Anyone up for making a TV edition of the Pokémon TCG?

Wow! Thank you all for your recommendations. The boys are definitely taking them to heart. The boys are on a mission to get their hands on those cards you mentioned!
I was wondering, though... (Remember, we're new!)... Why/How is "Double Gust" good? If your opponent gets to pick which one of your Pokemon to switch, how can that be good?.... Also, I was wondering about Cleffa. I noticed that a few of you suggested including Cleffa in the decks. Isn't Cleffa a Pokemon with a really small HP? I was wondering what purpose Cleffa would serve.
Please note that I am not questioning your choices. I'm sure there are reasons to have those cards (Double Gust * Cleffa) in the decks, I am merely trying to understand... (and pick up some strategy, too!)..... I am sure we're missing something about those cards... Please enlighten us!

Cleffa's just useless space that could be used for more worthwhile cards. I put just worthwhile cards in the decks, like Smoochum and Copycat. I even gave Water combat into the decks.

Cleffa is just simply a great card.
Although it has only 30HP it has that baby rule so when they attack cleffa(as long as its active), they have to flip a coin and if tails there attack doesnt work.
What is does is just simply great. Shuffle your hand then draw 7 is just really good. You can use it if you have nothing good in your hand, when you are trying to build a powerful Evolution on the bench, or just to try to prevent your opponent from attacking you.
Its worth playing 2 to 4 cleffa in each deck.
