Moltres stall, huh? You know, I can't remember ever having fixed one of these. Looks like now is a good time to start. By the way, I just want to clarify that even though I do not personally care for stall decks, I have nothing against the majority of them. My original anti-stall sentiments were directed against the infamous Energyless Stall, and I have since come to appreciate that there are many different types of stall decks.

1) Okay, first of all, there was a very good article on Moltres stall published on the Pojo recently. You should read it, as it gives some handy insights into the workings of the deck. There's nothing wrong with any of your Poke as such (you've swapped Scyther for Lickitung, which should be fine as long as there's not too much fighting around) but you probably want another Moltres and another Lickitung. Other than that, not much to say since this deck is extremely simple Pokemon-wise.

2) Your trainers look great so far. 2 Oak are just right here, letting you draw through and get your combo elements before going into stall mode. 4 Pokemon centers may be a bit high. I also think you want more than 2 search--in fact, 4 would be ideal. 2 GOW are okay, same with the SER, and the Traders will be okay too. Nothing needs changing there. What I would do is take out the Switch for Scoop (in an all-basic deck, especially a stall, they're much better.) I'd also slip in a couple of Item Finders, just because, and then put in 3 Nightly Garbage run (Rocket's gift to stall decks, and to most decks for that matter.) How will we get any space we need? Simple: we'll drop energy. 29 is too much even for Moltres.

3) Energy: Fire and DCE, of course.

That's about it. Since you sent the deck in in the first place, I guess you know how the thing is supposed to play. Good luck!
