Deck Primer

Sorry for releasing this pretty late, I had to do a lot of testing with this deck to find a decent build for Mabosstiff. So I'm probably not going to make another deck today as I still have to test Koraidon.

Strategy: I'd suggest going second with this deck but going first is fine as well. Anyways, on your first turn get up your Maschiff's, Doduo's, and probably a Pecharunt ex. Now if you're going second, get Budew out to item-lock them or instead of getting Budew you can use TM: Evolution.

Now if you're going second, get Budew out to item-lock them or instead of getting Budew you can use TM: Evolution. Dodrio is your primary draw support and since it gets damage onto itself you can get Mabosstiff to do 220 damage which is decent but it can reach 260 when it gets poisoned by Pecharunt you could also make KO's easier to happen for you thanks to Munkidori moving some damage off but do try to keep some damage into play for Mabosstiff's attack. The single prize Mabosstiff can potentially KO your Opponent's Pokémon as well or to do insane damage to help your ex version finish them off. Switch helps in case your Pokémon gets trapped into the Active but Pecharunt does also help with that. I don't have much more to say about this deck so feel free to make any changes or to leave any suggestions!

Edits:

Edit #1: Removed 1 Night Stretcher, and 1 Ultra Ball. They have been replaced with 2 Janine's Secret Art. This change was suggested by @KingCarracosta.

LimeLemon How do you keep coming up with deck ideas everyday? Surely you're bound to take a break soon to come up with more ideas right?

Waffle Enthusiast To answer your question, I just randomly come up with ideas but I might take a break eventually. Also, thank you for your concern.

LimeLemon I think adding a couple Janine's secret art could work for energy acceleration and to put poison on mabosstiff for mochi. Also, could you make a vikavolt list (Circuit cannon)? Sorry for any inconvenience.

KingCarracosta A few Janine's Secret Arts could be good and I'll see what Ican do with that Vikavolt, thank you for your suggestion!

LimeLemon No problem! Thanks for looking into vikavolt.
