TCG players get salty no matter what deck you play. Doesn't matter if its Pokémon, yu-gi-oh or MTG someone will find some reason why your deck is unfair and unfun
No deck in this game is currently unfair and the only unfun deck I've went against is a Snorlax, hypno, dugtrio deck the match lasted 30 turns and I wanted to smash my phone lol
@@LotusAsakurait’s just like dbfz season 1 Bardock man. You like the character / how they play, play them, and get flamed for “playing the meta”, which may be how u have the most fun u know?
its my main deck. dragonite/wiggly ex combo is tough. the new jigglypuff is gonna be able to sleep as well. or you can run hypno, weezing, or frosmoth. we eatin good over here fam lol.
@@tanmantito I’ve just been running it with electrode cause of the retreat cost and tentocruel for poison and water energy. There’s some room for improvement but it’s been getting results.
5:02 obviously play what you want dog it’s all about having fun, but if you was asking seriously, typically card game Etiquette is when you’re playing with your friends you match the tier of deck they’re playing for a match. For example S tier pikachu and mewtwo can play against each other, A tier decks like charizard starmie marowak venasaur, b tier like blastoise or wheezing could play together. And you can play like one tier off like S vs A but if people are playing. Rogue tier or off meta you typically match that, so when they be on some off meta stuff like machamp, gengar, wiggltuff etc those are the ones people will get mad about if you bring a high tier deck to face it. Cuz to a lot of people it’s the equivalent of playing a friend in sparking zero for the channel and they tell you they’re about to pick chiaotzu and you pick gogeta ssj4 I enjoy the content non the less and will watch any video cuz I just like watching you face the homies but just wanted to offer an answer incase you were genuinely curious why people were so pressed. But at the end people are gonna complain no matter what
To be fair you’d be genuinely shocked to see how viable mew and jiraichi cards are. If this game will go anything like the actual TCG trust me jiraichi and mew WILL get some good cards but they won’t be attackers. There’s always super heavy support pokemon that sit on the bench and draw cards or prevent bench snipe.
That first match went by so quick I could practically hear the Pokemon Stadium announcer line for when someone gets a one-shot on the first turn in my head. *"Woah! Taken down on the word Go!"*
My experience with the meta is it goes like this, psychic-electric-water-marowak-everything else. Been having a lot of success with alakazam with jinx and meowth, though it can brick like anything else, oh and steel is fun, really quick to set up a bid harp with some farfetch’s and doesn’t rely on a bench like pikachu,
Honestly suprised no one is talking about venosauar ex. Run it with liligant and i destroy pickachu and mewtwo and can beat zard sometimes depending on how quick i can get to veno. The healing and erika plus potions just lets veno 2 shot every ex
5:13 you are allowed to play kingler and golduck but if you win everyone wil hate you just ignore it bro them cards are in the game to be played as if people are gonna pick shit cards themselves
Fun video, LA! I wouldn't give the complainers much weight. Like you said, there's only so many cards right now. Play what you want. I'm currently running 3 decks: Blastoise Ex, Pickachu Ex, and Nidos, and enjoy them. Currently working toward either a Charizard Ex deck or this poison deck I've an idea for after playing against it(and grabbing Tentacruel). And yeah, Misty is an experience. Funnily, I've OTK'd someone with an Articuno and Misty, since they had no bench. Granted, it happened to me too. I want those sleeves! Or the coin. But damn is that price steep. Also, can anyone tell me where Afro got that Arti, Molt, and Zap emblem? Never seen that one before.
Definitely play whatever deck you want but i do suggest giving all decks you can think of a try and just have fun with the game ive been playing a tentacruel Poli wraith deck and destroying everyone except Pikachu
The way I like to view the two decks between pikachu and mewtwo is basically they’re both the best. It comes down to who gets what first cause one will kill you turn two before you set up and the other becomes fucking exodia on turn 4-6. If mewtwo gets going it’s completely unstoppable Whereas with pikachu if you get pikachu turn 1/2 you pretty much have game as well considering pokeballs, oaks, and the mass amount of normal pokemon you run So it legit comes down to did you pull 1-2 mewtwos and/or ralts by turn 3? Did you get pikachu going before they got mewtwo with two energy?
I just built just today actually a Genger GX deck on the game and the cool part about it is that my gang got eliminates all support that my opponent uses so Intel gang goes off the field of course it comes out of risk cause if gang guy gets knocked out the opponent gang two points, but that deck of mine’s been cooking
you can play whatever decks you want, it's just funny, the fact that you're basically playing ssj4 gogeta and super vegito against the homies, ya know? 😂
Lotus would you consider making a video of you playing viewers? I played against you randomly in fighterz I would love a crack at playing you in pokemon pocket
i played mtg and yu gi oh maybe i should give it a try my homies got so into it they have real life cards that cost shit ton of money now, TIME TO COLLECT THEM ALL
The only deck people aren't gonna be salty at you for playing is like a pidgeot deck lol. a lot of these decks are pretty feast or faminine so people won't really like it regardless.
