Deck Primer

I've decided to try and build a deck for all of the Paradox Rift ex pokemon, so let's see how this goes.

The goal is to use Hisuian Arcanine V's ability to steal energy from Sandy Shocks and Lucario, then swing for a bunch of damage. This'll probably be terrible in the early game (I haven't tested this at all sorry) but hopefully you can make a comeback after a few turns. Feedback is welcome if you have any.

This might be a little more consistent with, like, one Koriadon or something like that, and you may have forgotten to at Gutsy Pickaxe, which gives you more draw and acceleration.

NoGoodNames You're right, I completely forgot about gutsy pickaxe. 3-4 copies of that would do wonders for this deck.

While koraidon ex is a good suggestion, I'm a bit worried about the bench space it'll take up when it'll only be used once. I'm thinking thatSlither Wing (Paradox Rift) could help by attacking until Sandy Shocks can work, which might make koraidon a bit less necessary? I'll test it out and see if it helps
