Rain Dance
Trying to find the "best" Raindance deck using Base Set - Fossil:setsF: sets.
Strategy: Get Water Energies on Blastoise using Rain Dance and attack, move damage counters on the bench using Alakazam's Damage Swap.
Pokemon: 14
Basics: 8
2 Alakazam - Is for moving damage counters around
2 Abra - Free retreat cost after switching a Special Conditioned Blastoise is nice
3 Blastoise - the main attacker
1 Wartortle - when facing something like Aerodactyl (Fossil)
4 Squirtle - to evolve into Blastoise
1 Scyther (Jungle) - Free retreat cost and Aerodactyl counter
1 Tentacool (Fossil) - move damage counters onto Tentacool and heal using Cowardice, if you need an extra card to Computer Search or Item Finder and Oak, you could discard Tentacool
Trainers: 34
4 Computer Search - you need this to get Professor Oak generally
4 Professor Oak - get the cards you need quicker
4 Pokemon Breeder - to evolve into Alakazam and Blastoise
3 Item Finder - get back Professor Oak or Pokemon Breeder
3 Bill - Draw 2 cards
3 Pokemon Trader - get the right evolutions faster
2 Super Energy Removal - since Raindance gets energy back faster, you should use this
2 Energy Removal - when you don't want to discard energy
2 Energy Retrieval - get back discarded energy
2 Gust of Wind - board control
2 Switch - board control
1 Scoop Up - board control and healing
2 Pluspower - makes 2-hit-kos, one-hit-kos
Energy: 12
12 :water:Water Energy - to get them onto Blastoise primarily in order to attack
