Hello, trainers. I would like to contribute some viable decks that everyone and I can use to do well at upcoming state championships. I will be posting these decks in a "chain".

Here is the first and most obvious deck - Blaziken Ownage:

Pokemon (25):
4x Torchic DR
2x Combusken (Flare)
3x Blaziken (Firestarter)
2x Blaziken ex
4x Dunsparce SS
2x Team Aqua's Electrike (Self Attach)
2x Team Aqua's Manetric (Power Shift)
2x Skitty (Lullaby / Double Edge)
2x Delcatty (Energy Draw)
2x Rayquaza ex

Trainers (17):
4x Oracle
4x TV Reporter
3x Prof. Oak's Research
3x Rare Candy
1x Town Volunteers
1x Switch
1x Warp Point

Energies (18):
13x Fire Energy
2x Multi Energy
3x Lightning Energy

Strategy: Use Dunsparce 1st turn to set up necessary components - Torchic's, Skitty, and Team Aqua's Electrike. Then through draw and search power, get out Blaziken with Firestarter, TA's Manetric, and Delcatty. With the components set up, start building Blaziken ex or Rayquaza ex to quickly win the game. If you need to start with a "bad" Pokemon, like Rayquaza ex, then use Switch or Warp Point ASAP.

Card Choices: I chose to run 2 Blaziken ex because I can't have only one copy ending up in my prize cards. I seriously prefer the Skitty with Lullaby and Mirror-Running Errand to both thin the deck and stall if I have to start with one. Also, I cut down Prof. Oak's Research by one because I tend to have huge hands anyway. It would be a serious statistical disadvantage to have to throw the hand back for 5 cards, other than emergency situations. Finally, 3x Rare Candy should be sufficient for the Blaziken lines.

Please offer any suggestions and comments. I'll be posting more ideas very soon.

-2 eletrike
-2 manectric
-1 lightning
-1 multi

+1 warp point
+1 switch
+1 candy
+1 por
+2 reversal

thats the best list right now, using no tric/amphy wins in mirrors where they use tric/amphy, cause u have an extra slot for a blazi to power up and therefore u are faster than ur opponent

Reversal

It's like one o-clock here so it could be that I'm just tired but since when has two reversals become standred in BR? I know the new ruling change but wouldn't those cards be better off as something a little more useful?

dude willam youve got it right dont change anything its almost perfect only thing i would do is take out one quaza for a copycat most people use catty meaning you will almost always get a big hand from it thats what i did in my BAR deck and it has worked really good good luck at states make us proud ;)
 
My fix is right on. obv if he has 2 blazex because hes afraid of losing 1 in prizes, he shouldnt have just 1 rayex too right ? just logical. besides, the whole point of this deck is BAR - xfering light energy to RAYex, whats the point w/ only 1 ray ;/ Besides, I already have a +1 copycat to match up delcatty's speed draw. Go with my fix if any ~ GL in states Will, win one of us :D
