This is a unique deck, yes I realize it get destroyed by Dialga G, but no one at my league plays that under-powered bad deck... Anyways, so here's the list :

Pokemon (22) :

0-2-3 Cradily
4-4 Cherrim
2-2 Claydol
2-2 Shaymin (Land lv.X x2)
1 Unown G

T/S/S (28) :

3 Root Fossil
3 Roseanne
3 bebe
3 Buck's Training
3 Fossil Excavator
3 Rare Candy
2 Plus Power
2 Warp Point
2 Night Main
1 Premier
1 Luxury
1 Broken Time-sapce
1 Miasma

Energy (10) :

10 Grass


Strategy is to set up a Shaymin X sit her on your bench and either get out a Cherrim or Cradily. Early Cherrim does alright with a free attack that hits for 30 and heals herself, she can last a few turns early game. Once you have Cradily set with 1 energy, send him out and pull out Claydols / other support from the bench (assuming no Unown G/Toxicroak), kill it and get full healed! :lol: "But Drain Down only do 30 damage!" yes, but that's why you have Cherrims/bucks/plus powers to boost it when you need to. Also with 160 hp (Shaymin X out) he's a tough opponent to kill.

Thoughts?
 
There was a guy at my league who ran this deck and it was absolutely devastating.
I hated playing it. D:
 
I understand the boost of Shay X (land), but when I ran cradily, I used 1 sky and 1 land forme. also, which Shaymin are you using [atk wise]?? I think I used #38 [land, non holo from pack].
 
Well, since root fossil is a trainer it's in the trainer section, maybe it would help to read deck list before posting. Also I'll try adding another candy, but I'll update list later its rather annoying on iPhone.
 
sorry dude, i know its a trainer, i just dont know why you wouldnt put it in the line, seeing as how its part of the line. everyone knows its not a pokemon, but for simplicity sake i would rather see it as part of the line that it is in. it seems easier for both the poster (you) and the one reading the post (me) no need to get your panties in a bunch.

as for the deck, i have played this variant, very effective. while it does get shot down by dialga G, thats its only HUGE counter. If your worried about that, throw in the new Arcanine from rising rivals as maybe a 2-2 tech or even a houndoom G as a tech to take out dialga G.

i would....

- 1 bebe fossil excavator is just as good for getting cradily
-1 rare candy
- 1-1 shaymin x
-1 baltoy
-3 grass energy

+ 2 fire energy
+ 1 azelf LA
+ 2-2 arcanine RR
+ 1 unown G your going to want your shaymin and your claydol G'd up to protect from gengar
 
Yeah I remember when I first saw the phenomenon of listing out an evolution tree like that. People just do not want to change and assume since it says trainer, it must be listed with trainers...and not where it intuitively makes sense to list it...with the tree.

Otherwise follows buds directions and your set.
