Tsareena Deck Strategy Guide

Use the Rare Candy

The Rare Candy allows you to evolve Bounsweet into Tsareena immediately. This may provide you an opportunity to use Three Kick Combo by Turn 3.

Increase Survivability With Tools and Healing

Tsareena might not be able to OHKO opponents due to bad coin flips. You may increase its HP with the Leaf Cape to give it more bulk and help it survive longer.

Mallow is also good to have, as it can fully heal Tsareena's HP. You may also use other healing cards such as Erika and Pokemon Center Lady.

How to Beat Tsareena Decks

Use Fast Fire-Types

You may use Pokemon with a Type advantage that can attack faster in order to KO Tsareena quickly. Ninetales and Rapidash are good choices for single-point attackers.

Score OHKOs With High-Damage Attacks

Tsareena has access to many healing options, making it hard to defeat if you don't knock it out in one hit. You may counter it with Pokemon that are able to land an OHKO.
