Keith, First of all, do you really think you can run Gyarados and Poliwrath on 8 water energy? No, you can't. You need to take out water completely. It won't work for 3 colors. Second, with only 8 of each type of energy, you shouldn't evolve any pokemon except for maybe Electrode, and even then I wouldn't use him. Evolutions are bad unless you're playing a Rain-Dance. They're slow, they need a lot of energy, and most of them are expensive. Stick to Basics!!!!!! Especially in a 3 color deck-you won't have the energy or the time to evolve them. If your'e going to play 3 colors, I would play this: 4 Hitmonchan 1 Onix 4 Electabuzz 4 Jynx 3 Farfetch'd-The super Bad dude of Pokemon 2 Chansey 8 Fighting Energy 8 Electric Energy 7 Psychic Energy 4 Double Colorless Energy 4 Energy Removal 1 Super Energy Removal 3 Professor Oak 4 Bill 2 Scoop-Up 1 Energy Retrieval Thanks for reading and I hope this Helps!
