Other S Tier decks

  • Mega Absol EX / Darkrai EX / Hoopa EX
    I rank it in S tier because it can create immediate pressure with several complementary attackers. The list has an excellent balance between damage, mobility, disruption and consistency.
  • Mega Sceptile EX / Butterfree
    This is probably one of the most consistent. Caterpie, the draw engine, Quick-Grow Extract and the two Stadiums significantly accelerate the setup of Mega Sceptile EX.
  • Vespiquen ex / Shuckle ex
    The deck can handle many matchups thanks to Shuckle ex in the early game and Vespiquen ex's 140 damage. The ability to discard a damaged or obsolete Pokémon makes its game plan particularly stable.
  • Magnezone / Oricorio / Miraidon ex
    Deck heavily represented in top decks, with Miraidon acting as a flexible finisher and strong sleep-counterplay.
  • Mega Sceptile ex / Pheromosa / Teal Mask Ogerpon ex
    S tier: tournament-winning deck (500+ players), with strong Bench pressure, Fragrant Forest to stabilize Grass Basics and Ogerpon to improve certain matchups. It is a very good for climbing to Masterball.
  • Mega Sceptile / Kartana / Chingling
    S tier: this deck is presented as the winner of a 500+ player tournament, with strong damage, stadium control, and several attack lines. The Grass stadium replaces Poké Ball in this version and gives the deck excellent consistency.
