Ok, I play at the pokemon league twice a week. Almost all the people there think that elm is a ton better than oak. I'd have to disagree.

Professor Oak
The Good
You can use ANY card you get when you use professor oak to get a new hand.
The Bad
Decking is a problem

Professor Elm
The Good
You can shuffle your hand into your deck rather than discarding them.
The Bad
You can't use the trainers you got in your new hand!

I think that Oak is better, because with elm, you can't play the trainer cards that you used elm to get anyway! I think I'll stick with oak.
