This is a response to The JoZ's article about Jason Ketchum's "my 2 ce--$30
etc." Almost all the things he said were rather thoughtless, and I just
couldn't resist writing this. Here are some of my responses to his statements:

* I think it was quite obvious what Jason (not Justin) Ketchum was trying to
say about Dark Arbok. If you don't understand what the rest of us easily
understand, keep your  mouth shut.

* Have you ever LOOKED at Dark Blastoise? He can do 70 damage for 4 water
energy, not 50! Think before you write.

* About Dark Dugtrio, have you ever heard of a card called GUST OF WIND? The
concept is simple: Gust out Dugtrio and KO him with Scyther. Same goes for
Dark Vileplume, except it would take 2 hits to KO him.

* About your claim that Rage is a colorless attack and therefore would not
account for weakness, I think maybe you'd better read the rule book.
Colorless attacks still cause double damage if the defending Pokemon is weak
to the type of Pokemon that your active is. Again, think before you spout
ridiculous nonsense like that.

* As for Jason's statement about Dark Gloom, he's obviously trying to say
that Dark Gloom's and Ivysaur's poison attacks should be as good as Dark
Muk's. It was obvious to me, maybe not to you though...

* About Dark Golduck, again I suggest that you read the rule book. Dark
Golduck will do 100 damage to any Pokemon that's weak to Water, and he's good
in a Psychic deck because he does the full amount of damage (50) to colorless
Pokemon.

* As for his statement that Weedle is better than Dk Persian, he was simply
trying to show just how bad Dk Persian is (and I think most of us agree with
him).

* He wasn't BASHING Dark Charizard.

* Base set Ponyta's first attack requires 2 colorless, which can be powered
up in one turn, whereas the only way to power Rocket Ponyta in one turn is to
use a Base Electrode. Maybe you haven't heard of DCE...

*As for your comment that TR Slowpoke could become the next Mime killer, I
think there's already a perfect Mime killer, and it's called Jungle
Jigglypuff. Besides, I've noticed that Mime is becoming less common at
tournaments I attend.

 I'm too lazy to write anymore, so I'll just stop here. Thanks for reading.
