Here is an intersting fun deck that is mono style and can be an interesting little toothy critter.


Pokemon 9
4 Sandile (DEX)
2 Krokorok (BLW)
3 Krookodile (DEX)

Trainers 37
4 Juniper
4 Bianca
4 N

4 Catcher
4 Dark Patch
2 Dark Claw
4 Junk Arm
4 Rare Candy
4 Ultra Ball
1 Super Rod
2 Switch

Energy 14
4 DCE
4 Special Dark
6 Dark

Alright, basic premise is to get Krooks out and rolling. With Patch and Claw, you can Catcher something up and lock them in place. This is based on the fact many attempt to utilize no witch style cards with Darkrai now and also because Eels likes the retreating for Cycling. His beefy 150 HP helps keep them alive. I consider Seeker, but hopefully you will be able to lock things in place and take exes for your non ex. Krook does base 60, with Claw you get to 80 and a special Dark makes it 90. That 2 hots most Exes and you can keep them locked. Make sure you grab the non powered Exes early, and you have another situation with his second attack. 2 Prizes taken nets 80 base, 100 with a Claw, 110 Special Dark!

Terrakion can be an issue as they can OHKO after a KO. BUt that is where you have to be tricky with your locks! Have Fun Trainers!!

Would two more Junk Arms be good to allow more reuse of Catchers (since this is the main strategy, and also more reuse of any Dark Patch or Dark Claw in the discard?

Also Zoroark (BW) with a Dark Claw and a special Dark will OHKO a Zekrom EX or Reshiram EX (150 + 20 + 10 = 180) but then also think about having a Fliptini as you will do 80 Damage to yourself against a Reshiram EX if you don’t get a heads! As Stage one and only two energy needed this is a fast start while you get the krookodiles set up!

Meant for the Claw to be 2 and JA to be 4. Fixed.

4-4-4 is not need as most of the time you will be sacking your first dile.
 
Another thought is maybe some Rescue Enegy to put your KO'd Pokemon back into your hand to reuse (given these are stage 2 lines I find this is very helpful).
Also maybe PONTS rather then Junipers as then you wont be discarding Pokemon you can not afford to discard given this is your olny line.
 
This deck is definitely fun and different but I just got wooped 5 games in a row by a reshiboar deck haha (using this deck)
