"RayRay makes Manny come out"- A look at ManectricEX/Garbodor for the upcoming format!!!

     Hello fellow Pokemon players! Evan here and I am going to talk about how ManectricEX/Garbodor  will have a place in this upcoming format.

Why it could See Success

                               Emerald Break + ShayminEX + Altaria + Skyfield = An over-hyped deck.

     You hit the Mega RayquazaEX for weakness and Garbodor shuts off Altaria's ability. They will most likely have a spirit link on the Mega RayquazaEX and if not, all you need to do is attach a Head Ringer to it. 

     The only problem with the deck is that if you are put in a mirror match, it's all about who gets the most Head Ringers on the opposing Pokemon, who gets the first attack, heck even WHO GOES FIRST could decide the game.  BUT you could run some techs for the mirror.

     All in all, I think that ManectricEX/Garbodor will definitely see some success.

The Deck itself

                                                      Assault Laser makes this card viable.

     Now that I have gone through on why I think it will see success, I will show you guys my list:

Pokemon-8                           Trainers-44                            Energy-8

4 ManectricEX PHF 23       4 Professor Juniper                8 Lightning

2 Trubbish LTR 67              1 Lysandre

2 Garbodor LTR 68             1 Lysandre's Trump Card

                                             2 Random Receiver

                                             4 VS Seeker

                                             4 Roller Skates

                                             4 Acro Bike

                                             3 Bicycle

                                             4 Crushing Hammer

                                             4 Hypnotoxic Laser

                                             4 Head Ringer

                                             3 Muscle Band

                                             2 Float Stone

                                             1 Computer Search

                                             3 Virbank City Gym

     The list itself is pretty consistent. But you may be wondering "Where's the Ultra Ball?" I don't run any because this deck really burns through itself. The only problem with this deck is that the ONLY search card in the deck is a Computer search so you have to be careful on how many resources you discard. Here are my card counts and reasons:

4 ManectricEX, 2 Trubbish, 2 Garbodor

     All you really need is the amount above. Nothing really big about this.

4 Professor Juniper, 1 Lysandre, 1 Lysandre's Trump Card, 2 Random Receiver, 4 VS Seeker

     I chose to take out a Random Receiver for a Lysandre just because they might switch a Mega RayquazaEX out and you need to KO it.

4 Roller Skates, 4 Acro Bike, 3 Bicycle

     This really is the draw power of this deck. Since you shut off abilities you don't wan't to run ShyminEX. 

4 Crushing Hammer, 4 Head Ringer

     This is to 1. help against the mirror. 2. Definitely helps with the Mega RayquazaEX match-up by getting rid of their Energies and making the pay 1 more.

     Well I hope that this article helped you in some way! Thanks for Reading!!!!!!
