Therefore, the safest decks to run for this event consist purely of Fire-type Pokemon.
Blaine deck (Budget Fire deck)
- Vulpix x 2
- Ninetales x 2
- Ponyta x 2
- Rapidash x 2
- Blaine x 2
- Sabrina x 2
- Professor’s Research x 2
- Poke Ball x 2
- X Speed x 2
- Potion x2
This Fire-type deck is a breeze to build, with most cards being easily obtainable.
Rapidash and Ninetales form a powerful duo against the Grass-types in the Venusaur EX event solo battles. Their low energy costs allow them to quickly dismantle opponents before they can build up enough energy to retaliate.
Blaine’s game-changing ability to add a significant +30 damage to either Rapidash or Ninetales’ attacks elevates this deck to new heights, enabling it to effortlessly cut through even the most resilient Grass-type Pokemon.
Don’t worry if you don’t have access to Blaine, this deck can also function quite well without it.
Moltress EX & Arcanine
- Growlithe x 2
- Arcanine EX x 2
- Moltress EX x 2
- Ponyta x 2
- Rapidash x 2
- Sabrina x 2
- Professor’s Research x 2
- Poke Ball x 2
- X Speed x 2
- Potion x2
Take charge with this Arcanine EX deck and knock everything out in the Venusaur EX event solo battles with one fiery attack!
This deck is designed to unleash Arcanine’s full power as quickly as possible. The strategy revolves around a two-step combo:
- Begin with Moltress EX to feed energy into a benched Growlithe/Arcanine EX.
- Once Arcanine is fully powered, it can take over the game with its powerful attack, Inferno Onrush.
Rapidash serves as a valuable asset in this deck, providing both early damage and a backup plan if Moltress’ Inferno Dances fail to deliver extra energy.
Moltress EX & Charizard EX
- Charmander x 2
- Charmeleon x 2
- Charizard EX x 2
- Moltress EX x 2
- Heatmor x 2
- Sabrina x 2
- Professor’s Research x 2
- Poke Ball x 2
- X Speed x 2
- Potion x2
Burn everything to the ground with Charizard EX, the king of flames!
This deck capitalizes on Charizard EX’s formidable strength but recognizes the time it takes to evolve and charge up. Moltress EX plays a crucial role in bridging this gap. While Moltress absorbs incoming attacks, its Inferno Dance ability fuels Charizard’s power, allowing it to ultimately dominate the battlefield.
If Moltress EX doesn’t appear early, Heatmor becomes a reliable fallback. Its ability to deal consistent damage and endure attacks buys crucial turns. Even against a powerful Pokemon like Kangaskhan, Heatmor can withstand multiple hits, giving you time to either draw into Moltress EX or develop Charizard EX on the bench.
