Testing for GHI format

Primarily a go second deck, your goal is filling your discard with as many cards with the United Wings attack. With Budew (Prismatic Evolutions) now an active threat, your turn one is essential as any lost tempo will set the deck back a lot, you should aim to have an attacker and start flushing through as much of your deck as you can with Brilliant Blender (Surging Sparks) and Squawkabilly ex (Paldea Evolved). Since the loss of Ditto, Murkrow (Paldea Evolved) has become the deck's primary attacker, but Dartrix (Shrouded Fable) is a good counter for Darkness (primarily Charizard) and Kilowattrel (Paldea Evolved) having free retreat and the ability to snipe low HP targets make the deck's attackers somewhat varied.


Update (05/24/2025):

Made some small changes, found Hand Trimmer (Temporal Forces)  often dead in hand (as assumed) and Counter Gain (Surging Sparks) , while niche, also felt mostly dead. Decided to add in Mimikyu (Scarlet & Violet Promos) and 2x Luminous Energy (Paldea Evolved) to add a little more resiliency to the deck. Looking to add Shaymin from Destined Rivals too if it's beneficial to the deck's health.

1x Hand Trimmer, 1x Counter Gain, 1x Darkness Energy   1x Mimikyu, 2x Luminous Energy

What card were you thinking of swapping for shaymin?

Aasam - I'm not 100% sure. Penny would likely be the next cut to the deck, it's nice to pick up Squawk or Fez but it often just feels like discard fodder. I feel like trying to work in TM:Evo and the Rabsca line would be better, still a work in progress though!

Why blender rather than neutralization zone? Just curious. Other than that its great I'm building a unites wings too and have been having trouble after rotation

Ryoka22 - I've definitely considered Neutralization Zone and you still should, it's a really great defensive card to include. I just found everytime I played it, it was often bumped the turn after 90% of the time. I chose Blender because it still plays nicely into how the deck originally played pre-rotation and it's easily searchable off Arven.
