Going Second!


Article:

In pokemon, luck plays a huge factor as in many games. When you call tails
and it lands heads to decide who goes first you had better get ready for a
tough battle. The opponent gets to draw first, evolve first, put energy on
first, attack first, status effect you first etc.etc. Nothing is worse then
having an Electabuzz paralyze you on the first turn and then next turn
him/her having the advantage by using thunder punch.
I know you're asking how do i counter it! Well here it goes. Since this
happes to me a lot I have prided myself in learning a very key aspect of the
game, it is called Pokemon Tag.

Pokemon Tag?
Yeah you could waste a perfectly good scoop up but why use scoop up on the
first turn! with my luck he'll/she'll just end up paralyzing the next
pokemon that comes into play. This is were my (and other masters of the
game) game wining strategy comes into play.

Pokemon Tag
- Let your active pokemon be sacrificed to set up for position.
this means build up you bench.
-At the same time find more pokemon to build up
- And I strongly reccomend oaking or billing costantly for energy removal
(Reason: so the opponent will have to keep putting energy on his/her active
and will make him/her unable to pump op their own bench( if they have one at
all).


When they take their first prize and your down by one dont worry!!
As far as the game goes you are winning. bring up one of you pokemon and
attack!

what should follow are a number of Ko's  and if you did your job right and
took pride in going second, you, most of the time will come out on top.

Please Practice with this concept. It has destroyed some "Top of the World"
no joke, and is also used my most if not all of them. Build a deck which
caters to it and most importantly contact me if you are confused or need
more info.
