Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, or shouldn't be on the forums at all, but I am wanting to get into Modified, and want a certain kind of deck, but have no experience in building Modified decks, nor where to get the cards from. As the title probably suggests, I'm wanting to build a deck around Ice-type Pokemon. <If you don't know, they're the Dewgong, Jynx, Piloswine, Glalie, Walrein and Cloyster lines as well as Delibird, Regice, Articuno, Lapras and Sneasel, and probably a couple I'm missing> I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me. ;087; ;124; ;131; ;362; ;091; ;378; ;215; ;365; ;351-i; ;221;
 
Well, none of the Ice-types in Modified have any real application except Jynx.

16 Pokémon

4 Smoochum UF
4 Jynx UF
3 Wynaut LM
3 Wobbuffet LM
2 Roselia LM

29 Trainer

3 Holon Transceiver
3 Holon Mentor
1 Holon Scientist
4 Pow! Hand Extension
3 Energy Removal 2
3 Pokémon Reversal
1 Pokémon Retriever
4 Battle Frontier
2 Mary's Request
3 Rocket's Admin.
2 Swoop! Teleporter

15 Energy

6 Psychic Energy
3 Water Energy
4 Double Rainbow Energy
2 Heal Energy

unless you run a 4-4-4 line of walrein ex and nothing else, you will lose every match you play with a deck of only ice types.

Well okothnuva solved most of your problems by listing all of the "Ice" type cards available for play.
So look at what cards you want, think about a strategy to go with them, and problem solved.
And here is the list again in case you missed it last time:
