Hi everyone, I'm working on a new deck and i would love some constructive criticism sooooo here it is. :smile:

THE WALL



Pokemon: 21
3 evee (call for family)
2 leafeon (1 with spiral drain, 1 with bind down because those are the cards i have)
1 leafeon lvl x
4 armor fossil
2 shieldon MT
4 bastiodon MT
2 baltoy
2 claydol
1 azelf LA

Trainers: 26
4 rare candy
4 roseanne's research
4 fossil excavator
4 plus power
1 night maintenance
3 bebe's search
1 luxury ball
1 premier ball
2 conductive quarry
2 warp point

Energy: 13
4 special :metal: energies
4 :metal: energy
5 :grass: energy

Strategy
Alrighty so the plan is to quickly get out my bastiodon with the use of claydol, my supporters and rare candy and get out my leafeon lvl x thanks to claydol, my supporters and premier ball. At the same time i of course will be giving my pokemon energies which will be doubled in speed by leafeon lvl x's "energy forcing". Now here is the key part of this deck, bastiodon's :pbody: "protective WALL (hence the deck name heh) which prevents all damage done to your benched pokemon by your opponents attacks." Now while the rest of your pokemon are nice and comfortable on the bench they will also be nice and safe letting you concentrate on attacking with "anger revenge" which hits for 60 or possibly more because of the plus powers and does 40 damage to an opposing benched pokemon of your choice provided you took damage your last turn. Another fun bit of information is that the special :metal: energies reduce damage by 10 so more or less it adds to bastiodon's 130 hit points quite nicely.

Well there it is lemme know whatcha think. :biggrin:
 
seems like a well thought out deck, good job but i have one thing to say.....
LEAFEON LV.X FTW! :thumb::thumb::thumb: but on a serious note i would take out the lone night maintnence for a uxie because you can never have 2 much draw power but thats about the only thing that i could think of.
 
Thanks for the complement and yes leafeon is AWESOME :thumb:!!! as for uxie i would've included him if i had 1 lol, buuut i did come across some cash $$$$ so i might look into getting 1 :biggrin:
 
awesome let me know how the deck works i might try a deck with bastiodon also i totally frogot about his pokebody :tongue:
 
Your biggest problem is going to be Dialga G Lvl X. It will turn off Bastiodon's body, and lots of people will be running it. This will open your bench back up.
 
I have been playing around with Bastidon for a while now and have had the most success running Steelix-SF and 4 Energy Link.

You might try it and see how you like it.
 
I would suggest dropping teh Plus Powers for your current build and instead add a line of Poke Healer+. Since Bastiodon has high amount of HP its perfect for it, especially with Special Metals attached, because once your opponent has wasted a good amount of turns racking up a great deal of damage you can just take 8 off like that. Also I do not believe Plus Powers are all that needed because since its Body gives your bench immunity you dont need to worry about things like Kingdra harming you, and with 2 Special Metals on its only doing 40 to you after discarding 2 cards. Also it gives you more chance to rack up damage on their bench since teh current active may survive 1 turn more, meaning that teh newly promoted Pokemon will survive even shorter.
 
Thanks for all the helpful responses guys!

-As for dialga G lvl x he's definitely gonna be pretty nasty but I'm not too worried about it because i really only built this deck with the current cards in mind :tongue:, but if it's a successful deck i'll adjust it when platinum comes out.

-also i really like the poke healer idea so i'm totally gonna run with it!

-and last but not least the steelix bastiodon combo definitely sounds mean but i don't have any steelix at the moment, besides i need leafeon to get those energies out quick.

anything else??
 
palkia lv x cancels out the anger revenge so youll only do 60 for 3 energies...
and also the dialga G?
that's alot to worry about...
maybe putting in a couple lookers?
