  • Budget cards in the Pokemon TCG have had an interesting history, on one hand, some of them have been bulk on the other hand though there have been instances of budget cards catching the metagame by surprise and cleaning up! Let's look at the times Budget cards have wrecked the Pokemon TCG!

    I really enjoy playing the pokemon tcg nothing is better then a good pokemon card pack opening if the pokemon cards are worth money its even better. getting into a pokemon card battle is also fun. Of course playing the pokemon tcg is my forte! like how to build a pokemon deck and playing the pokemon tcg online is how I spend most of my evenings. Pokemon tcg tournament are also great and if you even need any help on how to play the pokemon tcg then let me know! Dont forget you can also open pokemon tcg pack online too! Ive never got to open packs with leonhart or randolph but hopefully will soon! Not pokemon vgc pokemon vgc online or pokemon tcg world championships. Building pokemon decks is very fun! watching other deck profiles and deck lists is very helpful

    Trevenant & Dusknoir is such a busted card, it just needs/needed a solid engine to be a powerhouse, but it only saw play in a pre-rotation short format, and even then, Gengar & Mimikyu was the real star of that deck.

      Well, look no further than Gardevoir ex if you need an engine now! Even at the time you had psychic recharge Malamar so it wasn’t completely lost.

    i won my first pokemon tournament playing a zygarde ex deck that i made. fighting fury belt and zygarde having 190 hp made it hard for nightmarch to kill it. I also played against 2 Darkrai decks so that definitely helped😅.

    My favorite deck i made back in the SM era was the Hypno with the ability “Goodnight, Babies”, in combination with Snorlax from Fates Collide with the attack “Toss and Turn”. The deck ran amazing with Fairy Energies.

    Another extremely solid video Burts! Seriously, I like this style of content, and I like the Pokemon TCG, so it's a perfect match. As for my best homemade deck, I'd have to say making a GLC Colorless deck using Super Fang Raticate, paired with Koga's Trap and Hypotoxic lazer, was quite fun!

    • @BurtsPTCG
      @BurtsPTCG  Před rokem +1

      Aha! That does sound pretty gnarly! And appreciate your kind feedback :)

    @PatchedLightning Před rokem +1

    I remember when at the release of Unified Minds, there was a very fringe Breloom that could OHKO PikaRom with a single energy if it was asleep. In my first league challenge, I played this Breloom with Mareep from LOT that could cause instant sleep when active. A very simple deck, but the more simple decks are the funnest ones for me.

    @jhparsons Před rokem +1

    When Brilliant Stars first came out I made what I called Arceus Boombox, featuring Arceus with Rillaboom. I played Flygon V, Zarude V, G Zapdos V, and Sylveon VMAX as my other attackers. The cool thing about the deck was being able to use Flygon V on consecutive turns. Of course that got less relevant as the meta moved away from VMAXs.

    • @BurtsPTCG
      @BurtsPTCG  Před rokem

      Ohh that sounds pretty fun! Flygon was menace!

    @seantaft3853 Před rokem +1

    As a long time Regis player, I always like making Status Effects decks.
    My personal favorite was in the latter part of the Unbroken Bonds era where I would use Koga's Trap, Venomoth (the non-GX one), and Weezing to have constant poison and confusion on the active and taking shots on the bench. No, it wasn't tier-1; but I'll stand by that deck being the biggest combination of fun and frustrating for both myself and my opponent.

    I have a Turbo Lost Zone Regidrago list I've come up with myself - it's possible to burn out of resources with it but if you can speed towards turn 2 Mirage Gates or Dragonite, you're usually in business.

    Hey Burts, loved the video! Just got into Pokémon TCG and stumbled upon your channel to learn the basics, and I’ve been enjoying your out of the box content so much! Love that you strayed away from the meta from time to time and analysed ways other ways for cards to shine.
    Got gifted my first ever pack of Pokémon cards (even did a pack opening video on my channel), so I don’t currently have a pet deck to share with you now, but maybe sometime down the line when I have my own deck!
    Keep it up, great content as always!

