Too many.) -3 Cleffa (Neo Genesis) -1 Focus Band -1 Double Gust -1 Professor Elm -1 Pokémon Center -1 Psychic Energy +2 Cleffa (Promo) +3 Energy Stadium (Neo Destiny) +4 Fire Energy From: DataDyne | Registered: May 2003  |  IP: Logged Prof. Douglas Zuver Member # 91104 posted July 14, 2003 06:57 AM             A very interesting deck Espeon. I wonder did you consider using Boost Energy? Drop Scyther on the table, attach a Boost, do 80 damage to Kabutops...surprise, surprise... Good against water when Flareon would not be used, and if you are facing Grass you can place the Boost energy on Flareon, who also needs three colorless energy for its main attack (called "Burn Booster" perhaps TPC designer were trying to give us a hint...) Another possibility is adding Shining Mewtwo since you are using both Fire and Psychic energy in your deck. Also a possibility is adding Horsea AQ#85 with "Reverse Thrust" (two colorless) against fire.

I didn't forget it was useless on Scyther. Thanks Dendrobatia, Espeon PS Dendrology means the scientific study of trees. So does DendroBATia mean something about the study of SR Crobats hanging upside down in trees? Doug's library is so inadequate... -------------------- "A pokemon's true power is found within."--Mew (Pokemon the First Movie) From: Fort Pierce, Florida | Registered: Jun 2002  |  IP: Logged Dendrobatida Member # 140617 posted July 14, 2003 10:03 AM             Strangely enough, oh master trainer of all things eeveelution, I never even thought of the bat in the name and the connection to Noccromancer. Hey, though, that's just more karmic goodness for me. Dendrobates: The scientific genus of most poison arrow tree frogs (or, to some, poison dart frogs). Thus, dendrobatida: poison arrow tree frogs, in general. The little guys are kind of my totem animal, if you believe in that sort of thing. I suppose I could have also called myself phyllobatida (another sub-genus of poison arrow tree frogs), but "Dendro" as a nickname sounded better than "Phyllo". Kinda makes one wonder why I don't run a politoed deck.... Can you tell I'm a sixth grade science teacher yet?
