Hey pojo. I came up with this
deck off the top of my head, and I played it at a tournament on Saturday, May
29th. I call it "The Great Combo-deck!" because that's just what it
is. A deck with the ultimate pokemon combo. Maybe its been made before I did,
but I've never seen it. It's a grass-psychic deck concentrating on Venusaur and
Alakazam.
10 Grass Energy
7 Psychic Energy
2 Double Colorless
Energy
4 Chansey
4 Bulbasaur - 3 Ivysaur - 2
Venusaur
4 Abra- 3 Kadabra- 2
Alakazam
4 Bill - 3 Professor
Oak
3 Energy Removal - 1 Super Energy
Removal
4 Pokemon Center
1 Energy Retrieval
2 Pokemon Trader
1 Computer Search
The deck basically
works like this: You let Chansey take damage while you build your guys up on the
bench. Lay nothing on Chansey if you have anything in the back(other then
chansey) and pokemon center when chansey gets in trouble. Use Venusaur or
Alakazam to transfer energy and damage to pokemon in order to use pokemon center
to its fullest. Do damage with either your chanseys, venusaurs, or alakazams- or
kadabra or ivysaur, even. So I played in a small tournament at the KGB with
it(everyone was not there cuz it starts at 10:00 A.M., and it was on Memorial
Day weekend). There were three rounds to the finals, cuz there was only 8 of
us.
ROUND ONE: I played against Tony-
don't know his last name. He was playing a straight grass deck, his
"POISON" deck.
GAME ONE: I quickly got a Venusaur
and multiple grass energy and pokemon centers. Easily won.
GAME TWO: Got Alakazam this time,
and got some pyschic energies. I got lucky both games- or maybe the deck is
good? =)
ROUND TWO: Against Andrew Ragsdale-
I don't even know why he was there- he wasn't even planning on being in the
tournament. But we all convinced him to play cuz we needed eight. He had a bunch
of cards, but nothing good. So we all lent him some stuff to give him an ok
deck.
GAME ONE: Lack of experience cost
him the game. He made too many player errors, even though he could have beaten
me had he played the deck correctly.
GAME TWO: Again, he lost because he
wasn't a very good player. I feel sorry for him, but he's 0-2 now and can't go
to the finals no matter what.
ROUND THREE: Playing some little
kid, I don't know his name... but he was 2-0 (NEVER UNDERESTIMATE LITTLE KIDS-
THEY SURPRISE ME ALL THE TIME!). He was playing straight colorless- BUT he had
four Clefairy, a big mistake. He had Farfetch'd, Dragonaire, and Chansey- my
advice to him was to lose the clefairys and add some good trainers.
GAME ONE: Chansey versus Chansey-
this sucks. Anyway I double edge then so does he, we both die and go to sudden
death. I win because i drew a prize with a quick double edge on his farfetch'd!
(I went first).
GAME TWO: Hmm Abra versus
Farfetch'd, he goes first... leek slap FAILS! Hurray! I parylize him. He slaps
down a double colorless. I play another energy, energy removal the double
colorless, and hit him again. I don't parylize. He lays ANOTHER double colorless
and wins because I didn't evolve into Kadabra- bad move by me. I tend to rely on
coin flips sometimes, I should try not to.
GAME THREE: Wow, Chansey versus
Chansey again. He can't keep up with me cuz of a lack of energy, I win with a
double edge and a kadabra smack. Good match, little man!
THE FINALS: Against another 3-0
guy, Luke something. He was playing a mirror of my old deck, basic beatdown.
Crap, I hate it when I see that deck- its one of the decks that actually beats
up mine.
GAME ONE: Piece of trash Hitmonchan
breaks through my Chansey barrier pretty quick, and tears up the rest of my
losers. >:-(
GAME TWO: Farfetch'd has a tougher
time adjusting to my Chansey with no double colorless energy and a failed leek
slap. I win with Venusaur.
GAME THREE: I got out my combo on
the third turn, and Alakazam and a Venusaur on the bench, Venusaur with three
energy. Easy game.
I won the tournament, and I had
alot of fun doing it. I'll probably use the same deck next week. C ya
pojo!
