This deck
19 Pokemon
3Gyr Sky
3Magi Sky
3Alakazam 2LC 1Exp
1Kadab Exp
3Abra Sky
3Cleffa
2Tyrogue
1Magby NG

16 Energy
8 Psycic
3 Rain
2 Water
3 Boost

25 Trainers
3 Elm
2 Gold B
3 Copycat
3 D Gust
3 Switch
3 P Nurse
1 Town Vol
2 Breeder
2 Fan Club
3 F Band

The idea for this desck is to use the Zam's damage swap & F Bands/Gold Berries with Gyrodos to do some major damage. Boost can power Gyrodos instantly and provide some suprise value if evolved when karp is active. Exp Zam can also do some heavy D if needed as backup.

Any ideas are welcome......

I am working on both a similar deck discussed last week

http://boards.wizards.com/tcg-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=77;t=007722

and a version using L Dragonite to enable the boost to stay attached. People's opinions vary on whether it will work better to heal with Gold Berrys or rely on Bands and swap the damage away. My gut feeling is that IF you take out their only Pokemon of any threat you have time to swap. Quite a few decks though build several threats at the same time. I ran metal and dark to make the deck more flexible, along with Strength Charms to enable OHKO on some big stage 2's. I'll be playtesting it soon, as I just obtained the cards needed to build last Sat. (and I rarely do apprentice anymore...heck...is there even a patch available for these new sets [Confused] )
