This Pikachu EX deck is a powerhouse that’s surprisingly easy to master.
As the deck name suggests, Pikachu EX is the heart of this deck, delivering powerful early-game blows that can quickly turn the tide of battle. The more Pokemon you bench, the more powerful Pikachu EX becomes, capable of dishing out up to a staggering 90 damage per attack.
Your early-game strategy is straightforward: power up Pikachu EX while filling your bench to maximize its damage potential.
Once Pikachu is online, you can switch gears and prepare to unleash the destructive power of Zapdos EX or Raichu for big damage if your opponent manages to build up a big Pokemon themselves.
Keep in mind if you decide to go down the Raichu route, you only have one copy of Lt. Surge to funnel extra energy into Raichu.
If for whatever reason Pikachu EX isn’t drawn early, Electrode can take over by providing powerful early game attacks. Its zero-energy retreat cost allows it to pivot out for free without the use of X Speed, allowing you to save energy and X Speed for another Pokemon.
