Deck Primer

Decided to make an alternate build for Venusaur ex as Munkidori seems like a decent partner with Venusaur.

Strategy: Unlike the other Venusaur deck I made about 3 weeks ago, instead of it being a secret Hydrapple Deck that will be replaced later today to transition into that, this deck focuses more on Venusaur as an attacker instead of an early one. Budew helps you item-lock your opponent earlier on, Teal Mask is good for Draw Support, Fez is self-explanatory it basically is in every deck.

Decided to make an alternate build for Venusaur ex as Munkidori seems like a decent partner with Venusaur.

Strategy: Unlike the other Venusaur deck I made about 3 weeks ago, instead of it being a secret Hydrapple Deck that will be replaced later today to transition into that, this deck focuses more on Venusaur as an attacker instead of an early one. Budew helps you item-lock your opponent earlier on, Teal Mask is good for Draw Support, Fez is self-explanatory it basically is in every deck. Munkidori helps heal your Pokémon and it moves damage onto your Opponent which can help ensure KO's. Heavy Baton helps keep Energy in play after Venusaur is knocked out, Switch helps in case another Venusaur is trapped in the Active, and Energy Switch helps move Energy from Ogerpon into Venusaur. The ACE SPEC of choice, Grand Tree allows you to get Venusaur up really quickly which is really useful. TM: Evo helps if you're under an item-lock by something like Budew which allows you to get Ivysaur or Venusaur in play. Area Zero Underdepths can probably be replaced with Artazon if you dislike it but it's here since the Board might overflow a bit and the additional 3 more Bench Slots is quite helpful. That's basically all I have to say so feel free to make any changes or leave any suggestions!

It feels weird that I'm making this as the second deck for today so I'll make a 3rd Deck today in addition of the previous Venusaur deck becoming a Hydrapple Deck.

Interesting list, the addition of Munkidori is quite unique due to the fact it heals Venusaur even more. Also, the Hydrapple list looks neat as well.
