                        CHANSEY, THE MISUNDERSTOOD POKEMON
 
 
    I have a fighting deck with a Chansey. I was battling my friend today and my Chansey was fighting for a really long time. If you have a Chansey in your deck, put more pokemon centers in your deck. Chansey is the best card out there. He has 120 Hp, the most for any basic pokemon, probably ever. If you use a Chansey, you can keep him in there to stall and build up your benched pokemon, using scoop ups and pokemon centers to heal your Chansey. When your ready, you could even use double-edge to kill as many of your opponents as possible before killing all of your opponents pokemon with the pokemon on your bench. Chansey is better than even Charizard in many ways. It can withstand a fire spin, it has just as many Hp and it is a basic pokemon, by the time Charizard is all the way evolved and powered up, it's usually dead (unless you power it up on the bench). "What about double-edge? It does 80 damage to Chansey," You ask. Well, who says you have to attack. My fighting deck uses Chansey as a wall before bringing out both my Machamps, followed by both my Dragonairs. The opponent can't stand that kind of beating. As my friend said in the rain storm deck (in the April ' 99 decks), my deck has never lost, thanks to my Chansey. If you want to see my deck, it is the Mach 3 deck on the April ' 99 decks.
