Hey, this is a long time fan, first time poster, Ax
Wolf.  The 4 battles bellow occur on two days the 20 &
27 because I didn't fight much the 20th or 27th.  This
deck has never failed me (maybe because I have my luck
charm, Charmander, with me every battle).  Please post
this deck.

CARDS:
Pokemon:
4  Squirtle (Base)
2  Dark Wartortle (TR)

2  Dark Blastoise (TR)
1  Blastoise (Base)

2  Articuno (Fossil)
2  Lapras (Fossil)
1  Aerodactyl (Fossil)

Trainers:

2  Pokemon Breeder
3  Energy Search
2  Potion
4  Bill
1  Pokedex
2  Mysterious Fossil
3  Switch

Energy:
22 Water
1  Full Heal (Only to be used in Extreme conditions)

Strategy:
Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill, & Pokedex to Keep the Energy
Flowing(with help from Energy Search), get out Dark
Blastoise, and get Blastoise.  Stall while pumping up
Lapras, Articuno, and Dark Blastoise.  Of course you
put in the final blows with these pokemon.

Round 1:May 20
Me Vs. Friend, Jeremy w/ Magmar's Massive Massacure
He sends out Charmander while I send out Squirtle(I
have a Blastoise, Aerodactyl, and Water Energies in my
hand).  We flip a coin and He won it(I think).  Oh,
well, I bubble his Charmander w/Paralyse but he
retaliates and evolves him to Charmeleon and lays down
Blaine's Magmar(translation at bottom).  I pick up a
Pokemon Breeder 4 turns later, Evolve Squirtle to
Blastoise and put 2 Water Enerrgies down and knock him
out.  Out comes his Blaine's Magmar w/1 Fire on him.
He sets down another Blaine's Magmar and use Fire
Breath with extra damage.  Blastoise Knocks him out
and the next turn knocks out his other Blaine's
Magmar.  He has no more Bench Pokemon so I win.

Round 2:May 20
Me Vs. Same person as R1
He sets down 2 Blaine's Magmar and I send out my only
Basic Pokemon, Squirtle(I have a Blastoise, Full Heal
Energy, and 4 Water in my hand).  He wins the coin
flip.  He lays a Fire Energy on his Active B's Mag and
Fire Breath w/o extra damage.  I get lucky and Draw a
Pokemon Breeder.  I lay down a Water and Squirtle
gives B's Mag a Bubble w/Paralyse.  He adds a Fire
energy to Active B's Mag and says "Done".  I draw a
card and Evolve Squirtle into Blastoise, Rain Dance 2
Water to Blast and Hydro Pump for the KO.
Prize=Lapras.  He has his other B's Mag ready with 1
Fire and he Flame Breaths w/extra damage.  I see no
point in putting down lapras so I just Hydro Pump for
the win(No Bench again)

Round 3:May 27
Me Vs. Friends younger Brother, Victor. w/Vending
Sandslash Deck
He is good Trainer, though he still needs a bit of
work.  I know he has a fighting deck so I send out my
Aricuno, and Bench Squirtle(I have a Blastoise, Energy
Search, and Waters in my hand).  He has a Rocket
Diglett Active no Bench.  I say to myself, "Self, this
could be one of those BORING fights where he has no
bench pokemon left."  He wins the flip and puts down a
Fighting down.  He Digs Under and does 10 damage to
Squirtle.  I draw a squirtle and lay him down.  Put a
Water on Arituno and end my turn.  He sets down
another Rocket Diglett, puts a Fighting on it and Digs
Under for 10 damage to Squirtle #1.  Next turn I
Energy Search and Put down a Water on Squirtle #2.  He
digs under for 10 damage on Squirtle #1 after setting
down a Mysterious Fossil.  I draw a Pokemon Breeder
and evolve Squirtle #1 to Blastoise.  I place an Water
on Aricuno and Rain Dance another on Aricuno and 1 on
my Squirtle.  I Freeze Dry him w/o Pralyse and he digs
under for 10 damage to Squirtle.  After a few turns I
defeated his 2 Rocket Diglett, Squirtle went through
Dark Wartortle to Dark Blastoise, and he had evolved
his Fossil to Kabuto.  Victor's turn:  he sets a
Fighting and Defender on Kabuto.  I know he is hoping
to get a basic pokemon soon.  I have no more cards in
my hand so to use Arti's Blizzard so I Freeze Dry w/o
Paralyse or Damage.  He scratches for 0 damage.  I do
10 damage each turn, for 3 turns, after that w/o
getting any energies from my deck.  All in all I
defeated Vic's Kabuto and he has no bench.  (Now I
know that no bench can be exciting.)

Round 4:May 27
Me Vs. Kid w/ Dark Weezing Deck
This was a simple one.  He has out his Grimer and I
have my Squirtle.  After a few turns I have out a Dark
Blastoise and Faint his only pokemon and he has no
bench.  (Can I take back what I wrote on Round 3?)
