Galarian Cursola Deck Variants	Strengths and Weaknesses
Galarian Cursola and Sylveon ex Deck [★ Best ★]	Strengths: • Galarian Cursola can knock out an opponent with its Ability while Giratina ex is setting up in the Bench. • Sylveon ex can speed up card draws with its Ability. Weaknesses: • Galarian Cursola's Ability can fail. • Giratina ex takes time to set up, requiring another Pokemon to take the Active spot and tank the opponent's attacks until it's finished.

Galarian Cursola and Sylveon ex Deck

Giratina ex ×2	Sylveon ex ×2	Eevee ×2	Galarian Corsola ×2
Galarian Cursola ×2	Sabrina ×1	Giant Cape ×1	Cyrus ×1
Mars ×1	Pokemon Center Lady ×1	Red ×1	Poke Ball ×2
Professor's Research ×2
Energy Used

This Galarian Cursola and Sylveon ex deck lets Galarian Cursola stay on the Active spot to act as a wall that can also knock out attacking opponents with its Perish Body Ability and give Giratina ex enough time to set up.

Sylveon ex's main role is to draw cards and find evolution cards to speed up your setup. Galarian Cursola can then protect Giratina ex until the latter gathers enough Energy for a Chaotic Impact sweep.

Expansions	Cards to Get and Packs to Open
Genetic Apex (A1)	Sabrina x 1 (Charizard Pack)
Mythical Island (A1a)	No cards needed from this expansion.
Spacetime Smackdown (A2)	Giant Cape x 1 (Dialga Pack) Cyrus x 1 (Palkia Pack) Mars x 1 (Palkia Pack)

Galarian Cursola Deck Strategy Guide

Let Galarian Cursola Get Knocked Out

Galarian Cursola's Ability makes it a deadly tank that will force your opponent to also take a gamble on whether or not to knock it out. If you win the coin flip triggered by its Perish Body Ability, the attacking Pokemon will also get knocked out regardless of how high its remaining HP is.

Set Up Your Benched Pokemon

With Galarian Cursola acting as defense, have your attacker set up on the Bench with the necessary number of Energy. You can also use Sylveon ex to draw cards faster, especially for your other Galarian Cursola.

How to Beat Galarian Cursola Decks

Switch Galarian Cursola Out

This deck works quite similarly to those that use Druddigon, having a tank with an offensive Ability stay on the Active spot to protect the Pokemon setting up on the Bench.

While your opponent is still preparing, you can switch one of their Benched Pokemon out so you can attack without worrying about Galarian Cursola's Ability triggering.

Use Single Point Pokemon

You can also use Single Point Pokemon to take out Galarian Cursola, so your opponent only gets one point should they win the coin flip and take out your Active Pokemon with Perish Body.
