Pokemon TCG Pocket’s Mythical Island mini-set has brought with it some real shakeups in the launch-era meta.
The one exception isArticuno ex, a staple of the Genetic Apex scene.
We also recommendyou stick with Mythical Island’s versions of Eevee and Magikarpif possible.
Forthree Water Energy and one more Energy of any punch in, Rampaging Whirlpool deals140 damage.
It also causesa random Energy from either you or your opponent to be destroyed.
And, if you’re lucky,this can really cripple your foe.
Vaporeon
On the other hand, Gyarados ex’s one flaw is thatRampaging Whirlpool’s four-Energy costissubstantial.
This is whereMythical Island Vaporeoncomes in.
), could help out in the early game?
Give it to Gyarados ex.
Did you useArticuno ex’s Blizzard?Give its Energy to Gyarados ex.
Articuno ex has been a menace since launch, and that continues to be the case here.
As always, this is thanks in large party toMisty.
Broadly speaking,treat these substitutions as replacements specifically for Articuno ex.
Druddigon
Druddigon’s a strange one.
We’re notcompletelysold on its long-term viability, but it can still make its mark.
Of course, that alone wouldn’t mean much.
This comes with the clear caveat that, well,your offensive output takes a major hit.
