Deck Primer

A "simple" GLC Fairy Deck. I wanted to make a fairy deck which could somewhat compete with my and other friends GLCs decks. Looking through the Fairy Type Pokémon years ago Gardevoir caught my eye and I build a Fairy deck with it. The deck doesn't have a clear theme or centerpiece compared to my other GLC decks, but it's still fun to play.

Game plan/-play:
1) Start/Early Game:
-> This deck has 3 "Support" Pokémon which serve as the backbone of the deck: Shiinotic, Slurpuff,

Game plan/-play:
1) Start/Early Game:
-> This deck has 3 "Support" Pokémon which serve as the backbone of the deck: Shiinotic, Slurpuff, Ribombee.
-> First priority is to put Shiinotic into play as it is used to "tutor" the other Pokémon from the deck.
-> In the meantime also put Slurpuff into play since it's the decks main card draw engine.
-> Try to get either Clefable or Mimikyu into Active Spot as early game attackers. Clefable is a fast and somewhat "strong" attacker (if you are able to attach Energy cards to each of your Pokémon every turn) and Mimikyu can be used to draw more cards.
-> If possible also try to get Ribombee on the Bench and use its Ability to put Fairy Energy from deck into your hand to thin out your deck and have Energy cards in hand for Energy attachment.

2) Mid-Game:
-> Attach Rescue Scarf to Mimikyu to get it back immediately after it's knocked out. It severs as a revenge attacker in Mid- and Late Game.
-> Get Gardevoir into play and set it up as fast as possible. Try to play a Supporter every turn and use its Sensitive Ray Attack to deal good DMG.
-> If playing against a Spread DMG deck or e.g. Kyogre, but Mr. Mime into play to protect your Benched Support Pokémon from DMG.
-> If Gardevoir gets knocked out, move Tapu Fini or Mimikyu into Active Spot (see Late Game description) and try to get Gardevoir back from discard pile as soon as possible.

3) Late Game/Being behind:
-> If you struggle against a strong or high HP Pokémon use Tapu Fini with Trick Coin attached and its Dream Away Attack to shuffle it into the opponent's deck.
-> In Late Game Mimikyu can be used as revenge attacker if the opponent used a strong attack last turn and it's usable by Mimikyu.

Disclaimer:
- Comments, ideas, etc. are welcome!
- All my decks are mostly built around a theme and built for fun games in the local GLC friends group and LGS.
- Since I'm not a competitive player, this deck it's not meant/recommended for GLC tournament play.
- All my decks have been built/are organized on limitlesstcg.com beforehand and have been tested in https://ptcgsim.online/ and games against friends. They have gone through a lot of changes and I compared them with decks from other players (GLC tournament decks, pokemoncard.io, cardboardwarriors.net, etc.) before I upload them. So I think they are okay as they are.
- However, I'm still open to recommendations for cards that fit into the deck's “theme” and can improve it.
- My decks are subject to change as I update them regularly when new GLC legal sets/cards release.
