Deck Primer

Since theme decks have been discontinued, we did not get any starter theme decks, so I decided to make them myself.

Since theme decks have been discontinued, we did not get any starter theme decks, so I decided to make them myself.

Introducing Aqua Parade, the Quaquaval theme deck. Like all theme decks, it is designed for beginners with easy strategies and plenty of upgrade options.

The main strategy is to use Quaquaval's Energy Carnival ability to accelerate energy from your hand to your Pokemon, with itself being a solid attacker for this deck, with Bruxish being able to assist with that due to its Vivid Charge attack. Cetitan and Floatzel act as your secondary and Tertiary attackers, with Cetitan being able to do massive damage when at high HP that can be maintained with the potion cards or Slowbro's ability and Floatzel doing more damage as you accelerate energy to it. The supporter, Jacq, is present so you can better search for your necessary evolution mons, and the energy switch/retrievals are there to help you get additional energy into your hand for better acceleration.
