How to Dialga lock-proof Rampardos?

Could a Zangoose or two do the same thing?

Lots of good suggestions here,guys. Thanks for the input. However, is there one thing that can stop G decks cold that I could tech?

Mewtwo LV X could work (until they get Dialga LV X out).

Besides the 1-1-1 Machamp, there isnt really a way, even though a machamp line would slow your deck down. I suggest letting your sister play a difefrent deck or dealing with it. After RR dialga wont be much of a threat anymore anyways.

It DOES work on your bench so Poke Blower+ wouldn't do anything for you.

He was thinking you could bring it active and kill it.

We tried Ramparchamp, and it didn't turn out so nice.

She wants something that is fast, consistent, and hits hard while surviving late game. Kingdra and Machamp are the obvious choices, but she says Kingdra isn't powerful enough and Machamp is too flippy. Any suggestions? I was thinking maybe spread decks, but the transition from speed to set-up might be too drastic. Well, we have all summer to practice anyways. Suggestions?

Sorry, I couldn't resist. Anyways, you could technically just throw in some more warp points. Then just hope it finally ends. Or you could tech in a few Mightyena LA as a possible starter. Darkrai MD is also good for insta-sleep.

Bad idea. I don't like many techs in Rampardos since it slows down the deck and IMO defeats the purpose.

Yes, techs in Rampardos generally just slow things down. My sister runs a 4-3-4 Rampardos line with 1 Uxie, and she still gets Uxie starts like 1/4 of the time. T_T
