Weather you like it or not I found a GREAT use for Gastly, he can EASILY take down a Charizard, now this is just MY opine, you send out a Gastly if the person you are fighting evolves his Charmelon into Charizard, and then use destiny bond, its that simple!!!! Charizard uses the ONLY move it has, and then it knocks out Gastly, but since you used destiny bond the Charizard gets knocked out with the Gastly. Pretty good use for a pretty bad Pokemon, don't you think????? well first of all destiny bond has to discard 1 psy energy card to use it and charizard has to discard two energy cards. first, destiny bond needs 3 energy cards to use and it would probably die against a charmeleon in 1 turn before you stack up on energy cards unless you get heads in sleeping gas twice. second, u have to discard 1 psy energy card and he/she gotta discard 2 to use fire spin. why would a charizard use fire spin on a weak gastly? it does 70 hp more then needed! and he/she has to waste 2 cards. just retreat charizard for anything like Vulpix. third, who would attack gastly when using destiny bond?!?!?! why would you use destiny bond?!?!?! no one would attack it unless they're VERY dumb and if they don't, you'll just keep on wasting energy cards!! thanks and that's my opion brian chiu
