Deck Primer

People of all financial statuses have asked me why I find the Iono's deck to be fun to play, I will explain why, the deck in a lot of ways plays like classic Rain Dance, but is for Electric Pokemon instead. While Raging Bolt is partially anti-synergistic in the deck, it does help hit for massive numbers when 230 damage on a single attack just isn't enough which I have encountered numerous times I needed to go for more than 230.

People of all financial statuses have asked me why I find the Iono's deck to be fun to play, I will explain why, the deck in a lot of ways plays like classic Rain Dance, but is for Electric Pokemon instead. While Raging Bolt is partially anti-synergistic in the deck, it does help hit for massive numbers when 230 damage on a single attack just isn't enough which I have encountered numerous times I needed to go for more than 230. Raging Bolt can utilize the energy of all of my Pokemon which Bellibolt's Electirc Streamer ability can dump out my Energy loaded hand onto Iono's Pokemon to present lethal attacks.

The deck is hard to gas out as I can recycle Electric Energies for ever with Levincia which is absolutely amazing in the deck. The 2-2 Killowatteral line functions as a synergistic draw engine that works amazingly with the 4 copies of Iono as anytime I play Iono for 5 or less cards, I reach the 6th card with them. I can mitigate Bellibolt's downside of Thunderous Bolt that says I cannot use the attack twice because I can switch it out for 2 energy and bring back the two energy with Levincia and reattach them to another Iono's Pokemon. The one of Vortorb comes in clutch by being a single prize attacker that can be easily tutored for with 4 Buddy Buddy Poffin. Energy Switch and Professor Sada's Vitality are here to help the downside of not being able to dump energy onto Raging Bolt with Bellibolt.
