Night Maintenance - Trainer

Search your discard pile for 3 in any combination of Pokemon and Basic Energy cards, show them to your opponent, and shuffle them into your deck.

Bebe’s Network – Supporter Card

Choose 1 card from your hand and shuffle it into your deck. Then, search your deck for a Pokemon card, show it to your opponent, and put it in your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward.

You can play 1 Supporter card during your turn. Place this card next to your Active Pokemon. At the end of your turn, discard this card.

Team Galactic’s Bet – Supporter Card

Each player shuffles his or her hand into his or her deck. Then the players play rock paper scissors. The winner draws a new hand of up to 6 cards, and the loser draws a new hand of up to 3 cards (you draw your cards first).

You can play 1 Supporter card during your turn. Place this card next to your Active Pokemon. At the end of your turn, discard this card.

Hamana’s Research – Supporter

Search your deck for up to 2 in any combination of Basic Pokemon cards and Basic Energy cards, show them to your opponent, and put them in your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward.

You can only use 1 Supporter card during your turn. To use it, place it next to your Active Pokemon, and discard it at the end of your turn


ok, this is a BLS style strategy, i like the Neorant cause it can drag up big stuff and smack them fgor alot, depending on energy, and then you get the energy back into your hand to use again with blastoise's power. i LOVE stantler's ability to search for a trainer w/o any energy and that shuckle is gonna be so broken next format. crawdaunt ex is your normal beatstick and Blastoise d gets rid of weakness. any suggestions?

robbie the thing is u get one big blow then u have to wait..... but maybe with the new metagame it will be good cause maybe u can drag up somethign they are building up then OHKO it. i have no fixes
 
I don't see this working, I think it will be to slow to deal with fast hard hitting decks to be very good. It looks like a deck that sounds good in theory, but when you actualy play it, it dosn't work as well as you first thought.(I have had lots of experince with this problem) Cradunt ex could be good, but is an ex, and i am not sure how well any ex will do next season with the new cards. Youre trainers look good, but I would re-consider youre pkmn lines and posibly look for a main attacker that dosn't have a prize card penelty. You could consider trying Salamence DP3. That with a damage spreader to get 20-30 damage on everyone early one could be scarry. :eek: good luck trying to get it to work though. :thumb:
 
lol, nice bump. this was one of those decks where you feel you have said too much and want it to go away too :p.

made som changes to the list since last time...

Pokemon: 20

3 Squirtle DP3
2 Wartortle DP3
2 Blastoise DP3
1 Blastoise CG (Water)

2 Keikouo DP2
2 Neorant DP2

2 Corphish CG
2 Crawdaunt ex CG

3 Stantler DP3

1 Shuckle DP3


Trainers:25

3 Celio's Network
2 Bebe's Network
3 Rare Candy
3 TVR
2 Windstorm
2 Warp Point
2 Night Maintenance
4 Hamana's Research
2 Team Galactic's Bet
2 Steven's Advice

Energy: 15

13 Water Energy
2 Multi Energy

thats the list as of now.
 
Just a thought, but how about running Holon Circle since Blastiose ends your turn. That way your opponent can't take full advantage of the power's downside.
 
or if they place their own stadium, which more often happens. But i'd say to up stantler to 4, it'll be your ideal starter. It has a slow set up, but stantler/budew/mawile/etc. will definitely speed it up

nbc we tried it with nidoqueen,it just couldnt keep up or ever get ahead. The deck is a nice idea,but without salamence dp3 out,then it isnt ready,but the deck is fun.
