Great video! Gameplay was helpful! Thanks!

[@Evans_Pokestop]

Thanks for watching!

Literally started playing Live three days ago and already Arceus with Raging Bolt deck. It's just so easy to pick it up as beginners. I didn't even know why we put Slither Wing into the deck until I see your video now. Would just concede if did not knock out Terapagos in time with my Raging Bolt.

[@Evans_Pokestop]

@@haoli4164 it’s a great deck! Best of luck knocking out all terapagos from here on out 🫡

[@haoli4164]

@@Evans_Pokestop Any other decks that you recommend?

[@Evans_Pokestop]

@@haoli4164 I'm a huge fan of dragapult so any deck that uses it. I also want to check on archaludon because it seems pretty straightforward and is winning in some Japanese leagues.

Hey man just got live todsy. How the HELL did you get enough to get the bolt
Cards and deck????? I literally only have 400 credits and crystals

[@Evans_Pokestop]

@ the battle pass! Use one of the pre-made decks and start playing some games to complete the daily challenges in the battle pass. (There’s a pretty good charizard-pidgeot deck I believe) Youll get to open packs from the battle pass and duplicates will be converted to credits after you have 4 of each card. You can use those credits to exchange for cards in the deck builder. It’s a little annoying in the beginning but over time you’ll get more than you need

[@leifthrasir999]

Awesome video! Thank you for your take on Raging Bolt man! I personally prefer to add something else instead of Briar. Another pokemon I like to use sometimes is Sandy Shocks, yes it doesnt do as much damage as SW but it helped me a lot of times with its cheaper attack cost

[@Evans_Pokestop]

Thanks for watching! I really appreciate all your interaction with the channel haha. That’s a good idea though I could see a use for sandy shocks since it still does enough to get rid of a mimikyu or something small without needing two energy

[@mauriziocinicolo]

Hello, great content!, in game 1 you can 1HKO Pikachu with slitherwing 120x2 bc of weakness, you deal 240 damage + burned, Pika's hability gets him to 10hp, them in the opponents turn he get's KO'd with the burn condition. Cheers!!

[@Evans_Pokestop]

Good call, I completely ignored the burn effect throughout the video!

[@Heckthorr13]

I know I come late to comment xD but that deck would not look bad two copies of cripin

[@Evans_Pokestop]

@@Heckthorr13 it’s never too late! And you’re right, I always forget about Crispin haha

[@Heckthorr13]

@Evans_Pokestop I said about Crispin since I to the deck edited it and managed to put 3 Crispin and the truth is that it is a great change that I noticed and of course it was strange that the videos that I have seen of the deck did not take it.

[@nicolaikaare-skau7138]

Pretty new to the tcg part of pokemon, but wandering why you use bravery charm instead of ancient booster energy capsule?

[@Evans_Pokestop]

I went with bravery charm in this case so it could be used on other basic cards like ogerpon or squakabilly. I think ancient booster capsule gives more HP but that didn’t seem like enough of a trade off if I couldn’t use it on all the pokemon.

[@yjseong]

Hi would like your thoughts on having latias ex instead of switch carts.

[@Evans_Pokestop]

Probably not a bad idea! I didn't include it because I wasn't sure I would have the bench space with 2 ogerpon, rad greninja, and a few raging bolt or slither wing but worth a shot.

[@Flgfernando_2]

Can you send me deck list pls?
