#Greatest Lunala ex deck – Pokémon TCG Pocket – Destructoid

Table of Contents

Picture by way of Pokémon Firm
Lunala ex is a bizarre card to construct a deck round in Pokémon TCG Pocket, not solely as a result of it is advisable to evolve it from a Cosmog to a second-stage evolution to get it on the sector, however as a result of there are already so many good Psychic-type decks that it makes it troublesome to warrant utilizing it when Gardevoir, Mew, and so forth, exist as higher help picks.
Whereas its potential to take Psychic power from any benched Pokémon and put all of it on an energetic Pokémon is nice for restoration jobs and switching up the battlefield, it simply seems like there are quicker and higher decks on the market that make Lunala ex much less helpful. If it had been a singular card with out evolutions, then it might have extra sensible advantages, I really feel, however that doesn’t imply it’s ineffective.
In case you do really feel like taking Lunala ex for a spin and wish to strive a enjoyable deck, try the one under—possibly simply don’t take it into ranked play, although.

Basically, what I’ve accomplished with this deck is take a Giratina ex core and added Lunala ex, however not simply to have a slapped collectively deck— however as a result of it really works.
Uncommon Sweet allows you to skip evolving your Cosmog into Cosmeon, which helps you to get Lunala ex out quicker and provides your Giratina ex time to get Psychic power constructing. In case you get two, you possibly can divide the power between each of them after which use Lunala ex to switch the power onto the Energetic or more healthy one, supplying you with the possibility to consistently change out your Pokémon to doubtlessly cease a Ok.O. early on.
The most important draw back this deck has, although, is the heavy use of ex Pokémon. With the introduction of Oricorio (Electrical-type) in Celestian Guardians, ex Pokémon-only decks are not viable. You’ll be able to slap down the Oricorio and, due to its potential, take no harm from any ex assaults in any respect, letting you stall and construct up your backline whereas your opponent sits round helplessly ready for defeat.
Once more, this feels extra like a enjoyable deck to play towards mates or in informal matches over climbing the ranked ladder, as there are much better Psychic-type decks you will be utilizing, together with the usual Giratina ex and Darkrai ex construct. Although I’d like to be confirmed unsuitable by somebody within the feedback who has a greater deck record than what I put collectively, to wipe the ground with my opinion.
So go away your ideas and deck lists within the feedback for me and others to strive!
