fixes the game
Christopher Brown
Has anyone tried putting PTCGL on android on a hacked switch? I wonder if the switch can even handle this poorly optimized mess.
Aiden Cook
Is Rayquaza winning already?
Colton Ward
They need to re make the game from 0 or at least all the UI and the graphics.
Ryan Bennett
I have 3 other people (total of 4, including me) that I know in real life that want to casually play pokemon. What should we be on the lookout for in order to start building our decks? Or anything to avoid? We have the rules down already
Sebastian Morris
You could buy the League Battle decks, wich are some pre build decks that are good to play casualy and with some upgrades you can get a tier S/A deck or get the Battle Academy box wich comes with 3 decks, although those decks are not as good as the LBD ones.
Adrian Myers
Thanks a lot, looks like league battle decks were what we were looking for to at least get started. What do people do about weaknesses? There's no way people just play the matchup taking double damage, right?
Josiah Harris
it had some decent results in online tourneys, but never anything above top 32 iirc
Austin Kelly
If you play it with friends, you can just ignore it, but in normal matches you play with that mechanic. Finding ways to sort out the weakness in your deck is a big part of the deckbuilding ability. Some people use specific pokemon as secondary attackers just to play them in a match up against a type that has the advantage.
Julian Rodriguez
>Finding ways to sort out the weakness in your deck is a big part of the deckbuilding ability. Do you have any examples of this? As far as I can tell each deck just has one weakness and none of that type has any different weaknesses. So like water is always weak to electric, even if the pokemon in the video game wouldn't be,
Isaiah Butler
You can use secondary attackers for the matchup that have the type advantage. Some Urshifu decks (weak to psychic) have one or two copies of Galarian Moltres V (Dark type) so they can handle psychic mons like Dragapult or Calyrex. Decks like Mew can attack with Genesect V (using it as a tech mon and secondary attacker at the same time) if matched against a dark type deck and I recently saw one version of the deck that plays a Galarian Moltres (Dark Type) to have and advantage in a mirror match. And no, in the TCG water is not always weak to electric, water usually is weak to either electric, grass or metal; since types are grouped in ¨main¨types (water, fire, electric,figthing, psychic, dark, grass, metal and normal) the weakness in pokemon with the ¨same¨ type are different. For example in a Calyrex V/Suicune V deck, both pokemon are water type, but since ice is within the water type, Calyrex is weak to metal while Suicune is weak to electric, so in some matchups you will be better playing suicune as your main attacker, in some others you will be bettter with Calyrex and sometimes it will be more about how the game develops
Easton Carter
Is there any ability similar to the pokemon power of slowking or noctowl neo?
Any trainer card equivalent to item finder?
Isaiah Torres
Trevenant is the closest to Slowking but powercreep bit its back
Alright, so how would I get a grass deck to not fall over to fire? I've been combing through the last few sets starting from sword and shield and every grass has been weak to fire. Are multi-color decks common at all?
Ryder Lee
If you consider arceus box decks, then yes. But mono type decks work because of consistency. In ptcg, consistency gets you very far. Though there is a new grass supporter coming out called Gardenia's Vitality that might help your grass decks alot.
