Mega Pinsir ex & Leafeon ex Deck Strategy
 Use fast Fire-type Pokemon. Increase your Pokemon's HP. Consider conceding if Leafeon ex sets up early. |
Leafeon ex can be threatening in the early-game, being able to evolve and accelerate Energy right away. On the other hand, Mega Pinsir ex can score OHKOs with the use of Will.
You may use Fire-type Pokemon with low Attack Costs to counter them. Mega Blaziken ex and Shining Revelry Charizard ex are great to use if you can evolve them with Rare Candy early.
Flareon ex is also a good choice, but you will need to attach the Giant Cape to prevent it from getting OHKO'd.

Mega Blaziken ex & Entei ex Deck Strategy
|
Use a fast Water-type Pokemon. Send Mega Blaziken ex to the Bench. KO Torchic early. |
Mega Blaziken ex is a powerful card. It has great bulk, the ability to inflict Burn, and an efficient Attack Cost. Entei ex supports it by thinning out your deck with Legendary Pulse, providing more chances to draw the right Trainer and evolution cards.
You may use a fast Water-type Pokemon to KO Torchic before it evolves. Suicune ex is a good option, as it has a low Attack Cost and can deal good damage with a filled-out bench. However, be sure to equip it with the Giant Cape to avoid getting OHKO's by Mega Blaziken ex.
You may also choose to send Mega Blaziken ex to the Bench in order to KO other Pokemon. You may use Greninja's Ability to damage a Pokemon from your opponent's Bench, then draw them out with Cyrus. This will give your main attacker the opportunity to land a KO.

Use Water-type Pokemon. Accelerate Energy to attack faster. Consider conceding if Flareon ex evolves early. |
Entei ex and Flareon ex can do great damage once fully set up. Entei ex's Legendary Pulse also allows the opponent to draw more cards, making it easier to find the right supports and evolutions. It is ideal to land KOs as fast as possible in order to secure the victory.
You may use Water-types for the Type advantage. You may use Misty or Mantyke in order to accelerate Energy and attack faster.

|
Use Lightning-type Pokemon. OHKO your opponent's Pokemon. KO Feebas before it evolves. |
Milotic can heal one of its allies once it evolves. Suicune ex makes it easier to search for with Legendary Pulse, which gives this deck good survivability.
You can KO Feebas early to prevent it from evolving. You may do this by drawing it out to the Active Spot using Sabrina or Cyrus.
You may also use Pokemon that can OHKO your opponents. Shining Revelry Pikachu ex is a good option for a finisher. Cards such as Pichu, Elemental Switch, and Electrical Cord can accelerate its Energy, helping it set up faster.

Pikachu ex is a powerful finisher with high attacking power. Raikou ex helps it set up with Legendary Pulse, drawing more cards to search for supports that can accelerate its Energy.
It is best to use powerful Fighting-type Pokemon such as Rampardos for the Type advantage. It may also be good to discard the opponent's Electrical Cord with Guzma. This will prevent Pikachu ex from using it as a means to accelerate Energy.

You may use fast and Energy-efficient Darkness-type Pokemon. Weavile ex is a good choice, as it can deal 90 damage per hit against a damaged Pokemon with a Type disadvantage. It synergizes well with Darkrai ex and Rocky Helmet, which provide good additional damage.
You may prioritize knocking Ralts or Kirlia out to prevent Gardevoir from accelerating Energy. You may also bring Supporters such as Sabrina and Cyrus since Latios may retreat to the Bench to keep itself from being knocked out.

