Lucario GL ?
Pachirisu GE?
My own quirky stuff that I end up putting in EVERY DECK...
Warp Energy
Dusk Ball
Super Scoop Up
______ by the way _______
This is , kind of , a poll. But, we're trying to help with the built in "WHY" of limited budget and must seek specific cards.
We need to put a "WHY" by cards to de-poll-ize this thread.
Like this...
Lucario GL = 1 in each of your decks will allow you to DOUBLE your opponents weakness if possible. This could lead to a game-saving 1 shot knock out of your opponents giant!
Super Scoop Up = it's a flip, but it gets the active up and out of the way if you don't have a warp point or switch. THe most OBVIOUS reason you'd use this card is to pull up a damaged pokemon and, therefore, waste your opponents attacks.
Dusk Ball = adds speed to the deck. It gives you 7 cards to choose from. If you can't find something in there you need, your build may be to varied.

Thanks Rogue Archetype!
The kind of info you put into your examples would be really helpful to me, since I don't seem to have much aptitude for figuring out how these cards work on my own :redface:
So, if any of you who have already posted are still following this thread, I'd sure be grateful if you would take a minute or two more to add the WHYS to your original posts, like Rogue Archetype did in his examples:

Go by this list, except add 4 Call Energy to the "Needed for Tournament Decks".

I'd definatly say Uxies LA are must haves in a tournament deck, because when you play them down, you draw cards until you have 7 cards in your hand. Claydols GE are key in many decks out there by every turn putting up to 2 cards under your deck and drawing up to 6. Some decks have both Uxies and Claydols while others just have either Claydols or Uxies. But I'd definatly say that most decks out there have either one of them.
Uh, a lot of people have given their own (mediocre) lists IMO. The first one I saw was pretty good. Here's really the bare minimum in (most) decks right now:
4 Roseanne's Research
4 Bebe's Search
1 Luxury Ball
2 Baltoy
2 Claydol
1 Uxie
1 Azelf
2 Unown G
1 Night Maintenance
Other cards I would strongly suggest in a lot of decks:
1 Chatot
2 Cynthia's Feelings
4 Call Energy
For SP decks, the obvious 4 Cyrus/4 Energy Gain/4 Power Spray/4 Poketurn.
Stage 2 decks require 4 Rare Candy and 4 Broken Time Space.
