Subject: TR Mankey

    Suddenly, a figure next to aPokemon appears out of thin air
Figure: Hello Pokemaniacs.  It is I, Shaun.  Instead of sending messages in secrecy, I have finally decided to show myself in person.  I'm willing to bet that most of you out there are wondering who my Pokemon is.  Well, allow me to introduce...Porygon!
Porygon: Greetings.  Today on the agenda is is the new TR Mankey.  So, without any more introductions, let's go over TR Mankey.
    Porygon uses his Psychic Powers to create an image of the TR Mankey card.
 
Mankey
Basic Pokemon
40 HP
Type: Fighting
Weakness: Psychic
Resistance: None
Retreat Cost: None
C Mischief: Shuffle your opponent's deck.
FC Anger: 20+.  Flip a coin.  If heads, this attack does 20 damage plus 20 more damage.  If tails this attackdoes 20 damage.
 
    The image of TR Mankey vanishes.  
 
Shaun: Wow!  A second attack that can do 40 damage.  It's like a mini me of Ellectabuzz. 
Porygon: Plus, it has Mischief.  It's not the most useful attack, but if you shuffle your opponent's deck, there could a a chance that they lose the chance to get a vital card or energy.
Shaun: I run a Psychic deck myself, but this card is still great.  If anyone needs a good fighting version of Electabuzz, then I highly recommend using TR Mankey.
Porygon: Hey, we almost forgot to do TR Primeape.
Shaun: Porygon, do you mind making an image of the card, I don't have it with me.
Porygon: My pleasure.
    Porygon creates an image of TR Primape.
 
Dark Primeape
Stage 1 Pokemon (evolves from Mankey)
60 HP
Type: Fighting
Weakness: Psychic
Resistance: None
Retreat Cost: C
Pokemon Power Frenzy: When this Pokemon does damage when it is confused (even to itself) it does 30 more damage.
FF Frenzied Attack: 40 damage.  This Pokemon is now confused.
    The image dissapears.
 
Porygon: Cool.  An attack that can do 70 damage on turn 3.  That is enough to knock out most stage ones, and in the TR series, most stage twos.  But if you are confused and you do damage to yourself, then you will only have 10 HP to spare in which your opponent can finish you off.
Shaun: All in all, these guys are probably the quckest and riskiest fighters.  We need to go now, because Proff. Oak needs to fill us in on a few more cards.
Shaun and Porygon: Until next time...keep playing.
    Porygon uses Teleport and He and Shaun dissapear.
