Start with Lippow in active position to deal early damage while building your bench. Evolve Tarsal into Gardevoir, whose Ability will allow you to quickly generate Energy for Mewtwo ex. Once ready, use Psychic Force to take control of the game. Watch out for Dark attacks that exploit your weakness.

- Pikachu ex (x2) , Zapdos ex (x2) , Voltorb (x2) , Electrode (x2) - Pikachu Booster
- Giovanni (x2) - Mewtwo Booster

With Pikachu EX and Zapdos EX, alternate between their attacks to maximize damage. Electro Circle is formidable when your bench is full. This deck is easier to build and is an excellent counter to other Tier S decks. However, beware of weaknesses to Fighting attacks.

This deck relies on Charizard EX's gradual buildup. While you're preparing Charizard EX on the bench, Moltres EX can activate Infernal Dance to build up the necessary Energy. Once ready, Charizard EX becomes a damage machine. Water attacks, however, are a weakness to watch out for.
The Venusaur ex deck: The Champion of Survival

Cards required :
- Venusaur ex (x2) , Exeggutor ex (x2) , Bulbasaur (x2) , Ivysaur (x2) , Eggnog (x2) , Exeggutor (x1) - Mewtwo and Charizard Boosters
