3 Eels and a Baby

My old thread kinda turned into some guy trolling and very little help.

Pokémon - 15
2 Zekrom
2 Mewtwo EX
1 Tornadus EX
1 Raikou EX
1 Thundurus
2 Tynamo NV 38
2 Tynamo NV 39
3 Eelektrik NV 40
1 Tyrogue

Trainers/Supporters - 32
4 Professor Juniper
4 Professor Oak's New Theory
3 N
1 Super Rod
3 Pokémon Catcher
2 Switch
4 Dual Ball
2 Level Ball
2 Plus Power
4 Junk Arm
2 Random Receiver
1 Skyarrow Bridge

Energy - 13
9 Lightning
4 Double Colorless

The deck is fairly simple, get an attacker going and have the next one ready on the bench while taking cheap prizes with turn two Power Blasts, Disaster Volt, heavy hitting X ball and if possible Bolt Strikes.

I will have a Raioku EX on hand soon so keep that in mind when suggesting what to add/remove.

This build did help me go 3-2 at Battle Road Outland missing the top cut because of Terrakions.

I'm not sure why you play Thundurus. Maybe I'm wrong, but while testing electric decks I pointed out that Thundurus is only usefull if you can get it on the first turn because disaster volt has the same attack cost than bolt strike, but it does 40 less damage.

It will most likely be switched out for Raikou EX

It's a good idea. You can use it to kill benched Eels without using cacher.

You only have 14 pokemon listed not 15. You need to add one more card for a 60 card deck.

IMHO Thundurus is still a good card for this deck list. If you get lucky enough to get it right away it has obvious advantage with charge/disaster volt combo. It is also a viable late game card that does 80 damage and avoids the 2 prize card EX price and worst case scenerio you can always junk arm it away without much regret. Also I would recommend getting rid of tyrogue as most people are going to 40hp tynamo's and tyrogue is within darkrai's reach.

My suggestions are:
- 1 tyrogue
- 1 N
- 1 DCE
- 1 catcher

+ 2 Raikou EX (can cycle 2 with SAB)
+ 2 Skyarrow Bridges (necessity for raikou as he will become a target if left out and you will have to burn an energy)

i agree that he needs atleast 1 + Sky bridge but it ain't neccesary for raikou he got the eels to bring back that energy. but with only 1 sky bridge you are atleast 1 short. same thing with raikou, playing 2 won't hurt you and tyrogue ain't neccesary at all. it is a free price for your opponents who play darkrai or yanmega if somebody is going to play that thing again.

-1 tyrogue
-1 N

+ raikou EX
+ skyarrow bridge
