I made this deck over a period of time experimenting with different types and
which ones are best to combine and make an incredible team. Well I discovered
those types and It's the best deck I ever built. Here is my stradegy for my
Shellshockers deck.
Electabuzz is to stall while evolving the Squirtle family, Electabuzz is a
great staller, Thundershock has a chance to Paralyze and does 10 damage, and
Thunderpunch (on a successful coin flip) can do 40 damage.....as you can see
Electabuzz is a great staller and can dish out some pretty heavy damage.
Lickitung with high HP's and Kangaskaun will help stall for a while and call
them back to your hand with the Scoop-Ups. And then comes the
Blastoise's......Well, all I can say on this one is "Hydro Pump", "See ya
later".

This Pokemon Tournament was held at Toys R us in Merced, Ca. It was until
6:00 to 7:30. Here are my matches.

Me Vs. Matt (Prerelease gyrados deck with Vaporeons)

Well this match was actually pretty long (Half an Hour) We both started out
with good Pokemon, I evolved my Blastoise's pretty fast and cleaned house. He
killed one of my Blastoise's with Gyrados using Final Beam. After my
Blastoise's were gone my Electabuzz' and Lickitungs played an important role.
I pretty much just played the mind game with him using Scoop-Ups alot and
with one prize left he had 60 damage on Gyrados and I had 80 damage on
Lickitung...Lickitung was Paralyzed due to Gyrados. I used scoop-up and
killed his Gyrados for the win.

Me 1-0

Second match
Me Vs. Matt (Again, he was mad because he lost,besides we were friends)

I played Matt again (because he was mad that he lost last game) I got
Electabuzz out early in the beginning and killed his TR Eevee for the win.
(he was mad)

Me 2-0

Third match
Me Vs. Small kid (Energy Burner deck...Water/Psychic)

I drew my cards and got the whole Blastoise family with 3 water energy and 1
lightening energy. He put Psyduck down and kept using fury swipes but could
only ever manage to just get one heads.....After the last few turns I had my
Blastoise evolved and Powered up..I killed his Psyduck, he didn't have
anymore benched Pokemon so I won.

Me 3-0

Fourth Match
Me Vs. Chris (Fire and rock deck)
I got my Electabuzz and Lickitung out on the bench and did thundershock to
his Charmander and paralyzed him....Next turn I did Thunderpunch and did 40
damage. He didn't have any benched Pokemon so i won (they always end like
this)

Me 4-0

Fifth and Final Match
Me Vs. Gym leader (haymaker deck)

I started out with this one with 2 bills, 1 Squirtle, 1 Electabuzz and 3
Lightening energy. He got Hitmochan out and I had an Electabuzz (slaughter) I
went first and Paralyzed him with thundershock. He put an Electabuzz on his
bench and attached an energy to Hitmochan. I went and got a Wartortle I
evolved immediately and used both of my bills....I got 2 water energy
Blastoise and 1 Lightening Energy. I did Thunderpunch to Hitmochan and did 40
damage to him. He went and did jab to me for 40 damage I evolved Wartortle
into Blastoise and killed his Hitmochan...My prize was a water energy. He
brought up his Electabuzz and did thundershock to me and didn't paralyze me.
I drew a Professor oak and attached 3 Water energy to Blastoise (rain dance)
I used my Professor Oak and got 2 Water energy, Lickitung, Electabuzz,
Scoop-Up, Lightening energy and a kangaskaun. I attached 2 more energy to
Blastoise (rain dance) and did 60 damage to his electabuzz. It all came down
to a coin flip
If he got heads he won and if he got tails I won.......He flipped
tails.......i won and got a free mew Holo and a Prerelease Gyrados.

Me 5-0
