126th (9-5-1) at Indianapolis for +40 points!
List felt great, though Pokemon Catcher is the biggest fraud ever.
Thank you to everyone for the support! Iโm so proud to have gotten the back to back Day 2s, let alone with Bolt/Shocks again!
Weโll get the third day 2 at NAIC!!!
insane cus this is a possible T1 board
Opening Hand: Lapras ex, 4 Dialga/Nest or Heavy Ball, Crispin, Glistening Crystal, top deck Research, attach Crystal to Lapras, Crispin a water energy to Lapras and manual attach the steel, land 20 steel on Larimar Rain
the release of terapagos ex implies the other three leaked ones (galvantula, lapras, and cinderace) are real and i cannot wait to see my opponent look at the top 20 cards of their deck and attach 20 steel to dialga V or some bullshit
fixed my account error lol
Got my first day 2 ever with RAGING BOLT SANDY SHOCKS!!! Finished at 8-5-2 for 166th/2639, +30 pts.
Even if the deck ran badly in day two, Iโm still so happy to have my first day two with my favorite deck Iโve ever played!
MUโs posted below
I GOT MY FIRST CUP WIN! with Bolt- jk it was with Gardy!
Super happy to finally have won a cup! Been in cup finals 3 times, and I finally won! (funnily enough all three times
@FlemingPTCG
has been my finals opponent)
+50 pts, +31 TWM packs, +10 Series 4 packs
MUs in comments!
just had an unwinnable boardstate vs zard, dusknoir twice to make us both draw 2 prizes to cause sudden death, lose the coin flip, lead rotom, iono to 1.
zard evolves benched dusknoir to cause sudden death 2, i win the coin flip, then got T2 dragapult to KO mander for game ๐ญ
Finished 4-3-2 for 714th at NAIC (according to )!! +50 points puts me at 329 points, so Iโm glad to have gotten half the invite in my first real season playing!
Hereโs the bolt list I was playing, was a lot of fun but definitely needs tweaking somewhere.
Finished building Bolt/Ogerpon in Japanese! Iโll be able to play this in some local events, though I donโt have time to until next week ๐
Also this list is not final whatsoever bug catching set is probably a fraud but weโll see
Finished 5-3-1 for 481st place at Charlotte for +20 championship points! Acerolas was unironically one of the best cards in the deck, and while the list (posted below) could use some improvements, it worked really well, and for hitting 4 bad MUโs Iโm pretty happy with my record!
I know this post is late but it feels SO GOOD to finally have my own limitless page + being able to get a first time limitless page for Raging Bolt ex and Sandy Shocks ex (even if another player did it too). Hereโs to me getting another entry at Indy!
Season Recap-
I achieved a lot of goals for my first season, and finished at 327 points!
Win a Challenge โ
Win a Cup โ

Iโm super proud of being able to get so far in my first season, especially when half of it was in the last two months! Full breakdown below
2nd Place at the Jackson Arena League Cup with Gholdengo!
Gholdengo works and is so fun!
If youโre using this list cut 1 gear for super rod, you NEED rod.

2nd at The Arena Cup w/ Bolt Shocks! Misplayed in final game of the set to lose it (and started squawk ๐ญ) easily could have won. Definitely the play for Orlando though!

NAIC Thread- Will I get Day 2
#3
? Will I go 0-3 drop to Bourbon Street??? Find out soon!!!!
Got 2nd (2-1) at my first event in Japan (a Gym Battle, small casual tournament) with Bolt/Pon!
Was not expecting to play rock paper scissors for the coin toss LMAO, all my opponents were very nice despite the language barrier.
L Gouging Fire/Valiant
W Ancient Box
W Sablezard
bought a greninja ex box and a kingdra ex box and pulled every playable i need and the $50 earthen vessel to make my money back my luck goes crazy today
the release of terapagos ex implies the other three leaked ones (galvantula, lapras, and cinderace) are real and i cannot wait to see my opponent look at the top 20 cards of their deck and attach 20 steel to dialga V or some bullshit
Got my hair dyed then went 3-1 in a Gym Challenge in Japan today! Was 3-0 then lost due to a good Iono from my opponent and a bad misquence that cost me the game. All the 3-0s in R4 were Raging Bolt Ogerpon too, which was sick to see!!
W Miraidon
W Gardy
W Chien Pao

