SATOSHI: Well, I'm back. And before I begin, I'd like to say a few words.
On saturday, Febuary 12, 2000, The creator of the "Peanuts" comic,
Charles
Schultz, died of colon cancer. I don't know about anyone else, but I loved
that comic and am sad to see the comic itself and its creator die. My
deepest regards go out to Mr. Schultz's family.
Anyway, onto the deck.
>>>
Hey there Satoshi, i like your work, and i like your guidlines. My decks
seems to fair on the good side, but any tips, hints, suggetstions would be
greatly appreciated.
THE SUPREME ALLIANCE(like the name? i do)
POKEMON(16):
4x Hitmonchan (quick n' fast)
4x Scyther(My fav. card. Scyther is very versitile with an ok attack)
3x Hitmonlee(Very good attacks, low retreat, wish HP was 70+ instead of 60)
2x Jigglypuffs(Newbies of the deck. good against physic now that physic is
a popular deck choice, MIMES BEWARE, YOU COULD BE AN ENDANGERED SPECIES OUT
THERE)
2x Ditto(Helps me in situations when i have a weakness or something, and i
need to get rid of it, but sometimes it does get locked, i.e. Mysterious
Fossil, Clefairy Doll)
1x Aredactyl(used to have 3, but slimmed it as i found out he istn' very
good. I only use him for pokemon power. i.e. say bye bye to evelution
decks)
Trainers(23)
3x Bill(DRAW DRAW DRAW)
3x Energy Retrieval(Get those energy back)
3x Energy Removal(Can you say, DISRUPTION?)
3x Plus Power(what a haymaker without it?)
2x Proffesor Oak(DRAW DRAW DRAW)
2x Mysterious Fossil(Needed for Areodactyl, and to lock down dittos)
3x Gust of Wind(Easy Kills)
2x CPU search(Finds what i need)
2x Scoop Up
Energy(21):
21 Fighting energy (you're probably thinking what that's it? well hey, my
pokemon down need that many energys, and if they do, that when energy
retrieval comes in handy, and besides, i don't know what to take out to put
more in)
my strategy, is to beat down the oppenent without letting him even know what
hit him. I use jigglypuff for pysic decks, although, scyther seems to take
care of that, i use ditto for the worst case scenarios, and i aerodacyl for
pokemon power. All the other pokemon i just use it to beat beat and oh
yeah, beat down the oppenent. remember, ANY hints, tips, suggestions, or
comments, are greatly appreciated, and if you could please post my deck, i
would like other people to use my deck, and i would like to read it myself
if you know what i mean, if not, just email me!

SATOSHI: Okay, this does look like a solid deck. Still, I'd like to see if
we can make some adjustments.
---THE POKEMON---
Okay, you're right when you say that areodactyl isn't as good as some people
seem to think. (well, maybe you didn't say it to that extent, but...you get
the idea.) So, since you've only got one, let's drop him. In his place,
let's put another puff. They re pretty solid balloons, I'll tell ya. =) All
the other pokes look good.
---THE TRAINERS---
Okay, since we don't need the mysterious fossil now that the areo-dude is
gone, we'll take him out for two DCE for everyone's favorite
bug...SCYTHER!!!
---THE ENERGY---
Energy looks good...with the addition of two DCEs, you'll be ready to SLASH,
SLASH, SLASH...FAST, FAST, FAST!
---THE OVERALL---
All in all, very solidly constructed deck. Nice job. =)
SATOSHI: Well, that's all for the deck, but I've got something for all you
deck builders out there....
---SATOSHI's TWISTED CHALLENGE---
Alright, you pokepeople! Here's the deck building challenge! I challenge
anyone to try to build a decent deck with JUST COMMONS. NO DCE, either! Once
you've got one, send it my way, and it could get posted along with the other
winners! Good Luck!!
SATOSHI: Well, that's all for today! Good Luck And Happy Gaming!!!
