However, by using the right cards that synergize in specific ways, such a deck can certainly be extremely viable\u2014such as this Regigigas deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing to notice about this deck is that it contains multiple copies of each of the other five Regis from the Time Gazer [S10D] and Space Juggler [S10P] expansion sets. This is where the deck&#8217;s signature card comes in. Ancient Wisdom, the Ability of the Regigigas card from Time Gazer [S10D], allows three Energy cards to be taken from the player&#8217;s discard pile and attached to any of the player&#8217;s Pok\u00e9mon if the player has all of Registeel, Regieleki, Regice, Regidrago, and Regirock in play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another advantage of having all the Regis in the deck is the type of versatility it affords. This deck is able to target the weaknesses of a wide range of Pok\u00e9mon. Once again, this is a somewhat unconventional approach\u2014but if the player sets things up correctly, this deck can be very difficult to stop indeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only non-Regi Pok\u00e9mon in this deck can play an important role as well. If possible, it&#8217;s advisable to lead with Klefki from Violet ex [SV1V]. This card prevents all Basic Pok\u00e9mon&#8217;s Abilities from activating\u2014potentially stymying opponents&#8217; gameplans before they even get off the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of the latest prices, the cumulative cost of the cards in a Regigigas deck is \u00a55,000 (~US$33).<\/p>\n\n\n<p>In other TCG-related news, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2024\/03\/26\/yu-gi-oh-tcg-summon-sorceress-gets-an-edit-and-an-unban-perfect-rulebook-2024-promotional-card-rb07-jp001-release-date-26-april-2024\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Summon Sorceress card, the promotional card bundled with the Perfect Rulebook 2024<\/a>.\u00a0Alternatively, you can also head over to the SNKRDUNK App via the banner below and find the top trending and latest single cards and boxes.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunkappen.page.link\/G4g7_PokemonTCG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-151767\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/15110337\/TCG.webp\" alt=\"TCG on the SNKRDUNK App\" width=\"970\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The idea of a Pok\u00e9mon TCG deck that includes no evolved Pok\u00e9mon at all, let alone Pok\u00e9mon-ex or Pok\u00e9mon VMAX, seems completely ridiculous on the surface.
