Mail day!
Not the most exciting but fills a lot of empty spaces/proxies.
Finding 3 Town Volunteers at one store was big. Also got Shedinja for just above $20cad so waiting paid off.

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

@Whimsicast I'm planning on building the Cradily Stall that has the package in it.
I've been looking for a decently priced shedinja for a couple months and finally found one this week.

Do The Wave 2004 Worlds

Wigglytuff... sucks lol
But I have found this list to be more consistent and can cheese some wins by being able to put on early game pressure.

Xatu can spread early to fix numbers
And offset any 2hko and desert ruins damage

List is my own

BlazeKing 2004 Worlds

Been working on this for a couple weeks now, and I like it.
Still a WIP but a solid concept.
I'd like to add shaman for disruption + ability lock
Bounce energy is probably the cut but it's a funny card for a funny deck

List is my own

[Whimsicast @Whimsicast]

@2_riskee What about WigMar with the 16 card Shedinja stall tech line?

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

@Whimsicast I haven't actually played with a shedinja stall archetype so I would've never thought of this lol

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

The only reason I play a mix of energy is because I don't want to power up opposing gorebyss too early

Poké Park is from when the deck played all psychic energy. I barely use Poké Park, so I could see Power Plant being a little more useful.

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

@TrainerJEvans But if you have a group to play rspk with, I would go rspk. If they are indifferent, I would do respected formats and modify decks if there was ever an rspk side event or unofficial event

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

@TrainerJEvans I was heavily considering building rspk over other ex era formats.
I decided against it because it's not an easy format to pickup and play. The majority of players I would play with would be first timers to retro or even anything from SM and earlier.

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

@Whimsicast Add Hidden legends in there too
Doesn't have a great time into Magma, Gorebyss decks and Medicham decks.
But against other blaziken, gardi and slow swampert decks it can do well.
It's a high roll in my gauntlet but performs well so far

@tired_dem Yeah! After finding the Blaziken Ninetales (ex21) for the SCS, I've been working on the list and added it to my 04 gauntlet.

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

Another mail day full of WC cards!
Was blessed by the damaged card gods and got the machamp and rev bellossom
One more vulpix and then BlazeTales is finished!

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

@Whimsicast So far, each AR has been from a unique region/gen. I could see them doing an AR for each gen, especially with how ARs keep growing in popularity.

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

Big mail day!
WC cards coming in clutch here.
Went for the blaziken ex and somehow found the other half I needed of my WC RDL
Also found a $3 countdown combee??? One of the last few I was missing.

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

@Whimsicast Classic 04 is the best 04 imo
Makes silly decks like flygon viable

I have turbo swampert built in my gauntlet which has forced most my decks that play Delcatty to be using 1-1 split of 40/50hp skitty

You really notice the difference with modern lists vs classic

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

@Pkmn_RubyRetro Always post 04 lists

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

@TeamPokeColors MP
If it was listed with a stock photo and marked HP, I'd be pleasantly surprised

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

Halfway done the mewtwo hunt!
Bunch of 04 filler cards
Random prof promo that I needed for my cube and a damaged lanturn prime!
Also, it took over a year to complete the playset of snorunts but we got there

[2Riskee @2_riskee]

Mail day!
Was given a heads up about a store having a 40% off sale and took advantage of it!

Picked up a lot of pieces for 2010 and the collectors were a huge help.
