My deck is called "Winter", it's a water deck(duh). The strategy for this deck is to attack the opponent with stage 1 pokemon that do more than 10 damage. Stage two pokemon like poliwrath and blastoise take too long to evolve and power-up. I have beaten my freinds more than 85% of the time with this deck. I am still making some improvements and changes on this deck. Right now it is still very good. One of my freinds won't even play me because he knows he'll lose. The only person that has beaten me every time I play them is my freind Charles, the guy who made the Mach3 deck on this page. His deck is also extremely good. It's pretty much the best deck at my school(mine is one of the top ones too).
 
    A guy in the strategy section said that "19 trainers is just too much". That's just a bunch of bull........ My deck is awesome and it has 19 trainers. He also says that "all the succesfull decks he's seen run about 25 or closer to 30 energy. More bull........... My deck has 21 energy and I always have even more than I need.
 
Anyways, here's the deck:
 
2xmagikarp
1xgyarados
3xseel
2xdewgong
2xsquirtle
2xwartortle
2xstaryu
1xstarmie
3xpoliwag
2xpoliwhirl
3xsuper potion
3xpotion
3xenergy removal
2xenergy retrieval
2xbill
1xgust of wind
1xpokedex
1xdefender
1xclefairy doll
1xcomputer search(in my opinion, the best trainer card)
1xitem finder
21xwater energy
  -60 card deck-
 
 
    Trainer card tips: only use clefairy doll when you have energy in your hand to put on a pokemon. Use bill when you have less than seven cards in your hand. Try to use two or three energy removals at a time, then if your oppnent has the same type of energy you took off, thay can't replace it in one turn then attack you as usual. If you use defender, make  sure your pokemon still wouldn't die with defender on it(duh).
