I have noticed that a lot of you have mentioned that Rain Dance will be going
down because of Fossil. Actually, it will rise from the ashes and become good
once again. All because of one card: Lapras. Rain Dance's biggest problem was
Mr. Mime before Fossil came out. Another big problem was the fact that it's
basic were too weak, like Magikarp. Both problems are fixed, the second one by
Articuno. These two cards will revive Rain Dance, because of Lapras's Confuse
Ray, disabling any problematic Mr. Mimes. Articuno's non-weakness to Lightning
will also be very beneficial to the Rain Dance cause. For all of you who need
something to go by, here's a rough decklist:

Team Rocket's Fossil Raindance Comeback
4 Squirtle
3 Blastoise
4 Lapras
4 Articuno

4 Bill
4 Professor Oak
4 Pokemon Breeder
4 Computer Search
3 Pokemon Trader
4 PlusPower (For all those Hitmonchans, Electabuzzes, and Scythers
running                             around. Just use with a fully-charged
Blastoise.)

22 Water Energy

Believe me, this is the deck that will bring back Rain Dance. Just get out that
Blastoise on the second turn and kick butt with Articuno. Lapras is used as a
starter or to confuse speed bumps like Aerodactyl, Muk, and Mr. Mime. Gust of
Winds may be added if the deck can't take care of those already. Have fun!
