well since sandshrew left i have had no mentour to teach me how to build a decent rogue deck (without his ideas im nothing) so there was a deck e posted a couple months ago with a few tweeks...

ode to sandshrew: v2.0

pokemon: x18
x2 donphan
x2 phanpy
x2 forretress
x2 pineco
x2 hitmontop
x3 tyrogue
x2 elekid
x2 cleffa
x1 pichu (prommo #35)

trainers: x23
x4 professor elm
x3 bill
x2 trader
x2 cpu search
x2 time capsule
x2 d. gust
x2 switch
x3 focus band
x3 berry

NRG's: x19
x13 fighting
x4 rainbow
x2 metal

The main strat is the same as what it was in rocket sand's deck. You first stall with the babies and use cpu search trader and prommo pichus attack to get them out fast... Once you get them you power up and get out a donphan a foretres and a hitmontop... then you start with the rapid spins and the babie switching... realy it speaks for itself and is a realy sucessful deck hope you reply and give me some tips considering im taking this to a tournie this coming tuesday... thanks see ya.

I see the problem with evolution chain.I took out the pineco & forretress line to make you concentrate.Removing the chain means removing the need for Grass & Metal energy.

I change to 4 Phanpy & 3 Donphan.I add one Switch to finish off the empty spot.Change the removed energy(Grass & metal) to fighting energy.

I suggest you playtest it with as many deck as you can.Did it work?If not,tell me.Like Mindy Lambkee,did your Donphan hardly get attacked?

Oh, Babyporter works (there's a league in WI that will attest to that). Taking out the Pineco line is probably a good idea-the typing just doesn't need to be that complicated.

lol thanks guys i dont know if i should take out the forretress because if i can get 2 out its power is good because it keeps them from retreating the next turn or if they do its just more damage... do you still think i should... thanks for the help and coments i apreciate

If you go with the forretress, add at least 1/1 more. I run 3 Donphan & 4 forretress. Getting 3 out is complete prevention of double gust once they have a baby out -- double gust becomes, 'bring out the poke I tell you, then knock out the baby of your choice' (unless it has a metal nrg). Also, use the 'tackle' Pineco since its attack is 2 colorless.

If you skip the forretress, or just keep its level as is, consider Hitmonlee! Stretch kick can help you finish off pokes weakened with R/S & Spikes. The suprise is that when the Tyrogue stays upright through the counterattack, you drop 'lee and another fighting and ko something on the bench.

Ditch the CPU search (MF) a couple Prof. Oak's research. You really need draw to get this set up fast.

sauron the reason why i said that is because he is the one who made the first rogue deck i ever saw... and this is not a copy of his deck its actualy quit different... for instance he never had foretris.... and i dont think that he had the prommo pichu to get out the babys to complete the strat... any ways the cpu is there to help find the nrg pokemon i need and i put it in there because of it being in unlimited...
