    Surprised Ziggmiceter hasn’t posted here yet to hype how AMAZING it is w/ Garbodor, and how it doesn’t need to worry about Cobalion EX because nobody’s going to play that.
    Seriously though, auto-para is interesting, and WILL be played with Garbodor, but I’m not sure if it will be popular enough to tech for. With Scramble Switch, Switch, and Escape Rope though most decks that have a hard time against this will be playing 5-7 Switch outs. I don’t think this deck is going to be too great.

      Well, Cobalion EX doesn’t hit for weakness with “Steel Bullet”, if you were refering to that. But “Righteous Edge” does do 60 damage, and discards Articuno EX’s Plasma energy, which is okay. I don’t think Articuno has a place in the metagame right now, because of how good of deck Keldeo/Blastoise is. If the pony ever dies down, Articuno might have a good niche to fill.

        If Articuno WAS to be played, it would be BECAUSE of Keldeo, cuz garbodor gives an advantage against it. And of course I wasn’t referring to Steel Bullet OHKOing. But nevertheless I agree hat Articuno is not good for now.
