Dark Steelix is The Best!!!
By Seymour
20th August 2005

Hello, readers! As everyone know, Ex - Team Rocket Returns has been out for quite a while right now and unless you can't read the title, I'm going to say a few things about Dark Steelix.

Okay, first things first. For those who haven't seen a Dark Steelix yet, let

me tell you the details...

HP: 110
Type: Darkness and Metal
Poke'Power/ Poke'Body: -
Attacks: CC Energy Link 20
- Attach an Energy Card from the discard pile to Dark Steelix

FCCC Heavy Impact 60

Weakness: Fire
Resistance: Grass
Retreat Cost: CCCC

Well as you can see, Dark Steelix may look like a normal Stage 1 poke'mon with a very high HP and a painful 4 retreat cost. However, I found out that it is a very strong card - if you know how to use it...

A. Use it with Meteor Falls
- There are 2 ways on using Dark Steelix with Meteor Falls:
1. Evolve a Ex Sandstorm Onix into a Dark Steelix and when it has more than
6 damage counters,use Rage instead of Heavy Impact - good for taking down unwary opponents. Plus, it;s a Metal type so don't worry about your Dark Steelix getting knocked out during your next turn.

or

2. Evolve an Aquapolis Onix into a Dark Steelix and attach a crazy amount of

Energy Cards to it. This may sound insane but if you suceed, you can inflict

painful amounts of damage and to make things worse you can add in more
Energy Cards with Dark Steelix's Energy Link attack. Sounds interesting?

B. Use Mr. Briney's Compassion
- Use Dark Steelix's Energy Link to take back the precious special Energy
Cards and once you do, tale the whole loot back to your hand with the Mr.
Briney's Compassion.

Well, here are my opinions about Dark Steelix. If you have anything to say
(even about my weak English grammar), please send your messages to
seymour8491380@hotmail.com. I'll be glad to read them...
