Here's a deck I have been playing lately for fun...but when it sets up right, can be downright wicked...especially with the amount of Dark or Darkness type Pokes around lately. It has obvious weaknesses, but that's where you fine people come into the picture. (Puts on his Hypno-Beam eyeglasses [Eek!] )You WILL look at the deck list and you WILL provide suggestions to make it stronger still (w/out altering the focus TOO much)lol.
A Light Beating Please
4 Machop (N4)
4 Light Machoke(Gentle Kick is pretty good)
3 Light Machamp(Not only can Beatdown on a head DESTROY your opponent's dark, but when played smart, TagTeam can heal your active Krow or Choke that has taken some damage)
3 Cleffa
2 Gligar(with a flip ignores Focus Bands...hasn't worked too well)
2 Murkrow( Finishes off benched Pokes w/in KO range..also typical Krow lock strategies)
18 Pokemon
4 Elm
3 Erika
2 Master Ball (go ahead and suggest Wrath..I won't listen [Razz] )
3 Gold Berry
2 Focus Band
3 Double Gust
3 Balloon Berry
2 Healing Field
1 Energy Charge
23 Trainers
12 Holo Fighting Energy..one signed by DMTM (Doh!)
4 Dark Energy (Use em on anyone for that "kick"..that's one reason I have more berries than focus)
2 Full heal (deck's already weak enough to Dark Gengar)
1 Miracle (yes...I have actually used this)
19 Energy
So do me a favor folks...and work on the deck
's psy weakness and such...throw in some good suggestions..but DON'T hand me YOUR deck...K?
Thanks

Hey 'Naut.

-1 Energy Charge
+1 Focus Band

Energy Charge isn't needed in Modified, especially without Wrath.

Well, the reasoning was to attempt to regain the miracle energy and perhaps a dark with it. Having another band would be nice tho...thanks Sticks

Naut - A couple of us have been playtesting this card to death (Light Machamp). The raw power that his card has is awesome. Just think 3 fightning for 50 damage or a possible 100 Damage against a Dark. That is just insane.

In Booster draft Light Machoke deck is awesome. Its one 2 Booster drafts so far in our area using a Rocket-Destiny format. Its been paired up with Dark Muk and then Light Dewgong to cover Dewgongs weakness to Lightning.

Unfortunately time and time again it falls hard to Psychic: Dark Gengar, Holo Espeon, Dark Espeon, MP Mewtwo which are big in our area. I've recently teamed Light Machamp up with instead of Krow with the low 50 Hp, but instead with Neo Destiny Chansey and Blissey. Blissey's power fully adds to the whole healing effect of the deck. It may be 2 many evos for ya but I found Gligar useless with all the anti-Gatr grass decks.

Im not gonna tell ya what to take out and put back in because you are already a great deck builder. I just want to offer the idea of Chansey/Blissey. Using those alone can beat Dark Gengar. Remember have 3-4 Gyms because those Sprout Towers are still played and it totally kills Chansey/Blissey.

Professor Blaze:
The more I think about it the more I like the Chansey/Blissey idea. And so ya know, running two evo lines in a deck is NOT something I shy away from. Great idea.
RockShrew: Playtesting will commence this week on the next version of the deck. rest assured I will tech a Smeargle in there. Also a good idea.
THIS is what the deck forum is all about folks...great input guys.
