Start off with Groundon and use Drought to attach 2 energies to your Groudon. Then next turn proceed attackin with Groudons Huge Quake by discarding 2 energies on him. Rhperiors job comes in handy later but not a great card in the beginning. After you keep discarding energy after energy to the discard pile. Rhperior can then use Toss Up for 60 to return all the fighting energies thats discarded back into the deck. Next turn when you have Rhyperior out after you have returned a bunch of fighting energies to the deck. You follow up with Hand crush and can easily deal 150 or more!!!!!

Heres the translation's

Groudon LV.45 - Fighting - HP100
Basic Pokemon

[.] Drought: Attach up to 2 Basic Fighting Energy from your hand to 1 of your Pokemon.
[F][F][C] Huge Quake: 100 damage. Discard 2 Fighting Energy attached to Groudon and do 10 damage to each of your Benched Pokemon.

Weakness: Grass (x2)
Resistance: Lightning (-20)
Retreat: 3

Rhyperior LV.X - Fighting - HP170
Level-Up

[.] Hard Crush: Discard 5 cards from the top of your deck. This attack does 50 damage for each Energy discarded in this way.
[F][F][C] Toss Up: 60 damage. Remove all Fighting Energy from your discard pile, show them to your opponent, and return them to your deck. Shuffle your deck afterward.

Weakness: Water (x2)
Resistance: Lightning (-20)
Retreat: 4
 
Hmm...100 damage is nice right off the bat if you can do it T2, but it weakens your bench, and repeated use sort of leaves your Pokemon open to sniping from Empoleon or Magmotar. Rhyperior Lv X is good though.
 
I think Groudon should be used on it's own, as a T2 deck, because it hurts your Bench. Rhyperior should be used on it's own if it comes out when we don't have Mantine with alot of Draw Trainers and discard Trainers. That's my opponinion.
