Deck Source

Low barrier to entry, easy to play, non-ex deck that consistently wipes many meta Genetic Apex decks (including Pikachu ex and Mewtwo ex). 

Remember to turn dark energy generation off in the deck builder  -- this deck does not use it.

The main strategy is to set up Dragonair on the bench as soon as possible. Keep Weezing active while setting up.

Kiloude City Shuffle

  • Bellsprout x2
  • Weepinbell x2
  • Victreebel x2
  • Pidgey x1
  • Pidgeotto x1

  • Old Amber x2

Trainers

This deck is hilarious to play but incredibly frustrating for opponents, especially those with powerhouse decks that require heavy energy buildup.

Start with Bellsprout, aiming to evolve into Victreebel as your primary attacker. Build out Aerodactyl and a second Victreebel next, with Pidgeot as a backup option. Alternatively, starting with Aerodactyl can sometimes lead to a quick win if your opponent’s bench is empty.
