This is my new deck working with some of the known upcoming cards from the Unleashed (UL) set! ...As you can see. Also, as another obvious note, this is no longer called DuskBat as I have replaced Dusknoir with Metagross. Now it's called something else that's clever, like MetaBat. Or CroGross or GrossBat. I'm taking suggestions on this as well, haha.
Anyway, the strategy is to use Weezing as a tech on the bench while using Crobat UL to poison my opponent for a whopping 50 damage in between turns. When Crobat gets tired, he switches out with Metagross who, equipped with E-Belt and just 1 energy, hits for 80 and has free retreats due to his PokeBody. Once he gets 3 energy on him, he can snipe two pokes for 40 each, which is not bad at all. Add in some Crobat G Flashbiting + PokeTurn, and you can pull off two easy prizes right there while your opponent's active takes the 50 in between turns from poison. And there's your third prize. Wash, rinse, and repeat, and you've won. A little bit idealistic perhaps, but I haven't play-tested it yet, so we'll see.
