An announcement made at GenCon 2000 shattered the Pokemon world with a
devastating blow equal to that of an atomic weapon.
The dreaded 15 Trainer Max rule and the 2 Trainer Per Turn rule blasted into
all the archetype decks and leveled them completely.
But like the people of Hiroshima that rose from the ash,so will the
archetypes.
The 15 Trainer Rule badly damages Wigglytuff decks,since Wiggly is basicly
another version of the Haymaker with more Pokemon and Evolution.The 2
Trainer a turn also limits the possibilities that Wigglytuff will be dishing
out damage.
Raindance was hit very bad and will barely survive;the fact that it can't
use as many trainers per turn stops it from going off like a shotgun as
much.Raindance has been reduced to a 50% striker that will be mushed by the
decks it so easily defeated in the past.
Stall decks have been incapacitated.The fact that they can't use many
trainers hurts it VERY VERY bad.We probably won't see as many stall decks
around anymore as the 15 trainers really limit what is used in the deck.
Haymakers.......well......they have no idea what to do.They are limited by
the rules and will probably use more Pokemon and Energy (Duh.).The fun part
is that if heavy card drawers are put in they will run at the same speed as
before.
All those other decks that weren't paid much attention won't really be
affected by the rule and will be in majority,most will go on and defeat the
archetypes of the old.
However,like they said....you can't keep a good deck down.
HAYMAKERS 4-EVER!!!!!!!!
