Strategies
Alolan Exeggutor and Alolan Marowak are the strongest attacker of the Tropical Takedown theme deck. Both pokemon can have maximum damage up to 120 if you have fulfilled the required conditions. So, you can choose to go with either of them depending on the cards in your hand.
Lets start with Alolan Exeggutor. In order to get maximum damage, you need to have five different energy cards in your discard pile which are Grass, Fighting, Water, Psychic and Darkness Energy cards. Since Tropical Shake Attack does 20 more damage for each different energy cards in your discard pile. There are a few tricks to put those energy cards in the discard pile.
Before you put the energy cards in the discards pile, you need to have required energy cards in your hand. This can be done by using Lady Supporter Card to choose four different energy cards from your deck and put it into your hand or Oricorio's Ability Vital Dance which allows you to takes two energy cards the moment you put that pokemon on the bench.
Once you have all five different energy cards in your hand, you can start to put those cards in the discard pile. One of the way you can do is that attach any different energy to any pokemon and retreat it. The higher the retreat cost the pokemon have, the more energy you can put in the discard pile.
Another way is to use cards that allow you to discard cards. There are two cards which allow you to discard two energy cards which are Ultra Ball and Sophocles.
Getting maximum damage from Alolan Marowak is not as complicated as Alolan Exeggutor. All you need is five Alolan Pokemon on your bench and it doesn't matter which it is same or different pokemon as long as the pokemon has Alolan in its name. Here are the Alolan pokemon in this deck: Alolan Sandshrew, Alolan Rattata and Alolan Exegguotor.

I like the concept of your blog, no much people talk about theme decks and its one of my prefered things on PTCGO
ReplyDeleteI would like to add a few thins
Alolan Rattata and Raticates
1- Had Alolan Rattata on the bench is very useful, if one of your pokemon is KO, you can put Alolan Rattata into active to had a free retreat cost in your turn, you only had to worry against pokemon like Garchomp, Solgalero, Oricorio, Piplup and pokemons who are ables to do bench damage but if your opponent doesnt have any pokemon with that kind of attacks, then you can have Alolan Rattata on your bench without any problem, this also save you escape board and this could help in a future turn to retreat heavy retreat cost pokemon with to much damage, like Alolan Exeggutor or Alolan Raticate
2- Alolan Raticates the morre important of both is the one with Evil Order as an strategie to perfectly set up just with 2 energies cost attack, you can take any card of your deck in order to set up, if you start the game with Alolan Rattata and some way to get Alolan Raticate (Evil Order) I will recommend go in that direction and start charging Alolan Ratticate its a great way to start, the with Evil order you can take Lady, Ultraballs and Sophocles to being able to had full power Alolan Exeggutor in a very low amount of turns, also the second attacks it can also generate a good amount of damage, 60 as base and maximum of 120 with coinflips, the another Raticate is a good attacker as well being able to hit 60 without any energie, only a tool equiped and even if the equiped card is blow out with field blower, if you use the Alolan Rattata free retreat cost strategie I talk before, you can had a second tool to keep using Alolan Ratticate
Hope this info could help someone, I had a bunch more of tips about this I maybe will share them later, keep with your blog :)
Thanks for sharing what I missed out in this post. Indeed, Alolan Raticate with Evil Order has very useful effect which allows your to search a number of cards based on your number of Benched Pokemon. So, if you have two benched Pokemon, you can search two cards from your deck add it to your hand.
DeleteI really like your creative idea of drawing Lady, Ultra ball and Sophocles by taking advantage of Evil Order effect. This way, we can discard different types of energy as soon as possible in the discard pile to maximize Alolan Exeggutor.
Thanks for your complement also. It's always great to found out that someone who enjoys playing Theme Deck as much as I do:D .
