Shining Revelry Pikachu ex Deck Strategies

Use Pachirisu to Generate Energy

Pachirisu can provide Pikachu ex with Lightning energy with its move Plasma. This allows the player to attach the Energy they need to Pikachu ex while keeping it safe and dealing chip damage. It may also be optimal to Bench Shaymin in order to easily retreat Pachirisu without any cost, and then use Dawn to transfer one Lightning energy from Pachirisu to Pikachu ex.

Deal Additional Damage With Trainer Cards

Pikachu ex may not be able to KO certain Pokemon with higher HP or Pokemon equipped with the Giant Cape. In these cases, attaching the Rocky Helmet or using Red can help score you KOs.

How to Beat Shining Revelry Pikachu ex Decks

Use Strong Fighting-Type Pokemon With High HP

Pikachu ex is not that bulky and is weak to Fighting-type Pokemon. Using Pokemon like Gallade ex or Garchomp ex not only gives you an offensive type advantage, but they can also survive an unboosted Thunderbolt. You may also opt to use Giant Cape to ensure that Pikachu ex doesn't take a knock out.

Fast Fighting Pokemon

Fighting-types that are able to impose their offense will be able to outpace a Pikachu ex deck, especially if they're unable to get their Pikachu ex online in time.

Fast and efficient Fighting-types that can attack for few Energy are sure to get an upper hand in these matchups.

Remove Energy from Pikachu ex

Pikachu ex's Thunderbolt has a steep Attack Cost at 3. Cards that can discard your opponent's Energy such as Beedrill ex and Team Rocket Grunt can help in deny it a turn to attack.

Do remember, however, that Beedrill ex and Team Rocket Grunt only discard Energy from the Active Pokemon.
