Intimidation (TCG)

Intimidation is the name of the deck used by Tristan Robinson, the Junior Division Champion in the 2008 World Championships. The deck was built with one objective: countering powerful cards. For example, Scizor has an attack that does 80 damage to an opponent that has any Special Energy cards attached to it. Sableye can disable any opponent attack for one turn. Cessation Crystal disables all Poké-Powers and Poké-Bodies. Crystal Beach makes Special, double-Energy cards count as a single Energy. When building his deck, Robinson took note of the heavily-played cards at the time, and chose his own Pokémon and Trainer cards that directly conflicted with these effects.
