Pokemon: 3
3 Celebi ex
2 Aipom UF

Energy:4
4 Recycle energy

Trainers: 51
4 Claw Fossil
4 Mysterious Fossil
4 Root Fossil
4 Erika
4 Bill
4 Item Finder
4 Lt. Surge ??? (i think secret mission) (the thing that puts 1 card from your hand to the field face down- counts as fossil)
3 Proffessor Elm
4 Tickling Machine (YOU HEARD ME! :p)
4 Computer Search
4 Mr. Fuji
4 Scoop Up
4 Super Scoop Up

Now, the (MEAN) strategy:
Stall with fossil...Play 6 fossil on the field, play 4 erikas, leave opponent draw 12 cards, use his draw so he only has 1 card in his deck, thinking he will reshuffle with Oaks Revenge or something, and then you Play Tickling machine, putting his hand down. He cant retrieve cards (nightly garbage run) so he can only KO your fossil. Next turn, deckout.

Celebi ex gives you more fossils and super/scoop up gets you use it loads of times. BUT! To prevent YOURSELF from deckouting, play it, put Fuji on the deck, next turn use fuji to put celebi in deck. You dont deckout, opponent do. Aipom=Draw the celebi ex card and prevents decking out O.O

Recycle energy: Use Comp. Search and itemfinder, discard recycle and get it back! So you actually dont loose any card at all!

Use Lt. Surges secret Plan, to put recycle energy on the field as fossil and when it gets KOd, it gets back to your hand!

I made this in my mind in 2 minutes, rough draw and all. But I think it has MAJOR potential!

deck them out...cause you wont!
 
This would be great, but you have a problem you may not be aware of. Though unlimited isn't played much these days, it is a format dominated right now by two cards: Vileplume EX and, as always, Slowking. In an unlimited tournament, I'd estimate that if you played 6 rounds, you'd face at least 4 decks running those cards. And they kill this deck, hardcore. Another incredibly popular card is Lass, and if you go second, you stand a very good chance of losing your entire hand, or doing so at any point (many points with opponent item finders) over the course of the game. A muk, another quite popular card in unlimited, shuts down your ability to use celebi and aipom. That spells doom for any sort of deck like this.
 
Unbeatable deck? :lol: the last deck of yours I looked at zapper, was the deck even you defined as "Stupid":biggrin:

Besides, ITS NOT MODIFIED!!
 
It depends on how serious the opponant is, on the whole this deck beats mediocre unlimited players, but the top tier wons could beat this easily. Also its LT Surges secret plan, and tickling machine requires a flip so I'm not a fan. There are better ways to stall than this IMHO(Mulligan Mewtwo lol!)
 
i agree this deck is very hard to beat



Wait it is opposite day my bad. But really though i dont like this deck because it isnt modified and also no deck is ever unbeatble it just depends on how good the opponet is. Have fun with this !!!!!!!!!!!!!UNBEATABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DECK.
 
#1 Erika says your opponent may draw up to 3
#2 Tickling Machime works on a flip
#3 You can't discard Recycle Energies for Oaks, Computer Searches, Item Finders and get them back because the card says discard from play.

Also as mentioned before a turn 1 Lass/Eeek followed up by Slowkings wreck you completely. There's also other things like Chaos Gym, Houndoom UF, etc...
 
summary:
top tier destroys it
flaws(Erika, tickle- don't always work)
fun
may beat kids at leage, but won't win tournys

good try
 
I posted this deck a few months ago on the Team R forums.

Here's the full artcle I posted:



INFINITY
The Everlasting Deck
(Unlimited)


(Just so we don't have any confusion: This is my deck. Do not post it anywhere and do not present it to people claiming it as your own.)

So, a while ago I was looking at some overlooked cards, trying to find the new Queendom or Magma, and I found an utterly broken combo; it's too bad that it's an unlimited combo.

