DECK DE-CONSTRUCTION BY TYLER GRUND

   At first glance this deck, I see no problems...every pokemon is 
strong, and each trainer is of good quality...so good so far:)

>
>13 psi energy   Good energy balence...but you may want to throw
>12 Fighting     in a few dbl. colorless for your chanseys to feed on.
>
>2 mewtwos    I like him. plain and simple..best staller in the game.
>4 abras      Not much until he evolves.
>3kadabra      both these evolutions are powerfull.  I want to see 
>2 alakazams    more kids playing with them.
>
>4 hitmochans  aaah, i love brown...and with Psi, its nasty:)
>4machops     solid basic...simple, but powerfull
>1 machoke    hmmm, no.  I never really liked machoke.  His attack 
              never seemed to do much.  I only use him if machamp is
             in the deck.  Now, dont feel just because you have machop
              in the deck, that you MUST put in machoke.  Machop can
             handle things on his own. But to tell you the truth, One
             machoke really won't hurt anything, and it can actually 
             give the deck some different approaches.
>2 chanseys   gotta love em' in almost any deck.
>
>4 energy removals   good, but may not be needed, I have found, if i 
                     dont have a strong energy removal part of my 
                     deck, i'll place 4 potions in, they are real 
                    annnoying and can actually stall the game a little
                   like E.R. do.
>2 gust of winds   I'm slowing liking these guys more and more.
>2 switch         hmm, im not sure if necessary.  You wanna know a 
                  better version of this?  Scoop up.  its like a 
                   switch AND a pokemon center in one...it works 
                   wonders
>2 pokeomn traders  ...you'll need them w/21 pokemon...
>1 professior oak   hmm...good, but you REALLY need at least 2 bills 
                    too.

  Ok, First off, you would like to get some farfetch'd into the deck, 
so my first suggestion would be to take out the machoke, and one 
machop and get at least 2 farfetch'd in there.  The Hitmonchans will 
take up most of the firepower, and if YOU run into other farfetch'd,  
your machops will become useless anyways...   If you don't want to get 
rid of the machoke, just take out 2 machops, so you have 2 machops and 
1 machoke evolution.

   I would have to say, this decks looks to work.  I like fighting and 
Psi, they are a strong combination. At first I was going to suggest 
Jynx, but to tell you the truth, Mewtwo would work a bit better.  
Since you DO have Mewtwo in the deck, I would also suggest a FEW more 
purple energy. I have found, MEwtwo to be a very large sucker of 
energy. And you need the stalling to get that alakazam out.

All in All, It looks to be a solid deck.  The Trainers are strong, 
except for the lack of bills.  The Biggest problem is the huge number 
of pokemon..21?  thats way too many. Trainers win games.  Try fine 
tuning the deck a bit more...maybe even taking out ALL the machops and 
machokes to leave room for some trainers.  Good luck.
