TJ’s Tanning Booth


-TJ Says- Hello to everyone! ;D Time for my second
fix… so, let’s get started… ;x
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Original
First, I want to say that I know that this deck has
too many cards. I have 74. I don't know what to
remove. My strategy comes after my cards.  Please
help!!!


Pokemon: 20 (12 fire 7 fighting)


3x Grolithe 
2x Arcanine 
2x Vulpix 
2x Ninetales 
3x Magmar (fossil)


1x Hitmonchan
3x Machop
2x Machoke
1x Machamp (base)


Energy(27) 


16x Fire Energy
11x Fighting Energy


Trainers (27)


4x Energy Search
4x Energy Ark
4x Energy Retrieval
1x Professor Oak
2x Professor Elm
1x Pokemon Trader
1x Computer Search
2x Poke Ball
3x Plus Power
3x Recycle
2x Bill


My strategy is basically to stall with magmar or
Hitmonchan, while I build up a Ninetales, Arcanine, or
Machamp on my Bench.  I put in the Energy searches and
arks to get as many energies as possible as fast as
possible.


Thanks for your help!

The Fix
 
-TJ’s First Thoughts- 74 Cards! O_o Ugh… ;x Well… Here
we go, I guess…


-Pokemon- First off, drop all of your Fighting
Pokemon. Also take out your Ninetales line. Add 3
Cleffa, 2 Igglybuff, and 2 Scyther. Add a 3rd Arcanine
too. That is it here! ;x


-Trainers- Add 3 Oak, and take away your Elm’s. Also
take away all 4 Energy Searches, Ark’s, and Retrievals
to add 2 Nightly Garbage Runs, 2 more Computer Search,
and 4 Item Finder. Add 3 Lass for the Cleffa/Lass
combo (VERY effective first turn). Remove your
Pokeball’s, Recycle’s and your lone Pokemon Trader.
Add 3 Gold Berry, 2 Gust of Winds, and 2 Switch’s (for
those bad gusted Arcanines… ;x). Take away your 2 Bill
and 3 Pluspower’s (Arcanine will kill just about
anyone with one hit fully powered) and add 2 Sprout
Tower, 2 Energy Removal’s and 2 Super Energy Removals.
That’s all for the trainers. ;P


-Energy- Energy… Take away all of your Fighting
Energy, and add 3 Metal Energy and 3 Double Colorless.
Also take 7 Fire Energy back. That’s it… The deck
should look like this:
