@@TheWillrocks51if u r good at smth dont do it for free...thats what any responsible adult would say regarding his experience in anything that required lots of his time.....

I came from mtg and this kind of guides are EXPENSIVE. Is incredible having a guide so detailed like this one open for everyone on YT. Thank you both for the content!
For the Miraidon matchup, even 4 prizes behind you still have a chance if you can setup a Gardevoir and continously Iono/Stamp them to reduce the chances of Boss. Iono + Catcher to take 2 prizes on the Mew with Gardy, take the hit from Iron Hands then Iono again and KO it with Drifbloon, Catcher/Boss/Scream Tail on the Skawkabilly for the last 2 Prizes.
James u say in minute 43:44 that u can scream tail the ogerpon but, can u do that even with its tera ability? probably i misunderstood what u tried to say
I'm not sure cause they'll probably not put it down before gusting a ralts, and even if they do, if you attack with an energy on klefki, then fluttermane becomes a target. Klefki and flutter essentially share 1 energy and that's what makes your board good
You might be able to make it work if you joust with the second dark energy on klefki, but you would need to do it after using turo's on ralts(because they will always try to trap that) and at that point I would be scared that they are able to cyllene the fan, but if you're losing unless you can completely remove the fan without it impacting the game it actually seems right. Good idea!
@jamesctcg alright sounds good this is the list I'm rocking ill see which one I like the most Pokémon: 17 4 Ralts ASR 60 4 Kirlia SIT 68 2 Gardevoir ex PAF 29 2 Munkidori TWM 95 2 Flutter Mane TEF 78 1 Drifloon SVI 89 1 Scream Tail PAR 86 1 Cresselia LOR 74 Trainer: 32 4 Arven OBF 186 4 Iono PAF 80 1 Boss's Orders PAL 172 1 Professor Turo's Scenario PAR 171 4 Buddy-Buddy Poffin TEF 144 2 Earthen Vessel PAR 163 2 Ultra Ball PAF 91 2 Nest Ball PAF 84 2 Super Rod PAL 188 2 Counter Catcher PAR 160 2 Bravery Charm PAL 173 2 Technical Machine: Evolution PAR 178 1 Unfair Stamp TWM 165 1 Enhanced Hammer TWM 148 1 Hisuian Heavy Ball ASR 146 1 Artazon PAF 76 Energy: 10 7 Psychic Energy SVE 5 3 Darkness Energy SVE 7
I find taking out pidgeot EX early game very difficult as gardevoir. What is your best bet? Screamtail for 160 and then superrod and do it again? Early game drifloon charm and 5 energy is a lot to expect. Thoughts? Anyone deal with this?
@Baysoni_ you set up early set up your board state and then use munkidori the turn before u ko pigeot make sure they don't bench another pidgey with cresscila early then the turn your going to ko pigeot use iono to make their hand smaller
Keep knockouting roaring moons, till you opponent will have thin deck, monitor a number of energies in you opponent discard pile and since your oppenent will have 3 or 2 price cards then play ionos and try to lock greninja and keep sniping with scream tail (this is a good strategy for me)

Helpful vid, annoying how beating Zard feels like "kill the supports and hope that they don't kill your gardevoir" though, it's infuriating how that deck seems to get buffed with every set, especially now that Fezandipiti and Dusknoir exist Because now I have to panic about which support to kill first, because I'm either trying to stop their deck search, draw power or stopping them from putting 130 counters on me and if I stop one then the other screws me over anyway It's like fighting a hydra at this point, sure you can cut off one head but two more grow in its place and also you are being burning darkness'd repeatedly Such an annoying deck, and so fucking popular online too... If you can give any tips about how to beat Zard post-masquerade, please let me know, because I'm really struggling to do anything against it It's just really anger-inducing because there's so many matches where it feels like checkmate at my opening hand - either I set up before them or they set up before me and it's curtains from there Other than that, loved every minute, I love seeing this because I'm still pretty fresh to the TCG and some matchups just annoy me to no end lol
It's not that easy to play perfectly on stream in front of thousands of people. This guy still made finals out of over 2600 players and he definitely played very well overall throughout the tournament.

How can this content be free
Because there is hope in this World
Because some people aren’t scumbags who charge $70 for a 15 minute master class.
Hopefully for the love of the game. Stay positive out there!

quite literally no one in the game doing it like james
Really enjoy these videos. I learn so much.
I’m a beginner of PTCG and the first League deck I bought was exactly Gardevoir deck! Thank you for the guide! ❤
I really like the editing / visual of this interview.
Great video James. Really appreciate the content.

as a newbie in ptcg, this has helped me immensely in playing gardevoir ex!
insane content, congratz for both!
All hail munkiGODi 🙇. Great video as always
Great content creator by far
Appreciate this as a new player
Thank you very much for sharing!
Thank you bro for this free content btw im gonna be the next pokemon world champ ill shout you out i'll pay you in exposure
I'll take it
Goat at vids
Good vid.
James u say in minute 43:44 that u can scream tail the ogerpon but, can u do that even with its tera ability? probably i misunderstood what u tried to say
scream tail the archeops while ogerpon is active, removes essentially all effectiveness of the ogerpon.
Hey, nice guide! Was wondering is stamp or aroma optimal in your opinion?
What sim are they using to play at 25:40 ish?
pvp-tabletop-27e7a.ondigitalocean.app/
what's the name of the simulator at 25:35
i also need to know D:
pvp-tabletop-27e7a.ondigitalocean.app/ (sorry its a bit late lol)
Is it ever worth using klefki's joust to discard handheld fan in the blocklax matchup?
I'm not sure cause they'll probably not put it down before gusting a ralts, and even if they do, if you attack with an energy on klefki, then fluttermane becomes a target. Klefki and flutter essentially share 1 energy and that's what makes your board good

Good idea!

Munkidori the pigeot early on then attack it for a ko then iono
@@uriahbueno iono before the ko?
@Baysoni_ you set up early set up your board state and then use munkidori the turn before u ko pigeot make sure they don't bench another pidgey with cresscila early then the turn your going to ko pigeot use iono to make their hand smaller
Is there a copy/paste of his decklist somewhere. I want it so I can use it on TCG Live.

Any thoughts please on the hard ancient box matchup?

What program was that with the cards and stuff?

Gardevoir got so complex haha i used to play the OG one and just had to wack with zacian
I used Gardevoir a while back swinging hard with mega Gardevoir

Why does he not play mimikyu ex its a super good card againt miraidon and other
just too weak overall, drif better
sir just thanks
Talk me out of putting Night Stretcher in this deck.
Do you have an English version of this channel?
nope
🇨🇵
My guy misplayed and lost, he cant be the person telling us how to play it💀🤦🏻
You're acting like you've never misplayed and have won a major event. Everyone makes mistakes.
how to lose a guaranteed win
It's not that easy to play perfectly on stream in front of thousands of people. This guy still made finals out of over 2600 players and he definitely played very well overall throughout the tournament.
It's easy to see those mistakes as a spectator in hindsight. Why don't you top an IC and show everyone how easy it is?
@pokemoncatcher2566 Who are you again?
Bro is trying to shit on a multi tourney champion lmao
@Goobrino just stating the truth about the game bro pipe down
