This deck will help you complete this battle's tasks which require you to use Water-types and use cards with diamond rarities only, among others.

The main attacker for this deck is Blastoise, who boasts high HP and whose damage depends on how many Water Energy it has. You can use Misty to easily nab some Energy so you can attack as early as possible. Additionally, you can also set up Cloyster who has an Ability which can mitigate some damage while dealing some damage as you set up Blastoise on your Bench.

You can then use the rest of your Trainer cards for utility.
