Hello to all the Poke maniacs out there it's
Special K! I recently finished
                           making a deck and went to the League in
Stratford at ToyWorks on May 16th,
                           where it performedd really well. Its 2 big
hitters are Hitmonchan and
                           Electabuzz, so I named it Thunder Jab.


                           Thunder-Jab

                           Electabuzz x 4 -Did somebody say Thunder
punch . Thunder punch can do 40
                           damage in 1 shot . If I was going vs. a
Rain-Dance deck Buzz would knock out
                           Blastoise in 2 shots.

                           Hitmonchan x 4 -Hitmonchan's Jab can do 20
damage with one energy. For 2
                           more energy's you could do a 40 attack. With
a high 70 hp this card made it to
                           my top 10.

                           Scyther x 4 -Scyther with a 30 attack also
has a resistance to Fighting. Scyther
                           can also take out some water and fighting
decks with that ability.

                           4 Energy Removal- Discard an energy card from
one of your opponent's
                           Pokemon.

                           4 Super Energy Removal-Discard 2 energy cards
from one of your opponent's
                           Pokemon.

                           4 Pluspower-Does 10 extra damage to your
opponent's Pokemon. Just enough
                           to knock out a Pokemon and get your next (or
last!) prize card.

                           4 Bill - In terms of cards, It's like getting
your next 2 turns early.

                           3 Potion-Let your Pokemon live until another
turn.

                           2 Gust of Wind-Take out the strong and put in
the weak.

                           1 Gambler- I don't normally like to take
chances on a coin but if heads you get
                           a good hand.

                           12 Lightning energy
                           12 Fighting energy
                           4 Double Colorless energy

                           Object:
                           Deal out as much damage in a short amount of
time as you can.


                           Match 1 vs. Steve with Oddish(Rocket)/Abra
Deck
                           I faced Steve before and his deck killed mine
but this time I would win. I start
                           with a god hand of 2 Hitmonchans,2 Potions,
and the rest energy. I win the flip
                           and put out Hitmonchan and him an
Oddish(Rocket)and Abra on the bench. I
                           draw a Pluspower, attach energy under
Hitmonchan and do Jab with a
                           Pluspower for a prize(Gust of Wind). He sends
out Abra and puts another
                           Oddish down. He attachs an energy to Abra and
attacks with Psyshock with a

another prize(Potion). He sends out
                           Abra and evolves into Kadabra. He put an
energy under Kadabra. I draw a Bill
                           and use it to get an Energy Removal and an
Electabuzz. I use Energy Removal
                           on Kadabra, put an energy under and attack
with Special Punch. He draws and
                           puts down a Chansey, which evolves into
Alakazam. He puts an energy under
                           and uses Damage Swap, and puts all the damage
on Chansey. I draw Energy
                           Removal which I use, then I attack with
Special Punch. He Swaps the damage
                           and puts an energy under. I draw Super Energy
