QUESTION:      Why are colorless attacks overpriced? EXample-compare
             Machop- 20 for F              Farfetch'd- 30 for 3
             Persian-  20 for 2              Diglett-  30 for FF

ANSWER:  People who know math may understand this better...
           OK, say your deck is 15 Grass energies and 15 water.  You have a
couple of each type of pokemon- say,Weepinbell and Wartortle.  You also have
colorless pokemon- say, Persian and Farfetch'd.  Your CHANCE of drawing a
grass energy is 1/4.  Your CHANCE of getting a water energy is also 1/4.
Your CHANCE of drawing ANY energy is 1/2.  So therefore it is easier to use a
colorless pokemon than it is to use a Grass or Water pokemon---Which is, in
conclusion, why colorless attacks are overpriced.  It's also why DOUBLE
colorless energy was made.  This rule does not apply to mono-decks.
