Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Glad we can celebrate this incredible holiday together Colin! My partner and I have been sending lyrics back and forth all weekend. This album has somehow ascened beyond any of my expectations. Day, in particular, has impressed me so much. 110
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 19/09/2026I got 2nd at GG's SSH-CRZ tournament with Sylveon VMAX!! R1: W vs Arc/Dura R2: W vs Arc/Dura R3: W vs Lost Box Raikou/Zamazenta R4: L vs Mew List credit to Jonatán Espinoza, this is 59/60 of his list. The deck is very fun, it feels even into basically everything. Try it out! 020
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Your list is really really cool! But I can't lie that the list I played against in day 2 with Grimsley and Mega Gengar was also pretty dang cool. 110
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 14/06/2026Finished 7-3-4 for 408th/3752 at NAIC with Mega Lopunny/Mega Froslass! I knew I wanted to play a Wally deck, so I picked this up 2 weeks ago and got about 20 games of practice in before the weekend This deck feels so good to play, I always felt in control. Fan Rotom was my MVP. 190
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 13/06/2026After 16 years of competing, with 10 years in the Masters Division, I have finally made my first Day 2. 🩷 #PlayPokemon 280

Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 04/05/2025I went 2-2 at Riley Wren's 2011 worlds showcase at Milwaukee! R1: L vs Stage Ones R2: W vs Prime Time R3: W vs Magneboar R4: L vs Yanmega/Kingdra Lost the win-and-in, but still had a great time! Always fun to play 2011, even when I didn't play a deck with Yanmega (my all-time fav card!) 260
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 12/03/2025As a tribute to my favorite deck rotating, I present: Every card I have ever played in Lost Box. From SSH-LOR all the way to BRS-SSP. 43919
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 28/02/2025I commissioned a piece from @spouons.bsky.social that I ended up printing on canvas for a gift. They have a very unique way of drawing Pokemon 110

Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 17/11/2024I got Top 4 at the Good Games league cup with Lost Box!!! This is my best finish ever!!!!! I was inspired by the LAIC stream to return to my roots and threw this 60 together last night Shoutout to Anthony for winning and Dan for also getting top 4. Today was a #GGWIN! 120
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 14/11/2024😭 I greatly value flat cards, I try to get them whenever possible. All other cosmetic damage is irrelevant if I can get it flat 000
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 13/11/2024While the Water is primarily there for Glalie, Energy Switch + Water Energy is a powerful synergy that lets you stream multiple Gorebyss without needing to draw Multi Energy. Just move the water from Lanturn to a new Gorebyss and attach a psychic energy to keep attacking 100
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 13/11/2024MLG (2004) This is my new list using the Energy Switch innovation from War of 04. This deck is BUSTED! I went on a 20+ game win streak with this list on TCGONE. It's my favorite deck in the format, and this updated list elevates the deck to a whole new level! 110
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 01/03/2024Matchups: W vs Zard W vs Chien Pao W vs Gardevoir W vs Espathra ex ID vs Arc/Vulpix/Calyrex (we played for fun. He got a good start, I took 5 prizes but he took it in the end!) I never used Kyogre today lol. Greninja V-UNION played a role in nearly every game! Shockingly strong 000
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 01/03/2024I won the Good Games League Challenge with Greninja V-UNION!!! Tonight was a dream. What a fun way to close out the format. Thanks to everyone for the amazing games 💙💜 Shoutout to Daniel for also going undefeated with Arc/Vulpix! We played for fun, and he won a close one 110
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 09/10/2023Rapid Strike has been so much fun to play in tournaments. I thorougly enjoyed every moment with the deck this weekend :) 000
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 09/10/2023I knew I would eventually have to hit Lugia/Mew, and it came in the final round. Even as it was clear I wasn't going to make it, I had so much fun watching my Inteleon get bashed for 440 damage. And it was my opponent's first Day 2 as well! 100
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 09/10/2023Matchups: R1: LWT vs ArvenZard w/ Radiant Tsareena R2: WW vs Miraidon R3: WLW vs Chien Pao R4: WLW vs Turbo Lost Box R5: WLL vs Turbo Lost Box R6: WW vs Lost Tina R7: LWL vs Lost Goodra R8: WW vs Chien Pao R9: LL vs Colorless Lugia 100
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 09/10/2023I went 5-3-1 at Peoria with Rapid Strike! This was EASILY the most fun I've ever had playing in a tournament! Every single match today was exciting, I got to play in my first ever win-and-in, and I wasn't stressed at all during the day. I had a blast all nine rounds 💙 130
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 24/09/2023Some Battle VIP stats from today's challenge: 4/5 opponents opened Battle VIP I opened Battle VIP once I opened Forest Seal Stone for Battle VIP three times On Tuesday's challenge, I opened one FSS for VIP. Never naturally opened VIP 000
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 24/09/2023Went 3-2 at two League Challenges this week with Rapid Strike. This deck is just sooo much fun to play! Each challenge I played against 5 different decks in five rounds, which is cool :) 110
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 12/09/2023I will continue to work on this list. In particular, I am considering a 7th Fighting Energy, and also possibly a copy of ATM Rock. I will need to play around and see how I like it! 000
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 12/09/2023I aimed for a modern take of Magma, taking inspiration from Robin Schulz's list that won Jay Hornung's Win-A-Box tournament in 2021. In particular, I think three Briney is incredible, effectively giving you 7 copies of Groudon. 100
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 12/09/2023Magma (2004) The iconic archetype to win the first World Championships (in all THREE divisions!), Magma is a low-to-the ground, aggressive force in 2004, and a must-have for any 04 gauntlet. This is my own list, discussion in replies! 100
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 11/09/2023Gardevoir (2004) Gardevoir is very strong and very fun, punishing large hand sizes while flooding energy onto the board. Basically every Pokemon is an attacker in this deck! This was my favorite 04 deck for a long time. I highly recommend giving it a try! 010
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 01/09/2023Tack on four Pokemon Reversal, and you have a terrifying, low-to-the-ground single prize deck. I love MLG's versatile and extremely dynamic gameplay. This is absolutely one of my all-time favorite archetypes 💙💛🧡 000
Evan @evancole.bsky.social · 01/09/2023Most decks play some sort of Rainbow energy, meaning your opponent is also increasing the damage of Mystic Water. Medicham's attacks also allow for uncapped damage potential, giving you a chance to swing big even when Mysitc Water can't 100
