Their Guiding Flame move makes Light Ninetales a bit more versatile, as it allows the card to help a fallen Baby or Basic Pokemon ally back onto the Bench. Since this move is so low-cost, it can still be useful even after a couple of Fire Bla

This Ghost-type duo from the SM Black Star Promos expansion is a tricky pair that confounds and disables the opponent in the usual fashion that Ghost-types do . With Night Watch, they can hit the foe's Active pokemon while causing the opposing trainer to send 2 of the cards in their hand back into their deck. If the opponent doesn't have any cards to help them draw additional ones, Trevenant & Dusknoir can essentially starve the foe's strategies of required compone

Belonging to the Sun & Moon expansion, Decidueye GX is a Stage 2 pokémon with a considerable 240 HP, and abilities Feather Arrow, Razor Leaf, and WWW.Slgdaily.Xyz GX-attack Hollow Hunt. Feather Arrow allows the player to deal two damage counters to the opponent’s Pokémon once during their turn before their own attack. Razor Leaf deals a considerable damage of 90, while the GX attack costing only one Grass energy, allows the player to take three cards from their discard pile into their h

In the Pokemon TCG , if a player does not have any pokemon on their side of the field, they automatically lose. Garchomp & Giratina's final attack, GG End GX, forces the opposing trainer to discard up to 2 of their pokemon and all attached cards. If the foe only has 2 pokemon on the field, this attack will win the battle. The "GG" stands for "Garchomp & Giratina", however, due to this duo's battle-ending potential, it can very well also stand for "Good Ga

This is one of the best-supporting moves of any card released in the Neo Destiny expansion, though if push comes to shove, Light Ledian can unleash a flurry of punches for unreliable, yet potentially high, dam

Vespiquen is not only compatible with myriad attackers, as it itself is quite efficient when it comes to dealing out damage. In the extended formats, Vespiquen finds further assistance from Tool-cards like Battle Compressor and Professor Sycamore/Juniper, allowing players to deal heavy damages by discarding cards quic

There may be times when this strategy does not go as planned, due to it needing 4 specific cards for it to work, though there is another tactic that can be added on with minimal effort and resources. Including some Barraskewda cards, which Arrokuda can evolve into, can give one an excellent fallback strategy. If one's Cramorant gets knocked out before they can use Continuous Gulp Missile, this will leave their trainer with a bunch of comparatively week Arrokuda, which would get knocked out fairly quickly. Evolving them into Barraskewda will result in a fast, moderate-HP card that can directly damage the active opponent or even assault their benched poke

Pokemon Powers are essentially the early TCG's equivalent for Abilities and they can be greatly useful in the right situations. At the beginning of its trainer's turn, Light Arcanine's Drive Off forces the opponent to switch their Active Pokemon with one of their Benched Pokemon, assuming any are availa

However, in such a manner it is also possible to overextend oneself. Though this is less of a problem for certain water pokemon in the TCG because they get exponentially more powerful as they gain energy as opposed to most pokemon who only get additively stronger. They can also paralyze foes as well as string together some cool combos. Water type decks are all about manipulating energy, as well as possibly stunning the opponent's pokemon, while utilizing unique secondary strategies for an unpredictable and appropriately fluid offense. Much like a rogue wave that the enemy won't see coming until it crashes down upon t

Light Ledian is an interesting card because it has a move that affects other Pokemon for a consistent duration without the use of any counters or special identifiers. Flash Touch swaps this Active Bug-type with any other Pokemon on the trainer's Bench and essentially gives them a shield that protects them from special conditions while they are the Active Poke

Its other attack, Mind Shock, lets this powerful Psychic-type hit a foe for a guaranteed 40 damage that does not get affected by Weakness and Resistance. This Pokemon is a great addition to any Psychic decks revolving around high field cont

This graceful dragon in the form of a Colorless-type card is also a healer, but one that can recover a bit of HP for all of its trainer's Pokemon that are currently on the field, regardless if they are Active or Benc

One such card is the evolution of Vanillite found in the Darkness Ablaze expansion, Vanillish. For only a single water energy, this stage 2 pokemon can deal minor, but quick, 30 damage per attack with a chance to make the foe Paralyzed. With a bit of luck during the coin flips, this can leave the adversary crippled and weakened, unable to respond. Not only can this allow trainers to dominate the battle, but it can also give them time to draw and play Vanillish's evolution, Vanilluxe; an ice pokemon that is even more adept at freezing f
