Energy (15)

4 Special {D}
2 {C}{C}

Strategy: Try to use Zoroark as my starter to help get the cards I need (Nasty Plot) and attack (Foul Play), Tyranitar will be my heavy hitter, and Umbreon of course is gonna be somewhat untouchable in this format. I got Mandibuzz in here because its simply nasty

The Problem I have with this deck when I first used it is I decked nearly decked out. soo I need to know what could I add to help prevent this from happening again?

I will say the (15) Energies are perfect for this deck

Thanks again,
Zach

If you're having problems decking out, you could throw out the professor juniper, since it not only makes you draw a large number of cards, but also puts the cards in your hand in the discard pile (not back in your deck as a refresher). If you want to replace it with another hand refresher, you could use judge since you shuffle your hand into your deck and draw not as many cards, in addition to potentially screwing your opponent over.
 
RE: Total Darkness (Tyranitar, Umbreon, and Zoroark) HGSS ON

My only question is this:

Why only 1 Rare Candy. Also why the Poke gear and Interviewers Questions?

This deck doesn't need that many Energy to be efficient so try this.

I've got the changes in bold.

T/S/S (25)
2 Revive
2 Pokegear 2 Dual Ball
3 Switch
2 PONT
2 Team Rockets Trickery
2 Flower Shop Lady
1 Twins
3 Pokemon Communication
1 Rare Candy 2 Rare Candy
1 Professor Juniper 2 Judge
2 Interviewers Questions (This gets changed with the Juniper)
3 Pokemon Collectors
2 Seekers

This should improve consistency overall.
 
RE: Total Darkness (Tyranitar, Umbreon, and Zoroark) HGSS ON

Ok kool. I was thinking dual ball when I was building this deck. But what should I take out for another candy?
 
RE: Total Darkness (Tyranitar, Umbreon, and Zoroark) HGSS ON

So heres a detailed look of the changes which I should've done in the first place LOL.

-2 Interviewers Questions
-2 Poke Gear
-1 Juniper

+1 Candy
+2 Dual Ball
+2 Judge

This is probably easier to read. I was just making that post quick because I had to do something lol :p
 
RE: Total Darkness (Tyranitar, Umbreon, and Zoroark) HGSS ON

I would try this
-2-2 Umbreon
-2 Team rockets trickery
-1 Switch
-1 Flower shop lady
+2-2 Mandibuzz
+1-1-1 Tyranitar (line should be 3-2-3 IMO)
+1 Pokemon communication

Try this apart from these changes the deck looks good.
 
Good deck list but I like Stantler as starter and only 2 collector , stantler dies and you use twins .. But ya , good luck !
 
Thank you. Stantler won't be bad but I have to 22 pokemon as it is. Zoroark is my ideal starter because I could use foul play for attack or nasty plot to help set up
 
Your point about machamp prime is invalid because why woould he even bother to discard energy when he can just OHKO you with champ buster
