Downfall

[BondiBorg]

Hey all, Bondi here. This is a deck that I've been toying with for a month or two now, never posted it though...I've been saving it for something big, such as moving to our lovely new board. ^_^

Downfall
Pokémon 14
4 Omanyte {Sandstorm}
4 Omastar {Sandstorm}
3 Cleffa {Neo1}
2 Tyrogue {Neo2}
1 Brock's Mankage {Gym1}

Trainers 34
4 Computer Search
4 Item Finder
3 Professor Oak
3 Rocket Sneak Attack
3 Lass
3 Underground Lake
3 Super Energy Removal
2 Energy Removal
2 Gold Berry
2 Professor Elm's Training Method
2 Gust of Wind
1 Misty's Tears
1 Town Volunteers
1 Switch

Energy 12
8 Water
4 Double Colorless

First turn, use CPU/IF/Oak to get an Omanyte into the discard, and Underground Lake onto the field. Then, use Team Assembly. By the start of turn 2, I've got 4 Omanytes in play. Drop a DCE, evolve to Omastar, attack for 50. Third turn, 70. Whenever an Omanyte or Omastar hits the discard, it can be bounced back into play with Underground Lake. If an Omastar has two Water on it, then putting a DCE on it provides a 40-damage boost.

Fixes and suggestions are welcome. Contact me on AIM if you'd like to talk about it with me directly.

Edit: Just tweaking to accomodate Dogg's fix.

Bondi, you're a mod now, eh? You never fail to suprise me. ;)

As for you deck, I see your idea at hand, and I think that it's very good. Just to suggest, might take out a Rocket's Sneak Attack for, say, a Misty's Tears? That way, you can get an Omanyte in the discard, and get back two Water Energies (if the oppertunity comes along).

For anybody new around here, Dogg is the man with a fix for every deck...one truly l33t player. ^_^

While I like the 3 RSA, I'll try ditching a Gold Berry for a Misty's Tears. Great idea, dude.

Any other suggestions?

[BJJ763]

Actually i think Misty's Wrath would work much better than Misty's Tears. ;)

[BondiBorg]

Wrath is a tad too destructive...also, with my luck, I'd end up drawing 4 Omastar and 3 Oaks for the 7. x_X

Tears is more along the lines of what I need, since I can toss whatever I need to, preferably an Omanyte, and get 2 Water to boot. ^_^

Great deck, Bondi.. Those OmaStars are so STRONG! Much better than those dark blastoises. And underground lake rule too... Only small fix:

-1 ER/SER
+1 Fisherman

U don't have big amount of supporters in this deck so 1 fisherman would work good. Cause after few ER/SER or Oaks u may have much water E in discard. Also u may think about:

-1 Brock's Mankage
+1 Gust of Wind

So u won't have to waste an attack for slowking...

C ya and congratulations
U've found such a great pokemon...

Hey Bondi. I typed a long reply to this last night, but a server error lost it for me. This time I'll be more brief. Talk to me on AIM if you want more explanation for any of the fix.

-1 Mankage
+1 Magby

Unless you can Lass before Mankage, they just Switch out. It's worth it in Slowking as you have your own to stop their Switches, but it's not worth it here. Sputter/SER/Lass will leave them sitting long enough for you to set up and take out Sneasel- running Slowking out of attacking options.

-2 Elm's Training Method
+2 Recycle Energy

You'll need the Recycles to SER continually and Elm's Method isn't getting you anything the Computer Search can't. Your draw engine is big enough, no need to take more space on this.

-1 Tyrogue
+1 Ditto

You run 4 DCE, the easy counter to Sneasel is too nice to pass up. Also, it'll up the odds of recovering if they Cleffa/Lass you early game.

-1 Water
-1 RSA/Lass
+2 Pluspower

Gives you an OHKO on Wiggly and the second turn KO on Sneasel...both useful things as Furret will laugh and Center when you hit for 70. With the Recycle and Misty's Tears you can get away with 7 Water, and 3/2 on the disruption stuff should be passable.
