The Ultimate Chien-Pao Guide for Temporal Forces!

Today I'm going to discuss Chien-Pao's surge in popularity, how to build your deck list, and go over all of the matchups Chien-Pao has in the current metagame!

[@JaimeJMarrero]

Would love an update for Twilight, it's been BRUTAL

[@juanvalenzuela1416]

we see a lot insane players trying cpao but we just had one ceo pao

[@warrenleibbrandt1315]

Great to see another Vid man. Missed the content

[@CiaranTCG]

Great video man, always love your unique takes on the deck! Your raw Boxed Order went hard against me at Euic lol. CPAO 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶

[@jgrimesey]

CPAO 🥶🥶🥶

[@TreeckoTVV]

hey, he's back! I said hello to you at EUIC, congrats on getting top 64

[@pokerayz]

Heeeeeeeyyyyyy the real ultimate guide to chien pao. Let’s goooooooooooo. Not some fake video by the board of chien pao.

[@Goobrino]

Is there beef lmao wtf

[@theodensa2601]

Being the CEO isn't just being apart of the company board of directors. CEO overlooks the board. That's the ironic part.

[@Ok_toker69]

The person you’re talking crap on just got 2nd place with Chien Pao at Indy Regionals. GET OWNED

[@pokerayz]

@@Ok_toker69 it’s banter bro! Not that deep 🤣

welcome to my mine ✨️

[@Vanguardmetrics]

ITS BEEN 84 YEARS another jgrimesey hit lets go my man

[@emilands3635]

Thanks man, I cut cyllene and cologne for Ditto and boxed order. I feel like it's adding consistency that's important for the casual player like myself.

[@chillax9999]

I pulled boxed order at my last locals prize. I think i have to play it now!

[@yourpenguins8739]

As much Eri ive been going against i can never see Boxed order going in my deck sadly🤣

[@GoodElk]

I'm really enjoying watching your games with Chien Pao and have recently started playing both tcg and Chien Pao. I was a little confused on the rules, I found on live I could discard energy on other pokemon on my bench when attacking with Chien-pao, is there a rule that stops you discarding multiple water energy from different pokemon on your team in play because I can't do that in live? Thanks again for you fantastic content and entertaing games 😁

[@jakesaround]

You can discard water energy only from any of your Pokémon in play while attacking with CPAO

[@Goobrino]

Canceling Cologne also shuts off Flutter, Klefki and other annoying active abilities.

[@darrenvillanueva8074]

What card would you change from your latest list to accommodate space for Boxed Order? I'm currently leaning towards removing a Nest Ball since I also want to include Cyllene

[@jgrimesey]

The two flex slots from Orlando are the vacuum and the 4th candy! At least that’s what I changed between EUIC and Orlando

[@Phantomydg]

So if I were to take your FL list to build from, what are the most cuttable cards? Because I loved the feel of 3 super rods and Cyllene won me 2 games at a cup the other day (I know you don't love it and maybe I'm coping) but my locals are also on the Pao so I feel like I need Manaphy... I also want to try the boxed order technology. I assume it's -1 candy, -1 lost vacuum, +1 super rod, +1 manaphy. I'll try without Cyllene and just be smarter with resources, but what about trying to squeeze in boxed order? Do you think Manaphy is really needed for mirror/lost box or just try to bench 3 frigi when you know they can Ninja?

[@jgrimesey]

It’s not always the easiest to dodge ninja with triple frig but yeah that’s the idea

[@SaibisTV]

Thoughts on C Pao going into twilight masq release? Concerns again Pult

70 HP little guy

[@brandowgodoy303]

Você foi ao Regional de SP?

[@joeraysinger7566]

Been playing the Reagan list, but cut a stop for the ditto. Thinking now I should cut it for the cologne

[@jgrimesey]

Triple stop is unbelievably good though, you unfortunately kinda need that card for this deck to work haha

[@joeraysinger7566]

@@jgrimesey I worded that horribly, cut cologne for the ditto so I can go back to 3 stops. I barely end up using the PC CC combo when I need it.

[@all-in4it]

Cyllene lets you recycle Prime catcher and ser so you can play Prime catcher for a 2nd time

[@ezequiel5978]

what do you think about kyogre for the ancienbox matchup?

[@jgrimesey]

Doesn’t make it positive so not worth it imo

[@J-roll1]

im very new, chien pow is my first deck into meta pokemon, I feel im very unlucky alot, Tons of times I keep prizing alot of what I need Also I feel against charziard if they open good and go first you lose, so many times Im forced going second and on their second turn they have a zard and pigeot with energy everywhere I did a league tournament and lost my only match to someone playing ancient box, they had a situation where if they prime catcher me i lose, they did skwovet to draw 1, they top decked a bibaral, evolve then draw 5 and primed me, I was fumming Its very fun though getting 6 energy and 1 shotting charizard

[@jgrimesey]

Yeah into zard you need to have a good setup if you don’t it’s hard. You don’t lose if they go first, just promote pao and chill so you can respond to their zard

[@J-roll1]

@@jgrimesey yeah playing more I've realised I need to think how I should set up the prize exchange, it's like a whole other layer now to a strategy

[@boosterrooster]

Chien pao!

[@romcomgod18]

damn

[@hiffwelaflare]

Boxed Order truly is the filthiest item card, it’s so unbelievable to boxed order turn 1. It should be a federal crime to hard open boxed order.
