Lucario ex Deck - Pros / Cons

Raise Lucario ex on the Bench
Aim for a Double Knockout with Cyrus
Struggles Against One-Hit KO Opponents

Raise Lucario ex on the Bench

Since Lucario ex lacks Energy Acceleration methods, the optimal strategy is to raise it on the Bench before switching it to the Active Spot. Its base damage isn’t particularly high, so combining it with durable Pokemon that can absorb damage while weakening opponents is ideal.

Aim for a Double Knockout with Cyrus

Once Lucario ex is active, you can use Cyrus to simultaneously Knock Out both a Bench Pokemon and an Active Pokemon. To counter high-HP Pokemon, pairing Lucario ex with a Pokemon capable of executing a Bench Attack is highly effective.

Struggles Against One-Hit KO Opponents

Lucario ex typically requires two turns of attacking to deliver consistent results. As such, opponents capable of landing a One-Hit KO are particularly challenging. To mitigate this, prioritize equipping Lucario ex with Giant Cape for added survivability.
