Pokemon 18
4 Reshiram
2 Promo 7 Tepig
1 BW 17 Pignite
2 Ability Emboar
1-1 RDL
2 Vulpix UL
2 Ninetails CoL

Trainers 28
4 Pokemon Communication
2 Rare Candy
2 PlusPower
4 Pokemon Reversal/Catcher
4 Switch (In anticipation of catcher)
3 Junk Arm
4 Energy Retrieval
3 Pokemon Collector
1 Professor Elm's Training Method
3 Professor Oak's New Theory
1 Flower Shop Lady/Super Rod

Energy 14
10 Fire Energy
2 Lightning Energy
2 Rescue Energy


This list is built in anticipation of future sets. Reshiram is your main attacker and you use it to attack with Blue Flare or in certain situation you use outrage. Blue Flare energies are recovered using Energy retrievals and through typloshion. Emboar is what helps power up your attacker through energy acceleration and Ninetails is the decks draw. So ya. Help me please!
 
Get rid of the 1-1-1 Typhlosion line and 2 DCE for 3 Junk Arms and 2 Fire Energy. Reduce the number of some of the trainers and add in a fisherman or 2 also.
 
I don't like fishermen. I'd rather use ER of FSPs/SuperRods. Also I want typhlosion there for late game energy acceleration. And I think my energy lines are fine. Besides I need DCE to power up Outrage.
 
You shouldn't be planning to use outrage at all. If the deck sets up well you should be using blue flare every turn. Right now you can only get 8 energies back to your hand. You need either junk arm or fisherman to keep the blue flares going.

I would say Typhlosion will be useless around a third of the time. Getting a 1-1-1 line set up with only 2 rare candies will be hard. Also, you'll end up prizing a piece of that line more often than not. I would rather use those spots to either get my set up done faster or get energy back in my hand. Typhlosion also only puts 1 energy on Reshiram, you still need another one to use blue flare.
 
Fine. I'll add the junk arms. But I still think that I should keep the DCE. Or if anything should I replace them with rescues?
 
Rescues would be much better than DCE. I would still try to add another fire or 2 though.
 
With only two lightnings, you aren't going to be able to charge up rdl very often if at all. For a back-up attacker, try badboar (non-ability emboar). Thicken your emboar line by getting rid of rdl and lightnings if that's what you choose.
