Tsareena ex absolutely murders fire zard, and baby Toedscruel stops Chien-Pao ex from recovering energy. Have fun countering everything!

I actually really like the concept you have here! Some things I would change is that I would first off get rid of Rubber Gloves. Miraidon decks usually don't run Regieleki VMAX, and you can KO their Raikous and Miraidons just fine. Remove 1 Gardenia and with the open slot from the Rubber Gloves, add 2 Super rod. Finally, since you're accelerating from your hand, cut 2 Energy for 2 Earthen Vessel. You can cut 1 Boss for a third vessel if you feel like it.

Remember these are just suggestions, so do what you will with them.

PlasmaFists11 I'm not sure about ditching Rubber Gloves, because I play against Regi VMAX almost every time I play against Miraidon. If I'm not playing against it, It can be used as discard fodder. I also don't like running less tha 10 energy, so I'll probably remove one boss for the earthen vessel IMO. Thanks for the suggestions!

Hey! I love this idea but like most evolution decks right now, be wary of Iron Valiant on turn 1. I think the only real counter is Klefki right now...? (Correct me if I'm wrong) or just make sure turn 1 to have higher HP Mons turn 1 then Turn or Penny them away...?

My thoughts around all the pre-evo basics were to possibly go 2nd,  Arven and pick up the evolution tm and use it as soon as possible. (With the said precautions put in place).

These are just ideas lmk if it helps would love to Collab.

I also saw someone think of using Forretress + counter catchers early game.

MissWildWaves When I was testing it out, it seemed to brick a bit, so some further testing is still required.
