Pokemon TGC Pocket - Mega Kangaskhan ex Deck (Fantastical Parade) Deck Build and How to Play

How to Beat Mega Kangaskhan ex Expert Solo Battle

Opponent's Card List

Oricorio ×2 Hearthflame Mask Ogerpon ×2 Mega Kangaskhan ex ×2 Leaf ×2
Giant Cape ×2 Cyrus ×1 Red ×2 Copycat ×1
Starting Plains ×2 Poke Ball ×2 Professor's Research ×2
Energy Used
Colorless Icon

Use Fast and Powerful Attackers

You may use Pokemon with low Attack Costs in order to attack and land KOs right away. Mega Lopunny ex can be used to take advantage of Mega Kangaskhan ex's Weakness. Alternatively, you may use Suicune ex to counter the Fire-types in this deck.

KO Hearthflame Mask Ogerpon Quickly

Hearthflame Mask Ogerpon can accelerate Energy for Mega Kangaskhan ex. It is best to focus on knocking it out to avoid getting hit by Double-Punching Family early.

You may OHKO it with a powerful attacker such as Suicune ex. Rampardos and Silvally are also good single-point options.

Send Mega Kangaskhan ex to the Bench

Mega Kangaskhan ex can be difficult to deal with due to its high damage output. You may send it to the Bench using Sabrina or Cyrus so you can focus on landing KOs on other Pokemon.

Pheromosa and Decidueye ex Deck

Rowlet ×2 Decidueye ex ×2 Dartrix ×1 Pheromosa ×2
Erika ×2 Pokemon Communication ×1 Rare Candy ×2 Leaf Cape ×2
Lillie ×1 Hau ×1 Poke Ball ×2 Professor's Research ×2
Energy Used
Grass Icon

This deck has Pheromosa as an early-game attacker, being able to damage both Active Pokemon and Benched Pokemon. Once Decidueye ex is set up, it can attack the Pokemon that Pheromosa has damaged with Pierce the Pain.

In order to avoid getting KO'd, you may use the Leaf Cape to increase your Pokemon's HP. You may also heal their HP with Erika.

The deck gains access to Hau, which can boost Decidueye ex's damage. Do note that this can only increase the damage of Razor Leaf, and Pierce the Pain if it is damaging the Active Pokemon.

Giovanni ×1 Sabrina ×1 Skull Fossil ×2 Rare Candy ×2
Guzma ×1 Gladion ×2 Silver ×2 Professor's Research ×2
Energy Used
Fighting Icon

Type: Null is guaranteed to be your Basic Pokemon upon starting a match, since it's the only Basic Pokemon in this deck. You should be able to evolve it quickly with the help of Gladion and Professor's Research.

Once you have Silvally on hand, it's recommended to use Supporter cards every turn in order to boost your attack's damage to 100.

Silvally isn't your only source of damage on this deck, though. Rampardos allows you to have a bulkier Pokemon in your deck that can do a lot of damage without too much setup. You can get this Pokemon in this deck by using Rare Candy on a Skull Fossil.

Iono x1 Non-Basic Pokemon with 3+ Retreat Cost x12
Energy Used
Fighting Icon

This is a flexible deck that revolves around Mega Rising Golurk and its Heavy Rocket attack which can deal up to 180 Damage with only 2 Energy.

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.

Since the core consists of only 8 cards, the other 12 cards of the deck can be filled up with different Pokemon from the Fantastical Parade Expansion, fulfilling the requirements of the Battle Task.

Just make sure to only add Stage 1 and Stage 2 Pokemon so that you are guaranteed a Golett in your starting hand and with Poke Ball. Additionally, only add those with Retreat Costs of 3 or more to empower Golurk's Heavy Rocket.

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

Expansions Cards to Get and Packs to Open
