In the early game, many players prioritise setting up a Nidoqueen first, as it benefits their set up in the long term in a format where games can last considerably longer than in Standard Format. Meanwhile, Nidoqueen acts as your primary Pokémon search in the deck, and can also double up as a powerful attacker. This means that your opponents can more easily knock out Charizard, or put it within range of knocking itself out with Roaring Resolve if it is used in successive turns. The downside to this card comes in the fact that it damages itself in the process of accelerating energy, and that the energy must be discarded in order to use the attack.

This means that you can allocate you manual attachments elsewhere, knowing that you can power up Charizard whenever you need to. The main attacker of the deck is of course Charizard, with its Roaring Resolve ability allowing it to accelerate two energy into play at the cost of two damage counters. Each evolution line serves a different purpose, and they all have their own individual strengths and weaknesses. Where Relentless Flame’s strength’s lie in are its evolution Pokémon, with Farfetch’d being the only set up basic in the deck. Whether you are playing with it or against it, it can be an incredibly frustrating deck one game, only to play completely differently the next. Relentless Flame is undoubtably the Marmite deck of the format.
So, without further ado, here are (in no particular order) my top 5 picks for Theme Decks on PTCGO. This format is ideal for new players who don’t know where to starting standard, or for player who don’t have access to codes and want a competitive deck in a format they can do well in.
With that in mind we now can now look at this format in a vacuum and come to a conclusion of what are the best decks in the Theme Deck format. While never see play in a competitive sense, there is an entire format dedicated to them on the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online (PTCGO) which, much like Legacy, the other PTCGO exclusive format, can now be considered ‘complete’. With the recent release of the Blastoise V and Venusaur V Battle Decks alongside Battle Styles, and with more due in the future it seems as though Theme Decks are now a thing of the past.
