Part of the Guardians Rising expansion Tapu Koko GX is extremely powerful, having a list of incredible attacks to choose from. While Tapu Thunder GX, with a damage potential of 50 times the number of energy cards attached to the opponent's pokémon, and Sky-High Claws, with a damage potential of 130 are impressively powerful attacks, it is the Aero Trail ability that takes the c

However, in such a manner it is also possible to overextend oneself. Though this is less of a problem for certain water pokemon in the TCG because they get exponentially more powerful as they gain energy as opposed to most pokemon who only get additively stronger. They can also paralyze foes as well as string together some cool combos. Water type decks are all about manipulating energy, as well as possibly stunning the opponent's pokemon, while utilizing unique secondary strategies for an unpredictable and appropriately fluid offense. Much like a rogue wave that the enemy won't see coming until it crashes down upon t

This finishing blow will take some time to set up, even with energy search cards, however, the Grass-typing of this Ultra Beast duo grants trainers some great ways to build up energy relatively quickly. Pokemon cards of this type sometimes carry abilities that can attach energy cards from one's deck, hand, or discard pile to an ally with little to no effort, so a Grass deck themed around this should be able to bring out Pheromosa & Buzzwole's true potent

One of the more intimidating cards from the Neo Destiny set, Dark Feraligatr can prevent the Pokemon Powers of Baby Pokemon simply by Slgdaily being in play. However, this gator's main strength is its Crushing Blow attack that not only does a great 50 damage but also has half a chance of causing the injured foe to discard one of their energy ca

Vanilluxe has an ability called Bitter Cold that lets their trainer flip a coin free of cost (save for having Vanilluxe in their active pokemon slot) that can make the opposing active pokemon Paralyzed. Having an ability to do the freezing leaves Vanilluxe able to attack with the 90 damage Frost Smash that only requires 2 energy. In two or three turns, given good draws, one can go from a no-energy Vanillite to a full-power Vanilluxe that acts essentially like a living blizz

It is also resistant to Steel or Metal-type cards and boasts of a considerable 220 HP. It is an extremely powerful Electric-type card if all of its traits are taken into consideration and therefore, should not be underestima

The Pokemon series has an extensive history of innovation and experimentation. In every new Generation, Nintendo and the various developers of Pokemon media franchises implement aspects meant to keep these pocket monsters relevant and interesting for each new generation of gamers. This sometimes involves them using peripheral devices in conjunction with existing conso

Thunder Lance, on the other hand, deals a base damage of 50, and, for every electric energy that has been attached to Raikou, it deals a further 20 damage, all for the cost of 3-colorless energy cards. Used in synergy with Max Elixir, Raikou becomes simply unstoppa

One of the major reasons behind the Pokémon TCG amassing such craze is the dynamic nature of gameplay that it promises. The various card types that players get to choose from is definitely a contributing factor to it. While there are many powerful grass type pokémon , or dark type pokémon , there exists yet another type that boasts of impressive and powerful pocket monsters. This type is none other than the Lightning type, also known as the Electric t

There may be times when this strategy does not go as planned, due to it needing 4 specific cards for it to work, though there is another tactic that can be added on with minimal effort and resources. Including some Barraskewda cards, which Arrokuda can evolve into, can give one an excellent fallback strategy. If one's Cramorant gets knocked out before they can use Continuous Gulp Missile, this will leave their trainer with a bunch of comparatively week Arrokuda, which would get knocked out fairly quickly. Evolving them into Barraskewda will result in a fast, moderate-HP card that can directly damage the active opponent or even assault their benched poke

Strategies involving different cards can be found among all types, though there are some especially cool ones seen in the more recent expansions. In the Vivid Voltage set, there is a Cramorant card that can do 60 damage multiplied by how many Arrokuda cards are discarded from the bench. Since Cramorant is a basic pokemon, it can be played immediately, making it a great lead pokemon due to its sufficient 110 HP. Their Continuous Gulp Missile costs 2 energy of any type, making it very quick to set up. With one of the common Double Colorless Energy cards, this move can potentially be used on the first turn that Cramorant is act

Despite being the only common-rarity card in the entire Neo Destiny expansion set, this friendly flower is one of the best. Its Reflected Sunlight move allows its trainer to load up any ally Grass-type Pokemon with twice as much grass energy as usual in a single turn, which can make setting up for big attacks much quicker and eas
