Hey yo listen up! I have a pretty darn good strategy for Dark Raichu! If you use Rocket's Hideout Trainer card with Dark Raichu, his HP goes from 70 to 90.How good is that?! Now u have a bench destroyer, solid HP,and a heavy hitter all in one!
Dark Energy really helps this guy out. If your opponent strips away your Dark Energy,use Energy Charge or Trash Exchange to try to get them back. If you use Misty's Golduck with Dark Raichu,your opponent's bench will be weakened severely. You'll have to retreat back and forth but its worth it!You could also put the new Neo Revelation Shining Gyarados(if u can find it)into the act.His Devastate attack makes you discard 2 fire but you put 10 damage to your opponent's bench and you strip one of each of your opponent's pokemon's energy cards! It doesn't end yet! You also deal 50 damage to your opponent's active pokemon.Still it gets better......Shining Gyarados can be used as a BASIC pokemon!!!!!!!! Well,that's my strategy. Be on the look out for my strategies for the Legendary Dogs(Suicune,Raikou,and Entei).If you have any questions,comments,or u want some ideas, e-mail me at Jago230351@aol.com. No hate-mail or viruses please....Hope this strategy helps you out!



P.S You can only have 1 Shining Gyarados in your deck! I am telling you this to save you from embarassment. One kid at my local pokemon league used 3 Shining Gyarados in his deck and he was disqualified!
