Deck Primer

Ethan’s Ho-Oh ex is a powerful energy acceleration engine. It’s sort of like Baxcalibur only you don’t need to evolve it which makes it much more effective. You can attach two fire energy from your hand every turn using Golden Flame. You have multiple of these guys on your bench, you can accelerate insane numbers of energy onto your Pokemon.

How do you get these energies into your hand? You have two main ways to do this: Earthen Vessel and Ethan’ Adventure.

Ethan’s Ho-Oh ex is a powerful energy acceleration engine. It’s sort of like Baxcalibur only you don’t need to evolve it which makes it much more effective. You can attach two fire energy from your hand every turn using Golden Flame. You have multiple of these guys on your bench, you can accelerate insane numbers of energy onto your Pokemon.

How do you get these energies into your hand? You have two main ways to do this: Earthen Vessel and Ethan’ Adventure.

Once you’ve pulled these energies from your deck, use Golden Flame to get them onto your Ethan’s Pokemon, especially Magcargo.

If you thought Ethan’s Typhlosion hit hard, you’ll love Ethan’s Magcargo and its powerful Lava Burst. Manage to get five energy onto this guy and you’re hitting for an insane 350 damage.

The downside? You’re clearing 5 energies to do this. However, given how easily Ethan’s Ho-Oh gets energy onto your Pokemon, I don’t see this being incredibly difficult to pull off.

To ensure you have enough energy in hand to add to your Pokemon, you’ll be recycling energy with Superior Energy Retrieval.

Finally there’s this guy: Ethan’s Pinsir. Clearly this card was made to combo with Ethan’s Ho-Oh, as attaching enough energy to get One-Point Return off would be too difficult without a high enough payoff otherwise.
