Deck 1:

Pokémons: 23
1 Infernape LV.X
1 Infernape IFDS
2 Infernape MD
1 Monferno MD
1 Chimchar LV.6 MD
2 Chimchar DP
2 Heatran LV.X
2 Heatran LV.47 LA
1 Typhlosion
1 Quilava
1 Cyndaquil
2 Drifblim IFDS
2 Drifloon MD
4 Farfetch´d IFDS
Trainers: 23
4 Rare Candy

3 Warp Point
1 Night Maintenance
1 Luxury Ball
4 Bebe´s Search
3 Buck´s Training
2 Felicity´s Drawing
2 Stark Mountain
Energies: 14
14 :fire: Energies

Strategy: Start with Farfetch´d and get the needed cards, then get Drifblim and set up Pokémons (moving the energies from Pokémons other than Chimchar to Heatran. Evo Chimchar and Cyndaquil with Candy (if there is only 1 in hand and Drifblim is not KO, use Place). When Drifblim is KO or you have all the basics needed get Heatran Active and Level Up it, then use Warp Point and get an Active Infernape with 3/4 Energies thanks to Stark Mountain + Heatran + Typhlosion Combo. Attack continuously with 120/160 damage and get another Infernape (if it´s the IFDS Infernape, use its Power, if heads, and use its 2nd attack to damage benched Pokémons).

Deck 1.

Fixes...
-1 Quilava
-1 Chimchar Lv.6(NEVER use this one.)
+1 Chimchar DP
+1 NM (Since you play 1 Infernape IFDS.
-3 Bubble Coat[(Don't see any viable water decks(and yes this tears Lumineon apart.)]
+3 SSU(Flame Dance+Mega Bravo=win!)

That's all, folks.
 
Night Maintenace isn´t needed: I won´t take all :fire: energies when I play Infernape IFDS.
Do you know Kingdra deck? Some Empoleons deck?
How can I win with Flame Dance+Mega Bravo?
Anyway, in my opinion deck 2 is more consistent and easier to get pokemons (with TM TS-1 and Roseanne´s , that I can search with Farfetch´d).

This is DP-IFDS, Kingdra won't see much play.
NM is for the Infernape IFDS!
Why don't you play deck 2 then?
 
I can only use Infernape´s Power once, when I play it. I said that when I play Infernape, I would have enough energies in the deck.
Anyway, you don´t answer how can I win with Flame Dance+Mega Bravo. I want to know.
