Normally I don't respond to these strategies and such, but this Pokemon Lady is really annoying me. Please post this Pojo, I'd really like to get my point across. ------->Geez what the hell is your problem? You seem to have it in for anyone who wants to win a freaking tournament. Wah, wah, raindance beats my deck. Wah wah, haymaker beat me up. Go cry me a river Lady. If a deck works, use it. -------->Some people may have 1000s of cards, but how many actual cards are there? Only about 150 different cards, many of them being nearly useless. This isn't Magic, where there are like 5000 different cards, and a huge amount of good decks to make. Plus, Pokemon decks are limited to 60 cards. With all this in-mind, its obvious that the good decks are going to be copied over and over. Many of the great Pokemon cards out have been used to their full potential already. ------->And another thing, you take this game way too seriously. Someone who wants to win is not pathetic. If a haymaker can win you a tourney, go use it. People who use Rain Dance and Haymaker are not pathetic. -------> You play in the tourneys for the *gasp* fun? Why don't you save your money and play people at local card stores for the *gasp* fun? Well, in tourneys, its fun AND you have a chance to win money. Not too difficult a concept to understand. -------> Now you're running you're own tournaments? Great, why don't you outlaw all the good cards, and only let people use Goldeens and Porygons in their decks. Then you won't "bitch" about the "sure kill" decks. -------> Thinking up a deck to beat up on a certain deck is for scared little children? This is just to idiotic to respond to, but I will try. If a deck destroys your deck, are you going to play that same deck at the next tourney? Logic says no. You will try and improve your deck, or make a deck to beat the deck that beat you. If you lose every week to a Haymaker, wouldn't it make sense to make a deck to beat a Haymaker? ----------> Bottom line is, if a deck is good people will use it. You may not want to make a Rain Dance or a Haymaker, and you may not want to make a deck designed to beat those two decks, but those who want to win will. At least until Fossil comes out that is. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll go back to putting the finishing touches on my new Rain Dance deck. *Magic Matt*
