Deck Primer

The Zoroark Control deck focuses on running the opponent out of win conditions. We have Morpeko to get back item cards with its Gather Food attack. This means that we could get back Fan of Waves, Crushing Hammer, or even things like Rescue Carrier or Ordinary Rod. Seaking's Ripping Horn attack allows us to flip 3 coins and for each heads, we can discard an Energy card from the opponent's Active Pokemon. Galarian Perrserker's Stealy Claws attack allows us to flip 3 coins and if any of them are heads,

Seaking's Ripping Horn attack allows us to flip 3 coins and for each heads, we can discard an Energy card from the opponent's Active Pokemon. Galarian Perrserker's Stealy Claws attack allows us to flip 3 coins and if any of them are heads, your opponent reveals their hand. For each heads, we can discard a Trainer card from the opponent's hand. We run 1 Dusknoir which its Spectral Breach Ability makes it so Special Energy in play are now Colorless Energy and have no other effects. We run 1 Gorebyss for its Rapid Strike Canceler Ability which makes it so that Rapid Strike Pokemon in play have no Abilities. I hope you enjoy this decklist and feel free to comment down below if you have a card suggestion for this decklist or a deck suggestion!

Have you thought about Slurpuff instead of Morpeko?

If Seaking and Perrserker are to be your main attacker, and I believe they should be, then you should put more of them in there along with more of their respective energy types considering both the attacks you will be using have colored energy costs.

I am an absolute fan of this deck. I think firstly, a good upgrade would be to play some Aurora Energy, whcih cn help use more attacks rather than trying to dig for the energy. However, you could go with the basic energy route as well and slap on an Eldegoss in there to get any energy out, which in my opinion, synergises really well with this deck. Secondly, you could try using the new Floatzel from Brilliant Stars, which is basically Sableye's Junk Hunt, much stronger than Morpeko. It can also be used via Zoroark, which can be super useful as well. It also shares the same Water Energy as Seaking, which can save you on some deck space that is really useful in control decks. Also, a neat inclusion would be a Flapple to give you a surprise offensive option against Pokemon decks that rely heavily on abilities. Lumineon V will also help feed the attack. Other than that, this deck gets a nice 5/5.

Podski, thanks for the comment! I have not thought about Slurpuff instead of Morpeko until now. Slurpuff could be better, I will test it out!

CorvusVision, thanks for the comment! I did take out the Metal Energy and Water Energy for 2 Aurora Energy, it seems better just running Aurora Energy instead of 2 different Energy types. When I made this deck, Brilliant Stars wasn't out yet, so I will be making another decklist with Brilliant Stars included. I will be putting in at least 1 Floatzel from Brilliant Stars when I make the deck today.

Riperillaboom, thanks for the comment! Seaking and Galarian Perrserker are situational so that is the reason why I only run 1 of each of them. Also, I just added in Aurora Energy so that it can be useful for both Seaking and Galarian Perrserker.
