Dark Alakazam is one of my favorite cards.  I put him in the category: Most Useful Cards with Clefairy and Clefable for Metronome.  I love that attack especially if I'm up against a Charizard.  Copy a 100 damage attack for 1 energy!  AIn't that awesome?
    Ok.  Back to Alakazam.  His Teleport Blast is awesome.  It's jsut like a Switch card and you can save space instead of filling up all your slots with Switches.  And you deal out 30 damage.  No Switch card does that.  It's great if you're low on hit points and you have a fully loaded great POkemon on your bench.
    Mind Shock's great too even though you don't apply weakness but you don't apply resistance either so bye-bye Wiggly.  Dark Alakazam is the best Psy card to go up against a Wiggly deck.  You can beat him in just 2 hits so you'll just pop that fat balloon Wiggly-stuff. 
    Even though his HP is a little low for a stage 2 Pokemon he is in my box with all the good 'uns like Scyther and Electabuzz and the Movie Promo Mewtwo and Promo Mew.  Email me if you disagree with anything I said.