You may use fast and Energy-efficient Lightning-types such as Zeraora to take out Poliwag and Poliwhirl. You may also opt to use Pom-Pom Oricorio in order to wall Poliwrath ex's damage.

|
Use Fire-type Pokemon. KO Shuckle and Venusaur ex quickly. Consider conceding once Venusaur ex is set up. |
Both Shuckle ex and Venusaur ex are very bulky Pokemon, with their relatively high HP and Shuckle's Solid Shell Ability. This deck also provides multiple options for healing, so it may be difficult to get through these Pokemon.
It is recommended to use a Fire-type deck with strong Pokemon capable of knocking out Shuckle ex in one hit such as Charizard ex or Flareon ex. It's also a good idea to get rid of Bulbasaur and Ivysaur before they can evolve into Venusaur ex.

|
Use Lightning-type Pokemon. Focus on knocking out Ho-Oh ex and Lugia ex. Consider conceding once Lugia ex is set up. |
Lugia ex has a very strong attack in Elemental Blast, but it's major downside is that it requires three different types of Energy which need to be replenished after every use. Ho-Oh provides all three of these Energy types with its attack.
To prevent Lugia ex from setting up, it's recommended to get rid of Ho-Oh as soon as possible using Lightning-type Pokemon that are easy to set up such as Pom-Pom Style Oricorio.

Kingdra ex is difficult to face once it is set up, especially with its Stormy Prison which prevents the Active Pokemon from retreating. It is best to KO it as soon as possible with fast, low-cost Lightning-type Pokemon.
It is best to target Horsea before it can evolve. However, if you do end up facing Kingdra ex, you can opt to use Oricorio to nullify its attacks.

The main gimmick of a Lanturn ex deck is its application of either Paralysis or Confusion whenever Lanturn ex attacks, which can prevent the affected Pokemon from attacking.
A good Fighting Deck with Pokemon Center Lady or Arceus ex is the safest choice against this Expert Solo Battle as it can exploit the opponent's weakness and counter the Status Effects from Flashing Signal.

Espeon ex & Sylveon ex Deck Strategy
|
Use Darkness-type Pokemon. Use fast and Energy-efficient Pokemon. Consider conceding once Espeon ex is set up. |
The Espeon ex and Sylveon ex deck is a very fast deck. By the second turn, it is possible for your opponent to have Sylveon ex, Espeon ex, and Espeon already at play if they have a good hand. Ideally, you want to target Espeon ex first to prevent it from using its healing ability, so preferrably use Pokemon that can OHKO Espeon ex.
However, with Espeon on the board, you should also consider bringing Pokemon that have low attack costs, since Espeon's damage scales based on the amount of energy attached to the Pokemon on the opponent's side. We recommend Pokemon like Donphan ex or Weavile ex who can deal significant damage while requiring only little energy.

|

Donphan ex is a very fast card to set up. It can already start attacking at one energy, and will become only more dangerous the longer you allow it to stay on the board.
Ideally, the best cards to counter Donphan ex would be Grass Cards that have low attack costs. You should also use cards such as Team Rocket Grunt, or Beedrill ex to remove its Energy and prevent it from dealing more damage.

The Pokemon in this deck all have a weakness against Grass-type Pokemon. If you use Grass-type Pokemon that are easy to evolve and can attack almost immediately, you can quickly get the advantage in the game.
A good counter card would be Decidueye ex, who can be set up quickly with Rare Candy and snipe down injured Pokemon in the Bench.
Make sure to use evolved Pokemon to prevent being affected by Umbreon's Dark Binding, and keep your Pokemon healed so you don't get dragged to the Active Spot by Umbreon ex's Dark Chase.

The main challenge with Skarmory ex is that once it gets the opportunity to attack, it will take -20 damage from the attacking Pokemon's move. You will need to act quickly so you should consider bringing Fast Fire-Type Pokemon like Ninetales to defeat it.
You may also consider brining Guzma to counter the Steel Apron.

Shining Revelry Charizard ex is the ideal counter to this deck. It can evolve early with the Rare Candy and accelerate its Energy with Stoke. Once it is properly set up, it can OHKO every opponent with Steam Engine, even if they have the Leaf Cape equipped.

