Greetings fellow bulbapedia members! I'm PokémonMaster1. I own Pokémon Platinum and Pokémon SoulSilver versions. I have Absol-utely no interest in the TCG (ha-ha). My battling strategy is if you focus on your Pokémon's stats, you'll have an easier chance of victory. Say you have a Gardevoir. It knows the following moves: Zen Headbutt, Focus Punch, Fire Punch, and Calm Mind. Not the best move choices. But if you teach it Psychic, Focus Blast, Shadow Ball, and Thunderbolt (Thunderbolt is for just in case there's a Bug/Flying-type) you'll crush your enemies in no time! If I were in SoulSilver, here's the Pokémon i'd use:
