Pokemon Card of the Day #2592: Raichu-GX (Shining Legends)

Raichu-GX was all about power. It had a stand-alone attack with a notable drawback and one that needed set-up but could be extremely strong with enough set-up. Lightning was a type with plenty of competition, as a Pokemon of the type had to stand out among a wide variety of choices as well as against Rayquaza-GX, which wasn’t Lightning-type but paired with them anyway. The strength here gave Raichu-GX a good chance, though the lack of extra perks did mean it would almost entirely rely on that to break through.

210 HP was good for a Stage 1 Pokemon-GX, being similar to most of its competition. It did have to look out a bit more than most, as Thunder did damage Raichu-GX when used and 180, while by no means frail, was starting to get in the range of strong boosted attacks and 150, if it got to that, wasn’t that reliable at all. The Fighting Weakness gave an opening to Lycanroc-GX and various other Pokemon of the type, with it mattering a lot in the BKT-On format and not nearly as much after the rotation to SUM-On. The Metal Resistance didn’t change too much, as nice as it was to see a Resistance when many Pokemon lacked one. Being able to retreat for just an Energy was quite nice as well.

Powerful Spark needed a lot of set-up to reach its potential, as the base damage was just 20 for 2 Colorless Energy. Each Lightning Energy attached to any of your Pokemon added 20. This could add up, and while it was hard to get up to numbers like 8 or more Energy in play, cards like Max Elixir, Pikachu & Zekrom-GX, Tapu Koko Prism Star, and Thunder Mountain Prism Star could certainly help get there. The other issue that, with all of the set-up needed, it was hard to outdo either Rayquaza-GX or Pikachu & Zekrom-GX as an attacker, with its chances better alongside the Tag Teams simply because Powerful Spark could technically reach even greater heights and Lightning had more support there.

Thunder did 160 damage for 2 Lightning and a Colorless Energy, which was very impressive. 30 damage to Raichu-GX was a pain as it made some damage numbers a lot easier to hit, though against some Pokemon you’d still be able to take a hit so it wasn’t completely going to destroy its bulk every time. You’d still need to be careful, especially in a potential Lightning-type mirror match as both Rayquaza-GX and Pikachu & Zekrom-GX could find ways to 180. The reliable damage came in handy rather often nonetheless.

The GX attack here, Voltail GX, did just 120 for 3 Energy, but also guaranteed Paralysis and had no drawback. There were probably better GX attacks in any deck you’d use Raichu-GX in even if the Paralysis could come in handy sometimes.

Raichu-GX was a strong attacker for a type that could provide it the Energy it needed, making it rather good. Lightning was also full of Pokemon to work with, with Pikachu & Zekrom-GX being mentioned for a reason here, being powerful and being able to help other Pokemon set up. The type also had Zapdos for single-Prize attacking, Zeraora-GX for free retreating, Jolteon-GX and Xurkitree-GX to wall certain things while still getting some damage off, and Raichu & Alolan Raichu-GX which gave up an extra Prize but was generally a better alternative in this role. It’s amazing that Raichu-GX, which was functionally rather good, almost never made it into a deck, but that was the reality of being a Lightning-type. Being rather good wasn’t enough there, and it would take one more Raichu card to get to that point.

We painted some t-shirts for my vacation! The first wash didn’t do well but I’ll touch it up when I get time again.

I based the art around the new Chuchu GX TCG card coming to America someday!

Pokemon Card of the Day #3130: Pikachu & Zekrom-GX (Team Up)

Pikachu & Zekrom-GX was given almost everything a card could ask for. There were ways to accelerate Energy early on, making a big turn 2 hit very possible. Said attack also got even more Energy from the deck and into play. The GX attack was not only strong, but Energy stacking could let it hit two Pokemon at once. There were also ways to boost damage here due to being a Lightning-type. It was like they built the format for this card. On top of that, they put Pikachu on it, making sure the mascot of the series got serious play. This is not to say that Pikachu & Zekrom-GX was by any means unstoppable, as other very good Tag Teams existed and there were viable decks beyond that. It is probably quite obvious that this card would at minimum be a threat for quite some time due to just how much help they gave it.

Pikachu & Zekrom-GX was actually on the lower end of Tag Team HP numbers, coming in at 240. This was still going to have the same result a lot of the time, but it did do things like save an Energy for Blacephalon or Turtonator, as well as letting Zoroark-GX get the 2-hit KO if fully set up. A Fighting Weakness occasionally mattered for the short time where Buzzwole was still hanging around. It also mattered just before this card rotated out with the rise of Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX, a card that could get a clean KO and do 120 to something on the Bench. The Metal Resistance was there, but it did not actually prevent an ADP boost from letting Zacian V reach a big KO. The Retreat Cost here was 3, and being a bulky Pokemon that gave up 3 Prizes meant that this was quite notable. Most decks running this card ran a few copies of Switch, with some going all the way to 4. This worked well with the combination of big HP and the ability to get Energy onto a new attacker while still making progress.

Full Blitz was a spectacular attack. 150 damage for 3 Lightning Energy would have been solid even by itself. Tapu Koko Prism Star or Boltund V could help get a 2 turn set-up for this, making the deck rather quick. It somehow got even better from there. You also got to search your deck for up to 3 Lightning Energy and attached them to 1 of your Pokemon. This could power up a second Pikachu & Zekrom-GX, or could go to another partner like Raichu & Alolan Raichu-GX, Boltund V, or Vikavolt V. This was generally set up to take down multi-Prize Pokemon in 2 hits, and single Prize Pokemon right away, but you could use Electropower to get a big KO in an important spot since the power was good enough to get close a lot of the time.

Tag Bolt GX did take up the team's GX attack, which did mean giving up the giant hit that Raichu & Alolan Raichu-GX provided if running that too. It was still very good, and if not up against another Tag Team it tended to be the better GX attack. The base was 200 damage for 3 Energy, which was in a nice spot to take down 2 Prize Pokemon. If 3 more Energy on top of that were attached, it also did 170 damage to 1 of the opponent's Benched Pokemon, potentially getting another KO in the process if Mew wasn't there to protect everything. Getting a big hit on 2 Pokemon could be game changing, even if it did require sticking a ton of Energy on one Pokemon. The strategy could definitely work considering how Full Blitz worked.

Pikachu & Zekrom-GX was given the right combination of support and powerful attacks to be a threat for multiple years. It made top cut at Worlds 2019, won a few regional tournaments with plenty of top results, and even once things shut down for the pandemic it was a top tier deck in online tournaments. The deck won at both the Pokemon Online Championships and Players Cup II, and only fell off right at the end when huge VMAX Pokemon and the rise of Fighting as a type finally caught up to it. This was one of the most popular decks of its era and saw a lot of success, and it deserved a lot of praise. This was not just being used because people liked Pikachu, after all.
