Before talking about the deck, I just want to talk about the name. "Burnin' For You" is one of the hits of my favorite band Blue Oyster Cult. They're just incredible. So the only reason I made this deck is to have a name after one of their songs (since Cloyster is not in the cards for Black and White yet). As the name clearly states, this is a deck centered around burning. It's a Fire/Psychic deck. Why Psychic? Well, in terms of deck compo, this gives me access to Chandelure, which is a great fit for the deck. In terms of B.O.C., well the song "Burnin' For You" was part of the same Album (Fire of Unknown Origin) that included the song "Veteran of the Psychic Wars", which is after "Burnin' For You" in the song order for the album.
Now for the deck. The point is to burn the foe, usually with support from Volcarona. Chandelure is the ideal front-man, as it deals additional damage with its ability.

Tips

- Add a mew Ex ( That blend energy will come in handy because mew can use chandalure's burning move and girentina's hex or if chosen ninetails move.)

- Get rid of professor juniper and add one more energy (2x colorless) and also 2 Bianca

- Replace Girentinas with Ninetails (Dragons Exalted) they do 120 if the foe is both confused and poisoned

- Replace 1 Ghetsis with Vulpix

- Replace 3 Pokémon catcher with 2 more vulpix (Switching the foe is not that good for a status condition deck) and an Entei EX who will lessen the need for super rods.
