Latias & Latios are a formidable pair from the Team Up expansion that has great synergy between their normal and GX attacks. Their Buster Purge move can dish out a massive 240 points of damage, though it causes them to discard 3 Energies. Thankfully, their Aero Unit GX attack allows them to retrieve these, and then some, in addition to preventing all damage taken during the opponent's next t
Belonging to the Ancient Origins expansion, Mega Ampharos EX is an extremely offensive-minded card in PTCG that is capable of creating one-hit-knock-out scenarios with its powerful attack Exavolt, all for the cost of one electric and 1DCE. While Exavolt might also deal 30 damage to Mega Ampharos EX if used to its maximum capability, it also guarantees damage of 170 to the opponent's active pokémon, as well as the promise of paralyzing
Decks need to contain a minimum of 60 cards, therefore even with 4 copies allowed per card, drawing one's best Pokemon could take a while. Instead, pick a small group of cards that work well with one another and build a deck around t

In the universe of Pokémon Trading Card Game, part of the Pokémon franchise, few can boast of the astounding abilities that Psychic pokémon are known to have. This type is commonly associated with the ones that belong to the elite echelons of the Pokémon world, as many legendary pokémon are usually found to have Psychic traits. These pokémon are great in a team and provide helpful assistance to either themselves or the other pokémon in the t
Although neither of its attacks does huge amounts of damage, Dark Alakazam from the Team Rocket Expansion is a card that requires greater intellect to use most effectively. It can teleport into the Bench with a blast that does moderate damage as well as granting a free swi
Versatile is its most powerful attack, which allows the player to use any pokémon attacks from another pokémon in play either belonging to the player or the opponent. Each attack would, however, require their necessary energy cost. Replace, on the other hand, allows the player to detach as many energy cards as he/she wishes to his/her other pokémon in any manner he/she desi
It also has the Poké-Power Flash Bite which allows the player to put 1 damage counter on the opponent’s pokémon every time Crobat G is switched to the bench. The second ability, Toxic Fang, poisons the defending pokémon while putting 2 damage counters on it in between turns. It also features a free retr
Dragonair and its evolutionary line always felt like a rare find and such an "endgame" Pokémon to acquire, especially in the early generations. So it makes sense that such an elusive Pokémon would adopt the pose of one of history's most elusive monsters: Nessie. This coupled with the dazzling arctic setting complete with a muted aurora borealis and great star work. This card felt like one that was especially loved by the artist and passion begets work worth hav
These deadly dragons were released as a Tag Team card during the Cosmic Eclipse expansion and boast traits appropriate for their Ultra Beast identities.

Dark Gyarados from the Team Rocket set is violence incarnate. Its Ice Beam attack does nice damage and can make a foe Paralyzed, but this card's true might is in its Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket Power.

Besides the powerful V and VMAX Pokemon cards that are becoming increasingly used in battles, there are still many other strong cards for a Fire-type deck. For example, take a look at a few from the Fusion Strike expansion that was released in November 2
This flame Pokemon's Continuous Fireball attack is as destructive as it sounds, able to dish out 50 and 100 damage attacks with ease; however, if loaded with more energies, it can deal even greater damage to scorch nearly any foe to as
Heat [Fire] Energy cards are special energies introduced in the Darkness Ablaze expansion that came out during the summer of 2020. In addition to giving a Pokemon one Fire-type energy, they also heal the selected Pokemon for 20 HP upon being attached to them. Another excellent one is the Burning Energy card, which can be re-attached to a Fire-type Pokemon after it is used up by an att
The Blacksmith Supporter card from the Flashfire expansion lets a trainer attach two energy cards from the discard pile directly onto a Pokemon. The Professor's Letter Item card from the BREAKthrough expansion is another useful one if low on fuel, as it lets the player search their deck for two energ
