Loyal Three Renovation with Toxtricity

This is an up-to-date Loyal Three deck I made to start playing against real people face to face at my local card shop.

Legacy Loyal Three decks relied on Dark Patch which has been rotated out. This one relies on Phantasmal Flames Toxtricity.

I've updated this deck to reflect what I am currently using (December 15, 2025), I haven't had to tweak it for a while, now.

Setup:

Your ideal first-turn setup includes Pecharunt ex, Okidogi ex, Munkidori, and PFL Toxel (with Toxtricity in hand).
Except for Munkidori

This is an up-to-date Loyal Three deck I made to start playing against real people face to face at my local card shop.

Legacy Loyal Three decks relied on Dark Patch which has been rotated out. This one relies on Phantasmal Flames Toxtricity.

I've updated this deck to reflect what I am currently using (December 15, 2025), I haven't had to tweak it for a while, now.

Setup:

Your ideal first-turn setup includes Pecharunt ex, Okidogi ex, Munkidori, and PFL Toxel (with Toxtricity in hand).
Except for Munkidori and Toxel, Cyrano will set these up for you (along with Fezendipiti ex if you want). Hilda can help get your Toxtricity into play.

Step 1: Bench Okidogi ex and Pecharunt ex. Baby Munkidori and Toxel can be on the bench or in the Active Spot.
Step 2: Attach a Darkness Energy to baby Munkidori.
Step 3: Attach a Binding Mochi to Okidogi ex.
Step 4: Use Janine’s Secret Art to attach a Darkness Energy to Okidogi ex, or use Geeta to attach two Energy at once (but remember the Pokémon cannot attack that turn). If this is not possible this turn, use Toxtricity to attach a Darkness Energy on the next turn.
Step 5: Use Pecharunt's Subjugating Chains to move Okidogi ex to the Active Spot.
Step 6: Use Okidogi ex's Poisonous Musculature to attach the two more energy required for the 300 damage Chain-Crazed attack (130 base + 130 poisoned + 40 Binding Mochi).
Step 7: On the next turn, move damage counters from Okidogi ex to your opponent's Pokémon. These are best placed on a Pokémon with over 300 HP or a Pokémon that can evolve to a Pokémon with over 300 HP, e.g. Charizard ex or Mega Lucario ex, that way Okidogi ex may be able to Knock it Out with one hit.

Energy Sequencing:

If you have a choice, attach 1 Darkness Energy from the hand to baby Munkidori. Geeta can attach a darkness and a psychic energy to Munkidori, which is optimal, I've used Munkidori's attack a few times. Janine and Toxtricity can only attach Energy to Darkness Pokémon, so they can't attach Energy to Munkidori.

I found Geeta (OBF 188) for this deck to be more useful overall than Janine's Secret Art (SFA 59) since Geeta lets you attach two Energy to one Pokémon, though Janine does have her place in this deck if you want to poison an active Darkness Pokémon with a Binding Mochi and be able to use an attack on the same turn. Also, you can not attack (even Toxel's Call For Family) on the same turn you use Geeta.

Remember Toxtricity can only attach Energy to benched Pokémon along with two damage counters each; Janine will poison the Active Pokémon, and if Geeta attaches Energy to a Pokémon, you cannot attack during the current turn.

Midgame:

Maintain pressure with Okidogi ex while setting up a second attacker (Another Okidogi ex or even Mabostiff) and banking damage counters to finish high-HP targets.


Gravity Mountain lowers the HP of two-stage Pokémon like Charizard ex into one-hit KO range for Okidogi, and most Mega ex into the 300 range with some help from baby Munkidori. You can also use it to kick a pesky Battle Cage away.

You can use Pecharunt ex for a last Hail Mary attempt against a winning opponent after that opponent has obtained four or five prize cards. Just move it to the Active Spot with access to two Darkness Energies when that fifth prize card is won.

Matchup considerations:

My previous build I shared here had Hoopa ex, but I found Mabostiff's Intimidating Howl too useful in too many scenarios.

For a while, I also included 1 Rellor (SSP 13) and 1 Rabsca (TEF 24) to counter against Dragapult/Dusknoir and other sniping decks, but I stopped seeing so many of those with the release of Battle Cage (PFL 85). Battle cage also dampens Fezendipiti's sniping abilities, and limits baby Miunkidori's damage to the opponents Active Pokémon. MEP Psyduck (MEP 7) or Shaymin (DRI 10) may also be used for this purpose.
