Deck Fix
~~~~~~~~

Deck Focus
   Okay, there's a slight problem here. If you want this deck to be competitive, you won't be able to run a stage 2 evolution AND a stage 1 evolution. Since the focus seems to be on status effects, Venemoth is probably a bit better suited for this. The focus on status effects is good, but your deck's a little too strung out to be as effective as possible.

Pokemon
   First, as I said before, drop all the nido line. Add a Venemoth to increase your consistancy, and another magmar as well. Now, since your focus is on status effects, rocket's scyther is a good choice. It doesn't really have status effects, but Blinding Scythe acts as one like magmar's smokescreen. So add 4 of these :)

Energy
   Take out 8 Grass Energy and add in 2 Fire Energy.

Trainers
   First of all, this will be the area that needs the most work. Start by taking out the Pokemon Breeder since it's of no use. Take out an NGR since you really don't need em that much, but they're nice to prevent decking so you can keep most in. Add in 4 Computer Search, 4 Pluspower, 3 Sneak Attack, and 2 Scoop Up. This'll speed your deck up a bunch, and add a bit of healing with the scoop ups.
