Hey everyone this is my first deck.It needs lots of help.

20 Pokemon
4 Pichu lets play
2 Elekid playful punch
4 Voltorb which one?
4 Electrode aqua
2 doduo lc
2 dodrio lc
2 tyrogue

23 trainers
4 elms
2 seer
3 copycat
4 bill
4 focus band
4 electric cube [bow]
2 volunteers

17 Energy
14 electric
2 warp
1 boost

Strategy is simple use electrodes power with the help of dodrio to power up pichu or elekid. If nesscarry use lets play to get babies. While powering up pichu use playful punch.

We need to get some electric in the discard to start those electrodes working - lets add in 2 juggler and take out the seers.

Remove 2 of the babies (1 elekid and 1 pichu or 1 tyrogue and 1 pichu) and add in 2 cleffa - still needed to get "restarted".

Boost will be a nice last minute suprise from Dodrio. Warp is always useful.

Sideline idea is to drop a few cards for 2 Pokemon Center. Electrode will get your energy back. Damage is easily taken care of then.

Great deck. It really has a tendency to own your opponent.

watch out for fire decks. They make this deck weep.

Actually a variation of this deck is my current favorite.

Here are a couple of things I'd do (that doesnt mean they're right).

-- 6 electric babies seems excessive. I'd cut back to probably 3 Pichus and lose the Elekids.

-- I'd go with a 3/2 Dodrio line -- add a 3rd doduo.

-- I think there's too much energy for this deck. I'd drop the boost and the warp also. They don't do much for this deck (I know, I'm disagreeing with Meg45)

So it's
+1 Doduo
-3 Electric babies
-3 Energy

Add in the PokeCenters and some Double gust

+3 Pokemon Center
+2 Double Gust

I'd also probably look at some other drawing cards. Prof Elms Training Methods does well here since you have so many evolutions. Pokemon Traders are absolutely necessary.

I'll have to disagree with Meganium 45 asbout the Juggler in this deck. I tried it and it never seemed to work. If you have only 14 energies it's hard to get a Juggler and 2 energy in your hand early in the game. It's great when it works, but seemingly never does.

As for the Voltorb, the AQ 50 HP is best. It's actually pretty bad, but the best of a bad lot.

One other note, I've seen or heard of 2 other variations of this deck. The one I use has the AQ Executor as the main hitter with about 3 Lightning Cubes as backup. That gives 2 different types with the ability to generate the same type of attack. Another uses the AQ Water type Lanturn that for the same effect.

One more thing....

I think this type of deck has good potential as a Team deck. Both players playing identical decks. Keep a Pichu out front, share trainers and Pokemon Powers, occasionally blast. The nice thing is you have 8 lightning cubes to take only 6 prizes....

I know this is stupid but I thought they ruled that u could only use your own poke-powers in TMP. No sharing as far as I know.

(This might be wrong so don't shoot me)
