The idea of this deck is pretty simple. Start out with Eevee preferably. Maybe some Seedots benched. Use call to bring out Seedot. Next turn candy the Seedot. If your lucky T2 Jolteon ex. Utilize Jolt and Shiftry's free retreat. Mainly attack with Shiftry, but Jolteon's 1st attack is killer in this deck. Continuously spread damage with stacked Shiftry's and Jolt's power. Snipe the bench for up to 90. Thinking about teching in Espy.

You have a 39% shot at no Eevee. Aside from sheer draw, you only have the 3 Mentors to find more basics. Playing Holon Transceiver (3), Mentor (2), Adventurer (2), TVR (2) is more flexible than Mentor (3), Bill (3), TVR (3).

Holon Circle is interesting. I'm wondering if a game of chicken ensues over who will deck first. You have no Farmer, so it may be you. In this circumstance, I wonder if Holon Circle helps or hurts.

I have tested many times. I had the deck built for months now. I just didnt know whether to use it or Catty. But seeing as how Catty, Swampert and Banette are all very popular. And all have powers, i would take advantage of it with Shiftry. So far, ive been able to T2 Shiftry almost all the time. Jolt comes T2-3.

Holon Circle takes advantage of the fact that i dont always have to attack to do damage. By simply using Shiftry and Jolt, they'll eventually have to attack before me.

loganium-you earned a warning buddy :]

I posted under the assumption that any improvement, no matter how miniscule, would be a good improvement. If you are satisfied with the deck, why post it? Have you even tried it my way? There may be good reasons to dismiss what I say, but I haven't heard any, yet. It is extemely difficult to measure small improvements by play-testing. And, I see now that you've added Holon Engine.

In this game of chicken, your foe isn't going to be using any powers, so Shiftry isn't going to doing any damage. The amount of damage you can do with Jolteon will be limited. At any rate, you aren't going to win all your foe's prizes, and if you deck first you lose. And, I see now that you've added Farmer.

You stole my deck!
I built this deck out of bordom on OCTGN today and later found you building it. Oh well. You beat me to posting it but i still want some credit for thinking up this strategy. lol. It should work i like the deck. Should be more deadly to pokemon with pokepowers with Cursed Stone.
 
if we wanna yell cheat cheat you stole my deck i think i have the oldest shiftry ex post on the gym... i could be wrong ( defie me lol) any way its a good list ex heavy . but still good the lack of Curse stone makes me wonder what stadiums works best for this deck. and i'd have to say stump. if you can stump lock them and then reak havoc on the bench

Mm... nah, if you have Cursed Stone out in play, then your own Jolteon EX would take damage as well. Only have Shiftry EX with Cursed Stone if you don't have any other pokemon with Poke-Powers.
 
In my opinion, Holon Circle is bad. But I can´t find any other good gyms...may be you could try no gyms and 4 Windstorm...
 
Actually use LM Seedot. You can search for any kind of energy, and then use CG's Nuzleaf for the Self Charge. ;-)
