Deck Primer

Thank you to @falink for suggesting this deck to be made!

Strategy: I'd strongly suggest to go second with this deck. Anyways, on your First Turn, you should try and get out the following Pokémon:

- 2-3 Teal Mask Ogerpon ex's

- 2 Pineco

- 1 Budew (Optional, suggest getting out if going second).

- 1 Latias ex

- 1 Toedscool (Optional, but helpful to prevent them from recovering cards from their Discard Pile with Toedscruel later on).

- Any Pokémon you wish to get out as well.

Thank you to @falink for suggesting this deck to be made!

Strategy: I'd strongly suggest to go second with this deck. Anyways, on your First Turn, you should try and get out the following Pokémon:

- 2-3 Teal Mask Ogerpon ex's

- 2 Pineco

- 1 Budew (Optional, suggest getting out if going second).

- 1 Latias ex

- 1 Toedscool (Optional, but helpful to prevent them from recovering cards from their Discard Pile with Toedscruel later on).

- Any Pokémon you wish to get out as well.

Getting these Pokémon should be quite easy to get out due to the ACE SPEC of choice, Precious Trolley which can be found from Arven or by drawing into it with Professor's Research, Iono, or via Teal Mask Ogerpon ex. Anyways, I will now move onto the explanations for the Pokémon in this deck.

Pokémon Explanations:

Teal Mask Ogerpon ex is the main Draw Engine and the primary Attacker for this deck. Forretress ex is in this deck to search your deck for up to 5 Basic Grass Energies and attach them to your Pokémon in any way you like which you'll attach them all to Teal Mask Ogerpon ex, though you do give up 2 Prize Cards by doing this but it's worth it in the end as Teal Mask Ogerpon ex will be able to start nuking your Opponent's Pokémon every turn. Budew helps stall with Itchy Pollen in the Early Game while you try and find your Forretress ex to accelerate the Energy to Teal Mask Ogerpon. Latias ex provides Free Retreat to all of your Basic Pokémon. Toedscruel helps block against cards such as Night Stretcher, Energy Retrieval, Superior Energy Retrieval, Lana's Aid, and Max Rod, though it doesn't block recovery cards like Super Rod due to it recovering it into their deck, not their hand. It does also make your matchup against Gholdengo ex a bit easier. Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex helps as a backup Endgame Attacker to help you take the last few Prize Cards you need. Iron Leaves ex helps as another backup Attacker and can help take a KO by swinging for 180, especially helpful when your TM Ogerpon is low on HP. Mew ex and Fezandipiti ex provide extra Draw Support. I will now move onto the Trainer Card explanations.

Trainer Card Explanations:

Professor's Research helps you get bigger hand sizes. Iono provides disruption. Arven helps find your Item Cards and Tool Cards. Boss's Orders provides gusting options. Briar helps you take an extra prize card with Teal Mask Ogerpon ex when your Opponent has exactly 2 Prize Cards remaining. Bug Catching Set helps find your Grass Pokémon or a Basic Grass Energy. Precious Trolley, Nest Ball, Ultra Ball, and Buddy-Buddy Poffin also find your Basic Pokémon. (Ultra Ball also finds Evolution Pokémon). Night Stretcher and Super Rod provide recovery. Pal Pad recovers your Supporter Cards into your deck so you can use them more in a game. Bravery Charm makes your Basic Pokémon more tanky. The rest of the Trainer Cards should be self-explanatory, same for the ones I mentioned but I just summarized what they do anyways, so I will now move onto this deck's weaknesses.

Deck Weaknesses:

Not drawing into the right cards needed can be quite crucial to this deck as it can make you brick oftenly.

Forretress ex does give up 2 Prize Cards and if you end up using 2 of them, you'd end up giving 4 Prize Cards total, though this can be offset as you can use Briar to take an extra Prize Card with TM Ogerpon ex. Just be careful to not use all 3 of them as you'd just end up losing the game since it'd give you 6 Prize Cards total, though blowing up the last Forretress ex can be quite funny if you're going to lose either way.

Prizing Precious Trolley can ruin the game for you, as Nest Ball, Ultra Ball, Buddy-Buddy Poffin, and Bug Catching Set are all at low copies.

Single Prize Decks, especially Ethan's Typhlosion as you're only able to take 1 Prize Card every KO you take.

There are more weaknesses but they should be pretty obvious on what they are, so I will now move onto combos you can do.

Combos:

Forretress ex's Ability Exploding Energy to then attach all 5 Basic Grass Energy onto Teal Mask Ogerpon ex.

Using 2 Forretress ex's in the same turn, attach all 10 Energy total to TM Ogerpon, then use Briar, and take an Extra Prize Card with TM Ogerpon.

Placing Iron Hands ex from your hand onto your Bench, then attach 3 Energies from any of your Pokémon onto Iron Leaves ex to then take a KO with Iron Leaves.

Having TM Ogerpon ex in play with Area Zero Underdepths, then use Precious Trolley to get up to 8 Benched Pokémon total.

This concludes all of the Strategy section, so feel free to make any changes, ask almost any question, or to leave any suggestions!

CTC: The cards that I'd recommend to add into this deck as an alternative for you to try out or try to fit your preferences will be sorted into a list with a brief description for every card. If there any cards here or from your own thoughts/ideas that you'd wish to add into this deck, cut out any cards that you don't find too useful. With this being stated, here is the list:

Pokémon:

- Any 3 Pineco with 70 HP - Literally any Pineco with 70 HP works.

- 2nd Toedscool and 1 Toedscruel ex - Makes the Toedscruel line a bit more useful as you get the option for another backup Attacker.

Trainer Cards:

- 4th Iono - Provides even more disruption.

- 1-2 more Arvens - Provides more consistency at finding your Item and Tool Cards.

- 2nd Nest Ball - Makes it more consistent to find Basic Pokémon.

- 2 more Bug Catching Sets - Add this in if you Precious Trolley as it finds your Grass Pokémon and Grass Energies.

- 1-2 Counter Catchers - Provides even more gust, helpful since you'll be behind on Prize Cards after using Forretress ex.

- Secret Box - Alternative ACE SPEC choice, finds an Item, Tool, Supporter, and Stadium card.

- Hero's Cape - Makes your TM Ogerpon ex a lot tankier and allows it to survive heavy damage.

- 3rd Area Zero Underdepths - Provides more consistency.

This concludes the CTC (Cards to Consider) section, I hope you found this description helpful! Anyways, I hope you all have a good day and feel free to do whatever you want with this deck!

falink The deck you suggested me to create has been finished, I hope you enjoy it! Also, I do apologize for making slight changes from what you said by not including any TM: Evolution's in the deck, in testing it didn't really help much.
