- The upcoming 2024 rotation in the Pokemon Trading Card Game may impact which pre-made deck you purchase. Make sure to understand how rotation impacts all pre-made decks so you can get the right one for you!
*Now including corrections for Deluxe Battle Decks - Hry
This video just saved this n00b a buck! Was going to try a new deck and had no idea. Thank you so much for the detailed info! I’m keeping a notebook and taking all the notes.
Thanks for covering these decks and even re-releasing this video with some pretty minor updates that could have probably been left. You give great info 👍
I didn’t want anyone to be misled by my previously-inaccurate video, especially since this will be viewed by others for months to come.
I purchased a couple of these that are out of rotation few months ago before I understood the game 😜
I literally bought the Mew league deck, finally started winning games, now I realised it’s being rotated 😭
As a beginner wanting to play more tcg this info is very helpful
Good work mate. It dawned on me that peony and peak were leaving us just as I've perfected my deck 😅
Thank you for this very helpful video.
Thanks for watching!
Which deck should i buy
I think Marnie’s Pride might work to cover Melony in terms of energy, and you could also use Nemona and Trekking Shoes for draw power.
I would still purchase some of the decks that are going to vanishjust for collection purposes and still worthy to play them with friends as I am doing right now. I am still far from competition. Great video thank you.
Thanks
Trying to understand which booster packs / etbs would be rotation safe?
Everything from Brilliant Stars onward will survive this rotation.
hopefully due to all of these decks rotating a giritina lost zone deck could be possible but that may not be the case due to scarlet and violet being the focus
The window for V-based pre-made decks is almost certainly closed at this point, especially if we follow past precedent with how Pokemon transitioned from Sun & Moon to Sword & Shield.
Is there a website that shows what decks are safe ?
As far as I know, there isn’t.
While Pokemon tries their best to make these decks as future-proof as possible, cards will eventually rotate over time and rotation hits every deck differently. When the 2024 rotation hit, the Palkia VSTAR deck lost a few cards but it wasn’t a dealbreaker. Meanwhile, when Ice Rider hit the 2023 rotation, the deck essentially died because the Shady Dealings engine of cards rotated out.
I try to make videos close to rotation time like this one to give people an update on how each deck currently in market will be impacted. I’d imagine I’ll make the next one in spring 2025.
Hopefully alakazam ex gets a league battle deck
Is gardevior ex deck safe ? Im looking into buying
Gardevoir itself won’t rotate for 2 more years and the deck as a whole won’t see anything rotate until spring 2025. Furthermore, Gardevoir is arguably the best deck in the game right now. Get in there!
@@InThirdPerson would the league battle deck be a good choice ? I'm brand new into this and want to play competitive with some friends/irl events around my area :) I just have to upgrade it with a few cards if I buy the battle league deck ?
If you’re willing to go through the effort of buying all 60 cards individually, you could theoretically just buy all the cards for a fully-upgraded Gardevoir expansion deck.
limitlesstcg.com/decks/list/11921
For example, Limitless has links to buy all of the cards from TCG Player.
However, if that’s not feasible for you for whatever reason (it’s not for me as I live outside of the US), the League Battle Deck is a great foundation to start from.
@InThirdPerson my fiance and I both decided to just buy the battle deck and the ninetales deck box we got a deal from our local store for 20 bucks for both !!!! But I guess there's other sets I want to try and play but I'm worried they'll be out of rotation, would I be able to tell u what sets I'm into maybe you can help me out ? You're videos are great and interesting I'm glad I found them cause of you I want to get into tcg! I only collected the cards, I don't know there moves or anything 😭😂 I have tons to learn🙆♀️
@InThirdPerson thank you so much for the website ! We are gonna use this to upgrade to the cards we need, this is gonna help me.learn the game with the current cards and once I understand it more, then I'll use the upgrade cards to see how I do, you're the best! Thank you
isn't this a repost?
I fixed the parts where I misspoke on the Deluxe Battle Decks as noted in the intro. This video will be online forever and I didn’t want anyone to regret their purchase because I misled them with inaccurate information.
BRUH i am getting all calyrex deck and palkia vstar X(
Unfortunately both Calyrex aren’t legal anymore for Standard format play on Live and are rotating on April 5th for in-person play. You can still use them in Expanded, but there’s no competitive support behind Expanded these days.
Palkia is still Standard legal for another year and is still used in a number of competitive archetypes, including Gholdengo, Chien-Pao, and Raging Bolt among others.
