Yay, I am back home, and have color =D. Anyways, I like Kabutops in MF, lemme help you tweak it and make it perfect!

First we have the Pokemon: Drop Brock's Lickitung, he just doesn't belong in this deck. Too slow, and too high of a retreat cost. Drop the Murkrows as well, they don't fit very well either. Add another Rocket's Hitmonchan. If you play Fighting energy, you HAVE to play Chan. He is just too good with Focus Band. Too counter Kabutops' weakness to Grass we will play 2 Skarmory. Skarmory with 2-4 Metal against any deck but fire = cool. Heads on Steel Wing with 3 Metal energy means Skarmory resists 60 damage. Have fun trying to hurt him. Add another Kabutops, you need three in order to get the evolution line out faster. Add 2 Gligar, Gligar is another cool Fighting Pokemon. Poisoning Gatrs and Typhlosion is fun, it also gets by Giovanni's Machamp. And finally lets get 2 Discovery Smeargle. Smeargle is a very powerful card in this format. He has several uses in this format, and can be a game saver.

Next we have energy: Drop the Darkness for Metal energy to power Skarmory. Metal energy also works great with Kabutops. Drop 2 Fighting, and add 1 Recycle.

And finally we have the Trainers: Drop 1 Wrath, drop the Erika, drop the Secret Mission. You have too much card drawing/discarding. Lets get 4 Professor Elm in here, he's needed! Drop the Traps, just too risky to play. Lets drop RSA, we need more room for more important stuff to place in this deck. And finally drop a NGR, 3 just isn't needed. When building MF Decks choose only cards that will serve a DEFINITE and USEFUL purpose nearly 95% of the time. Lets add in 3 Focus Band. Its just a great card with Rocket's Hitmonchan, can be a game saver. Also we will add in 2 Gold Berry, this is a nice healing card. And finally lets add in two Ecogyms just to counter Chaos Gym, and limit the room for Slowkings and stuff on the Bench. So here is your finalized deck!