Zoroark, from SV6a!
CC - Illusion Jack 60x
This attack does 60 damage for each of your opponent's Pokรฉmon ex and Pokรฉmon V in play.
DCC - Claw Slash 110
I havenโt posted a decklist in a while but I rebuilt Bolt/Pon from scratch and itโs been super fun! Brick games are rare- at the last cup I didnโt have a single one and my losses were due to misplays, not bricks (finished 3-2).
Give it a try and let me know what yall think!
won the gaming cantina challenge with mewtwo gardy lmao
R1 Moon W
R2 Rapid Strike Lugia W
R3 Gholdengo W
R4 LZB Moon/Hands/Kyogre W
+15 cp, +1 stamped forest seal stone and garbage bulk :3
Won Team Rocket League Day 92 with Bolt/Pon/Shocks! Decklist is honestly really weird but it reminds me of good ol Bolt/Shocks with a little more power.
pokemon catcher sucks ๐ whiffed so many i lost count
@VicVonGloom
6-2-1, Lugia LWW
I am too tired and exhausted to explain the games, but:
G1: Opponent set up too fast
G2: Opponent set up 1 archeops, couldnโt do enough damage
G3: Opponent ran out of attackers, and I managed to take it after an insanely long set.
BACK TO BACK DAY 2S WITH BOLT!!!
GG
@Cristian9032
6-0!!!! (Won the for fun match too) +0 pts +$20
I had a ton of fun playing this, and I hope yall had a fun time watching! Weโll have another one sometime, and Iโll be commentating then!
Still cant believe i won the LZ match though LMFAO
Finished 4th in
@Derocker714
โs GLC Tournament with Dragon!
Cutting Necrozma was so good and bad that I have no clue how to feel about it. Deck ran well, just loses badly to water, and runs out of attackers if you arenโt careful. MUs below
+12 Packs, +1 Bolt Mat, +1 4th Place Mew
@PokeDuelsTikTok
Iโve managed to send this back through the twitter time rift but I donโt think Iโm making it back from Worlds alive. Meowscarada ex w/ Dusknoir is real. NOT A MEME. You need to change whatever your deck is to beat it or play it instead. It cannot be beaten
@TheMintMermaid
okay hear me out
use brute bonnet, poison the opponent, use the 130 (170 w/ mochi) and switch, promote pecharunt, 240 damage done with a single prizer in active
The Bolt Break is over! Came back to Bolt, entered a mickey, and won at 5-0! List is pretty solid, no complaints, though be careful on energy/Ogerpons left in deck.
R1 Zard W
R2 No-Show W
R3 Loyal 3 W
R4 Regidrago W
R5 Thorns W
Glad to finally be back on Bolt! Watch out MI!
@kingdrec1out
People who donโt already have their invite shouldnโt be allowed to go to events. Theyโre grinching points from the people who already got their invite.
Dartrix, from SV6a!
C - United Wings 20x
This attack does 20 damage for each Pokรฉmon in your discard pile that has the United Wings attack.
G - Cutting Wind 30
Played to Top 8 of the Twin Knights 1K League Cup! Misplayed and Bricked to lose in cut, but oh well, it happens. Happy to have earned cash from an event for the first time!

@st00ben
Garganacl was fine cus it might legitimately be playable
Blastoise/Venusaur/Lucario/Greninja are actually so fucking stupid to release and it sucks
Even the plain cards like Reshiram or Mewtwo are just so sad to see in the set too
every time i start thinking of playing anything other than dragon glc Pokemon drops a new card that just makes the deck better in every way
and it's bolt too??? like i HAVE to keep playing dragon glc now
Raging Bolt, from SV7!
LF - Lightning Storm
Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokรฉmon. This attack does 30 damage to that Pokรฉmon for each Energy on this Pokรฉmon.
LFC - Dragon Headbutt 130
TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT!
Come check out me vs
@Cristian9032

