Hi Chipmunk,

I have made a bunch of decks because I have enough cards for them, but I am
getting to like this one. Just don't send me to THRASHFEST dude cuz I hope 
to
maintain my dignity. Here it is:

3 oddish
2 gloom
1 vileplume
2 scyther
3 abra
2 kadabra
1 alakazam
2 mr mime
2 jynx
2 chansey
2 clefairy
1 clefable
2 pokemon trader
1 computer search
2 energy removal
1 super energy removal
2 gust of wind
3 bill
2 professor oak
11 grass energy
13 psychic energy

OK, this deck has so many different ways to work that no one strategy can
COMPLETELY destroy me. I can stall like a mother with my alakazam, 
vileplume,
  chanseys, and mr mimes. plus, I can deal some moderate damage with 
scyther,
jynx, and clefable. I put in some energy removal cards to help in case
someone pulls a charizard or zapdos or some big time energy pokemon. the
gusts are pretty much a necessity in any deck in my opinion. I am not sure
how this would fare in a big tourney, so I'm sending it to you before it's
too late. Hopefully you can help me and tell me how I would do (decent, 
good,
or bad). Thanks Chipmunk!!! Oh yeah, I know about the 4-2-1 rule on 
families,
but I didn't have room, and I wasn't sure what I could take out of my deck,
so maybe you can help with that too. Thanks!!

You are a regular contributar to my garage, so I know that I repeat many 
things over and over, like the families and focusing and such.  So I'll just 
say that the BASICS need to be handled better.  That way I don't keep 
writing about the same BS over and over.
   The deck definatly has many roads to victory, which isn't that bad.  You 
need more energy, though.  Since you are playing Scyther, throw in some D.C. 
energy.  2nd turn 60 damage is fun.  Trust me.
  You definately need to choose with your trainers, though.  You have so 
many different types, you don't get to put in alot in your deck.  First, you 
don't need the search.  You'll most likely be searching for a pokemon, so 
another Trader will work better.  Next, you need to decide if you are going 
to play energy removal or not.  3 energy removal cards really won't help.
   As for your pokemon, Clefable is ok, but you might need to find a pokemon 
to take out to make more room.  With my tastes, I would either take out the 
Clefairy family or the Jynx, because the rest of the pokemon work well 
inside the deck.  With some tweaking, this deck should do well in a tourny 
enviroment.
