Baseless Deck

[pmarckoue]

I named this deck "Baseless Deck" because the main pokemon have no base attack number.

Pokemon (17):
Lillipup (pickup) - x2
Lillipup (collect) - x2
Shaymin (Unleashed) - x2
Zorua - x4
Zoroark - x4
Mew Prime - x3

Trainers, Supporters, Stadiums (22):
Energy Retrieval - x3
Revive - x3
Switch - x1
Super Scoop Up - x1
Pokedex - x2
Energy Search x2
Pokemon Comm. - x3
Sage's Training - x2
Pkmn Collector - x2
Prof. Elm - x2
Team R's Trickery - x1

Energies (21):
Psychic - x14
Dark - x7

The idea of this deck, is to have on Zoroark in the lost zone for Mew to use Foul Play, then just spam Foul Play as much as I can. The only downfall is that this deck is based on your opponent's active pokemon's attack power. Any changes I should make?

My biggest issue with it is that Mew Prime only has 60 HP. How are you going to protect it?

 

[pmarckoue]

Yeah, I played it at my league today, and I had a problem with him too. I can't really think of anyway to protect it, except for using defenders, but those only last one turn.

 

[donavannj]

They also don't negate enough damage later on.

 

[pmarckoue]

Maybe they'll make an item that increases HP, like the expert belt, later on. Hopefully, Mew won't be cut out by that time.

 

[donavannj]

I think you'd be better off putting your own heavy attacker in that you Lost Zone.

i overall like this deck but what i saw was yes as donavannj said mew prime and for me was the trainer revive and that you only have one of some of your trainers or supporters i personally think you should not have one of those.

I see a few problems...
#- Mew's low health.
#-The Dependency on your opponents moves
#-What if your Opponent had the card Lost world?

I was thinking of switching some cards out for some Pokemon Reversals, and some Flower Shop Girls. I'm not too worried about lost world, because my plan is to only put one Zoroark in the Lost Zone.

 

[donavannj]

If Lost Zoning becomes a heavily used game mechanic, you're vulnerable because it only takes 6 Lost Zoned Pokemon with Lost World, which a player can wait to play until after your 6th Pokemon has been Lost Zoned.

Yeah but I like mew prime. It might be good paired with call of legends Lucario.

I don't see it being viable in modified for a while with no real way to protect it's very, very low 60 HP.

 

[pmarckoue]

That's the only downfall for Mew. I think it's only used for a fast attack, then retreat to something else. Well, that's how I'm using it anyways lol

 

[donavannj]

So what are you using it with now?
