Thinking this was a Gengar deck? Sorry...it's not. [Big Grin]

Dark Mind
Modified Format

Pokemon: 12
4 Mewtwo (Promo)(Second turn Psyburn after Absorbing, pretty quick card)
2 Murkrow (Counter my weakness, and Lock capabilty, especially with Chaos in play)
2 Porygon (Rocket)(Anti-Steelix; and just is a cool card. Change their weakness, and him em for 80)
2 Cleffa (Drawing and support)
2 Pichu (Anti-Pokemon Powers)

Energy: 14
8 Psychic (Fuel for Mewtwo)
4 Darkness (Fuel for Murkrow; STK Pokes)
2 Rainbow (Fuel for anyone)

Trainers: 34
4 Professor Elm (Drawing)
4 Misty's Wrath (Drawing, get Energy in the discard for Mewtwo to absorb)
4 Focus Band (Help hang on against OHKOs)
4 Double Gust (Choose what I want, when I want it)
4 Rocket's Sneak Attack (Disruption)
4 Imposter Oak's Revenge (Disruption, get Energy in the discard for Mewtwo to absorb)
3 Erika (Drawing)
3 Nightly Garbage Run (Get back lost Energy/Pokes)
2 Chaos Gym (Anti-Gatr, Disruption)
2 Resistance Gym (Break Chaos, anti-Darkness)

==================================================
Strategy: Second turn Mewtwo, simple as that. Hit them with the hand Disruption, Wrath or IOR two Energy cards into the discard pile, Absorb turn 1. Next turn, attach a Darkness to KO the Basic, or power up something on your Bench (Like another Mewtwo or Murkrow). Once you're set up, and/or if they survive, play a Chaos if you can. Doing this leaves them in shambles, as they scramble for options. Meanwhile you build up Mewtwo(s) or Murkrow(s). Porygon can come into play against big Pokes so you can use your Mewtwo swarms to lay some serious damage down. Plus with Chaos in play, the opponent has a 50% chance of Double Gusting away the Conversion. The concept isn't hard at all. You can branch off into several ideas, but you need that disruption turn 1.

Whaddya think?

uhh...I think it needs...scoop ups, yeah that's it, but the deck is so insane, I can't find one slot to drop a card...I'd go -1 RSA +1 Scoop Up for starters...but I know you'll probably like to keep tha disruption [Wink]

So yeah, creative deck like whoa...u + mew2...I swear... [Big Grin]

nice deck d00d!

I dunno...looks OK...but the problem with Mewtwo/Scyther and now this is just not enough damage. Dunno how to fix it...or anything to do...except for 1...
-1 Misty's Wrath
+1 Secret Mission
I ran 3 Wrath/1 Mission in my Typhlosion instead of just Wrath. It's tech for those times when you have a ton of energy in your hand instead of in your deck...
If ya could think of something other than a Wrath to drop for it...it might be better.

see ur using Porygon...it became one of my faves after u showed it usefulness in ur Scizor deck. [Big Grin]

ur deck is basically disruption with quick damage in MP Mewtwo. good idea actually. the only problem here is that u can't cause enough damage to KO big pokemon like Stage 2s. Mewtwo as ur sole attacker may also not hold long against Big Fires and the such, even with Focus Band and all that disruption. Porygon helps, but still, a 50-50 chance of removing it is still forminable.

--------------------
that was my 2 cents. don't steal it or anything, it's just 2 cents, nothing more...
