Because with Revive, the Pokemon goes directly to the bench.

First up is Goth Girl. Yeah, it has a great Body and awesome artwork. But it has to be Active, and its attack sucks. Not worth the Body if you can't do the damage, IMO.

This got me thinking... I wonder if it would work with Gengar AR 16 (Shadow Skip) and Dodrio UD to get the RC off of Gothruzelle. That 130 HP Stage 2 can take a couple hits. The problem is it would be very very clunky, but it would stop all Goods cards on your opponent's turn whilst doing net 70/turn, 90 w/ E-Belt. I think it could open a pretty wide range of possibilities if you attack with Gengar and switch to Goth, free retreat to Gengar again, rinse and repeat.

Ehh, I think spiritomb fills that slot very well. It's a basic, and it can be used as a starter and a "bouncer".

That could work, but it's a little slow. If only we had claydol....

@minimidget, that's true. But I think the extra 70 HP would help.
