Hey,KittyFox. I'm having some trouble with my newest "creation".I face my freinds alot of times I usually win but then there's the occasion he actually get's his Dark Charizard out...... but that's a different story.This is my 15/3c deck! Raichu's Taking Over The World! Pokes 3 Jungle Pika 2 Base Raichu 1 Dark Raichu 2 Lt.Surge's Pika 1 Lt.Surge's Raichu 3 Rocket Zapdos 3 Electabuzz 2 Scyther(What deck doesn't have this guy?) Trainers 3 Oak 3 Bill 3 Comp. Search 3 Itemfinder 2 Vermilion City Gym 3 Pluspower 3 NGR 3 ER 3 SER Energy 16 Lightning 1 DCE I start with either Scy,or Zap and then build up a Raichu until I unleash the big Rai(s) and demolish them!Mhahahahahahah!Me and my Raichu are evil! ;)Due to the East Coast STS rules, I'm going to show everyone how they might modify and make this deck ready for that tournament. I will be doing this style of a fix at least until the East Coast STS is done. 3 max of any card except basic energy and 15 trainers...
One of my friends where I live is playing a very similar lightning deck in the Prop 15/3C environment. Let me show you how you might modify your deck a little bit to keep it going even faster than before!
Pokemon (18 Basic + 2 Evols = 20 Total):
3 Pikachu (Movie)
2 Dark Raichu
3 Rocket Zapdos
3 Electabuzz
3 Magnemite
3 Scyther
3 Chansey
For energy, we need lots of Lightning!
Energy (20 Basic + 6 Special = 25 Total):
20 Lightning
3 Double Colorless
2 Full Heal
That leaves us with room for our 15 trainers. Now, let's focus on using our Defenders and Transparent Walls to protect from our exploding Magnemites and use Oaks and Computer Searches to get Lightning Energy into the discard pile for Zapdos to pick up.
Trainers (15 Total):
3 Erika
3 Professor Oak
2 Computer Search
3 Defender
2 Transparent Walls
2 Gust of Wind
Good luck to you with this deck!
