The ARCEUS / MEWTWO V-UNION deck is a powerful Pokemon deck that utilizes the combined strengths of Arceus and Mewtwo V-Union to dominate the meta. This deck is particularly advantageous against popular decks like Lost Box and Gardevoir due to the devastating effects of Mewtwo V-Union's Psyplosion attack and Final Burn attack.

The centerpiece of the ARCEUS / MEWTWO V-UNION deck is Mewtwo V-Union, an incredible Pokemon with unique abilities. Mewtwo V-Union possesses the Psyplosion attack, which allows you to place an astounding 16 damage counters on any of your opponent's Pokemon. This attack can quickly weaken or even knock out key Pokemon on your opponent's side, disrupting their strategy and weakening their offensive capabilities.

In addition to Psyplosion, Mewtwo V-Union also possesses the powerful Final Burn attack. This attack inflicts a staggering 300 total damage, making it capable of delivering a devastating blow to any opposing Pokemon. With Final Burn, you have the potential to swiftly eliminate high HP Pokemon on your opponent's side, granting you a significant advantage in battles.

When combined with Arceus, which serves as a versatile support Pokemon in this deck, the ARCEUS / MEWTWO V-UNION deck becomes even more formidable. Arceus can provide additional energy acceleration, enabling you to power up Mewtwo V-Union quickly. It can also aid in recovering resources and disrupt your opponent's strategy with its various attacks and abilities.

The deck's strategy revolves around utilizing Mewtwo V-Union's Psyplosion to strategically place damage counters on your opponent's Pokemon, wearing them down over time. By doing so, you can limit their options, prevent them from executing their game plan effectively, and ultimately gain the upper hand in battles.

Against meta decks like Lost Box and Gardevoir, the ARCEUS / MEWTWO V-UNION deck shines. Lost Box relies on multiple Pokemon on the field to maximize its effectiveness, but Mewtwo V-Union's Psyplosion attack can quickly cripple their strategy by placing damage counters on multiple targets simultaneously. Similarly, Gardevoir, known for its high HP and powerful attacks, can be swiftly defeated by Mewtwo V-Union's Final Burn attack, allowing you to gain a significant advantage in the matchup.

In conclusion, the ARCEUS / MEWTWO V-UNION deck is a dominant force in the Pokemon TCG meta. With the devastating power of Mewtwo V-Union's Psyplosion attack and Final Burn attack, this deck can disrupt opponents' strategies and overcome popular meta decks like Lost Box and Gardevoir. If piloted skillfully, this deck has the potential to bring you victory in competitive battles.

Hello! I just tested this deck myself an had pretty good results, I've got some feedback I'd like to put out tho.

What do you think of adding Squawkabilly ex (Paldea Evolved)? It's getting popular on Arceus' decks because of consistency, and it would be another way of discarding Mewtwo pieces.

Would you consider replacing the Bidoof line with the Kirlia (Silver Tempest) line? Since Kirlia is yet another way of discarding Mewtwo pieces, and Gallade (Astral Radiance) can help you get the supporter you need. I guess Bibarel is there to recover your hand after using Peony (Chilling Reign) or taking a late game Iono (Paldea Evolved), but I think this is very situational.

Lastly, I know the space is kinda tight, but maybe you could consider adding Pokégear 3.0 (Scarlet & Violet)? You could get them via the stadium because it's an item, there's a lot of supporters in the deck, and it could overall improve the consistency of the deck.

That's it. Sorry if my english was not quite perfect, it's not my first language :)

Hello MrOwo. 
I'm glad you were able to test out the deck and find some success with it! I also love your feedback below. I went back and forth on the Bidoof vs Kirlia question and ultimately picked Bidoof because I wasn't find myself in a position where I was struggling to discard Mewtwo pieces when needed and wanted a little more power to rip through the deck faster or in situations that you mentioned. 

If you end up trying out the Kirlia engine, please let me know if you have more success or not! I never considered also adding the Gallafe or Pokegear, but I definetly see how they could come in hand. 

Thanks again for the feedback! One of the great things about PTCG is that you can test out SO many different variations and find what suits your specific playstyle or needs best!

Saving this! Might circle back and ask about some of the choices when I get time to take a good look at it later
