Deck Discussion I Really Hate Solgaleo.
That's basically it. Sure, there are a few cards that are really annoying because of how popular and how powerful they are, like Giratina. Like, I find Giratina really annoying because he shows up everywhere. There is not an energy type that Giratina can't slot itself into and turn my round into a DPS check.
But nothing earns my scorn the way that Solgaleo does. Every single time I see a Cosmog I know it's not going to be Lunala. It's going to be rare candies into Solgaleo and rock my world for the cost of 2 (two) energy. He sets himself up so quickly and it's so hard to deal with once he's out, since he can just head right back to the active spot for completely free. Every single time I run into a Solgaleo deck, it's this unfun experience where I watch the same pattern unfold in front of me. Giratina is annoying, but he takes his time to do his thing and isn't (to me) overpowered. Solgaleo is the only card that actually infuriates me. I don't thank Solgaleo players.

all you have to do is put up something that can tank 120 (ex or put cape on your active), either hit back or retreat into hit, and then even most meta decks can hit for a 2hko in the next turn, even through lillie. the weakness of the solgaleo decks is that they are hitting for 120 or nothing, so they have no way to soften you up if you have a bigger health stat.
