Deck Primer

This deck is designed to work in a competitive Expanded setting. So, I would appreciate it if I could recieve advice for improvements within that setting.

Dragapult ex has a pretty crazy attack, dealing 200 to the active, and spreading 60 however you want across the Bench. While the main attack itself isn't enough to OHKO too many threats on its own, you'll be exhancging the slower start with the likely possibility of taking several double KO's back-to-back. This deck has tons of built-in draw

This deck is designed to work in a competitive Expanded setting. So, I would appreciate it if I could recieve advice for improvements within that setting.

Dragapult ex has a pretty crazy attack, dealing 200 to the active, and spreading 60 however you want across the Bench. While the main attack itself isn't enough to OHKO too many threats on its own, you'll be exhancging the slower start with the likely possibility of taking several double KO's back-to-back. This deck has tons of built-in draw support through Drakloak and Pidgeotto. Outside of the pretty much obligatory Tapu Lele-GX, it has no need for basic abilities, allowing it the freedom to run Silent Lab as one of its Stadium cards to disrupt the opponet a bit more. I'm using the Bunnelby engine to get the evolutions rolling, and depending on how it fares, I may switch out Grand Tree for something like Computer Search (Boundaries Crossed) instead.

Supporters include Crispin for easy Energy setup if you can't get DDE online, Karen acts as both recovery for yourself and a huge pain for Regidrago players to deal with, Guzma is better than Boss's Orders 99% of the time, and Pidgeot ex and Float Stone make pivoting very easy. Guzma & Hala is also there for setup, usually in the early game, but it's useful at all times really. Lusamine can become additional copies of your supporters, as well as recver your Grand Tree if you need it. Raihan can get you back on track if things go south, and finally, Iono can get you a fresh hand while disrupting the opponent some more. If you don't get the card you need, no need to worry, and Pidgeot ex can guarantee what you need every turn.

Have fun, and let me know if this deck needs any changes!

Sorry to bother you with this, but could you please make a non-pidgeot version?

WafflzInTheHouse How come? It's the optimal way to play it, barring Vileplume. Even the Vileplume lists run Pidgeot for search because Bunnelby makes it that easy to set up. I'll probably end up optimizing this list in of itself a bit more, but I don't believe Pidgeot is something easily replaceable, sorry.
