Goldeen

Uh, I, I still don't want to rate it that highly though.

The, the best upside of the fish is that you can start Goldeen so you brick less really.

Yeah.

That's, that's about the biggest credit I can give it, and maybe you can missed energy scam on Alakazams, uh, because even if they can do, like, the hammer stuff, because you're a one-prize deck you get ahead enough that it doesn't matter, right?

Enthralled, yeah.

Because one of the issues with the Festival League deck is the inconsistency, right? But when you actually just have a ton of Goldeen in the list, right? And you don't have to worry about your Applins evolving into Diplins, right? And you've got Sea King, which can have the Mist energy on it, so that's an extra level of protection against Dragapult.

I was like, okay, okay, we're actually checking some boxes here.

Now, I do think that this list desperately wants three Brave Bangle.

So pretty happy with that.

I was very worried that I wouldn't get a decent Seaking because that was kind of my big goal for this event was to get a decent Goldeen that I could evolve into Seaking and... used two elite charge TMs on to get both of its legacy moves, which is Icy Wind and Drill Run.

But I did get one on the last day.

I got one on the Monday.

We'll talk about that in a little bit.

And I thought the Wild Spawns for this event were great.

I mean, Goldeen was around.

We don't see Goldeen a lot these days.

Could we get them out of retirement? They're probably all like 16 years old now.

Not like a like a like a Goldeen, you know, or a Magikarp.

Like, I think a Goldeen or a Magikarp would be a lot weaker to getting scratched than being wet on fire.

They're wet.

That's true.

It wouldn't have been the best thing ever, but only now that they're about to die, they bring them.

Misty also has a Goldeen!

Would any of you trust water Pokemon that small to ride you across that storm?

I go back to Little Root Town, I'm flying on my Taillow, and he takes me all the way back.

On a Greyhound bus Lord, I'm traveling this morning I'm going to Shreveport and down to New Orleans Been traveling

these highways Been doing things my way It's been making me lonesome, Henri and me Now her hair was jet black and her name was Goldeen She thought she was the cream of the Beijing street queens

of that smoky

wine drink began to feel lonesome unreality

uh again don't know if there's a really really good player that can play what do you think we shall see i ultimately think no i think the deck has its matchups right um It hits for very good weakness as well, too.

And between the Brave Bangles, I think now even with Gladion, you can play the Goldeen and Seaking line, right? That helps you kind of draw some cards as well, too, maybe after Stamp or something.

But, like, playing double Gladion and then, like, even a Bangle, like, it just makes sense.

You're able to pare down your hand, so...

Hmm.

And I am seeing the Goldeen pre-evolution.

Oh.

[chuckles] I didn't even think-

Both of these are interesting to me because we've heard some rumors about Psyduck getting a new evolution.

Yeah.

And then with Goldeen, uh, Goldeen and Seaking are just like prime candidates, in my opinion-

Yeah
