CARD STRATEGIES: It appears that Trapper (where they use Gust of Wind to
bring out a psychic type, Mean Look it with Murkrow, then tear up the bench
using Feint Attack) decks are among the most popular nowadays. The
popularity has caused an ancient behemoth to rise up. Formally one of the
worst cards, it now reigns the pokemon kingdom (or at least it should). It
is Fossil Dragonite. Okay, so your opponent gusts and mean looks, say, your
Unown D. All you do is use Dragonite's Step In Pokemon Power. Now,
Dragonite's not a great attacker, so you'll probably want someone else out
there to beat off Murkrows. All you do is have a Dodrio from the jungle on
your bench with Retreat Aid. Now, it's as if Dragonite's retreat is free.
You can then switch it with who you want to be attacking. Cool!
Another trapper-defeater is gust of wind. Just put Murkrow back on the bench
and get another poke out for you to attack. Double Gust also works, but your
opponent also gets to make you switch. Gust is best.
