Deck Primer

Post rotation (2026) control deck I made! You can replace Shaymin with Psyduck if you think you'll face lots of dragapult.

Matchups:

- Free win VS Alakazam if you get your 3 Mist Energies since they usually build 2 Enhanced Hammer

- Very strong against grass decks, makes ogerpon useless if you start with iron thorns, only threat is Meganium (the normal one)

- Strong against most ex pokemon abusers such as Mega Absol box or Marnie's deck

- Very weak to turbo/aggressive decks such as Mega Lucario

- Strong against most ex pokemon abusers such as Mega Absol box or Marnie's deck

- Very weak to turbo/aggressive decks such as Mega Lucario ex specially if you start with Iron thorns

- Almost impossible to win against cards that ignores Crustle's ability (Mega Loppuny ex / Mega Starmie ex)
