Hi, this is Dragon Master. I have an article on Rocket's
Hitmonchan and Wobbuffet. These two will work really well in a Slowking deck and
here's why. There's a deck you can build around them:
Hit You Back Deck:
Pokémon(15):
3 Rocket's Hitmonchan
3 Wobbuffet
3 Slowpoke(Neo Genesis)
3 Slowking
2 Murkrow
1 Cleffa(Neo Genesis)
Trainers(29):
3 Professor Oak
3 Gold Berry
3 Computer Search
3 Item Finder
2 Scoop Up
2 Gust of Wind
2 Super Energy Removal
2 Imposter Oak's Revenge
3 The Rocket's Trap
3 Rocket's Sneak Attack
2 Ecogym
2 Resistance Gym
Energy(15):
4 Darkness Energy
6 Psychic Energy
5 Fighting Energy
This is an idea. Change the deck to fit your
style, but here's how it works. You see, Rocket's Hitmonchan used to be the best
Fighting Pokémon ever, and then Rocket's Zapdos came and ruined it. People are
starting to use it again but very few since there's still Rocket's Zapdos. The
idea of the deck is to use Rocket's Hitmonchan and Wobbuffet to counter your
opponent's attacks and hit your opponent right back, hence the name.
The Pokémon are fairly simple. Rocket's Hitmonchan will
use Crosscounter, and Sneasel won't attack most of the time except with its
fairly bland Fury Swipes in fear of the Crosscounter. Or, Sneasel will retreat
and out will come Rocket's Zapdos. And here's the part where Rocket's Zapdos
starts Electroburning Hitmonchan and because Hitmonchan is a Fighting Pokémon,
it can hardly do a thing to Rocket's Zapdos. But that's where Resistance Gym
comes in. Now, Rocket's Zapdos can burn R's Hitmonchan but at risk of taking 130
damage! And 3 Slowking on the Bench will spell doomsday for your opponent's
chances of playing Trainers. But, then what about Igglybuff? Here's where
Murkrow comes in. Murkrow will stop the Defending Pokémon cold, you strip it of
its Energy while you play Super Energy Removal, and next turn Feint Attack the
Bench. The Trap combo also helps devastate your opponent's chances of getting a
good draw. Then, if a non-Fighting Resistant Pokémon decides to play stall on
Rocket's Hitmonchan and not attack during the late game, smack it with Magnum
Punch for 50 damage(100 if Electabuzz or any of the other Fighting-weak Pokémon.
But what if Rocket's Hitmonchan just couldn't do the job?? Then you've got its
Psychic partner Wobbuffet. This is a neat and handy trick. Use Wobbuffet's
Counter attack. Wobbuffet will cause opponent's to fear once again smacking
Wobbuffet. And Wobbuffet's 90 HP will keep opponents on their toes. The lone
Cleffa is there to act like a Professor Elm in an attack.
The Trainers look a little complex, but aren't.
Professor Oak is there for monstrous card-drawing and Gold Berry provides
staying power in case you got hit by a big attack that didn't knock you out.
Computer Search and Item Finder are staples to almost any deck and Scoop Up
provides even better staying power. The Trap combo assists Slowking while Gust
of Wind allows you to haul out for a quick knockout or play it safe. Super
Energy Removal provides stalling power. Ecogym helps as an anti-Energy Removal
and Resistance Gym tries to make sure the Counter or Crosscounter has a better
chance of hitting against Resistant Pokémon.
As for the Energy, it's all there for the obvious
reasons. Darkness for Murkrow, Psychic for Wobbuffet and the Slowpoke family and
Fighting for Rocket's Hitmonchan. They can also be used for Cleffa, if
desired.
This deck actually is a good deck. But if you like it,
don't miss my next deck, Beauty Salon Trap!
