Summary
Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket’sbattle mode has begun to heat up with the introduction of theLapras ex event. Players are quickly figuring out the meta, which began as mostlyMewtwo exandPikachu exdecks, and aresharing the best countersas they look to rack up wins for some (rather underwhelming) rewards.
One deck, which has been shared onReddit, that hasn’t had much time in the spotlight is an Aerodactyl deck has the potential to finish a game without knocking any opposition Pokemon out.
Aerodactyl Deck Could Be The New Meme Meta
Let’s get things clear straight off the bat: this deck isn’t likely to be super viable long-term as it relies on a lot of variables, but it’s a fun one nonetheless.
The main requirement for it to be successful is that players will need to face the newly-appearing Articuno ex deck. This deck features twoArticuno exas the onlyPokemonand is supplemented by 18 trainer cards, perfect for Aerodactyl.
Aerodactyl’s attack, Primal Wingbeat, sends the opponent’s active Pokemon straight back into their deck, as long as you flip a coin well, which is easier said than done in this game. Given that they only have two basic Pokemon in their deck, there’s a high likelihood that only one will be in play.
By flipping heads and successfully landing a Primal Wingbeat, the solitary Articuno will be sent back to the opposition’s deck, meaning they have no available active Pokemon, and thus, as thePokemon Trading Card Gamerules dictate, winning the game for Aerodactyl.
You see, of course, this deck has some drawbacks, mostly relying on facing a specific opposition deck, but if utilized correctly with some other strong supporting Pokemon, it could be a fun deck to meme your way through the competition.