    Back in around 2014 I made a Wailord ex stall deck that aimed to win by people choosing not to play against it and walking. Wasn't competitive at all but I played it at the UK nationals (I think 2014?) and stalled out 0-0-7, earning it the name of the James Bond Wailord. (Agent Wailord). It was a one-tournament only vibe but I've started playing GLC recently and some people in the UK still remember it haha

    • @BurtsPTCG

      Haha no way! Sounds like a right laugh!

    Favorite pet deck is Baby Blowns. I had been using it when it first released in Unbroken Bonds and then was really happy to see it eventually surpass old Blown as the premier clown cake pop alien thingy deck

    Back when tapu koko gx came out, I liked his ability that it promotes it self kinda like zoroark's stand in ability. I combine Koko with Hypno's Good Night babys ability and surprisingly had Good synergy and consistency.

    Rolled with an awkward but fun Boltund VMAX deck at some locals when I first started playing since those were some of the only cards I had. Never won much but I had a blast playing it!

    I remember playing Raikou Eelektrik in Expanded at one point, I used a code card from a theme deck I got when I was a kid, and filled the rest of my deck with whatever cards I had in PTCGO. Fun times

  • @astrotcg5464
    @astrotcg5464 Před rokem

    My original favorite deck was ZoroBox which still holds a place in my heart, but I really love Arceus/Zeraora VSTAR which I came up with a month ago. Since then, LittleDarkFury made a video about it, which was super cool making a deck that a content creator used in a video after I had thought of it. Thanks for the great content, as always!

    • @astrotcg5464
      @astrotcg5464 Před rokem

    I made a Arceus VStar Rayquaza VMax Flaaffy deck and played it towards the last couple sets of Sword and Shield. I teched in the Jolteon with Memory Capsule for no water abilities as well as Flying Pikachu so that basic Pokémon wouldn’t hurt me. Finally, I would have Arceus VStar to search for any two cards and Rayquaza VMax would hit for insane amount of damage. It’s fair to say I got 1st place and top 4 at my locals a couple of times because of this deck. I love Rayquaza 🙏

    New to the game, love the content. Since I am new I have no pet decks, just have been jamming Chien-Pao! Came from MTG, mainly the modern format, and love the gameplay and options in Pokemon so much more. Feeling like you use your whole deck to win is awesome, MTG just feels like if you don't draw your sideboard cards in game 2/3 you insta lose. Pokemon feels far from that, so many search effects that help you craft the game and make it fun!

    Back in the sun and moon days I made a togedemaru deck (from sun and moon base) that did 3o damage for each lightning energy discarded. I paired it with both elektrik from the black and white era for dynamotor acceleration and magnezone form forbidden light to accelerate energys from the hand. I also played the victini card from the black and white era that let me reflip coins so I could use it's defense curl attack (flip coin if head it's immune to damage for the next turn) and stall while I got my engine set up. Was a very niche deck that I could've never played at a tournament but it was the first true deck with a strategy that I built from cards lying in my house and I'm proud of it.

    I did not see the trevnoir / calyrex Vmax you explained in this video once 😂 I rather saw a good amount of plat of it with unb mismagius, beast ring and tag switch to attack second turn, or even first if you drew all you needed.
    For my pet deck, I had a lot of fun playing Cramorant Vmax/Porygon-Z. It was such a meme, flipping 10 coins every game. Playing it was such a blast every time lol

    • @BurtsPTCG

    Last rotation (pre LOR) I played Arc Umbreon/Gengar on the ladder. I really didn't like Mew if you couldn't guess.
    I failed to preserve the decklist through migration into SVI and wish I did. It wasn't the strongest deck, but I enjoyed that deck so much.

