Match Your Opponent's Card Advantage
You opponent will try to build up their Bench while using Suicune ex to get into Mega Swampert ex quicker. Try to match their tempo by using your own Legendary Beast to Draw into your own pieces.
Attack Mudkip and Suicune ex in the Bench
The opponent's strategy is to use either Mantyke to place Energy on their other Pokemon, or use Suicune ex to increase their Draws.
Use Pokemon that can attack the Bench to either force them to the Active Zone and waste Energy, or knock Mudkip out before they can set up Mega Swampert ex.
Cards That Can Damage the Bench
Stall out with Pom-Pom Oricorio
The opponent will most likely try and attack with either Suicune ex or Mega Swampert ex to attack. You can stall out with Pom-Pom Oricorio and get your board active if they manage to get the upper hand.

The 2 Golett should be the only Basic Pokemon of this deck, and there are 4 Supporters to help you look for the Golurk for evolution.

As a bonus, you can add or remove Mega Evolution ex cards as needed to fulfill other Battle Tasks.
