I really hope that wasn't off the top of your head.

And what if it was? It's said in every episode, if you've watched at least 20 eps it's hard not to remember.

[Jam930]

Are you admitting to having the whole thing memorized?

[Master_of_PARANOiA]

Are you admitting to having the whole thing memorized?

Yes, I do have the whole thing memorized and I can honestly say that I haven't seen the show in 3 years.

[crazyguy0]

Yep. I think ive still got it memorized too. arent i cool

[Jam930]

You guys see the seizure episode?

Not sure why... but I wanna see it so bad...

[ImEric12]

it's just blinking.. I saw the seizure scene.

[Treffpunkt]

Seizure = not so fun.

Scyther was always my favorite.. well, in the TCC card game.. I used to have this modified Haymaker deck, which was built around the weaknesses of all other types of decks, including Haymakers. I used the traditional archetype (Hitmonchans, Scythers) but replaced the Electrobuzzes with Fossil Magmars and threw in 3 or 4 movie-promo Mewtwos to piss 'em off. Lickitung and Snorlax as walls. Lots of plus powers, remove energies, a few computer searches and a couple Professor Oaks. My strategy was to destroy their basic Pokemon as quickly as possible. I kept my hand full of energy, deprived them of gaining any themselves, and played on their weaknesses. Hooray for cheap attack/low retreat cost.

Haymakers pwned. My pokemon deck went 118-2 before I realized how lame I was.

My Gameboy lineup consisted of mew, missingno, blastoise, and ummmm raichu.... and uhhh snorlax... another missingno.


for people wondering what a haymaker is, it's a deck w/ (typically) 12 or less pokemon, less than 15-20 energy, and the rest trainers. you pretty much have pokemon that don't evolve w/ cheap attacks that do decent damage, and trainers to beef your guys up and find other trainers or cards that you need. Typically professor oak, bill, and computer search were staple trainers. The downside to a haymaker was its incredible deck burning tendency, where you might run out of cards before you win (ouch). <3 Prof. Oak.
