Sleepytime For Snorlax is my new wondertoy. (: It began its existence as
a Trouble theme deck and quickly took on a life of its own
Sleepytime For Snorlax

----------------------
Play is easy. Put Snorlax in front, then use Drowzee's and Dark Gloom's
Pokemon Powers to Sleep or Confuse your opponent. These don't affect
Snorlax because of his Pokemon Power. Cool! Meanwhile, use Body Slam to
crunch your opponent into bits and maybe Paralyze him instead. Dark
Vileplume could be included in the deck too, and put in an appearance
once you've got the Drowzee/Snorlax or Dark Gloom/Snorlax combination going.
What about Fighting? That crushes Snorlax pretty fast. Luckily, you have
the two colors Fighting is weak against in Oddish/Dark Gloom and
Drowzee/Hypno. Send those out and pick at your opponent's weakness.
Koffing is a good mid-game annoyance if you end up short a Snorlax
somehow. He could be easily substituted or split with Scyther, if you
have enough to spare. You'd probably want to remove one to make room for
the Dark Vileplume if you chose to go that route.
I've been very satisfied with this deck so far. Feel free to try it out
and see how you like it. (: I'd love to hear any constructive criticism.
