GO FISH!

3-2-3-1 Flygon Lv X RR (Sure...go ahead and use whichever Trapinch and Vibrava you want!)
2-2 Palkia Lv X GE
2-2 Lumineon SF (Fin Luster)
2-2 Claydol
2 Unown G
23 Pokemon

4 Bebe's Search
4 Roseanne's Research
4 Poke'drawer
4 Switch
2 Rare Candy
2 Night Maintenance
2 Premier Ball
1 Luxury Ball
23 Trainers/Supporters

6 Water Energy :water:
4 Fighting Energy :fighting:
4 Call Energy :colorless
14 Energy

Strategy:

Easy set up and play. Allows disruption and Lv X assault.

Palkia Lv X Restructures the heck out of their team.

Flygon is there to attack and take out Lv X's.

Lumineon is a tech to fish easy targets into active position to attack, using Switches to move Lumineon back to bench.

Flygon's Rainbow Float allows free retreat to Palkia or Lumineon after you use Restructure.

Power Swing can hit for 90 or more if you have three Lumineon/Claydol on your bench.

Come on people, someone must have a suggestion for me...please?

I even renamed the deck to add some pizzazz! Oh, man, now I want some pizza after typing that, don't you?!

I think taking out lumineon for a 1-1 mewtwo X for SPs and to force dialga to be leveled up and then extreme attack it.
Use the other 2 cards to make 3-3 claydol for consistency and to replace lumineon for evolved pokemon.

Thanks for the suggestion Happiny. However, I like the Lumineon as a sneak attack now and then. Do you get how it works? I did think about adding a Mewtwo X and get its advantage against SP decks, but it's complicating this deck. I can already force Dialga X out with restructure, right? Adding Mewtwo would mean adding psychic energies to the deck to be able to free retreat the Mewtwo also, and if you have it with Palkia, you're down to a max of 3 bench spots for evolved pokemon to boost Flygon's Power Swing.

I think you should just decide whether you want a disruption deck, or an SP counter deck. This is a disruption deck.

Sorry, misread that. I like Mewtwo in the deck, just not sure how to shuffle it in and hate to lose the fish. Maybe you're right.

BTW, how does Mewtwo force Dialga G to level up?

BTW, how does Mewtwo force Dialga G to level up?

Because if Dialga Lv X isn't out to shut off Mewtwo Lv Xs Psybarrier, no SP pokemon can attack Mewtwo at all.

Of course, thanks FunnyBear. Knew the answer was right in front of my nose. Was thinking that was a Power on Mewtwo not a Body.

stadiums??
i think you can add some BTS if you like =]

 

[mcynet]

I agree BTS for speed is a must also
I would add level max so you can get your X's out and level up on the bench.

 

[silent swordsman LV3]

no point, you can retreat to palkia
Level it up
and retreat for free
thanks to flygon

Good idea...let me see if I can work a couple in.

You only need a 2-1 Palkia Lv.X line. So i'd put in an Azelf, which is really cruical if you rely on small lines of Pokemon.

Also, i'd play looker's to increase the chance of actually grabbing a Pokemon with Lumineon. any good player will just use claydol to put basics they don't need under their deck.

Thanks Shino Bug Master. Could put in Looker's. It doesn't work as well as you think though because you also have to have a switch to use Lumineon and Looker's requires that either you or your opponent shuffles and redraws. This messes you up if you don't get another switch, or if your opponent had basics and then gets rid of them during the shuffle/redraw, right?

Also, don't like Azelf. Flygon X is not necessary and I've never failed to have at least 1 each of Palkia and Lv X with the 2-2. With the Azelf, I have to have a psychic on my bench that I either can't retreat after restructure (no psychic energies) or I have to also add Psychic energies and set that up....hassle that I don't see is worth it. Am I missing something?

^But think of every time one of your Pokemon is knocked out. You can send up Lumineon, use it's power, then restructure

azelf's time walk allows you to grab any prized Pokemon. Even playing 2 of a card, you will have games where they are both prized. in addition, you can reorder your prize cards how you want to. since you can pretty much get a prize when you need to, it's not a bad deal to have

You make a compelling case. Wasn't thinking about the ability to "reorder" the prizes, which makes sense. It just totally screws up restructure though.
