Lately

Lately, I have been using 2 wigglytuff in my deck, and I have come to believe that wigglytuff is perhaps one of the most powerful cards in the game.

Wigglytuff has a powerful pre-evolution, jiggly puff

Ok, now jiggly is obviously a strong basic. He can do either attack on turn one (if you get a double colorless), and he has high hp (even though he's not in the popular group with scyther and hitmonchan). Jigglypuff has the common weakness/resistance of colorless, and low retreat cost. He, actually is not a bad basic. But the great thing about this evolution is that they have step-up attacks.

your bench, this attack does

Now, eighty hp is pretty high. And being colorless he goes in any deck. And although he does need basics to do damage, what deck doesn't use basics? He is awesome. Jigglypuff can do either attack on the first turn, and then add 1 (or two) energy and evolve. I play wiggly, and you will find that he is one hard guy to take out. He also has the advantage of only being a stage one. You should definitely try out this evolution. He can take numerous hits from some of the most popular cards, works well with super potion, plus power, and Challenge!. There are many trainers that compliment him, and would work well with him. Any trainer that get's you basics will work. Also, wigglytuff works in any speed deck. Because he is colorless, one DCE and an energy will pump him up, and he can do good damage. But other heavy hitters like machamp, Nidoking, and Pinsir have fallen out of tournament play because they need specific energy (usually 4, and 3 of them are elemental). I am sure that if you play wigglytuff you will fall in love with him.