It is ideal to knock out Primarina ex before it evolves, as it can be difficult to defeat once it has access to its great bulk and healing. It may also be good to use Pom-Pom Style Oricorio, as it can nullify the damage from Primarina ex.
Be cautious when attacking Pyukumuku, as it deals 50 damage upon being knocked out.

Skarmory is a good early-game option, as it can immediately deal at least 50 damage with a Pokemon Tool attached. Solgaleo ex can be used in the mid to late game, as it can deal a good amount of damage for only 2 Energy.

The Leaf Cape can be used to increase the HP of the opposing Pokemon, putting them above OHKO range. You may consider conceding if the Leaf Cape is put into play. Alternatively, you can use Guzma to remove it.

Lycanroc ex & Passimian ex Deck Strategy
|
Use Psychic-type Pokemon. Prioritize knocking out Riolu and Rockruff. Consider conceding if the opponent evolves Lycanroc ex and Lucario early. |
This deck's strategy is to use Passimian ex as an early game attacker that can transfer its Energy to Lycanroc ex once it is knocked out. Lucario acts as support, raising its teammates' damage.
You may disrupt this by targetting Rockruff and Riolu. You can use a Pokemon such as Hitmonlee or Pheromosa to attack them while they are Benched. Alternatively, you may draw them out into the Active Spot with Sabrina or Cyrus.

Decidueye ex and Lurantis both have very high HP and are aggressive cards with a low attack cost, so it is better to defeat them before they are evolved.
Use Fire-type Decks to get a type advantage bonus in your attacks. With the help of Rare Candy, you can skip Stage 1 and get your Pokemon to attack sooner. You can also use Sabrina or Cyrus to put weaker Benched Pokemon into the Active Spot.
However, keep in mind that the Decidueye and Lurantis Deck has access to Leaf Cape which can increase the HP of Grass Pokemon by 30 at any time. Watch out for Erika as well for healing.

Unlike other Water-type Pokemon, Crabominable ex is weak against Metal Types.
Once Primarina is built, it can heal Crabominable ex's HP by 30 each turn, so use Metal-type Pokemon that are quick to build so that you can attack them while they are still in their basic evolutions.
Beware of the Giant Cape in the opponent's deck, which can be used to further increase Crabominable ex's bulk.

This deck's strategy is to use Pachirisu to generate extra energy for Oricorio and Alolan Raichu ex, so you want to aim for Pachirisu first to cut off their extra energy supply.
Since all Pokemon in this deck have the same weakness, use Fast Fighting-Type Pokemon to counter Alolan Raichu ex. Oricorio has an ability that negates all damage from ex Pokemon, so bring a mix of 3◇ and ex Pokemon.

Use Lightning-type Pokemon. Target the Benched Pidgey or Pidgeotto. Consider conceding once Kangaskhan does significant damage. |
Weezing is used as a wall as Pidgeot ex is set up in the Bench. You may use Lightning-type Pokemon to counter Pidgeot ex with a Type advantage before it evolves. Sabrina or Cyrus can draw it out to the Active Spot. You may also use cards that can damage Benched Pokemon such as Zebstrika, Electabuzz, and Hitmonlee.

| Use Moltres ex and Charizard ex Use Fire-Type Pokemon |
Moltres ex and Charizard ex can quickly deal with Grass-types after a successful 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!

Charizard ex and Moltres ex Deck Strategy
| Use Starmie ex and Articuno ex Use Water-Type Pokemon |
This deck features a variety of powerful Fire-type Pokemon, aiming to accelerate Energy 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!

Starmie ex & Greninja Deck Strategy
| Use Heliolisk and Pikachu ex Use Lightning-Type Pokemon |
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.

Pikachu ex & Raichu Deck Strategy
| Use Dugtrio Use Fighting-Type Pokemon |
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.

Mewtwo ex & Gardevoir Deck Strategy
| Use Muk and Weezing Use Dark-Type Pokemon |
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.

| Use Mewtwo ex and Gardevoir Use Psychic-Type Pokemon |
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.
