Rampario?

[SuicidalPikachu]

i been seeing alot of Rampario lists running around so i thought i should try to make a list myself.

Pokemon: 15

3 Rampardos MT
4 Cranidos MT

4 Riolu DP
3 Lucario DP
1 Lucario lv.X MT

Trainers: 31

4 Skull Fossil
4 Celio's Network
2 Fossil Excavator
4 Castaway
3 CC
2 Buffer Piece
1 Strength Charm
2 PP
3 Steven's Advice
3 TGW
1 Warp Point
2 Night Maintenance

Energy: 14

12 Fighting Energy
2 DRE

ok, the strategy is to get either Lucario or Cranidos up ASAP and use Aura Sphere/Steamroll for awhile, then you bring up Rampardos and just Assurance their pokemon down to nothing. You can also use Rampardos's 2nd attack to get rid of those big things like Blissey/Magmortar, etc.

Humm.. why 4 Cranidos?.... You know you can Rare Candy from a fossil....

Scramble can be your best friend as well

-2 fighting
+ 2 Scramble....

4 cranidos because the idea is to be using steamroll/aura sphere most of the game and then just cleaning up w/ assurance.

fossils + new ruleing = bad.

I would just use Empoleon, you don't risk a deadly fossil start.

With this kind of deck I would be very worried about getting benched. Also it seems like if your strategy is to use a lot of Aura Sphere/Steam Roll, you could benefit from scramble energy on the Lv.X or on Rampardos

I think you covered what you need to cover so dont change it.

I've tried a deck like this before and Scrambles don't really work too well, since Riolu/Lucario will probably have taken out 1-2 of your opponent's Pokemon before getting KO'd.

What about using Budew as a starter to get your Fossils out?

that would change it from rampardos and lucario to empoleon and lucario they are different decks knucklehead!
thanks for spelling ruling wrong, dingus
hurricane is a foolish idea
