Level Ball Format

Welcome to the Level Ball Format.

A fun deck-building puzzle and a way to highlight some under-utilised cards all focussed around Pokemon with 90HP or less!

Rules

You may only use Pokemon with 90HP or less.

You cannot use Rule-Box or ACE SPECs cards.

You may only use 3 cards of the same name in your deck (instead of the usual 4).

You may only use cards indicated from F-On (Scarlet and Violet onwards)

Key Type Support

Grass

Grass type benefits from having access to some of the best type-specific ball search in Bug Catching Set, making it one of the more consistent types in the format.

Fire

Fire type decks are able to use the Supporter Mela, helping them reload attackers quickly. In a format without much acceleration, this can be important for keeping the tempo of the game in your favour.

Water

Calamitous Snowy Mountain is the perfect stadium for Water type decks as they have plenty of Pokemon that like to deal bench damage and spread counters on the opponent's board.

Lightning

Electric Generator is just as strong in the Level Ball Format as it is in the Standard Format, allowing fast paced strategies to be the key to success with Lightning Types.

Psychic

The Psychic Type has some great healing in Moonlit Hill, which in turn works perfectly with the Supporter Tulip to recover any Psychic Energy and Pokemon that may be in the Discard Pile.

Fighting

Fighting Pokemon can either work on being really bulky with the Rock Chestplate Tool card, making them very hard to KO, or disruptive with the Calamitous Wasteland Stadium locking things in your opponent's Active Spot.

Darkness

Another type with great acceleration is Darkness, harnessing Janine's Secret Art to power up 2 Darkness Pokemon at once!

Metal

Metal Pokemon maintain their tanky nature with the Full Metal Lab Stadium. This can make spread strategies particularly difficult to play against wide Metal Benches.