It's mostly cause people tired of seeing the 3 top tier meta decks right now. The no ex format has taken off a bit and people finding that more interesting with the variety and longer drawn out games.
Full stop as primarily a water deck main (I run articuno greninja) Mewtwo easily is the best deck cause dude tanky as hell with 150 hp and with gardevoir constantly supplying energy Mewtwo can one shot every card in the game except for the Ex starter trio and those 3 take way too long to setup so they are not reliable answers pikachu can pop out with crazy damage fairly quickly but pikachu is at bare minimum far easier to knock out before getting out of control which when the water deck is sayin that I feel like that’s gotta mean something
There's no way people are getting on you about what cards you're playing... Why are you all so controlling on the internet, My goodness. Let people play what they want If you can't handle it, go away.
Well idc what deck you play I just find it lame how people just spam meta decks me personally I like to be creative and not use the same thing everyone is using that’s just boring to me.. idc about losing just so I can spam meta
Nobody out pay-to-winning afro
19:57 Lotus played mercy on Afro cause all he needed was put that Water energy on Dragonair and match was over
Dawg I was just screamin at my phone "what are youuu doinng" 😭😭
Deadassss😭😭
TCG players get salty no matter what deck you play. Doesn't matter if its Pokémon, yu-gi-oh or MTG someone will find some reason why your deck is unfair and unfun
Gotta just play whatever you like and block out the noise haha.
Real shit, right here. I admit some things can be annoying but man, play what you want as long as you find it fun that's all that matters.
No deck in this game is currently unfair and the only unfun deck I've went against is a Snorlax, hypno, dugtrio deck the match lasted 30 turns and I wanted to smash my phone lol
Let them be salty that shouldn’t stop you from enjoying the game.
@@LotusAsakurait’s just like dbfz season 1 Bardock man. You like the character / how they play, play them, and get flamed for “playing the meta”, which may be how u have the most fun u know?
the fact that Lotus be inviting his friends over to body them is mad wild lol.
I love that you’re playing the Dragonite deck. I feel like nobody’s talked about how crazy that damage is
I just got one from wonderpick. I just need a Dragonair.
Alakazam can counter it pretty hard in the late game, especially of paired with a frosmoth or hypno.
@@Bmafu Those are the only decks I’ve run to where I struggle with. Sleep status throws off the gameplan, but I rarely run into those

sleeping on dragonite
2:48 Legendary moment, I was so hyped to see him follow through 😭
Afro man PLEASE make some Pocket content!
Just do whatever you want brother, let em cry.
34:14 bad sabrina play, should’ve just killed charizard

Imagine a Jirachi with the active ability wish to heal a certain amount of DMG to a pokemon said amount of turns
Ayo imagine losing to a crocheted Electrode....couldn't be me 😂
Someone needs to show the shenanigans that is Dragonite in Pocket
That first match went by so quick I could practically hear the Pokemon Stadium announcer line for when someone gets a one-shot on the first turn in my head. *"Woah! Taken down on the word Go!"*
The One Piece laughs are killing meee😂
I’m loving these Pokemon videos
27:16 the foreshadowing is actually insane
My experience with the meta is it goes like this, psychic-electric-water-marowak-everything else.
Been having a lot of success with alakazam with jinx and meowth, though it can brick like anything else, oh and steel is fun, really quick to set up a bid harp with some farfetch’s and doesn’t rely on a bench like pikachu,
you should try a Marowak + Pigeot Deck it really slaps
This is relaxing and fun. It brings back memories of elementary school.
Can't wait for the Mega inclusion and GX cards
Love the ui!!! U really did it! Le goat
Nah Afro being lvl 43 is diabolical 😂
I wouldn’t mind a tekken tournament with the homies
The coin flips be really testing my patience in this game fr
Play the Nido deck - then you’ll be legit lol
Honestly suprised no one is talking about venosauar ex. Run it with liligant and i destroy pickachu and mewtwo and can beat zard sometimes depending on how quick i can get to veno. The healing and erika plus potions just lets veno 2 shot every ex
27:50 knocked out by a hackie sack
The immediate quit out I felt that lmao
Afro doesn't know he needs pokemon in his pokemon deck
5:13 you are allowed to play kingler and golduck but if you win everyone wil hate you just ignore it bro them cards are in the game to be played as if people are gonna pick shit cards themselves
Pikachu deck is stronger straight up due to it being significantly faster to get going.
