that 120 per turn, with 4 slowking on the bench, then 80 with the slowking wen all ur tools have gone.

Peachyoto said:I play a Dark Slowking deck so that's why I can say all of this. =p Just Slowking, played it way before any of that voodoo crap came out, no offense to Voodoo players though. (Sorry Dark Umbreon *ducks* I know you like those decks, I think they're good but I just prefer Dark Slowking)
Prime said:HL offers nothing but steven's advice for a starter set. FRLG has Celio, Pidgeot, Bill's Maintenance, Prof. Oak's Research, and the starters. It is a base set. Now, if they rotate to it, that's another question. But I would put my money on FRLG.
Yeah I've been playing Dark Slowking for a long time now, and I definately see the great improvement it will get once Cursed Powder comes out, definately will be an even better contender. (although space seems to be already limited, so many great tools =p) Just want your opinion on something since you're a fellow Dark Slowking player =] but do you think the new Slowking will actually prove useful in the deck? I mean the power is good and the attack is nice, but it has some downfalls that I am not sure are worth it. First of all it needs a Slowpoke, so that limits the Dark Slowking swarm a bit, unless you use retriever for it but by then the power is still useful but not as great. Second, a great thing about Dark Slowking is that it gets out fast because of Rocket's Poke-ball. (I play 2 celio's and 3 rocket's poke-ball in mine I think, lol) We'd need to up the celio's more to get Slowking out quicker, but would that have an effect on the deck? I really don't know right now that's why I ask. Lastly, is this Slowking really that great of a backup? It has a maximum damage potential of 80, still weak to grass, and is still psychic. I think I'd prefer a different Pokemon as back-up just in case of weakness/resistance. I dunno, I'm like spacing out right now so if this post doesn't make sense, sorry.Dark Umbreon said:Hi Peachyoto,
I indeed love fast evil knievel decks and use Dark Slowking too. I do not use Voodoo at the moment. Used to run Dark Slowking decks since the release of Rocket Rocket returns. The deck is rather similar to Insanities back in the Neo environment. However, at the moment I do run one teched assistance line which happens to be two Banette due to the prevalence of special energies over here. Once Slowking is out he will replace Banette for sure. Some of the new tools assist Slowking decks a lot. Cursed Powder seems to be one of them. The one hit knock out issue holds for most stage two lines too here so this is not that much of an issue to me.
