Chien-Paolkia

A standard Chien-Pao ex deck with Palkia VSTAR as an alternate attacker and energy acceleration engine. This was made to be an easy adaptation for combining the Chien-Pao ex deck and Palkia VSTAR deck to make a powerful and consistent water type deck. Manaphy protects our Frigibax and Baxcalibur from Radiant Greninja, and Bibarel is a powerful draw engine, as well as a reason to include the legendary Pokémon Bidoof. You can use the Bidoof that comes in the Palkia VSTAR box, but this one is

You can use the Bidoof that comes in the Palkia VSTAR box, but this one is better. You could also run just 2 Chien-Pao ex (-Chien-Pao ex) and add something like a Klara (+Klara) to recover Radiant Greninja and Manaphy in case they get knocked out, or another Chien-Pao ex. Your goal should be to immediately get a Baxcalibur ready to fuel Chien-Pao and Bibarel ready to draw water energy, as this deck lacks a way to directly search energy. Setting up a Palkia VSTAR is never a bad idea, as star portal can come in clutch, as well as Subspace Swell being a powerful alternative to Hail Blade when taking down a less bulky Pokémon in order to save your water energy and superior energy retrievals.

This is a rather boring decklist, but it is a solid foundation for a deck built on the Chien-Pao ex deck and the Palkia VSTAR League Battle deck. If I missed something really important or really obvious, please leave a comment.
