Deck Primer

A build that hasn't been seen much since Stellar Crown.

Strategy: I'd recommend to go second with this deck, however, going first isn't too bad with this deck. Anyways, for your first turn, you should try to use Precious Trolley to get 2-3 Dreepy's, 1 Iron Thorns, or Budew, Toedscool, Munkidori, and maybe Genesect. You don't need to get Thorns out unless you plan to shut their abilities off. Now if you're going second, try and use Itchy Pollen to item-lock them or to use TM: Evolution to get out

A build that hasn't been seen much since Stellar Crown.

Strategy: I'd recommend to go second with this deck, however, going first isn't too bad with this deck. Anyways, for your first turn, you should try to use Precious Trolley to get 2-3 Dreepy's, 1 Iron Thorns, or Budew, Toedscool, Munkidori, and maybe Genesect. You don't need to get Thorns out unless you plan to shut their abilities off. Now if you're going second, try and use Itchy Pollen to item-lock them or to use TM: Evolution to get out your Drakloaks.  Genesect helps shut off your Opponent's ACE SPEC's if you have a Tool Card attached to it, Munkidori helps move damage off of your Pokémon onto your Opponent's Pokémon. Crispin helps get out your Energy into play and Jacq helps get out your Evolution Pokémon a bit quicker. You can cut both copies of Rare Candy but it does help get Pult out a bit more quickly. Also, Toedscruel effectively makes their Night Stretcher's and other recovery cards that put cards into their hand useless. I don't have much more to say for this deck so feel free to make any changes or to leave any suggestions!

I'm gonna do a bit more testing with this list to see if I can make any modifications and I apologize if the description is weirdly worded.

Also, would it be possible for you to make an infernape deck? I've been trying to find one but cant
