Thanks for another deck analysis video. I would like to hear other stories like the one about allegedly losing to time in top 32. It is hard to find out about those things especially from some of the earlier years. Congrats on 500 subs!
I find this deck shares a fair amount of similarities with Primal Groudon. They're both effectively two-phased decks where you transition from a stalling strategy into an extremely aggressive one a few turns later. But in this case, Medicham is more proactive than Wobbuffet/Robo Substitute and Banette is less dangerous and requires less effort to setup than Primal Groudon. I think these types of strategies are always cool to see, but like you mentioned, the synergy in transitioning between Medicham and Banette isn't as solid.
Thanks for the video. I liked hearing your thoughts and potential changes to the deck. I especially liked hearing about the 2006 worlds story on why the deck may have lost in the top 32. More of those types memories and/or stories would be really cool to hear. Also, thanks for the bonus list with the Eeveelutions. I also wanted to congratulate you on achieving 500 subscribers as of writing this!
Great video one again, love your content. Could you explain what was the idea behind the medicham banette deck? I mean which matchups were targeted and made better by playing this hybrid rather than the straight version of each? Haven't played 2006 in ages so I might be a bit rusty with the metagame at the time. But back then I felt the deck was trying too much to be clever. Always found banette to be a bit underwhelming. Love the banette/eevee deck however, seems like a lot of fun to play
Generally I agree it was trying to be too clever. Generally idea was to use Medicham to set up KO's and then transition into Banette to just run through the opponent. It's one of those "jack of all trades, but master at none" type of decks.
Hi, i and my friends are playing a custom format (all sets from 2007-2010), could make a video building a deck , or talking about staples about that format? Please

I would check out Gardevoir from 2008/2010...some small tweaks to that and it's pretty dominating deck in that card pool.
@@thelostzonetcg Could you make a discord server?, i think there is people to discuss decks and formats
Very nice video Jay! You're almost to 500! 499 at the time of this comment.
