Bored At Work Deck #2

I get bored at work a lot. To pass the time and stay awake, I imagine ptcg decks featuring cards that are generally considered unplayable. How is this different from the decks in the feature articles on this blog? The bored at work decks have never been tested!

BAWD #2 - Junk Typhoon

Pokemon - 20

4 - Sableye

4 - Froakie
2 - Frogadier
3 - Greninja

2 - Horsea
1 - Seadra
2 - Kingdra

1 - Duskull
0 - Dusclops
1 - Dusknoir

Supporters - 12

4 - N
4 - Shauna
2 - Colress
2 - Skyla

Items - 17

3 - Rare Candy
3 - Hypnotoxic Laser
2 - Level Ball
2 - Evo Soda
2 - Professor's Letter
1 - Super Rod
1 - Ultra Ball
1 - Energy Retrieval
1 - Random Receiver

1 - Computer Search

Energy - 11

7 - Water
4 - Rainbow

X&Y is out! Let's celebrate!!!!

This deck uses Sableye and Lasers to stall the opponent while setting up Greninja to spread damage. Eventually Kingdra will come online and blast all of the water energy back into the deck. You then have the option of retreating into sableye to resume the junk hunt/water shuriken combo, or you can use Kingdras tri attack to put even more damage onto the field.

The major flaw in this deck is obvious: to run optimally, you will need to set up 3+ stage 2 pokemon. There are a lot of people out there who will say this cannot be done. I am not only here to assure you that it CAN, but also that it will be a lot more effective and entertaining than the Emboar/Blaziken/Infernape builds I keep running into on ptcgo.

Remember kids: there is a difference between going rogue, and just wasting everyone's time.
