Basicly to start with riolu and get the turn 2 lucario. In the mean time power up breloom. Phobie's stadium to to kill a possible threat banette or gardevoir. team galatic's mars is a good diruption
card. fast ball to get more pokes faster.

Rate and review.

Hi B_B_C,

Tried to increase the offense force a little more. The lone stadium seemed a little random to me. Thus it is not included in the list below. Either run two of them or remove them all.

POKEMON (13):

1 Lucario L.X (beatdown)
3 Shroomish (evolution)
3 Breloom (beatdown)
3 Lucario (beatdown)
3 Riolu (evolution)

TRAINERS (31):

3 Team Galactic's Wager (disable)
3 Rosanne's Research (search)
3 Team Galactic's Mars (draw)
3 Professor Oak's Visit (draw)
4 Cessation Crystal (disable)
2 Night Maintenance (enable)
3 Celio's Network (search)
3 Strength Charm (enable)
4 Plus Power (enable)
4 Quick Ball (search)

ENERGY (15):

12 Fighting Energy
3 Scramble Energy

Let me know what you think about this idea.

Why only 3-3 lines? And the staduim was to make :psychic: pokemon free retreat so that breloom can 120 them for KO.
 
Hi B_B_C,

No need for four Riolu since no more than three can be evolved. Breloom is nice but needed some room for trainers. The stadium is fine in case psychic is dominant in the local environment. In this case run two to three of them. One is random and chances are it will not be out when it is needed the most. Cut one Cessation and one Plus Power for the two stadiums in case psychic is indeed reliably used in the local meta.

Your rigt about riolu. But I think 4-4 breloom will be ok.

Btw I like your trainer line.
 
I think it's important to have a 4-3-1 line of lucario so that you get the best possible chance of starting with Riolu. Riolu is a phenomenal starter.
 
no it needs 3-3-1 line of lucario

Back to back posts merged. The following information has been added:

3-3-1 line of lucario is ok that is all that you need

Also, Most empoleon decks play the mantine that gives 2 less to retreat.(making empoleon free retreat) With a plus power a OHKO!

I have been playing this deck with much success. It is a very fast deck, getting set up with swarms of Lucario and Breloom almost effortlessly. I usually leave Breloom on the bench with a Scramble in case I get behind, but I have been known to power him up fully. They are both really good Pokemon.

Here is the list I have been playing. Thanks in advance for any additional advice for tuneups!

4-3-1 Lucario (DP)
4-4 Breloom (SW)

16 Pokemon

3 Roseanne's Research
4 Bebe's Search
4 Quick Ball
3 Team Galactic's Mars
3 Professor Oak's Visit
2 Team Galactic's Wager
4 Strength Charm
4 Plus Power
2 Night Maintenance

29 Trainer

2 DRE
1 Scramble
12 Fighting

15 Energy

I'd definitely like to hear your input from playtesting. I don't get to play as much as I'd like to.
