Well, This is my first time sending a deck to pojo (which by the way is the greatest Pokémon site on the net). I made this deck mainly because I got tired of winning with my other two decks - Slowking/Sneasel and Steelix/Chansey. The place where I play is always packed with people but only about half play Pokémon. I will never convert to Z (even though it's the last half of my nickname) or Magic. Anyways, the idea of the deck is to use status effects, many basics, and free retreat. It's a really good deck from experience. I would give it a 5.4 on the Z scale (The Z scale starts at 2 and goes to 6). If you want to use this deck, go ahead. Get a zubat on the bench as fast as possible and use status effects to stall the opponent until you get the all-so-powerfull Crobat out. Email me if you have any suggestions or just want to talk Pokémon at TheZLemieux@aol.com

Evil Intentions

Pokémon
     3 Cleffa (Genisis)
     3 Ditto (Fossil)
     3 Oddish (Rocket)
     3 Scyther (Jungle)
     1 Scyther (Discovery)
     4 Zubat (Revelations)
     3 Golbat (Revelations)
     3 Crobat (Revelations)
Trainers
     2 Computer Search
     4 Energy Removal
     1 Focus Band
     1 Gust of Wind
     3 Pokémon Breeder
     1 Professor Elm
     4 Super Energy Removal
Energy
     14 Grass Energy
     4   Recycle Energy
     3   Double Colorless Energy

I really wanted to add a fourth Crobat but I can't seem to think of what to get rid of. The removals are extremely effective and stall for the bat to grow and make retreating more difficult for the opponent.

Tournament

Round 1 VS Random deck (Sneasel, Scyther, Chansey, Cleffa, Skarmony)
At first we both had two scythers up front. I got first turn and got the needed cleffa, retreated for free and eeked. Got what I needed, bat grew on bench and killed him by taking all the prizes(he got one when I used a Ditto Double Edge on Chansey).

Round 2 VS Discovery Butterfree/Kangashkan deck
I killed this deck. It looked bad at first but I managed to kill it with Bat and status aliments. By the time he had enough energy to retreat/attack with Kan it was KOed by poisin.

Round 3 VS Entei/Ho-oh deck
Looked bad, but he got an unfavorable hand and I killed a lone Entei for the win.

Final Round VS Brothers Steel Chansey\Steelix deck
He had no ecogym and I had 8 removals. Do the math yourself. I killed this deck and won the tourney. Got an unopened theme deck for E ( : / ). Whatever it was fun.
