Hello fellow pokemanics! I haven't sent in a killer deck report for Pojo in a
long time. I mean a looooooooooong time. I've been hangin' around the UBB a
lot.
Well today I'm going to show you guys my PHS deck. PHS stands for
Potpourri-Hay-Sponge. This deck originally was a potpourri, but I have found
better cards to use than Magmar and Mewtwo. I used this at the Pokemon league
today, and it gave me fantastic results. Here's the deck:

Pokemon-13
Rocket's Zapdos-3
Electabuzz-2
Sneasel-3
Gligar-2
Cleffa-1
Erika's Dratini-2

Trainers-28
Bill-4
Oak-4
Lass-2
Comp. Search-2
Scoop Up-2
SER-2
Pluspower-3
ER-3
GOW-2
NGR-2
Misty's Wrath-2
Narrow Gym-1

Energy-18
Lightning-10
Darkness-4
Rainbow-2
DCE-2

The strategy of this deck is pretty simple. Beatdown. Get either Sneasel
ready for beat up on turn 2 or R. Zapdos ready for electroburn on turn 3. It
all depends on the opening hand really.

Match 1: a fire deck consisting Charizard
I won the coin flip and started out with a Gligar as active and Sneasel on
the bench. I oaked, billed, and wrathed. He couldn't handle my second turn
beating up Sneasel and couldn't deal with my speed. He ran out of pokemon on
turn 4 and I won.
1-0

Match 2: a grass deck using Ariados
My next match proved to be a better opponent than the last, but he still
couldn't hold off my speed. I chewed up a lot of my deck on the first turn,
and got Sneasel ready for Beat Up. He used Erika's Bulbasaur and slowed my
down with sleep, but I managed to flip through the coin flip and began to
beat him up. Sometime in the middle of our match, he managed to get Erika's
Ivysaur out, slowing me down a bit. But by then I had a fully charged
Rocket's Zapdos so I Electroburned taking my third prize...and his last
pokemon.
2-0

Props
Props for my deck, beating up with high speed
For everyone who traded me english equivalent of the cards I needed for the
STS
For Issac having that Misty's Wrath
For the Gym Leader for giving us 40 points if we won
For my 2 Gym Challenge packs, which both had 2 holos
For the pile of cards on the floor in the booster aisle, I took(bad boy!)

Slops
Everyone who played, for not having a competive deck
Me, for spending too much time trading and not battling
My foolishness for trading away valuable cards for broken cards...wait, is
that a props?

Thanks for reading my report! And Pojo, keep up the great work!
