Pikachu ex and Zapdos ex is a great pick against Starmie ex and Lapras ex, since these two can easily nuke Starmie and Lapras with enough preparation.
If you do not have Pikachu ex or Zapdos ex, you can make use of the Sabrina card, along with other Lightning-type Pokemon to wear down the Water-type focused deck.

Moltres ex and Charizard ex can quickly deal with Grass-types after a successful ramp with Inferno Dance.
Completing some of the Solo Battle tasks should be easy with this deck, but achieving victory by turn 14 may require a bit of luck!

This deck features a variety of powerful Fire-type Pokemon, aiming to ramp using Moltres ex to stack energy on Arcanine ex and Charizard ex. Using Starmie ex to quickly deal with the Fire-types early on is a good counter, or using Articuno ex to deal damage to the opponent's Bench can help you win more easily.
Other Water-types can also be used to clear this Solo Battle, and Water-types like Lapras or Greninja should also perform well against this deck!

Heliolisk's attack costs 2 energy, and can deal 60 danage consistently against water types, and 100 damage if you get lucky with the coin flip. This should be enough to take out most of the Pokemon in this deck, and having Pikachu ex on your deck allows you to also make use of Pikachu's quick and high damage output by benching Lightning-types!
Other Lightning-types are also viable, but Articuno ex can pose a threat to your Pokemon, especially if you have mostly Basic Lightning-types like Pincurchin and Electabuzz.

Dugtrio is a great counter to the Pikachu ex deck, since Dig only costs 1 energy, and being lucky with coin flips should protect Dugtrio from being knocked out.
Other Fighting-type Pokemon can be used against the Pikachu ex Deck, just be mindful of Pikachu ex' surprisingly high damage output.

Muk and Weezing's synergy should be enough to stand up against Mewtwo ex. Try to set up a combo of Gas Leak and Venoshock to quickly knock out Mewtwo ex, and scoring the last point should be much easier.
Other Dark types can be used against this deck effectively, just keep in mind that Dark-types like Nidoking and Nidoqueen require time to set up, and lots of energy to attack, allowing Mewtwo ex and Gardevoir to set up if left unchecked.

Gardevoir and Mewtwo ex makes quick work of the Fighting-types in this deck, allowing Mewtwo ex to OHKO with the help of Gardevoir's ability.
Other Psychic-type Pokemon can be used effectively against this deck, with Alakazam and Gengar ex being good alternatives if you do not have Mewtwo ex or Gardevoir.
