I think more metal energy than psychic energy

Eminginjo Since I was limited to what cards I could use (with Iron Treads ex releasing in Scarlet & Violet base), there were only 3 lines of Metal cards (Forretress, Revavroom, and Iron Treads ex itself), I opted to make the deck dual-type with Psychic. This was done to counter Great Tusk ex (with that deck being part Fire to do the same to Treads). The dual-type decks feature a 9/9 split of energy, anyhow.
