Energy Used |
Probopass ex allows you to lean into defensive play patterns thanks to Defensive Unit's -20 effect and Adaman. This is a welcome change from aggressive gameplay that is usually rewarded in Pokemon TCG Pocket.
Expansions | Cards to Get and Packs to Open |
---|---|
Genetic Apex (A1) | No cards needed from this expansion. |
Mythical Island (A1a) | Leaf x 1 (Mew Pack) |
Spacetime Smackdown (A2) | Skarmory x 2 (Any Pack) Dialga ex x 2 (Dialga Pack) Giant Cape x 2 (Dialga Pack) Rocky Helmet x 2 (Palkia Pack) Dawn x 1 (Dialga Pack) |
Triumphant Light (A2a) | Probopass ex x 2 (Arceus Pack) Adaman x 2 (Arceus Pack) |
Shining Revelry (A2b) | No cards needed from this expansion. |
Promo-A | Poke Ball x 2 (Promo-A Pack) Professor's Research x 2 (Promo-A Pack) Nosepass x 2 (Promo-A Pack) |
While Probopass ex is being set up in the Bench, you may use an early game attacker with a low Attack Cost to chip away at your opponents' HP. Skarmory is highly recommended, as it has an efficient Attack Cost, and can deal 40 damage with a Pokemon Tool attached.
When it is Active, Probopass ex's damage reduction allows the player to make more defensive plays. It is recommended to further increase its survivability with Adaman or add to its bulk with Giant Cape.
Fire-type Pokemon can negate Probopass ex's damage reduction through their type advantage. Most cards still have to take two turns to knock Probopass ex out, but Genetic Apex Charizard ex is able to OHKO it by dealing 200 damage with Crimson Storm.
Best Fire Type Decks & Cards Tier List
The player may also use Lucario or Red to add an additional 20 damage to their Pokemon's attack, mitigating the effects of Defensive Unit. Attaching Rocky Helmet to your Active Pokemon is another alternative, as it can inflict damage on Probopass ex if it chooses to attack.
