The main feature of this deck is that it only uses a single Pokemon:
Poke Ball For Guaranteed Search
Since this is a
Victory Depends On Coin Toss In the End
Due to the nature of this deck, its success rate heavily relies on how many points Zapdos ex can secure with its second attack “Thundering Hurricane”. Coin toss results may allow you to defeat a tougher deck or lose to an easier one, so sometimes you’ll need to accept the variance.
Improving Win Rates Wwith Strategic Play
Although it ultimately depends on coin tosses, you can improve your win rate with strategic play. Think about how to use Attack No.2 as frequently as possible and how to deal damage in advance to reduce the number of heads needed to win.

Pikachu ex Deck Recipe and StrategyZapdos ex Deck Strategy
- Chip Away with Attack No.1 While Drawing a Second Zapdos ex
- Place a Second Zapdos ex on the Bench
- Continuously Use Attack No.2
In the early game, use “Peck,” to gradually wear down the opponent while using cards like Poke Ball or Professor's Research to quickly find a second Zapdos ex.
This deck lacks Energy Acceleration, so setting up "Thundering Hurricane" takes at least three turns. Since attaching Energy to the Active Zapdos ex could lead to it getting KO'd before using his second attack, try to focus Energy attachment on the Bench Zapdos ex whenever possible.
Since getting Thundering Hurricane available takes time, use Sabrina to pull a Pokemon without Energy to the Active Spot, or play Red Card to reduce the opponent's hand size, buying you time. Be sure to check the opponent's hand size and their last played cards before using these cards to maximize effectiveness.
