This deck i constructed is bit
different from the rest of the other decks because of its unique capabilities,
this deck can both offend and defend at the same time, i competed in the third
pokemon trading card tournament i've been in and i won with no sweat, it's not
that the players in the tournament are bad its just htey are not familiar with
the unique deck of mine. the strategy for this deck is like this: get out the
chanseys early out in the game and computer search for a moltres if you don't
get one by drawing, then keep on attaching energies to moltres until it's oing
to pop, send it out and gust out one of your opponents weak pokemon and boom
for a wild fire leaving them with a few cards in their decks, then use the
scoop ups and pokemon centers to manipulate through the game, use chanseys to
hold your opponent till they run out of cards. Or, if your opponent decide to
go for a rush and attack very quickly, you can use the magmars and lickitungs
to fend them off and luckily win the game, or use the computer search to get
the moltres out and repeat the steps from above.

Here is how i did in the tournament
Round 1 vs giovanni
Giovanni is one of my good
frieds, he is the one who taught me how to play the pokemno trading card game,
i am a little scared to play against him in the first round because if i lose,
it gives me a bad record. so anyway, the situation didn't turn out as bad as i
think it would, Giovanni played with his best deck the rain dance turbo. due
to my luck, i got head on the flip, and luckily drawn 2 chanseys and 1 magmar
in my hand. i sent out a chansey to test out what kind of pokemon he's got out
there, he started out with a lapras and a Articuno of his bench. so i computer
searched for a moltres, puttnig him on the bench and attached a energy and
said go. his deck was very well constructed, he put a squirtle on the bench
and said go. i attached another energy on to moltres and said go. due to my
surprise he got his blastoise out on turn two and fully powered his lapras and
oaked. lucky me, his helping me with my strategy, so he water gun chansey with
30. i shown no fear, use a professor Elm to search for more energy. through
out the rest of the game, he used bill and bill, oak after oak, and took out a
few of my chanseys. so i got mad and sent out moltres and OK his deck.
1-0
Round 2 vs Ron (telekenisis)
Ron is a school mate, i meet
him in biology and math, but i never knew he played pokemon, so i had no idea
that how good he can be. Ron played a straight psychic deck from hell, i dread
playing against psychic decks because they are so trickery. then i ound out he
played with a revised sabrina's deck, so i knew i was goin to die because
sabrina had a pokemon that can do 110 damages to my chansey. so the round
begain, i took out a magmar against his movie promo mewtwo. he went first
attaching a psychic energy on to mewtwo and put a sabrina's gastly on the
bench (saffucating gas). i went draw a moltres used energy removal on mewtwo
and bill for energies. he went and put a abra (sycronize)
on the bench so i got scared, i put down a moltres attached an energy and gust
out that abra and smoke screen for 10. he sense the danger and evolved his
abra quickly into a kadabra and attached a energy, then he used life drain and
fliped tails, lucky for me! the rest of the game got quite boring because he
tried every thing to knock out my chanseys but i repeated the same thing i did
last round.
2-0
Round 3 vs Adrian (Lt.
surge wanta be)
Adrian is a
very good friend of mine, i hate beating him because he will probably try to
beat me up late but who cares, just one more round and i win a box of unopened
Neo genisis cards. Adrian played a reconstructed Lt. suge deck that attacks
xtremly fast and hard. i was lucky to go first and sent out a chansey to take
the beating. he attacked and attacked with his electubuzz and raichu, but i
always scoop up and pokemon center when my chanseys have 10 hp left. Adrian
got so mad that i threatens to kill me, but eventually my trainers ran out but
who cares, i have a moltres out with 16 energies, so i won.
3-0
last round against Robert (Erika's pet)
Robert is my best frined, he and i are about equal powered. this time he knew
basically what i was using so he came up with a stall deck with erikas
pokemons. tghe most amazing thin was that in the round, and i had my moltres
all powered up, i gusted out my moltres and used take away with erika's
dragonair. i got worried, but with the super energy retrievals i might be able
to beat him. so i repowered up a moltres and kept my eyes on the dratinis
making sure they never evolve. on my 40th turni killed the deck he had le.
4-0
I got a box of Neo and i am really happy, and i think i will use this deck
frequently.
