Top 5 Poke Powers
in the Modified Format
January 5, 2007
Here’s a quick look at the best, and most popular
poke-powers in the current format.
|
#5.) Chimecho d (Holon Phantoms)
Delta Support
This little guy here takes away the only draw back
in the Holon engine, the discard.
You simply discard the energy then grab it right
back, and because it goes to your hand, you can
still use it after the fact. You can mentor for him,
and he is a delta type so Holon Castform a\will be
able to draw an additional card. |
|
#4.) Fearow (Crystal Guardians)
Delta Sign
The ability to grab any delta pokemon with no
restrictions is way to valuable to be over looked in
a format dominated by delta species. And because it
is only a stage 1, he can be fit into any deck
effortlessly. |
|
#3.) Banette EX (Legend Maker)
Shady Move
Banny’s Shady move only ranks this high because it
can be abused so easily with his only attack, which
helps pile damage quickly. With the ability to move
the damage so early in the game, it often causes
opponents to forfeit the early 10 damage from a
basic, because it will only be moved and might cause
an easy KO. |
|
#2.) Dragonite d (Delta Species)
Delta Charge
This is the cornerstone card and power in the most
dominating deck in the game right now. Allowing you
to recycle L energy to any benched, it’s cumulative
so the more draggy's in play the more energy you’ll
get back. It allows for some amazing combos when you
throw a castform on a benched Lugia EX, or a benched
latios*. |
|
#1.) Flygon d (Holon Phantoms)
Delta Supply
The ONLY reason, that this power is better than
draggy’s is because it allows you to attach any type
of basic energy, or d rainbow, to any delta pokemon,
anywhere in play. And because delta types dominate
the format, you’ll most likely be attaching to a
delta species anyway. |
A very hard list to compile, some very good powers were left
out. Here is an Honorable Mention
*Alteria d EX (Dragon Frontiers) Extra Boost-
Stage 2 EXs are always overpriced, this makes them
affordable.
*Flareon EX (Delta Species) Evolutionary Flame-Because
it works from the bench, and gets around Holons WP, or
attack effects, it can be combined very well.
*Sceptile d EX (Crystal Guardians) Extra Liquid-
He Gives any EX based decks a horrible match up. especially
if you are behind.
*Metagross d (Delta Species) Delta Control- A
mini Wishing Star with no drawbacks, what’s not to love.
*Gardevoir EX (Dragon Frontiers) Imprison-Shut down
all powers and bodies the entire game…. nuff said.
