Best Incineroar ex Decks

Incineroar ex Deck Variants	Strengths and Weaknesses
Incineroar ex [★ Best ★]	Strengths: • Incineroar ex can reliably and consistently deal damage with its moves. • Only uses six card slots for Litten's line, with the rest for Trainer cards. Weaknesses: • Relies on a frail Litten and Torracat to set up Incineroar ex. • You only have two Pokemon to use for the whole deck.
Shining Revelry Charizard ex and Incineroar ex Deck	Strengths: • Shining Revelry Charizard can set itself up if it has to using Stoke. • Steam Artillery deals a sizeable 150 damage, which is enough to KO most ex Pokemon. • Incineroar ex is difficult to KO. Weaknesses: • Runs multiple Stage 2 lines which could make it inconsistent. • Has multiple ways to disrupt opponents' hands with Iono and Red Card, which could prevent other Stage 2 decks from setting up.
Blacephalon and Incineroar ex Deck	Strengths: • Incineroar ex can reliably and consistently deal damage with its Attacks. • Lusamine can attach Energy onto Blacephalon once Charizard ex has fainted. Weaknesses: • Incineroar ex line in the deck requires some setup. • Blacephalon takes a large amount of damage whenever it attacks.

This deck makes use of Shining Revelry Charizard ex as the deck's main attacker with Incineroar ex as its backup.

Energy Used

Incineroar works as the deck's primary attacker, tanking damage and dealing damage with its effective attack options and high HP.

The deck runs two copies of Leaf to ensure that Blacephalon is able to switch out should you start with it.

Set up an Incineroar ex, and use Lusamine to set up Blacephalon for a big swing to end the match.

Incineroar ex Deck Strategy Guide

Inflict Recoil Damage with Litten or Torracat

The first step you should do when using this deck is to let Litten or Torracat damage itself with Heat Tackle, as this is needed for Incineroar ex to get bonus damage with its attack later on.

If you have Rare Candy inhand, make sure to get recoil damage first before using it to evolve Litten, as Incineroar ex has no way of inflicting damage to itself.

However, if attacking will put Litten into critical health and prone to getting knocked out on the next turn, it is best to avoid this and just evolve Litten instead.

Early Incineroar ex Attacks

If you are playing second in the match, you can take recoil damage as Litten on your first turn, then evolve into Incineroar ex with Rare Candy on your second turn.

From this, you'll be able to deal 50 damage on your first turn as Litten, 30 damage on your second turn as Incineroar ex, and 20 damage from the Burn status.

In most cases, the total damage from these is able to knock out several Pokemon very quickly.

How to Beat Incineroar ex Decks

KO Litten or Torracat Before It Evolves

Even if Incineroar ex has much potential, it still relies on Litten and Torracat to be in good shape throughout the setup.

WIth this, you can make use Trainer cards or Pokemon like Hitmonlee to shut down either Pokemon quickly.

If there are only 2x basic pokemon, why would you need 2x pokeballs? Also, is Lilly better than Joy or potions? I feel like Lilly would heal incineroar too much, possibly negating it's stronger attack, and it can't be used earlier if Litten or Toracat take too much damage while setting up.
