I'm not much one for Fire types so this is my first Fire based deck and I think my Stratagy slipped from what I intended!
Pokemon: Magcargo x3 Slugma(lv27) x3 L. Flareon x2 Eevee(lv14) x3 Entei(lv38) x1 Entei(lv37) x1 Entei(lv24) x1 Forretress x2 Pineco(lv13) x3 Elekid x2 Cleffa x1 Total:22
Trainers: Elm x2 Computer error x2 Lucky Stadium x1 Focus Band x2 Energy Stadium x3 Super Energy Retrieval x2 Total:12
Energy: Fire x20 Metal x3 Recycle x3 Total:26
Just a reminder, this deck can only use cards from Neo sets and up and with Promos!
Ok. Now, Of course my stratagy is to power up Magcargo with Entei and L. Flareon but they can still take care of themselves! On a good turn, I can attack a Fire to Eevee, flip heads and use Warm up to start powering up my Benched Magcargo! Of course, Using Holo-Entei's Power, I can fully power him up on first turn!
I threw in Elekid and Pineco to tech against water types but then I realized Forretress can add protection against Shifting Pokemon.
My Energy is abit limited but like I said I don't know what is a good amount because I don't use fire decks. The Recycle for free retreating and or course the Metal is for Forretress!
My real problem is the trainers. Being limited only to Neos and Promos, My Trainers are a bit shallow so I focused on cards to help get energies out and on my Pokemon. I'm also not sure if Fire decks work well with many Trainser so I tried to keep their number small! I also Don't have any Healing Trainers nor am I sure I even need them!
What do you guys think? [ April 28, 2002, 03:37 PM: Message edited by: SilverArticuno ]

Pokemon:(22) Magcargo x4 Slugma(rev) x4 Entei(holo)(Rev) x4 Elekid x1 Eevee(promo) x3 Light Flareon x2 Cleffa x4
Trainers:(18) Elm x4 Focus Band x4 Energy Stadium x3 Time Capsule x2 Pokemon Breeder Fields x3 Healing Powder x2
Energy:(20) Fire x20
Needed more speed, and dark forretress jut didnt fit. Also the revalations Entei(holo) is just the better of the entei's. Use him to put more fire on your magcargo's/slugma's. Light Flareon also does do a nice job of putting energy on them as well. Healing Powder is one of the only defenses against Dark Gengar in this format...hope it helps.
Questions? AIM me.

You're right, my version is a little slow and all but I just wanted to try something completely different then the Typical Magcargo deck.
Also, I Only have 1 of each Entei so That's why I put in Computer Error. It does helps me get more energies like Entei does but also helps my Opponent too! It also doesn't Attach them either but at lease I don't have to worry about discarding needed cards!
Also, I meant (M) Forretress, not Dark Forretress! Of course I wouldn't use D. Forretress with out Grass and Darkness energies! Or even a Rocket's Hideout for that matter!
Besides! This is something that not many people would expect and that gives an edge!
