    Well, i tried to follow the way most haymaker decks work- strong cards and a strategy to finish off the opponent quickly. It's not a really good haymaker deck since i really don't have a lot of cards. Heres my deck and help me improve it!

    2 hitmonchan -base, ex
    2 scyther -base, ex
    2 electabuzz -base(both)
    2 mewtwo -base, ex
    ----
    4 potion
    4 professor elm
    4 energy removal
    2 switch
    4 gust of wind
    2 gold berry
    4 bill
    1 computer search
    ----
    1 full heal energy
    1 recycle energy
    1 multi energy
    6 psychic
    5 electric
    5 grass
    8 fighting

    I kno there arent many pokemon to this deck, so please help me out! I am considering adding mew (promo) to the deck and hitmonlee...please gimmie some advice before monday because i am entering the league in my city!! Thanks in advance!
     
    I was kind of confused because I wasn't sure what you played, but looking that you have some Gust of Wind and Computer Search in your deck I am pretty confident that you are playing Unlimited. First off, if you have any Hitmonchan, Electabuzz, or Scyther Base I would suggest using those instead of the ex's. All of those ex's are horrible, except Hitmonchan which is ok. 2 of each one is not going to help you either. I have never built or played with or against a Haymaker, but I have read that you would need 4 of each of the Base Hitmonchan, Electabuzz and Scyther for a good Haymaker and for it to work right. And why are you playing the Mewtwo's? I've never seen them mentioned in or a possibility in Haymaker's so I'm not sure about them, but in my personal opinion, Mewtwo ex is horrible and will always be horrible. As for the Trainers, I would:
    -4 Energy Removals
    +4 Energy Search

    Energy search will be extremely helpful with this deck, especially since you are running 4 Energy types.

    I would:
    -Full Heal Energy
    -Recycle Energy
    -Multi Energy
    +3 Cleffa(Genesis: Eeeeeek!)

    You only have the 4 Elm's as your drawpower which is not alot at all. Cleffa's help out a bunch and they also have a baby effect which is nice.

    That is all I have to say for right now because my fingers are hurting lol!
     
    yesh well...i am currently tryin to trade people who have these cards becuz i dont have them...well ur advice is great and i will try it!
     
    Thanks and I understand about not having all of the cards. I am always like that whenever I am trying to get help. Hope my advice helps atleast a little bit.

    Why Oak? Oak is horrible because you have to discard.
     
    i agree i prefer elm as you can put it back in your deck and use the cards later if you have a messed up hand...oh and my friend is letting me use his deck and im getting it tomorrow...hes allowing me to soup it up and such! and his deck is awesome!!! I'll post the actuall deck when i get it but its like

    4 hitmonchan
    4 scyther
    4 electabuzz
    2 mewtwo
    2 mew and all these other cards

    Awesome! Mew from what set or is it a promo? If it is a promo, what number?
     
    the mew is the promo one i think the number is 7 if i am not mistaken
     
    If you mean the Mew that has Devolution Beam than it is #6. Why would you be using that? Why do you like it so much?
     
    Put in aerodactyl if you use mew, then your opponent is doomed. No evolutions! Muhahaha! (doesn't work against other haymakers though)

    You may actually want to try that out.
     
    That was actually pretty much the point, but the problem is im looking forward to seeing lots of haymakers at the league...
     
    Well, I play Modified, so I'm not really good at Unlimited Fixes. Everyone having a Haymaker? I read somewhere that in Unlimited, that Haymaker was dead.
     
    Oak is seriously the best card in the Unlimited format, where the entire point is to get out as much as possible as quickly as possible.

    But what if you have Oak in your hand, and a lot of good trainers, you just can't use right then, but you know you will need later, but you have no good pokemon out. So you use Oak and discard all of those good trainers? How can you get them back?
     
    if your hand is full of energies and an oak and u have a energy searches or energy retrievals, then its easy to get those back, but trainers...i think there is a card where you get a card back from the discard pile..i dont remember
     
    Oak is good in decks with lots of trainers and cards you can use right away. Use Prof Elm in decks with lots of energies to power up and slower cards. You can use both if you want (don't use too many oak or you'll run out of cards, even with fisherman and town voulenteers)
