Hiya!!!
 
I'm goin' to do a single card stratagy on Vileplume- Not dark, but regular old Vileplume.
 
Here is what the card says:
                       Evolves from gloom
                                   Vileplume          80 HP G
 
 
               Pkmn Pwr: Heal           Once during your turn (before you attack), You may flip a coin. If heads, remove 1 damage counter from 1 of your Pokemon. This power can't be used if Vileplume is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.
 
GGG-Petal Dance Flip 3 coins. This attack does 40 times the number of heads.   40X
 
   Weak                                         Ris.                                                            Ret.
     R                                                                                                                    2
 
 
 
 
Well, that's what it says. Now for the strategy!!
       
                              Vileplume could be a WONDERFUL card, or a HORRIBLE card.Why horrible?? Because it could do nothing but still confuse itself. Why wonderful?? Because it has KILLER abilities!!!!!  It could do 120, KO'n anybody, it could do 80, and I can only think of 8 pokemon that can withstand that!!!!!( not counting TR/NEO cards), Or it could do a lonely 40, which only destroys small basics.(I would NOT, in my entire life, use a Stage 1 or 2 if it had 40 HP).
