Arbok14's Hollow

Buzzap!
October 21, 2008

Alright, let’s go right in to the deck I have chosen for today:

 

------------------------------

 

Hey Arbok14!

Before I get started I just need to say that my mum has banned me from buying new pokemon cards- she says they are a waste of money, but I don't mind too much because I prefer playing with the first three sets, anyway. I own all of the Base set, most of the Jungle expansion and some of the Fossil expansion. I own some of the Neo's sets and a small amount of the Ruby & Sapphire sets. If you can, please stick to those ones mentioned there. This deck is what I have used to beat my friends and family (Very easily) in our own, mini-league/tournament.  Thanks in advance!. Here goes:

OK, well since you are on a tight card supply, I will just give you advice for making it better, rather than giving you a brand new decklist. That way you can use it to decide what cards you have rather than have a completely useless list because you don’t have the right cards.

 

For the Pokemon side, I’d say it would be reasonable to stay with Bellossom, Manectric, and Magneton/Dark Magneton as your main deck. I would take out some cards like Breloom, Erika’s Oddish, and Lt. Surge’s Magnemite. If you have them, Electabuzz and Scyther would be good choices to play here. Any other strong basics would do well, so go through what you have and pick some of the stronger cards you have. It’s wise to stick to 1-2 energy types, so that you don’t over-complicate your deck.

 

As for trainers, I would suggest finding all of your draw cards, and putting 10-15 in here. They would seriously help you set up better, and allow you to use less energy. Anything, like Bill, Professor Oak, Computer Search, Professor Elm, if you have supporters, etc. Energy Removal and Gust of Wind are good, too, and if you have Super Energy Removal, that would be a good option. Also, if you have PlusPower or Defender, these cards would be beneficial. Try playtesting to see what works best for your deck.

 

The energy, if you are able to get more draw cards, would be able to be reduced and allow you more room for other trainers. Double Colorless Energy is good, if you have Rainbow Energy or Recycle Energy would be beneficial.

 

OK, well that concludes this segment of the deck garage. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to give you a specific decklist, but it would have been difficult considering the restrictions, plus I feel you would benefit more from this kind of deck-fix. Look over what you have and determine if you have stuff that can benefit the deck, mainly strong basic Pokemon, draw Trainers, and supporters. I hope that this has helped, and email me if you have any questions. Good luck!
