Hello Poke-people and welcome to Martin's Mansion. Today we will be reviewing a Crobat deck. I decided to review some modified decks before I got into unlimited fixes because of the Challenge series.


Pokemon

Very solid Pokemon. I really do think Crobat is best as a 4/4/3 line. I see you use Pokemon Breeder to get it out turn 2, but I really do think thats very overrated. Since Golbat has a solid second turn 2 attack, and you can't Cross attack with Crobat till turn 3.

Lose Cleffa for another Pichu. 3 Pichu is great, and I think the best way to go.  Murkrow is also a necessity in this deck because It works well for mean looks on threatening Psychic Pokemon and also good for a game winning mean look on an opposing Pichu also.

The Tyrogue is a nice edition to this. I really don't think you should rely on it for first turn KO's. The odds are against you, and if you DON'T go for it, you can build a Crobat a turn sooner.


Trainers

I like it. But, as I have said before to many, Wrath is kind of inconservative. I strongly recommend Erika/Imposter Oaks revenge in Crobat. You draw cards, while lowering your opponents options at the same time.

Since we play a 4/4/3 Crobat line, we are dropping all 3 breeders. Get rid of 1 Pokemon trader, you have enough drawing. Since you play IOR, I think you can drop the RSA's. The rest of the cards in your deck are no brainers. Finally, drop the 2 Nightly for a time capsule. It saves space and is very economical =D.


Energy
10 would be too little, 12 would be too much...so your 11 grass is just perfect. The 3 Darkness is alright too, since 1 is all you usually need for a single Mukrow. The Full Heal Energy is great tech for tight spots.



Final Deck
4-Zubat
4-Gobat
3-Crobat
3-Cleffa
3-Pichu
1-Tyrogue/Promo Scyther


Trainers
4-Professor Elm
4-Double gust
4-Erika
4-Imposter Oak's Revenge
3-Focus band
2-Pokemon Trader/ Sabrinas Gaze ;x
2-Chaos Gym
2-resistance gym
1-Time Capsule
1-Rocket Sneak attack (save this for late game to strip them of the threatening double gust)
Energy
11-Grass
3-Darkness
1-Full heal energy

There you have it, a formidable Crobat for the Gym Challenge. Good luck and I hope you win.

Also, I will look forward to the people going the the West Coast Stadium Challenge. If you see the guy in the yellow nike hat, thats me. I will write a large report of that event also.

Keep sending those decks =)
