Deck Primer

Parts of this list were inspired from @LimeLemon's list. Mimikyu walls the ex Pokémon, Cornerstone counters all ability Pokémon as well. Golem ex does 120 more damage next turn if its first attack is used so by using Crushing Hammer and something like Giovanni's Charisma you can ruin their energy play so they can't attack. Handheld fan amplifies that even more.

WafflzInTheHouse I apologize for the late response, though I see that our names shows that we do have quite a bit in common, interesting. Also, thank you for your feedback.
