What should I do? Here is my deck. Pokemon: 4 Squirtles 2 Wartortles 1 Blastoise 4 Poliwag 2 Poliwhirl 1 Poliwrath 2 Magikarp 1 Gyrados 3 Seel 2 Dewgong 1 Clefairy Energy: 20 Water Energy Trainers: 4 Bill 2 Super Potion 3 Defenders 1 Item Finder 4 Energy Removal 2 Super Energy Removal 2 Pokemon Breeder 1 Pokemon Trader 1 Computer Search -------- Ahhh. A raindance deck. At least, that's what this deck looks like. I think the pojo has a finely tuned version of that deck. But here is some help for making yours better. First, your going to need to get rid of some useless cards. The Defenders and Super Potions need to be taken out. Yes, they maybe good a couple of instances, but a raindance deck is about speed. If you go fast enough, you don't need to worry about protecting your pokemon. Also, take out Clefairy. Your other pokemon will be doing enough damage as it is. Next, you need Oaks. The object of a raindance deck is to get Blastoise out, and then Oak, and throw all the water energy down. That also means you need somemore water energy. I would also try to throw in another Blastoise, so that if one dies on accident, you'll have another for back-up. Throw in more traders to get the Blastoise out faster, and your deck should be up and running. _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.
