Hello! It is Johnny/thegreatcell once again. First off, THIS IS NOT JUNK
MAIL! THIS IS A REAL STRATEGY (Have I calmed down now?)!  Until now I have
written on specific cards which make your game a nightmare or a euphoria, but
now I will try something completely unique. For the first time ever, I have a
questionaire for everyone who reads this. This exam is meant to show you what
kind of deck would be best suited for you. The way the test is scored is very
simple, which ever letter you pick most will be the best deck for you. To see
what each letter means, look at my handy legend (Right above the
questionaire). Enjoy and discover what type of deck is suited for you!

LEGEND:
H: haymaker deck
S&W: Sneasel & Wigglytuff deck
R: raindance deck
T1: trapper deck 1 (trainer and hand disruption)
T2: trapper deck 2 (Murkrow and forretress)
F: fun deck
N: no answer picked

Johnny's pokemon deck preference test

1: Which of these words best suits you?

H: fast
S&W: furious
R: Strong
T1: manipulative
T2: clever
F: fun
N: none of the above

2: If you could put 2 pokemon in a deck, what would they be?

H: Scyther and electabuzz
S&W: sneasel and wigglytuff
R: Blastoise and misty's poliwhirl
T1: dark vileplume and slowking
T2: murkrow and forretress
F: Misty's psyduck and neo discovery scyther
N: I would like to choose my own pokemon, thank you very much (in a very
sarcastic tone).

3: If you have read my other reports, which one do you like best?

H: I would say Small and Tough Basic Pokemon.
S&W: Compared to my reports Johnny, your reports are really a guy saying "can
you give me a HAM AND CHEESE SAMICH (sandwich)???"
R: I hate both of your reports because they both bashed a lot of water
pokemon!
T1: I enjoyed worst 25 because it shed light on some major disruption in the
PTCG world (no, not my trainer disruption).
T2: I think the people who answered F are suck-ups.
F: I liked both of them!!
N: I think you are a bum in washington D.C. saying "can I have a HAM AND
CHEESE SAMICH???"

4:What kind of card do you like best?

H: broken haymakers.
S&W: broken cards in general.
R: Any pokemon who benefits thanks to the raindance pokemon power.
T1: Trainer disruption cards! Duh!
T2: Cards which make it so that it is a lot harder to retreat without a
sacrifice.
F: Cards which have entirely random and exciting effects.
N: I like my own specialized way to play.

5: At your local pokemon league, which person do you rush to play against?

H: As long as I get over 150 points a session, I am OK against whoever I play.
S&W: I think the league is for losers, so I only go to the tournaments to
rake in the prizes.
R: The 8th grade girl with the water deck.
T1: The 20+ year old guy with the psychic deck.
T2: The guy with the forretress deck.
F: I enjoy playing against everyone!
N: Why rush and why play when you can trade?

6: What is your I.Q.?

H: 80-140
S&W: I thought we were talking about what kind of pokemon deck I like.
R: Isn't a brain just a simple blob in your head?
T1: Well over 150.
T2: Everything about me is classified.
F: You know Johnny, your probably one of the only people at this site who
constantly checks his I.Q. every week.
N: Don't know.

OK! Now that you have finished answering all of the questions on the sheet,
check to see which deck would be best suited for you!

haymaker decks: You have the need for speed. You want to be tougher than your
rival very early in the game. You put pokemon with over 60 HP in your deck
(Like scyther. buzz and rocket's zap) and they are commonly basics. You also
put trainers like bill, prof. oak and prof. elm in your deck to make it all
the more easier. The point is if you have the need for speed, a haymaker is
what you need.

sneasel/wigglytuff decks: Wiggly and sneasel have amazing attack strength  
and currently rule the PTCG envirenment. In this kind of deck sneasel lives
up to his bad boy attitude while wigglytuff does the wave of death! If you
want some tough contenders who really put the hurt on the enemy, this deck is
up your darkness alley!

Raindance decks: Unlike the people who love the decks above, you prefer the
classic blastoise deck.
The raindance power is a great combo with misty's poliwhirl because if it had
10 water energies on it, the attack could do 130 damage! In this deck you
prefer pokemon breeders over wartortles because the breeders are all the more
quicker. If you like this deck, I suggest you go down to the pool today!

Trapper 1: Cards like rocket's sneak attack and other  trainer annihilating
trainers are your delight. Also you better not forget slowking, noctowl and
dark vileplume because they can stop the illegal flow of trainer cards. If
your a sneak, for this deck, take a peek.

Trapper 2: Though it has the same name, the trap approach to #2 is the real
way to trap. Rocket's training gym and murkrow make it all the more
challenging to retreat, while forretress even puts the hurt on the enemy if
they retreat. If you are sick of freebie retreaties then you need this deck.

Fun deck: All your life you never cared about winning and losing, just having
fun! Likewise, you don't care that you lose or win in a game of pokemon, just
as long as you get that misty's psyduck (common) out. Cards in these decks
make the game more enjoyable thanks to random effects and damage and even a
little quiz or 2 (or 3). For overall enjoyment, choose this deck.

none of the above: Turns out you think that the game might be destroyed by
cards such as sneasel, so you rebel from the heartless system and make your
own customized deck for your own enjoment.
To you guys I hope that sneasel is destroyed by some magical card in the
future.

If this showed you what deck you like, then look at the other strategies on
this site because this strategy just helps a begginer get started, while the
other strategies involve more complexed matters.
Once again, this is Johnny logging off.
