Pokemon (16)
4 Empoleon
4 Prinplup
4 Piplup
2 Blissey
2 Chansey

Trainers (27)
4 Castaway
4 Mentor
4 TV Reporter
4 Celios
1 TGW
3 Rare Candy
3 Cessation Crystal
2 Buffer Piece
1 Strength Charm
1 Warp Point
1 Night Maintenance/Water energy (not sure if Maintenance is really needed)

Energy (16)
3 Scramble
13 Water

SO, ya start w/ Piplup or Chansey. Aim for a T2 Prinplup or Blissey. Spread damage or hit fast w/ Blissey.
Both are tanks and not easily OHKO'd, SO Buffer Piece helps even more.
Empoleon is used all the time, and is a nice tank.
Bounce back from a KO'd Empoleon w/ Blissey or Empoleon+Scramble.
I dunno if this is gonna be my citys deck or not.
 
Have you tried 4-3-4 line it might make room for another cess or buffer.
You don't have a lot of basic pokemon use some Roseanne's insted of Mentor.
-1 Prinplup
-4 Mentor
+3 Roseanne's Research
+1 Night Maintenance
+1 Buffer Peice
Try this rare candies saves time for 1 less Prinplup.

Nah Roseanne's isn't dat great in dis deck cause Mentor let's you discard an energy for Blissey, whereas Roseanne's does not.
With 4 Mentor and 4 TV Rep you can usually have an energy in the discard for a T2 Blissey.

Holon WP is almost a must in this deck. Gets rid of too much to not use.

Ok, I under stand that I'm not used to a Blissy/Empoleon deck otherwise I'm starting to quit thinking a lot.:nonono: (I'm messing up my 4.0)
I have mention this before (it may have been on POJO) that you should use Sableye do drop energy into the discard to burn through the deck.
 
4/4/4 is excessive with 3 rare candy. You'll be wanting to bypass prinplup with candy/scramble quite a bit. Drop a prinplup.

After that, you'll want to drop a castaway. 4 is not needed with 13 basic energy, absol running around (devestates castaway), and only 6 tools. 3 should be fine. After that, drop a mentor. With 3 mentor and 3 castaway, you should still be able to get those basics out just fine. Maybe go 2/1 mentor/roseannes in case you can't afford the mentor discard or in case you are energy dry.

Theeeen, drop a TVR, drop the NM for +1/1 blissey.

With the remaining slots try to get in more diverse draw like stevens/ccat/wager for use with castaway.
 
That seems interesting, but run 4-4 blissey and 3-2-4-1 Empoleonand add a few TGM and Roseannes research or Bebes Search!

You can only have a total of 4 Empoleon and empoleon X in total. It would have to be a 3-2-3-1 line. Which I wouldn't suggest seeing as Emp Lv. X isnot really necessary in this deck.
 
he wants to start with Piplup (DP #93) no energy needed to do damage T#1. Then evolve into Prinplup (DP #58) to do "Spread" damage until knocked out. While this is happening set up blissey or Empoleon on bench to KO and then pound on opponent until finished!
 
seriously.. 2 WP. ill even list the stuff it gets rid of...

Sableye's effect
Banette's 1st attack
Gallade's first attack
Gardevoir lv.X
Dusknoir's attack
Conditions from attacks
"Pulling" attacks
Smokescreen attacks
Damage increasing/reducing attacks
and much, much more..
