Welcome to the Chien-Pao ex Battle Deck!
The Legendary Pokémon Chien-Pao ex leads a wave of Water-type Pokémon in this deck, which aims to quickly attach lots of Energy cards to your Pokémon to power their attacks.

Keep Building Damage
Chien-Pao ex has almost unlimited potential for doing damage. It’s Ability lets you get extra 💧 Energy cards from your deck every turn, enduring you always have some to attach. Once your Pokémon have all the Energy they need, use Chien-Pao ex’s Hall Blade attack to do incredible damage. Remember, you can discard the Energy for this attack from any of your Pokémon.

• Even More Energy: Baxcalibur is the key to really ramping up damage because it lets you attach as many Basic 💧 Energy cards as you want during your turn. Combine this with Chien-Pao ex’s Ability to find extra Energy cards, and all your Pokémon will be fully powered up in no time.
• Draw It In: From Nemona and Youngster to Delibird with its Double Draw attack, many cards from this deck let you draw extra cards. This will help you find the most important cards faster.
• Search and Destroy: Try to get Chien-Pao ex and Baxcalibur set up as quickly as possible. Nest Ball can help you find Basic Pokémon, including Chien-Pao ex, and Jacq and Great Ball make it easier to locate Evolution Pokémon like Baxcalibur.

Combine all these strategies and find a way to freeze out your opponent!
