So how well would this combo work? I love gengar and love running cursegar or vilegar :) but lately in my local area alot of people run tyranitar prime decks...and my gengar's don't like that at all!

My current deck I'm running which is a temp deck while I get some vileplums, poke collectors and some other staples to get my vilegar back up and running has

4 - spiritomb for trainer lock start
1 gengar AR
1 gengar SF
1 gengar prime
1 gengar lvl X
2 doduo
2 dodrio

the doduo/drio combo is to free retreat tombs, use the trainers I want and then bring the tomb back out (I know unknown Q does this but this way I don't risk giving away two prizes) would it be totally stupid to add like a 2/1/2 machamp line in? I only have machamp that does 40dmg +10 for each energy so with 3 fighting energy (needs 3 energy for attack) and an E-belt that's 180 DMG with T-tar's x2 weakness

so I guess my question is, is genchamp still viable? And if so can someone give me some ideas on an appropriate decklist

also the doduo/drio would cover machamps retreat cost should he need to come back to bench
 
I wouldn't bother with those Machamps.You should try to find a Promocroak or 2.You would also have more space in the deck.
 
How are you going to get your tomb back to active after retreating him that turn? You know you can only retreat once per turn, right?
 
switch or warp point could do the trick...

cole'a; are you running Vilegar or straight Gengar? if you are running VileGar you might have more trubble fitting in a line Machamp but if you are running straight Gengar you COULD tech in a 2-1-2 line and a few fighting energies.
 
I was running straight gengar, but lastnight at my local traded everything I needed to run straight Vilegar, So I will be running that now :D

Also watched a vilegar beat a t-tar prime deck that same night
So I think I will stick with straight Vilegar, I have seen it beat t-tar so I know I can, just a hard matchup that needs to be played smart

As above, I have both warp energy and switches that could have been used
but have now changed to straight Vilegar, I just enjoy it alot more :D It's more fun to play :D
