Energy: Electric
This deck is a pretty straightforward one when it comes to strategy: rapid energy generation to push you into aggressive play as early as possible and before your opponent can really get a grounding. Zeraora's ability to create energy on itself can get you a good foothold, and Electric Generator and Elemental Switch let you create more energy and move it around. And with Manectric - your main source of damage - only being a Stage 1 that requires two energy to function, you can set up for significant damage before many decks have even got off the ground.
- Pros
- Good energy generation and early game
- Straightforward strategy
- Zero retreat cost on Manectric
- Cons
- Evolution dependant
- Glass cannon build means low health pools
- If Electrike is KO'd, you're finished

He is a firm believer that the vast majority of games would be improved by adding a grappling hook, and if they already have one, they should probably add another just to be safe.
