what is there a 5th stage in your Empoleon line?
I think you should take out the premier ball for another night maintenance
 
The prinplup should be dp.. Its the best dmg spreader.. I dont like cressilia in here, thats just me.. And you need to find away to add another rare candy, cause there good for late game and omastar... And another night maintenance.
 
I like it Chris, I was using 2-2 Cressilia in a Few of my Empo decks, I would Try to run AT Least 3-4 Warp Points to get those Cressy Xs on the bench for FMD!
 
I really feel a 2-2-2 line of Omastar is needed. You can't always rely on the rare candy, and I've had some many times where I wanted to slowly build the Omastar late game and the 1 Omanyte was prized or in the discard. Energy evolution is awesome and I feel it should be abused.

oh, and Kudos on posting your list for Nationals before nationals.
 
My Empoleon line:

x3 Piplup MD 60HP
x1 Piplup MD 50HP
x2 Prinplup DP
x2 Empoleon MD
x1 Empoleon DP
x1 Empoleon Lv.X DP

Dont kid yourself Prime. This is NOT his list. Nice try. However since I run a similar deck. I will point out some things I found.

No need for 4 prinplup....
Drop 1 for another rare candy.

also,

Why ony 2 fossils, 1 omanyte, and 2 omastar? seems like its a little redundant. You may want to look at that area for a better lineup. I personally am trying 1-1-1 and more warp points for disruption.

Nice overall,

I highly doubt you will play this.

Why do you say that, Jimmy? It says "for Nationals", so you'd think he is running it. Not everything's gotta be a secret! :thumb:

i ran a pretty similar list to this one these first BRs. I did notice that I had SLIGHT problems gettting out Empoleons. So now I'll try 4 candy/3 Prinplup.

The heavy Omastar is so you can pull it twice in a game, which was done with high frecuency with my other Empoleon variant.
 
hey chris was this the deck you played against me at the niles BR?..i was the guy with the ape deck you faced fourth round.
 
Would it not make sense to play some Psychic or Multi enerrgy so that Cresselia can attack if need be? I've just been playtesting with this (I needed an Empoleon build to test against) and it seemed to slip up there quite often.

that was another list i was trying out. but both are very similar lists.

To Ultima in order to attack with the Cresselia Lv X you would have to have some form of energy acceleration like an energy switch or something and then Castform it. It would take to long to simply power it up turn by turn. Adding Psychics or Multis would just get in the way of Waters and Call Energy.

Your bad

Anyways fit in energy for Cresselia drop 2 of the Prinplup play 4 candy 2 night maintenance. You really could drop the Priemer Ball is it that important?