    I made a Samurott and Blastoise deck. I play friendlies, with a group of friends and we don’t feel like staying super meta so we banned all tag teams, ex, Vstar, gx, etc. this combo was so good we had to allow those cards for other deck otherwise it was nearly unbeatable

    It's not legal anymore, but i really liked having CorsolaV, (, maybe it was Cursola), arctozolt, and Old Cemetery. It was hard to pull off, but if someone played a single energy from their hand with all the if those active, they would take 70 damage per energy. With an added rocky helmet along with qwilfish... It was fun seeing then knock themselves out

    When Lost Origin released, I got my hands on a 0 energy hisuian arcanine deck, and its been my go-to meme deck since. I even went 4-1 with it at locals once (placed 4th due to resistance sadly). Funnily enough, the first time I brought it to a local event, I ran into the mirror match!
    I know its nowhere near being the best deck in a format full of Sableye and Gren, but GOD its super satisfying dumping your hand and getting a KO for 0 energy.

    With Paldea Evolved, I made a Skeledirge deck that utilizes the Slowbro's ability that moves damage counters. I put 2 Emergency Jelly toolcards and Radiant Tsareena. Not top tier by any means, but the healing combos are neat and it works pretty good most of the time.

    Double Palkia. On Expanded, playing Palkia VSTAR and Palkia GX. Sometimes, 2 extra turns to end the game, with a lot of Metal Pokémon support. Was not the best deck, but pretty fun.

    My favorite pet deck was Urshifu inteleon radiant charizard in the post 2022 worlds format. No one was playing it (besides tord probably) and I came up with my own list and it could do a lot of amazing combos and execute powerful strategies. Unfortunately due to the lack of efficient dark type attacks I was too scared to take it to any irl tournaments with almost no game plan into mew. However it still took me 5-0-1 into a top 8 of an online tournament and was very fun to play.

    my favorite deck that I made myself is my mimikyu deck. I use mimikyu VMAX, worst gift mimikyu (does 10 damage for each damage counter on all of my opponent's pokemon), and mimikyu from paldea evolved. I use buddy catch gallade to get acerola's premonition and since I already have ralts and kirlia, I use Gardevoir ex and zacian V as backup. I also recently added bannete ex for item lock to increase the draw from acerola and disrupt my opponent

    My favorite "pet" deck was a budget deck I built based around the Lost Thunder Shedinja and Ninjask a few years ago. Thanks to Ninjask's "Molting" ability, you could place a Shedinja on your bench as if it was a basic Pokémon. Then, using Shedinja's "Vessel of Life" ability, you could attach the Shedinja to your Ninjask (as if it was an Item card) to deny your opponent from drawing any prize cards. To cap it off, Ninjask could do up to 80 damage for just one energy and "Victory Star" Victini could increase consistency. With how fast this deck got rolling it was great for attacking early game basics that haven't had the chance to evolve into a GX yet.
    The deck has its flaws but I took it to a local tournament while it was legal and preformed pretty well! I don't think many other people were using the combo so I also had the element of surprise to back me up.

    Mine was Dark-Fire mashup at release of Flash Fire. Using Victini EX to accelerate Fire Energy onto Pyroar from the same set, as well as to Outrage Reshiram as a backup attacker. The Dark part was in the form of baby Yveltal using Oblivion Wing to attach Darkness Energy to my mons in order to take advantage of Darkrai EX Dark Cloak ability in order to pivot between attackers. Cards like Muscle Band, Blacksmith, Lysandre and VS Seeker ironed out a lot of the deck's issues and this wonderful pile somehow won me a couple League tournaments back when I got into the TCG.

Then, I’d move all the energies onto Hisuian Arcanine V with its ability, allowing it to do big damage and tank hits with the help of Bravery Charm and Lake Acuity, the next turn, I’d just put on other one on bench, move the enrgies with its ability, and then use Penny to bounce it. I originally brainstormed some ideas with it, but couldn’t really make it consistent, but I got the idea to run Penny and more copies of Lucario from a video, allowing me to fully maximize it.
