Reshiboar(Reshiram/Emboar) HGSS-On (Updated)

Pokemon: 19

3 Reshiram BW
3-2-3 Emboar BW (2 Ability, 1 Flare Blitz)
2-2 Ninetales HGSS/CoL
4 Cleffa HGSS/CoL

Trainers: 27

4 Energy Retrieval
1 Flower Shop Lady
2 Rare Candy
2 Interviewer's Questions
3 Pokemon Collector
3 Revive
2 Professor Oak's New Theory
3 Pokemon Communication
2 Junk Arm
4 PlusPower
1 Switch

Energy: 14

4 Double Colorless Energy
10 Fire Energy

Strategy: Get Reshiram and Emboar out as quickly as possible, hopefully by the second or third turn. Not many pokemon can survive Reshiram's Blue Flare, but if you can outspeed your opponent, you should have nothing to worry about.

All advice is appreciated, Thanks!

Personally at first Glance I don't know what to take out but. Somethings you could add would help out the deck:

1 Promo Shuckle
2 DCE

What the promo Shuckle is for is draw. I understand that you already have ninetails but with shuckle you can reuse the energy this sugesstion is my personal opinion. I would just advise you to test the two and see which one is better for you.

That sounds good I'm thinking

-1 Fisherman
+1 Promo Shuckle

Since I already have 3 energy retrieval, 3 fisherman is not needed

^LOL. Look at your avatar (profile picture). This could be a Pokemon to add.

I say -2 Flower Shop Lady, you don't need to return anything to the deck, ever. 2 Revive + 4 Reshiram and you're good for pretty much the entire game. Also, -2 Fisherman. Energy Retrieval is all you need to get back energies.

That being said, I would +3 Junk Arm and +1 Energy Retrieval. You will never run out of Energy, and there are a lot of dead draws in this deck once it sets up that you can pitch with Junk Arm, like all the rare candies, collectors, elm's, etc. Basically, once you are set-up, all you need are Energy Retrievals and Revives.

Also, take out the 2 Rescue for 2 more Fire. Reshiram won't die very often in this build with the SSU's and Seekers, so with 4 Reshiram and 2 Revives you should always have one out.

Hope some of this helped. I haven't tested the deck much, but that seems to be working pretty well so far. Plus, I guess I'm biased for Junk Arm, it's one of the best cards in format IMO.

Wow I posted an extremely similar deck, Dodrio and everything. It's true, great minds really do think alike. :D
