why not just take all that stuff out and tech in an exploud to get rid of the weakness? and an alakazam for power cancel to get rid of that pesky bright look and dark palm. you would just need alot more water energy and you'd be pumpin four cards out of your hand every turn and powering the aqua stream that much faster.
 
actually i really like that alakazam idea but no so much the exploud idea. i would like to put it in but how many and what to take out?
 
you can do without a belt or two, if two then there's your alakazam, or you could do -1 belt and minus the TSD. i'll find my old list and post it so you can dissect it and make it to your liking.i played two alakazam. it's crazy good late game to drain six energy a turn out of your hand and to cancel any cosmics or crobat drops.
 
seriously get rid of crobat. pluspower in kingdra>crobat every game. much more versatile and can all be used in the same turn on one attacker and doesn't take bench space from claydol/backup kingdra/nidoqueen/blisseyprime/flygon or whatever you're running with it. crobat is just asking to get sniped off for easy prizes after you've layed them all down and poketurned them. plus with belt you can be doing 120 on a 4 pluspower drop with 20 to the bench and be powering up aqua stream. I'd say that's more important, as the only drawback to kingdra is high damage output. other than that the guys above me have some good tips.
 
amirlo-k thanks did u ever top or win a tournamnet? sure post it up or pm me ot if u dont want people to see it.

dizzavis-i think the crobats are use full cause they can be used for the free retreat and for extra damage. plus i have problems with [plus power cause for one u can only use it for one turn and poketurn can be used at any time.
 
poketurn can only be used once as well, and with the amount of other guys you want to run crobat just uses up bench space.
 
using poketurns+ crobats is alot different than just using plus powers because the plus powers just help take out the active, but in this situation i think hes aiming for bench kos, so i say stick with the crobats for now unless you think of something better.
 
yeah thats what i am doing cause plus powers are used for one reason to take out the active when crobats can be used for anything.
 
Tech in dusknoir for more spread, or else kingdra's +20 to a bench gets destroyed by nidoqueen- bats won't help that at all either. Kingdra can spread, but more often than not it won't get bench KO's due to the amount of nidoqueen/blisseyprime that will be in every meta. Bats are used more often than not on high hp actives that kingdrabelt can't KO with 80 alone, and then sit on the bench. Pluspower helps with all of this, as does dusknoir. It allows you to 1 shot something huge, without it being healed by Queen first.

You don't have to take my advice, I'm just saying what works against most decks from my experience with Kingdra varients. Try out the deck as much as you can, playtest, playtest, playtest, and figure out what works best for your personal style.
 
well those are all good ideas and i am thinking about them heavily. the duskinoir idea is stuck in my head now cause i really like it. but i dont have my duskinoir any more.
 
TSD in Kingdra? Well, I suppose... Anyway, you need 1 Azelf, 1 Mesprit, 3 Uxie and a Uxie LV.X in here to deal with annoying pokemon like Promocroak, and the AMU line does make the deck a lot more consistent. Plus, Crobat G and Skuntank G are only needed if Machamp LV.X and Gengar are common in your area.
