MAIN STRATEGY
Emolga: This cute little doll is our greeter at Charm School. And as you can see—she's all charm herself. Emolga is your ticket in the door. Hope to meet here there in your opening turn, so you can use [Call for Family] to begin the lesson. On your first call, you're going to want to reach for two Ralts if you can (even if you already have one on the bench). Gardevoir is the head mistress of Charm School, and the majority of this deck's contents revolves around summoning her to show you the way.
You can always make up the difference by calling for any combination of Mew, Cresselia, or Sigilyph on your second turn. However, by that second turn, you're going to want to be able to make the most of cards like Level Ball, Kirlia, and Wally. And if you've only got one Ralts on the bench, then your potential to make use of these cards is going to greatly hindered, and you might be able to make use of all the resources you have.
Getting cards like Giant Cape and Mystery Energy out of your hand and onto their respective Pokémon right away is also very important—so that you don't lose them in shuffle with Shauna, where you might have to go without them because you can't get them back in time. So set down all the Ralts you can. With the only exception to this being—if you need to defend against a Pokémon EX right away. In which, you'll want to summon forth a Sigilyph right away, since Sigilyph can be rather frail, and for that reason you don't want to a wait a single turn on getting it active and attacking when you need it.
Cresselia & Mew EX: Cresselia is the star graduate of Charm School—and Mew is her star pupil. These two play a supportive lead next to Gardevoir. Mew might be able to copy attacks like [Eternal Radiance], but even with Giant Cape, Mew's HP is still dangerously low. So don't go sending Mew out there carelessly, try to keep Mew on the bench as a powerful finisher. After all, Cresselia is the star graduate for a reason—she has high HP, retreats for one energy just the same as Mew, and the healing factor of [Sparkling Particles] makes Cresselia more powerful than Mew overall.
Many Pokémon can easily deal 140 damage in a single shot, rendering even the potential of Mew and [Eternal Radiance] totally useless. So get your two energy on Mew, then start energizing your other Pokémon right away; OR whenever you have to choose between the two—choose Cresselia. Mew can retreat for one energy (and even start attacking for one energy in some cases). But Cresselia has a high energy requirement, so you don't want to put Cresselia on the bench unless you've got plans to care for her.
Gardevoir: The head mistress of Charm School. She's quite possibly the most beautiful person you'll ever meet—with a heart that perfectly compliments what you see on the outside. This deck applies a more tactical strategy with Gardevoir—focusing on defense rather than offense. Giant Cape and Training Center can be used together to increase Gardevoir's HP to 170 (the same as an EX). The strategy behind all this HP pumping is to reinforce Gardevoir for as much damage as possible, making Gardevoir super resistant to being knocked-out in a single attack—thus maximizing the potential of Gardevoir's [Eternal Radiance] attack.
You might not be able to always combo [Psybeam] with [Eternal Radiance]. In fact, you're very likely to face a few high paced matches where you will have to [Eternal Radiance] right away to spare Gardevoir from being KO'd.
In events like this, the strategy becomes retreating Gardevoir to the bench, in a dance with another Gardevoir, to endlessly chain their [Eternal Radiance] attacks consecutively. And that is why the strategy here involves maximizing Gardevoir's HP—to help prevent Gardevoir from being easily KO'd by a single attack. Utilizing this tactical defensive technique might take you a little longer to KO your opponent's Pokémon, but there's no replacement for the aspect of staying power. It's the very essence of eternal radiance. Once the charm is gone, all you're left with is bitterness—weak and powerless.
Steven, Shauna, Wally & Pokémon Center Lady: Charm is all about caregiving. To be loved—and made to feel special. Nothing is more charming than that. And that is what Steven (the head master of Charm School) aims to teach you about charm. How important care really is—and how to actually care for someone in detail. Shauna is a newcomer to charm—but she has great potential. Beauty and tenderness—innocence still. Yet her inexperience makes the concept of love totally beyond her understanding. And so, that is why Steven aims to give her a grand example of what it's like to be cared for her—in hopes that she can finally come to understand how charm is all about care.
Wally is your assistant in the opening turns of the game. Wally's greatest potential resides in turn two. On turn one, you will use [Call for Family] to bring out Ralts, then you will use Level Ball to obtain Kirlia. On your second turn, you want to evolve to Kirlia—and then have Wally take you straight to the head mistress Gardevoir. If Wally doesn't show up in your opening hand, then you will want to have Steven call for him on turn one. Playing Shauna on turn one can potentially be just as effective—and that is why their numbers are so high. Turn two is critical—and on turn one, you will want to have at least one of these Supporters in your hand so that you're not held back on turn two. Throughout the rest of the game, let Shauna lead the way for you; Steven will always be there to back her up if she happens to get lost.
Pokémon Center Lady embodies care. The art of charm—affection, attention, and caregiving. The numbers of this card are slightly elevated to increase the probability of drawing into one with Shauna—so that Steven can focus all his attention on Shauna, rather than get distracted on Pokémon Center Lady. When there's an urgency to draw cards right away, it's all going to come down to Shauna—and Steven is her only backup. There are only four copies of each, so focus as much of Steven's attention on Shauna as you can, and don't go out of your way for a Pokémon Center Lady unless you absolutely have to. The numbers have been set in your favor—but you can still ruin it for yourself by playing those cards wrong. So pay attention—and charm yourself a little.
Computer Search: Charm School doesn't offer online lessons. If you want to know true charm, you'll have to feel for yourself before you can truly understand—because true charm comes from the heart (that's what makes it real). And anything from the heart has to be felt to truly understand it. For this reason, you're going to have to search the place up and go there in person—to get a taste of true charm for yourself. You don't have to make an appointment or anything, they'll charm you regardless. That's what true charm is all about.