So, what is INFINITY? Infinity is a deck that was created back in the Gym series, using Nightly Garbage Run to put energies and Pokemon back into your deck, then Trash Exchange to get all the NGRs back into your deck, creating a (possibly) infinite loop, and a deck made to win by stalling. Afterall, if your deck CAN NOT run out of cards, your opponent will deck eventually. The problem with this deck was its entire dependance on what you keep in your deck after Trash Exchange. The deck never made it very far, because stall decks suck with time limits.

But INFINITY is back.

Without further adou...the list.


Pokemon: 13
4 Totodile
2 Croconaw
4 Feraligator-ex
3 Celebi-ex

Energy: 6
2 Water
4 Recycle

Trainers: 41
2 Pokemon Tower
2 High Pressure System
4 ER
4 SER
4 Pokemon Center
3 Rare Candy
4 Bill
4 Erika
4 Item Finder
4 CPU Search
2 Oak
2 Trash Exchange
2 Mr Fuji


Yeah. There you go. I guess a short explanation is in order...

Pokemon: Celebi-ex is the most important thing in the deck. Without it, you can't win. But his purpose comes later. Feraligator-ex has two purposes. First off, he has enough HP to survive virtually any attack. With Pokemon Center, 1 can last you pretty much the whole game. If you need to, you can retreat it (2 after HPS) and use Mr Fuji on it. Also, Feraligator shuts off virtually ALL powers in the Unlimited game. Fossil Muk has one of the most disruptive powers EVER, and Feraligator shuts it off (providing you get Feraligator out first). It also shuts down Rain Dance, Ninjask/Aerodactyle, and every deck I can think of (except 1, we'll get there in a minute).

Energy: Very simple energy. The Recycles are so you can use SER and get your energy right back. Water are so you can attack, if you ever need to. That won't be often, so we only play 2.

Trainers: 4/4 SER/ER line may seem a little excesive, but it is very important to the deck. Keep using ERs to get rid of whatever energy your opponent puts in play. They should run completely out of energy very fast. From then on, you just stall indefinatelly. Trash Exchange gets your ERs back if you use them all early. Pokemon Tower is used to discard you opponents Recycle Energies. Many decks play them, without any way to get them back. We play extremely high draw to get Feraligator-ex out ASAP. That accounts for all but 1 trainer.

Now we get to...The most important part! The combo that makes INFINITY work.

Mr. Fuji and Celebi-ex. IMO, the most broken combo to ever exist. Here's how it goes: You have 1 Fuji in your discard (very important), and after discarding all of your opponents energy, the two of you have just been drawing cards monotonously for a dozen turns or more, waiting for the other to deck out. Well, eventually you draw your final card, and just when your opponent starts to celebrate at their victory, you lay down Celebi-ex, putting Fuji on top of your deck. See it yet? The combo is now in play. Your opponent can't win. Next turn you draw fuji, and use it to put Celebi-ex back in your deck. Next turn, you draw Celebi-ex and use it to put Fuji back in your deck. Next turn you draw Fuji...etc. etc. The loop is INFINITE. You can continue playing for a year and NEVER DECK OUT!! This is what makes INFINITY work, and this is what makes it virtually invincible.


INFINITY does have one huge weakness, however, and that's Vileplume-ex. The only card on Earth that can stop it. (Muk-ex could do it also, but no one plays that as long as Fossil Muk is around.) I'm sorry, but Vilex is an auto-loss. I've been trying to find a way around Vilex, but it's not working very well. The most promising card I've seen is the new Lati@s-delta, which shuts off the bodies of all evolved Pokemon. But those are GOW bait, meaning they'll only be in play for a turn or two.

Well, I think this deck shows great promise, and I'd like it if you could find it worth your time to give it a look, and concider how broken INFINITY truely is.


There. That's how the deck SHOULD be played.

I am not accusing you. I just wanted to show my version.


I'm not going to demand being known as a decks 'creator' because I despise people like that. But since the deck has been posted out in the open; why shouldn't I post my version?
 
I said that I am not acusing you ^^

Your version is nice as well, but a simple KO of gatr could demand you to death...
