The best decks in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokemon TCG Pocket aren't alw🍷a🔥ys the ones with powerful ex Pokemon. Sometimes, a deck full of more common, single-prize Pokemon can pull ahead and compete with the rarest, most powerful cards.

With direct support from Gladion, Silvally is one of the stando✨ut Pokemon from Extradimensional Crisis. It's fast and consistent, just like Space-Time Smackdown star Rampardos. Combining the two in a single deck gives you one of the quickest, most reliable decks in any of Pokemon TCG Pocket's metagames. Here's how to build and play a Silvally / Rampardos deck of your own.

Sample Decklist

Aside from Gladion and Professor's Research, the Supporters in this deck can be changed to meet your needs and playstyle. Giovanni, Pokemon Center Lady, and Guzm🐲a are all excellent additions to this deck.

Silvally Rampardos Strategy

Since it's the only Basic Pokemon in the deck, Type: Null will always be your first Pokemon, and Gl♈adion allows you to find the second Type: Null or Silvally easily. This makes gameplay incredibly consistent.

Type: Null can attack for 20 to 40 damage on your first turn if you're going second, then evolve to Silvally and attack for 100 damage on your next turn, as long as you've played a Supporter card that turn. Playing a Supporter before it evolves counts, so use Gladion to find Silvally, evolve, and attack.

The deck is chock-full of supporters, so playing one each turn shouldn't be an issue. Some, like Gladion and Professor's Research, will see normal play, while others, like Mars and Red, can be used specifically to boost Silvally's Brave Buddies attack.

While Silvally is scoring KOs on low-HP Pokemon and softening bigger ones, look for a Skull Fossil to start prepping your Rampardos. You'll need either Cranidos or a Rare Ca꧙ndy to evolve it, and since you🦹r search options are limited, Iono is one of the best ways to dig for all three cards.

Rampardos's Head Smash deals 130 damage, and only needs one Fighting Energy. This allows Rampardos to clean up all of your opponent's weakened Pokemon, and even threaten big ex Pokemon. Just be careful: Head Smash also deals 50 damage to 𝓀Rampardos.

If it's safe t♏o attack with Cranidos, do that before evolving it into Rampardos. Cranidos's Headbutt can deal 50 damage without hurting itself, allowing you to save its HP for later.

Be aggressive with this deck: Every Pokemon in the deck can hit hard for two Energy or less, and they're all single-Prize Pokemon, so you don't need to be too concerned about one or two of them being Knocked Out. Try to trade KOs with ex Pokemon, and score early KOs on Basic Pokemoไn before they c⛄an evolve.

Silvally Rampardos Matchups

Giratina Ex / Darkrai Ex

The Silvally / Rampardos deck is at a slight disadvantage against 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Giratina ex / Darkrai ex decks. Giratina ex can OHKO everything in the deck except Rampardos, but since Head Smash damages itself, Rampardos is effectively down with one Chaotic Impact.

Aggression is key in this matchup. If you can trade your Rampardos for your opponent's Giratina ex, you'll be ahead in the Point race, giving you a little breathing room to take out Giratina ex. The second🍌 Rampardos, with Red or Giovanni, can seal the deal in this match.

Magnezone / Shiinotic

You'll have a solid advantage against 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the Magnezone / Shiinotic deck, since it takes a little time to set up and is vulnerable until it does. Magnezone is the only real threat, but if you can take both of them out, you'll haveไ no problem closing out the game.

Your opponent will probably want to hold Magneton and use Volt Charge a couple of times before evolving it, which gives you an opening: Silvally, Rampardos, and even Cranidos with Giovanni can OHKO Magneton, preventing your opponent fro꧋m seꦛtting up their only legitimate threat.

Meowscarada Decidueye Ex

The Meowscarada / Decidueye ex archetype is another one that wants a little time to set up, which allows you to get a head start. Your Silvally / Rampardos also eschews ex Pokemon, making your opponent's main attacker, Meowscarada, significantly less useful.

Typically, your opponent wants to use Sprigatito to search for Pokemon for a couple of turns before evolving it. Rare Candy eliminates some of the disadvantages of this strategy, but you should be able to take out Sprigatito early and Decidueye soon after.
