@ProfessorJ: I like that idea of Banette although it gives up an immediate prize. But the 3-1 Luxray in no reason is a better play than 2-2 for moving things out of the way. The ONLY reason that it might be is that you might start with a Luxray GL instead of some other basic but a 2-2 is much...
So you're assuming they don't play any sort of search/draw cards like Bebe's Search, Uxie, or Professor Oak's New Theory? If they do a Collector with a Spiritomb start can be a Gastly, Oddish, and an Uxie. So if their hand is small enough they can setup for a good amount and if they so happen to...
You're correct in stating that Felecity's Drawing was about the only thing Gyarados lost but you're wrong in stating that Gyarados can still be playable this season. Losing Felecity's Drawing was a low blow to Gyarados because now it would have to be forced to use inferior things such as Regice...
You also have to look at it this way. Back then Trainer meaned every sort of one (even though there were only Trainers). But if that were to be used now in unlimited it would also stop Supporters and Stadiums. Much more powerful than just the few Rare Candy or Pokemon Communication one might use...
Taking a prize doesn't always have to be from the opponent's attack. If any of your Pokemon get knocked out from damage you caused then your opponent still gets the prize card(s). If you ever played the video game you can think of it as battling against a confused Pokemon. Even if that Pokemon...
Like you said, it's already devalued by way too much because you wrote your name on the back of it. No collector would want to have any of their collectibles written on. So I guess since no one would really trade for it anyways you might as well get it signed for your own purposes.
Haha, what you're saying seem to be the complete opposite for me. In seniors it seemed like there was no real metagame and that people just played decks that USED to be meta from either the previous year or earlier from the season. Seniors also seemed to play random decks sometimes. Then when I...
@dragonpulse20: It doesn't make sense to be trying to do damage with a deck that isn't meant to take prizes. And what the hell do you plan on attacking with? Find that Expert Belt and one Black Belt to do 80 with an Uxie? That won't KO a lot of things. So then is it to attack with Uxie Lv.X? 120...
I thought you said you built the perfect list. And about the trainers being random, you're right about that. Who in their right mind would put some of those things in (especially Expert Belt, Black Belt, and a single Good Rod).

The first Pokemon may not make such a big difference but when trying to recover it does. Say on T2 you have your Mismagius setup and got a KO, but now that one energy attacker comes back and KOs you. Now you need another two turns before you can come back and achieve the OHKO again while that...
