Tyrantrum Deck Variants	Strengths and Weaknesses
Tyrantrum and Passimian ex Deck [★ Best ★]	Strengths: • Tyrantrum can deal up to 180 damage under certain conditions. • Passimian ex can transfer Energy to Tyrantrum once it has been KO'd. Weaknesses: • Weak against decks with fewer Pokemon. • Tyrantrum can take time to set up and evolve.

Tyrantrum and Passimian ex Deck

Passimian ex ×1	Tyrunt ×1	Tyrantrum ×2	Sabrina ×1
Giant Cape ×1	Rocky Helmet ×2	Cyrus ×1	Mars ×1
Rare Candy ×2	Lillie ×1	Copycat ×2	Jaw Fossil ×2
Red Card ×1	Professor's Research ×2
Energy Used

Since Passimian ex is the only Basic Pokemon in the deck, it is guaranteed to be the early-game attacker. It can deal a decent amount of damage until it is KO'd. It can then transfer its energy to Tyrantrum with Offload Pass.

Once Tyrantrum is in the Active Spot, it can attack with Tyrannical Fang. It can deal 180 damage if you have less Pokemon in play than your opponent.

Tyrantrum Deck Strategy Guide

Use an Early-Game Attacker

Tyrantrum is a Stage 2 Pokemon, so it can take time to set up. It is best to evolve it on the Bench while using an early-game attacker in your Active Spot.

Passimian ex is a great option, as it can transfer its Energy onto Tyrantrum after getting knocked out.

Have Less Pokemon in Play

Tyrantrum's Tyrannical Fang can deal 180 damage if you have less Pokemon in play than your opponent. If Tyrantrum is in the Active Spot, it is best to avoid putting more Pokemon on the Bench.

How to Beat Tyrantrum Decks

Hand Disruption

Tyrantrum decks may need to rely on other cards to help it evolve. You may shuffle the cards in your opponent's hand back into the deck in order to disrupt their strategy.

Keep Your Bench Clear

Tyrantrum deals more damage if its opponent has more Pokemon in play than its player. To avoid this, it is best to refrain from filling up your Bench before Tyrantrum is KO'd.
