'''Rocky Beach''' is the name of the deck used by Reed Weichler, the Junior Finalist in the {{TCG|2004 World Championships}}. The deck focuses on {{p|Swampert}}, and uses other Pokémon, such as {{p|Magneton}} and {{p|Delcatty}} to maximize Swampert ex's damage output. The strategy of the deck is to use {{TCG ID|EX Ruby & Sapphire|Swampert|13}}'s Water Call {{TCG|Poké-Power}} to add extra damage to {{TCG ID|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua|Swampert ex|95}}'s Hyper Pump attack. {{TCG ID|EX Ruby & Sapphire|Delcatty|5}}'s Energy Draw allows the player to draw three more cards after discarding an {{TCG|Energy card}} from his or her hand, which can be retrieved by using {{TCG ID|EX Dragon|Magneton|17}}'s Magnetic Field {{TCG|Poké-Power}}. {{TCG ID|EX Sandstorm|Wobbuffet|26}} counters opposing {{TCG|Pokémon-ex}} using its {{m|Safeguard}} {{TCG|Poké-Body}}, while {{TCG ID|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua|Suicune ex|94}} both provides a counter to {{ct|Fire}} and attacks by manipulating Energy, similar to Swampert ex.
