I really think that Erika's Dragonair's family is the best family in the Gym
1 series. Let's take a look at the card translation.
Erika's Dratini
40 HP
Weakness: none
Resistance: Psychic
Pokemon Power: Wonder Barrier. When a Basic's Pokemon deals 20 or greater to
this pokemon, reduce it to 10. Confused, Paralyzed, Asleep shuts this power
off.
2 Colorless: 10 + Flip a coin for the extra 20 damage.
Erika's Dragonair
80 HP
Weakness: none
Resistance: Psychic
RETREAT COST: 2 colorless
3 colorless: 30 + Flip a coin. If heads, then do ten damage to each of your
opponent bench pokemon. If tails, it hit your bench
4 colorless: Super Scoop up for both sides. (any cards that are attached to
the active and defending pokemon goes to the respected deck)
Think of it as a pidgeot and articuno combine into one card.
Erika's Dratini can shut down a haymaker's deck. Watch out for electabuzz.
Also shut down articuno.
Erika's Dragonair- bye, blastoise!! bye, T.R vileplume!! bye, alakazam!!
Here's a perfect combo for them.
Confusion gym + either Dratini or Dragonair.
Confusion gym(summary): Anything that is use to attach to a pokemon can't be
use;i.e: pluspower. Any other trainer: Flip a coin. If tails, your opponent
may choose to use it against you. IT AFFECTS BOTH SIDES. LAST UNTIL ANOTHER
STADIUM CARD IS PLAY.
(WATCH OUT: THIS COULD REALLY BACKFIRE AGAINST YOU. PLAY WITH CAUTION)
It will protect Dratini or give you a quick K.O. If your opponent has only
one bench and you have a Dragonair in your hand, then you have a pretty good
chance of winning; 50% of using lass, T.R Sneak Attack, Professor Oak, Bill,
and anything else that might help them get a basic or make you shuffle your
hand.
