Sandstorm Azumarril w/Emerald Swampert. Drizzle a bunch of Energy 1st turn(may require a couple of Stone's Project too), then Water Cyclone them to your bench.
 
Hands down ive been defeated, You should play that at regionals, o yeah thats right you have to wait awhiel before you can play right?
 
someone already posted this but i really like the idea so here goes magcargo (smooth over) , camerupt ex, firestarter (blaziken).
 
A lighter? Battle Frontier is running rampant so it's body gets shutdown.100 HP isn't enough for a stage 1 EX.2 different type of energy just to do 70 isn't worth it.

I am just wondering how Battle Frontier can be rampant if the set isn't even out yet I was afraid of the card at first, but I saw the light that Battle Frontier isn't all that great and won't be played as much as we think.

its overrated. people are gonna pack their decks with it... then when they play against a deck that cant get abused by the bf thats wasted gyms. point of the story is people just need to not anticipate others will play(thus packing frontiers is) and just play a couple counter gyms, or cargo. i like the card and all but people will go to regionals and think they have some sort of advantage. they wont because most of the other people will play with the same idea i just mentioned. and now you have frontiers that work on nothing. its a good card but in reality its no different thatn any other gym. on another note... i think that the new gardy can be used like the old bellosom was in blaziken. seeing *** theres alot more things weak to psychic then grass.
 
All these decks with Stadiums in them... *takes advantage and builds Stadium Power Shiftry deck*

Anyway, I'm definitely gonna find a use for the Blaziken and Altaria EX(sadly, the best combo I thought up for these so far is Nosepass+Blaziken)
 
$md: Crystal Shards and a Magnetic Storm or two. The idea is to take advantage of the second attack to hit for 100 damage (since those will let you bypass or ignore the damage reduction of Fighting Resistance, but as the Resistance still exists Sky Kick should still get the extra 40 damage). From there, I'd recommend just looking for apprently solid Pokemon that don't need a lot of support to go with it. For that matter, since you really need Medex to be active, you might want to run just Dunsparce and maybe one or two other useful attack based "set-up" Pokemon, so that you can quickly get two into play (rendering Warp Point less useful).

Funny thing, if you look at my post. AFter prize packs were distributed for the main and secondary tournaments, I pulled a total of 3 Swampert and two Kyogre with Scary Face. XD
 
Don't ever use Bellossom or Gardy.... Heal Dance is pointless and 50/60 damage is not enough for it to be a good offensive tech..... so what's the use?

Also, Battle Frontier is illegal.
 
Blaziken with Team Magma's Hideout.

Try to get the stadium into play as fast as you can, then hit with Blaziken By 70/110 to every not-Magma Pokemon.

edit: eh??!?! battle frontier illegal? it must be a joke.

The latter part needs an explanation: the entire set (aside from reprints) isn't quite legal yet, but will be soon enough.

Your first statement goes against a lot of experience and popular theory. It may be true, but try to back up it. From my experience, one of the things that hamper's Gardevoir/Gardevoir ex decks is the accumulation of so much damage from Psyshadow unless one uses mostly Wynaut/Wobbuffet, which has its own problems. I and some others are looking at running the deck as a 2/2/2 split: two Psyshadow Gardevoir, two Healing Dance (note: obviously one is back up for the other), and two actual Gardevoir ex. We'll also try other variations, but the main idea is to make Psyshadow effectively free. It is more potent than it sounds...
