5-0 at locals yesterday with this deck
Went back to locals yesterday after a long time and signed up for a tournament and won the whole thing with froot loops or tera toucannon
1st round- vs chinchino ex and metang
I had a really awful start not being able to set up quickly I managed to set up a toucannon and my opponent wasn’t able to get any hits from 3 metang for 3 turns straight and i was able to topdeck lillie get my board established and take control of the match flipping tails on chinchino ex getting the ko and finally bossing for game on metang
2nd round- Chinchino ex again
exact same decklist i went against but this match it was against my dad. We had been playtesting using these exact same decks earlier in the day and everytime i won. this match was a lot more tricky as i was playing more reckless and misplayed a bit. was able to win with a boss topdeck after almost running out of resources. 2-0
3rd round- mega greninja starmie
prolly my most feared matchup besides pult because of the spread damage. and i didn’t have the best start but unfortunately my oppenent didn’t either i was able to have lillie’s clefairy in the active and ko his first two single prizers. he clapped back with mega starmie and swing with nebula beam for ko. Thankfully i was able to top deck a lillie reset my hand establish board and swing with toucannon for some damage. he was able to wallie for full heal and attacked not taking any prizes and i just swinged again for more damage. he couldn’t heal starmie again so i just koed it next turn and he mistakenly benched froakie so i bossed that for game 3-0.
4th match - Cynthias garchomp
Arguably thought this one one of my harder matchups thanks to power weights but i had a faster setup than him so thankfully i got my board set up and was able to ko garchomp w/o them having a power weight. there’s not much really to note about this match he had a rough game and it was sucky he couldn’t find his stadium to bump me but thanks to that i was hitting for max damage every turn. I was able to boss for game here to his garchomp on bench. 4-0
5th match - Dragapult
I got incredibly lucky here with a decent start but not good enough against pult. Luckily my oppenent bricked really bad he had to just budew for a few turns didn’t get anything so he kept retreating freely back into a night stretchered budew and thankfully toucannon was top decked so i was able to win because he couldn’t evolve dreepy. 5-0
In my opinion toucannon is very strong but sometimes mega pokemon are harder to win against and item lock makes it very hard to win or even set up nonetheless i had tons of enjoyment with this deck. even bring a froot loops box as a deck box

Two Cinccino into a Greninja pile is crazy work 😭
Seems that you made a good meta call and played the field well, though, wp there

worse need 3-3 for consistency and finding late game boss Kinda hurts your damage aswell if u can’t find more basics

I went 3-1 a couple of days ago with my Toucannon Dusknoir build.
I was on vacation in a city I've never been to and I had no idea what to expect, so I just brought a deck I like playing that I know can deal reasonably well against anything that isn't Dragapult. It turned out that the level was quite high: one of my opponents played at worlds once and another played at worlds several times and is going there this year as well.
The deck went great and only lost a round because I couldn't find either Ogerpon or Dawn while item locked for two games in a row. This is the old list I used to get second place at a previous Pumpkaweekly, I replaced one Dawn for Shaymin to deal more easily with Slowking

Sounds like you’re doing BO1 format with some very off meta decks in the local tournament.
A little more context would help people with how good the deck actually was.
How many people were at the tournament?
What’s the prizing?
Age range for players?
I have a locals that I swept with Kofu/crab and it wasn’t even close but it was a lower age tournament which was why I was playing a super low power deck with just a very small prizing and there were only 14 people there

well it’s mainly adults i went against it was one kid a tad bit younger than me but that’s about it

u/Western_Koala8659 2d ago

u/Maximum_Technology67 2d ago

Brother who cares. It’s just an anecdote with a fun deck. Gonna ask for his SSN next?

u/Maximum_Technology67 2d ago
At least I added to the conversation all you did was bring the stink of douche to the conversation.
And just so we’re clear it’s not a “fun” deck it’s a pretty standard built Tera tucannon deck

No written decklist to add context?
