Finisher | Status Inducer | Description |
---|---|---|
Dragonite | Weezing |
・Dragonite can deal heavy scattered damage with Draco Meteor. ・Weezing can inflict Poison using its Gas Leak ability. |
Best Starting Hand |
---|
An ideal starting hand would include Kangskhan, Koffing, and Dratini. Also a way to find it's evolutions like Professor's Research.
Be mindful of the Energy attachments for Dragonite, as it requires both Water and Lightning Energies. Since this deck doesn't use Dark Energy, you don't need to worry about Weezing's energy costs as its ability will be the key component of your strategy.
Recommended Starting Hand |
---|
Should you end up having less essential cards at hand, make use of your Trainer Cards such as Poke Ball or Professor's Research to draw into one.
Dragonite and Weezing Deck Strategies | |||
---|---|---|---|
|
Click the links above to jump to a certain section!
Early Game Kangaskhan | ||
---|---|---|
Set up the board by having Kangaskhan be the Active Pokemon and deal damage to your opponent while Koffing and Dratini takes their time to evolve on the bench.
You can use Trainer Cards such as Professor's Research and Poke Ball if you are missing a few essential cards for your strategy.
Once Dragonite and Weezing have evolved on the bench and Dragonite has enough energy to attack, the second strategy comes into play.
Start by making Weezing your Active Pokemon to inflict Poison on your opponent’s Pokemon with its Ability. Then, use Koga to scoop Weezing out for free and bring in Dragonite to deliver a massive scattered damage across the board.
Key Card(s) Required | |
---|---|
Step | Description |
1 | First, set up your Kangaskhan to tank and deal damage while you get your Koffing and Dratini to evolve on the bench. |
2 | Use your Trainer cards like Poke Ball and Professor's Research to search for other essential cards you are missing. |
Key Card(s) Required | |
---|---|
Step | Description |
1 | Koffing now evolves into Weezing, allowing it to activate its Gas Leak ability to inflict Poison on your opponent’s Active Pokémon. Swap it with Kangaskan so it can use its ability. This pressures the opponent to switch or spend energy to retreat in order to remove the Poison status. |
2 | Heal your Weezing with Potion if necessary since it might have received some damage from tanking. |
3 | At the same time, your Dratini should now be evolved as well into Dragonair.. |
Key Card(s) Required | |
---|---|
1 | Once your Dragonair has evolved into Dragonite and has enough energy to use Draco Meteor, you can switch it up with Weezing and inflict heavy scattered damage across the board. |
2 | Use Koga to scoop Weezing back into your hand. If your opponent's Active Pokemon is newly switched in, be sure to activate Weezing's Gas Leak ability before retrieving it. |
Deck | Commentary |
---|---|
Charizard ex Decks |
・ Charizard ex decks will struggle to take down Dragonite due to their slow setup. ・Additionally, the opponent will be pressured to constantly switch their Active Pokemon to remove the Poison Status. ・Dragonite's ability to deal random heavy damage to both the active and benched Pokemon makes it especially strong against this deck, which relies heavily on having multiple Pokémon on the bench |
Deck | Commentary |
---|---|
Machamp ex Decks |
・Since Weezing will be your tank and will be your Active Pokemon in the early game, Fighting-type decks can put you into a disadvantage due to their type advantage. ・You can counter this by immediately having Dragonite be your Active Pokemon and tank damage, however it can't perform an attack unless it has the required energies yet. |
This deck functions by pressuring your opponent to frequently switch their Active Pokemon to remove the Poison status.
Meanwhile, you build up Dragonite in the bench and provide it's energy until it can unleash lethal damage, setting up for a powerful knockout and possible finisher.
Card | Explanation |
---|---|
Muk |
・ You can replace the entire Weezing evolution line with a Muk evolution line. It has more HP, to stay on the field longer. ・ Alternatively, you can swap out the entire Dragonite evolution line for a Muk evolution line, shifting the deck's focus to a Poison Lock strategy. ・ Grimer can inflict Poison status immediately without the need to evolve. ・ Muk can deal an additional 50 damage to a Poisoned Pokemon. ・ Can also be scooped up by Koga. |
Card | Possible Cuts |
---|---|
Kangaskhan |
・ You can swap out a Sabrina for another copy of Kangaskhan to add an aditional attacker that doesn't require evolution. ・Since switching Pokemon from Active to Benched removes the Poison status, Sabrina may become less effective during the late-game setup. |

This deck replaces Dragonite's evolution line and incorporates Muk and Grimer for a pure Poison Lock strategy.
The overall strategy becomes different wherein your main focus is to deal fast attacks with less energy requirement, and inflicting Poison at the same time, pressuring your opponent to continuously switch out their Actvie Pokemon to remove the status effect.
