Deck Primer

Basically fairly meta Urshifu Vmax deck. Main concerns are when you come up on one of the many psychic based decks in standard, but with good timing and resource management those can usually be beaten. 

Main goal is pretty much just power up Urshifu Vmax and keep pounding your opponent's pokemon with Gmax Rapid Flow from turn 2-3 onward. Includes the tower of waters to be able to get the active Urshifu out of trouble, while also being able to power up the Gale Thrust attack to hit for that

Shoutout the homie Officelinebacker helping me realize that, despite providing it, Rapid Strike energy don't actually count as water energy, I'll chalk that up to having started actually playing and caring about the Pokemon tcg barely over a month ago! I pretty much took his reccomendations in the comment, although instead of opting for an air balloon, I added another Tower of Waters, which in this deck functions as the same thing, just a bit better because it works for most of the deck, plus it's easier to power up the Gale Thrust attack.

I still can't believe I originally had Urns in the list and just forgot which urshifu they went with lmao

The sad part is, this deck can still beat people because Urshifu vmax is just that strong... despite being an awfully built deck.

@Horiz0ntal, now the deck looks more like a regular rs urshifu build. The 4 single strike urns in a rapid strike deck made no sense, i see you corrected that. Still, there is a lot of work to be done: - You have 1 basic energy on the deck with 2 buckets to search them. - 4 melony to get 1 energy back from the discard pile. I understand you are going to try to rapid flow every turn, so you might just get 1, but in reality the perfect game doesnt happen. Add 3-5 basic water energy. - Crobat V is a laibility for the rest of the game. Drop it and rely on Inteleon engine. - No balloon to pivot between knockouts Add 1 ballon instead of rope.

Yea I see that comment and I totally misunderstood the rapid strike energy, I can't fetch it with bucket or bring it back with melony, that is entirely my bad for not understanding how the card worked, forgive me for being fairly new to the pokemon tcg! I will be updating it shortly to make it not hot garbage lmao @Officelinebacker
