Oh, I thought you were already running Claydol.

K. I'm done. I quit. I hate myself. I stink at life. I totally forgot to take into account that Electric Barrier protected from MY attacks...
 
Time for me to put on my motivational speaker hat.

Also, Cresselia Lv. X in a deck like this, ESPECIALLY with Crobat is downright house. Instant locking with Full Moon Dance - no need for Poketurn/SSU.
 
Sorry, I missed a definite article there.

"It is downright house."

From my understanding, this is its etymology. Things, at one point in time, were called horse, in slang, when they did lots of work, e.g., they were very good. Over time, due to accents and what have you, contractions, I don't know, horse became contracted to 'hoss'. And through some sick perversion of English, 'hoss' became 'house'. Thus, I said it's downright "house" because in the deck, it's a powerful card, or a card combo if you include Crobat, that does a lot of work late game.

The More You Know.
 
3-2-3 Ampharos (2 PT 1 SW)
3-3 Manectric
2-2 Claydol
1-1 Cresselia
1 Crobat G
1 Uxie
1 Unown G

Total: 23
------------

4 Bebe’s Search
4 Roseanne’s Research
4 Rare Candy
3 SSU
3 Warp Point
2 Poke Radar
2 Team Galactic’s HQ
2 Night Maintenance
1 Luxury
Total: 23
------------

8 Lightning Energy
4 Call Energy
Total: 12

That's how I'm going to run it.

On SSUs - they bail out Cressy/Claydol/etc when they've got damage on them and your power-lock is in play.
 
Ugh. This deck will probably fold to decks that don't rely on powers, 'cause Manectric won't do a thing, and doing 60 with Amhparos won't win games.

Second, Crobat is an all powerful demi-god of a pokemon card. all you need is ONE damage counter on a claydol, and it's utterly useless. Spiritomb can't do that. Also, poketurn on an SP > SSU. No Flip > Flip.

I love crobat G, but Amphy is over rated. It is good, but Dialga G, a basic Lv.x beats it. I do how ever LOVE manectric! It is my favourite card out of this set.

What about a Pachirisu GE tech for G decks. You could hit them for 40 and possibly discard multiple Energy Gains which would really hurt or at least slow down the opponent.
 
I have just started to play Ampharos too, and 1 thing that has been nagging at me is if to run claydol, if they have crobat then i use the claydol. Also have you tried teched Zapdos?

First of all, how are you going to play with 3 Amphy and only 2 Mareep. Second I don't see the reason for Crobat G, I mean to have it in there just to do damage to one poke is pointless. I would rather use spiritomb with scoop up's and take the risk. Other than that, Froslass is ok, and Lake boundry adds a nice touch to weakness. Oh, and the other good spreader should be Aboma of course.

the point od the crobat g is to start up damage. wen u play it u chose the pokemon to put dammage on, and insed of superscoop ups u play the turn up that allows u to return 1 sp pokemon to ur hand with ou the the fip is a garentee. so in conclustion play the crobats g
