sorry about the audio feedback in this video! working to fix this stuff, thanks for your patience as always!

[@druidobianco9734]

Tricky Gym hi, i’d love to start playng “old school” format of pokemon tcg, can you give me more information about it? Who plays it, how many old school formats exists, what expansions are legal, wher can i find online resources? Thank you so much

I REALLY LOVE ALL OF THESE VIDEOS

[@mxt7407]

Love these older deck videos, actually building this and gonna try out some others as well. The heymaker buzzapdos match was awesome but would like to see some other matches against other decks to see how they used to grind against each other. Keep em up!

[@Scribblescrabbly]

I still have my Haymaker deck from long ago. Thank you for this bit of nostalgia. Great times during my childhood. ;)

[@dekarispp]

I really like this series. A lot of my buddies from Chicago have gotten into retro format. Specifically 08-11 would love to see some sp/lv. X deck profiles! Love the content guys!!

[@InvyKing]

I'm gonna have to look up some footage of these older decks in action!! So awesome!! (:

[@OldPeepaw]

Man I love this. I've been around since base set, so this was a wonderful nostalgia trip.

[@Hylianlink51047]

Seeing this super late, but Im excited to try this deck out in the Pokemon TCG GBC game

[@jacobguy3343]

This is awesome I have been in a retro format mood

[@alexedes921]

Jacob Guy it's Soooo fun! I love the old days and Black Out was my first theme deck.

[@h2wm]

Love the old stuff! Keep up the good work! Makes me want to try to build an EVO Zapdos deck with counter energy + Electrode haha.

[@TrickyGym]

or try it with magnezone!! hahah !

[@h2wm]

Now we talking 8-)

[@ptcg-teamdark6182]

More! give us More old decks !! :D love it

[@TheCleansingTH]

Sad that this deck can't be built in the Gameboy Color game. That version of Electrode isn't in the game, probably because they couldn't figure out how to make it work mechanically within the game's code.

[@alexisdiaz651]

i love your videos about old school, do you have deck list or somenthig about fire water decks? or about pikachu venasour charizar decks? that would be great. very good job Tricky Gym

[@richierich1213]

Awesome deck

[@prolixjapan7325]

"in base format you can attack first turn". Was it only for base format ? In which year was this rule changed ?

[@revolutionairerebel9511]

It's cool to see how the tcg is changed in these years...

[@jenniferwalsh7441]

Keep it up

[@Pringlesman]

Is there any changes to this deck you would make if you were to update this to base-fossil format? I'm working on a deck gauntlet.

[@obsidiansheep132]

What sleeves do you use for competitive play and are u going to the Collinsville regional

[@estebangold12]

Can you show the charizard zapp??

[@kixxknuckles1st732]

I can’t wait to see some battles

[@TrickyGym]

got one coming up on friday!

[@WaffleDragon]

I'm guessing the Fossil Zapdos isn't as powerful, especially with a reliance on coin-flips. I've heard before about a mill deck using Moltres, have you ever seen anything about that?

[@TrickyGym]

moltres can be used to mill cards in fire decks yes !

[@bernieswim]

Now ive gotta build this deck in my 3DS pokemon tcg game.

[@Luiginicon]

Sadly, Buzzap Electrode is not in the TCG videogame :(

[@EPIALUS]

What 3ds game??!?

[@bernieswim]

EPIALUS ROCKVILLE Pokemon tcg in the eShop. It has the first three sets

[@tdm17mn]

I really wish they would add these cards/packs to ptgco... But Legacy events seem so dead now. :( Anyone still play it?

[@MazterP28]

doduo for free retreat. thats cool. never thought of that

[@EPIALUS]

Do you give up a prize card when you use Electrode’s ability??

[@lf7169]

Yes

[@daltonsettles8464]

Is this expensive to build in ptcgo ?

[@WaffleDragon]

If only you could, Pokemon doesn't even acknowledge cards WotC made on their website.

[@tdm17mn]

WotC?

[@WaffleDragon]

Wizards of the Coast

[@noticemegenki6049]

Sounds like a cat is purring through the whole vid lol

[@PinguGnu]

Buzzap is still great in raichu

[@robo-rex0239]

But hitmonchan

[@makedaevilmage]

Fun fact: Lass got translated in Dutch to Meisje, which simply means Girl. xD

[@lt6368]

Sup

[@YoutubeGringo-bg7vm]

Some of these cards are fake u agree?

[@erraticwoolgathering2847]

This deck seems so sketchy ;p

[@revolutionairerebel9511]

Ahahahha 4 copies of computer search....