9-5-1 LL LZ Tina
Game 1: Greninja was prized. Didnโt set up quick enough.
Game 2: Greninja was prized. Didnโt set up quick enough.
Unfortunately we whiffed T64, though apparently it was a bubble so maybe we wouldnโt have made it, who knows. Final post later!
dude okay Iโm actually so pissed why does twitter show me more stuff of a subject iโve clicked โnot interested inโ like my feed is clogged with yugioh despite me clicking not interested every time I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO PLAY NOR DO I WANT TO PLEASE GIVE ME MORE POKEMON CONTENT ๐ญ๐ญ
5-3-1 at Peoria w/ Arven Charizard!!!
Picked up the deck a day before the event. Runs like a dream. I absolutely could have made day 2 if I didnโt do a few misplays- listed below.
Overall, though, this was my best regional finish EVER and I had a blast!
Got 2nd at the Evo Games Pokemon Day League Challenge!
Would have won if I didnโt ID the final round, (won the for fun match somehow) but I IDโd because my hand was awful and they wanted to ID lmao

Game 2: Donked Arceus V with Slither Wing, then got Ionoโd into Boss into another Arceus V
Game 3: Donked Arceus V after a long sequencing puzzle by landing heads catcher to KO, then Primeโd to KO again.

@Derocker714
paldean fates is the best set printed ever like wdym i can get 20 ionos for $10 and 8 squawkabilly exโs for $9
gonna have like every deck ever built irl just cus everything is so cheap now
+10 points by getting 4th out of 4 players at a challenge ๐
tried playing this control list by
@starostamp
and realized halfway through game one i have no clue how to play control
fun tournament though deck is funny
Lapras ex!
(Tera)
W - Power Splash 40x
This attack does 40 damage for each Energy attached to this Pokรฉmon.
WPM- Larimar Rain
Look at the top 20 cards of your deck, and attach any number of Energy you find there to your Pokรฉmon in play. Shuffle the other cards into your deck.
@VicVonGloom
DAY 2
7-2-1 WW Lugia
Game 1: Opp went second, and despite whiffing the T2 knockout on Lugia, I got two prizes before he got any and kept it up.
Game 2: Opp went second and started hot, but lost steam when Iono hit him bad and gift drew nothing.
@RebornIllu
got me some shocks <3
I forgot to post the list OOPS
weakest link is 100% Raihan, even if I used him for game win a few times it just doesnโt feel like he fits in the list.
Manaphy isnโt great but Spiritomb isnโt much better, so iโm unsure about which to use.
Otherwise, fun list, but bricky sometimes
finished 6th (5-1-2) in full heal with
@Tandem_TCG
's palkia/charizard. the deck is actually so awesome, only loss was to some awful bricking in top cut
Ran a BO3 tournament for Post-Rotation for MSU Pokemon Club today!
Gengar was fun but it definitely needs work, itโs a bit too bricky for my liking rn
R1 LL Tusk Mill (could have forced a tie for the set if I saved Iono for two more turns, oops!)
R2 Bye Round
R3 WW Torterra ex
@KovuSnake
Sure! Itโs main usage is for LZB or Gardy, where you can set it up T1 with just Sada + Attach for Magnetic Burst KO SIT Ralts, Mimikyu (helpful instead of having to get/use cornerpon), and Comfey. You can also use the second attack to kill a Cincinno vs Lugia to force odd prizes
@VicVonGloom
@RebornIllu
8-2-1 WW Espathra
Game 1: Very long match, came down to me milling my entire deck to pal pad/concealed for a boss for game. If he did Heroโs Cape then attack with Bannete instead of Espathra w/ Cape, he would have won.
Game 2: Awful brick. He played a cape on cleffa to stall ๐ญ๐ญ
2-1 in
@Derocker714
and 1-2 in
@Mikinout
โs cubes today! Dusknoir/Chandelure pile was super fun but I threw so hard in Mikeโs cube- I drafted Neo Upper over Hyper Aroma and thought Omanyte was a basic ๐๐
Either way I had a ton of fun though! Definitely want to cube more
@Freewer30
I think if it was a stage one then โPrevent all effects of your opponentโs Pokemonโs Abilities done to your benched Pokemonโ would be pretty good
