if you watch someone play a game, you’re consuming how they play a game, not experiencing the gameplay yourself. video games aren’t a novel, where you can have it read to you without much change to how you consumed it, because the experience is in how you think about and understand the novel. a video game is a game. you need to play it.

some pokemon fans really want every type to have 90 bp 100 accuracy no drawback moves in both physical and special and I think that would be boring

Rotation is coming to TCG Live on March 26th so I’m bringing back the Callback Series where I’ll show off the first version of an archetype vs the last to properly send off all the decks we’re losing to rotation in 8 days! Next in our list? 🔮Gardevoir!🔮 🔮Oh Gardevoir, where has the time gone… oh wait you’ve been dominating since release what am I talking about. 1.6 million dollars in earning with some still to come makes it the most high paying deck of all time. It’s not ridiculous to say this deck is the best deck of all time and it’s DEFINITELY the best energy acceleration of all time. 🔮when gardy first released it was immediately insane. The Kirla we had at the time literally had trade and the single prize gardevoir could be ramped to do insane damage. It’s funny because that gardy (called “shining arcana gardy”) didn’t see any real play at the time because of a lack of psychic energy acceleration at the time. But oh boy was that about to change. 🔮As the players got ahold of the card here in the west and started to pair it with different attackers it was unbelievable how much agency and consistency the deck had. With a celebrations mew in the deck to fetch your battle vip pass and radiant greninja to help get into your kirlia (what you know about mirage step) you could basically do whatever you wanted every single game and once you got Gardy up it was basically over from there. This sort of draw allowed the good players to take full advantage of the deck. There was no “man I hope I draw the perfect combo this turn” because the deck has SO many ways to win games you could take any route presented to you and probably win. All this while spamming iono at your opponent every turn until they whiff something. 🔮I remember when the card first released some people tried to make it work with Mewtwo V-Union as well but ultimately this version came out on top. Second place at worlds just to come back and win worlds later on. Total domination at regionals and IC’s. This deck put many players on the map and warped multiple years worth of formats around it but it gets better. 🔮After the deck had been out a while it did actually lose the refinement kirlia to rotation but also had gained access to some new powerful ace spec options and attackers in scream tail. But probably the one thing that actually sent the deck into bannable levels of broken was munkidori. This single card turned what was once a “set up and hit hard” psychic deck to a “set up and hit hard AND spread” deck. Once the good players caught on to this Munkidori became an instant staple. You were like the unholy offspring of raging bolt and dragapult all mashed together in one broken single prize based powerhouse of a deck. 🔮This would go on for some time allowing players to win multiple regionals and roll over anything in its way. They even gave the deck Lillies Clefairy to make sure you could handle their other favorite card: dragapult. So now you were favored into one of the most popular decks in the room as well as a nasty spread mechanic to destroy any single prize decks that tried to match your prize trading. 🔮Since then the deck hasn’t gotten too many new toys because I think TPCI realizes they can’t print any broken psychic cards until rotation so we’ll probably start to see some again soon. 🔮Although you may hate this deck or love it, you can’t deny its impact on the game we all love playing and the historic power we’ve witnessed over the past years. 🔮I’m ready to stop hearing “well you can’t play this because it has a bad gardy matchup” Farewell Gardevoir ex!!!!

@amcharles0 It's not a question of "if" I fall off... it's a question of "how far". (And let me take one last moment to recognize the most overlooked card in the Gardy Cinematic Universe, just for old time's sake, for you and @__Merten,... RIP Cresselia)

I actually don’t think we are at all as busy as we pretend to be and I think we have plenty of time to do the things we pretend we want to do. It’s just that we are all tethered to our phones 24/ and it seems like we have no free time. But we do, we just spend it online.

Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen are worth the $20 It has been really cool to see the online community experience these games together 99% of people are still in Prof Oak’s lab trying for a shiny starter The other 1% are on Nugget Bridge

I like the newer games fine enough, but I really do think the series lost something major when it ditched the old-school adventure game elements.
