YxP: Giovanni's Desground Deck

Desground: A dark reflection of Emera, this deck Synergy is based on Pokemon used by Giovanni, and is used to exploit the opponent’s pain for profit. It is also capable of Synergy Summoning faster than most deck possibely can, but not quite as fast as Emera. The trade-off though, is that Desground Synergy monsters trade none of their power for this speed.
