Mega Kangaskhan ex is the main attacker for this deck, while Greninja provides secondary support.
Set Mega Kangaskhan ex in the Active Spot and use its attack to KO Pokemon. Meanwhile, set up Greninja in the Bench and use its Water Shuriken Ability to snipe your opponent's Benched Pokemon, then gust them out with Cyrus.
This deck relies on Mantyke for Water Energy attachments, as it does not run Water Energy in the Energy Zone. This makes Pom-Pom Oricorio a more reliable secondary attacker.

Mega Kangaskhan is best paired with Pokemon that can deal damage from the Bench. Use Pokemon like Greninja or Darkrai ex to lower the HP of Pokemon so they are within range of Mega Kangaskhan's damage. You can also use them to gust out Pokemon that can be OHKO'd by Mega Kangaskhan using Cyrus.


When Mega Kangaskhan ex is close to getting KOd, you can use Ilima to scoop it back in your hand. Putting Pokemon back in your hand removes all damage from them, but will discard their Energy. Be sure to set up Mega Kangaskhan ex's Energy while it's Benched before sending it into the Active Spot.



Force Mega Kangaskhan ex out of the Active Spot using cards like Sabrina, Cyrus, and Repel before it's ready to attack. This will force the Mega Kangaskhan player to either keep it there or have Ilima available.

Mega Kangaskhan ex will take up to 40 damage if it attacks into a Pokemon holding Rocky Helmet. This can put it into KO range for some Pokemon, and win you the game.
