Scolipede Deck Strategy Guide

Scolipede's Venoshock

Besides Weezing's Gas Leak, Whirlipede can reliably set up a KO for the next turn using Poison Sting. Consistently finding Venipede and evolving to Whirlipede can help you close out games when Scolipede comes out to attack.

How to Beat Scolipede Decks

Faster Setup and Offense

Decks that can easily take out Koffing and Venipede are difficult to go up against. Scolipede Decks typically shine against decks that take lots of turns to set up. This means it may struggle against quicker and more aggressive decks.
