![]() Many people try to bring a 4-3 line of Whimsicott VSTAR and I think that is the safest and most efficient number because a 4th Whimsicott VSTAR can sometimes be a liability in your deck where it can be optimised for another card. Yes, you can only use this once, but for knocking out VMAX? I'm in! This is also one of the reasons why Whimsicott VSTAR can still get a grip in the top tier of the format because you can come out of nowhere knocking out a VMAX in your opponent's bench. Also, if you read carefully, you can use Double Turbo Energy too for it so it will be much easier for you to meet the attack cost for certain damage. Then its VSTAR Power is an OHKO potential because it can snipe your opponent's Bench Pokemon with astonishingly high damage. Cards like Choice Belt and Air Balloon will be significantly impacted by Tricky Wind because your opponent can’t attach them at all. This really helps you because of 250HP that Whimsicott VSTAR has, is quite easy to get OHKO by some Pokemon. You also limit your opponent from playing Tool cards. This is a very strong attack if you maximize its potential especially since this format has a lot of Special Energy usage. Yes, you may not get Double Turbo Energy every time you need it, but because your playstyle is energy disruption, you can have some time digging for it while your opponent struggles because of your disruption. Then its attack cost can be met easily using Double Turbo Energy and one Psychic energy which can be searched easily using Fog Crystal. Its attack is 160 damage which can 2-turn knock most of the Pokemon out there (some need Choice Belt attached). Its job is simple, to make sure your opponent can't attach and/or have any (special) energy from their hand while damaging them with your attack. The fluffy cotton is finally getting its ground in the top tier of the format. ![]() Bibarel will be the draw engine in some of the Whimsicott VSTAR deck variants. Its attack also forbid the enemy from attaching Special Energy and Tool card from their hand which add more misery to the opponent. Whimsicott VSTAR disrupts the opponent's energy flow by utilizing Crushing Hammer and Fan of Waves. This article is written based on the Brilliant Stars format.
