Deck Primer

Compared to my other Baby Box list, this list focuses more on retreat locking with Spinarak (since it does less damage than Sudowoodo)

This deck also runs a Drakloak engine since it is more consistent in the later game (since you want to draw into a boss instead of a Dunsparce)

Why? The other Baby Box list requires you to first or second turn Elgyem/Clefairy basically every time. This list, on the other hand, does not. You can play slower, using Absol to draw cards and set up your Drakloaks slowly.

This is because our game win condition (spinarak retreat lock) can be played and be effective at any point of the game.
