Hello everyone.     I have seen many people's response to decks posted

and strategies complaining about having too many rares.  I know alot of

beginners come here looking for Idea's.  I also know alot of people

don't feel like pooring a hundred dollars into the game to have a good

deck.  I have put together a good deck using all easily gotten commons

and uncommons. This may look a little like a killer deck report, but

don't worry, your still in TCG tips.

First, here's the deck

Pokemon(20)

4 Erika's Dratini

4 gligar

4 fossil magmar

4 Blaine's ponyta

3 Blaine's rapidash

1 neo 2 igglybuff

Trainers(21)

2 professor oak

2 professor elm

4 bill

3 gust of wind

2 bill's teleporter

4 pluspower

4 energy removal

Energies(19)

4 Double Colorless Energy

9 fire energy

6 fighting energy

this simple, no rare deck is very good.  It is fast, uses strong fast

pokemon, and even has some energy disruption cards.  It is a good deck

to learn to play with, and is also good for the more advanced player.

give it a shot.  You might like it, even if you have alot of rares.

Well, I hope I helped.  If not, sorry for wasting your time

Whatever, Cya.
