How to play the Pikachu ex deck?

Use Pika Punch for early pressure: it deals 30 damage for one Lightning Energy. Thundertail hits for 130 but discards two Lightning Energy, so time it carefully. Light Ball adds 30 damage, raising those attacks to 60 and 160 respectively. 1

Build Pawmi on your Bench, then use Rare Candy to evolve it directly into Pawmot. Its Electrocreation ability attaches a Lightning Energy from your Energy Zone to your Active Lightning Pokémon once per turn—helpful for replenishing Pikachu after Thundertail. 1

Keep a second Pikachu ex ready on the Bench. Cyrus can pull a damaged opposing Pokémon into the Active Spot, while Red boosts damage against Pokémon ex. 1