Fun video, LA! I wouldn't give the complainers much weight. Like you said, there's only so many cards right now. Play what you want.

May be a little weird but I want more of the legendary birds. They are some of the first legendary Pokémon I caught as a kid on Pokémon X

Did you get pikachu going before they got mewtwo with two energy?
36:04 you should have put the energy on pika instead of vol the turn prior to have 2 energy on pika this turn, which means youd kill charizard
2:48 Hold up-
Need more Gen 2 cards added so I can play a Totodile/Feraligtr deck 🐊💦 I gotta learn how to play I’ve been just opening free packs
I just built just today actually a Genger GX deck on the game and the cool part about it is that my gang got eliminates all support that my opponent uses so Intel gang goes off the field of course it comes out of risk cause if gang guy gets knocked out the opponent gang two points, but that deck of mine’s been cooking
Thanks to you I started playing this game and it's not bad 😁
you can play whatever decks you want, it's just funny, the fact that you're basically playing ssj4 gogeta and super vegito against the homies, ya know? 😂
Ngl the most hype card I'm waiting for is infernape
Lotus would you consider making a video of you playing viewers? I played against you randomly in fighterz I would love a crack at playing you in pokemon pocket
20:15 you could have won right there lotus by just attacking the jynx bruh........
Fastest I've ever clicked on a video
What is Lotus and everyone else using to play this on PC?
Players hate every deck that isn’t theirs, and it’s just another example of everyone valuing winning over having fun
I dolphined 30-50 bucks, and got the special sleeeves and field 😅 was lucky with the duplicate immersives
i played mtg and yu gi oh maybe i should give it a try my homies got so into it they have real life cards that cost shit ton of money now, TIME TO COLLECT THEM ALL
Game is more fun when you play your friends with rules... Like no double trainers no ex and at least 2 ebergy types
i love this game bro😊
Ggs Lotus! Btw, do you have a full friends list? Im trying to get some more Wonder Trades lol
Lotus v afro immediate like hands down
I hope ranked comes out for this game with a reward system too🙏🏾 also tcg players are all babies let them cry bruh
9 tails and flareon deck is the best in the game I beat every player I play with pikachu or mewtwo
I wonder how lotus would like showdown
I want myself a shiny interactive art Gyarados for Gen two packs
The only deck people aren't gonna be salty at you for playing is like a pidgeot deck lol. a lot of these decks are pretty feast or faminine so people won't really like it regardless.
Just a thought maybe you could play against @mr natindo
Nvm I meant @Vintendo
Aye Pokemon pocket 🔥🔥🔥
I need a Rayquaza Card asap
I think mewtwo is slightly better just because if you and your opponent both have equal luck I think mewtwo just always wins
Once a ranked mode comes out yknow Lotus gonna go crazy like always
It's mostly cause people tired of seeing the 3 top tier meta decks right now. The no ex format has taken off a bit and people finding that more interesting with the variety and longer drawn out games.
do they have Typhlosion in this that’s my favorite Pokemon
Not yet
The sleep deck is the most annoying decke ver lol.
Was playing my girlfriend and she hit heads everytime!
Not bro really coulda ended Afro with Dragonair and made him suffer anyway
Card players are always salty as hell. Always play what you want, meta or not.
I can’t tell if it’s for the content or he just be misplaying cus why we need three on frogadier instead of attacking with frog or starmie
man play the deck you like bro people taking a game with no ranked too serious
Instant click
Full stop as primarily a water deck main (I run articuno greninja) Mewtwo easily is the best deck cause dude tanky as hell with 150 hp and with gardevoir constantly supplying energy Mewtwo can one shot every card in the game except for the Ex starter trio and those 3 take way too long to setup so they are not reliable answers pikachu can pop out with crazy damage fairly quickly but pikachu is at bare minimum far easier to knock out before getting out of control which when the water deck is sayin that I feel like that’s gotta mean something
Diamond and pearl is better
It's fun game but boring to watch it's quick normally over by turn 4-6
There's no way people are getting on you about what cards you're playing... Why are you all so controlling on the internet, My goodness. Let people play what they want If you can't handle it, go away.
Misty is garbage. I love playing misty decks or moltrez decks. Keep relying on those coin flips🤣
the fact was that laugh, cringey ass shit.
Damn, that's some really arena league level hate right there
Bro, this is not One Piece TCG, Finna unsub.
*joking*
Cringe
@@mrflyingraijin5231 I'm not apologizing.
