Deck Primer

Wanted to make a Wailord Deck eventually so decided to release it today.

Strategy: Basically start off setting up your board and prepare to use Budew to item-lock them. Artazon helps you search your deck for basically all your Basic Pokémon besides Fez. Baxcalibur helps you get the Energy onto Wailord pretty quickly, Heavy Baton helps keep some Energy in play when knocked out. Additionally, Luxurious Cape makes Wailord go to 340 HP for a Stage 1 which is insane but you do give up 2 Prizes

Wanted to make a Wailord Deck eventually so decided to release it today.

Strategy: Basically start off setting up your board and prepare to use Budew to item-lock them. Artazon helps you search your deck for basically all your Basic Pokémon besides Fez. Baxcalibur helps you get the Energy onto Wailord pretty quickly, Heavy Baton helps keep some Energy in play when knocked out. Additionally, Luxurious Cape makes Wailord go to 340 HP for a Stage 1 which is insane but you do give up 2 Prizes now but that's a pretty good Trade-Off as you're a Tank now with Wailord. Regigigas helps as an attacker later on to help OHKO Pult or Zard being main examples. The ACE SPEC of choice, Scoop-Up Cyclone is insanely good in this deck as you can reset a Wailord to fully heal them to then use Baxcalibur to put the Energy onto a Full HP Wailord and also can possibly reattach Luxurious Cape. Turo's Scenario does reset Wailord to stop a KO but it does discard the Energy in the Process but that can be recovered with Super Rod or Night Stretcher. Anyways, feel free to make any changes or leave any suggestions!

None of my friends know about this card.
Imma buy this exact deck (your decklist) and use it and pretend i'm playing Garde like usually do, I BRING OUT THE WAILORD AND THEY'LL EXPLODE.

Lugiawings Sorry for the delayed response, though good luck using Wailord and yeah it is kind of stupid to use as it can either go good or bad.

Interesting list, I've wanted a deck to try out with Wailord so I'll try out this list online to see how well it does.
