Both Koffing or Nidoran ♂ can be used to start. If Weezing is available early, evolve and use it to tank early hits while putting energy into Nidoran ♂. If starting with Nidoran ♂, evolve it and use it to tank while dealing damage. During this time, you should be able to build another Nidoking or Weezing for late game.

Use Koga to "heal" your Weezings to continue tanking hits. Red Card can slow down any deck that requires setups. (e.g. Mewtwo ex with Gardevoir setup) X Speed can be used instead of Red Card for free early swaps.

Feel free to change anything to what you have, do not expect to win, use red cards and be a nucence lIke real birds

1. Only 2 basic Pokemon Tentacool, so you always start with it
2. Start with Tentacool and build it to Tentacruel to spread poison damage
3. Use Misty and Water Energy to build Omastar
4. Lockdown enemy so it cannot attack

(You can use any weezing or Nidoking, if you don't have the full art)

There isn't a specific strategy to play this deck, so just remember the next things:


Pros of this Deck

- Low Energy Cost

- No Ex 

- Pokemon Abilities

-Really Powerful against the Psychic type

Cons of this deck

- You'll need a good starter hand

- The Red Card can turn around the match

Reliant on Misty to generate energy quickly and start dealing damage. Avoid playing 2nd Lapras prematurely to avoid Sabrina, unless you have a fossil you can use for free retreats. If 1 Lapras dies, remove fossils to avoid Sabrina.

Cheaper version of Aritcuno 18T, Misses the attack for 2 energy but can help to start. If you get 1 Articuno, you can run it with 2 Lapras, and once you have the second Articuno, you can go to the Articuno 18T deck, or keep trying with some Lapras for extra pokeball consistency.

Can replace 1 Koga to 1 Sabrina
Poison in, keep them in with Arbok. 
Easy to play vs Mewtwo decks.

Winnable against Pika EX and Misty Articuno/Starmie decks.

Runs from Monkey decks o7

Fun deck to keep them on their toes if all works as planned.  Mankey to Primape high potential damage output while high HP Grappolt keeps their active on rotation while dealing good damage simultaneously.  Takes some time to set up if early cards draws don't go your way which is where Hitmonlee/Hitmonchan come in to do some popshots in the mean time. 

An aggressive choice for countering and stalling out high-energy meta decks. Use Sabrina to force opponents to switch out their backline Pokémon, then secure KOs with Arbok by denying their retreat. The goal is to score points on enemy Pokémon as quickly as possible and disrupt their strategy.

Weezing is great for getting chip damage in with Gas Leak, especially on main Pokémon with high HP. It also works with Koga as a stall Pokémon, as it can take some hits before being returned to your hand and switched out for Arbok's damage attack.

Strong cheap deck Vs the popular Mewtwo and Pikachu decks

Stack deck with only fighting energy as Zubat/Golbat do not require dark energy
