Best Venusaur Deck Build In Pokemon TCG Pocket, Explained
Venusaur ex is a great card to build Grass Type decks around, due to its unique strengths – to heal itself as well as dealing significant damage to opponents. For just four Energies attached, Venusaur ex can use Giant Bloom to deal 100 damage per turn, as well as heal 30 hp per turn from Venusaur, helping to extend its life and therefore remain played in the Active spot for longer.
With assistance from additional Trainers/Items/Supporters such as Erika and Potion, you can add additional healing onto Venusaur’s self-heal to make this even more impactful each turn. Lastly, Petilil and Lilligant are a great secondary Pokemon choice to synergize with Venusaur, due to Lilligant’s Leaf Supply move, which can attach additional Energies onto benched Pokemon each turn, helping to get Venusaur set up and ready to use Giant Bloom as soon as possible.
In the case that you don’t have access to Petilil and Lilligant, or you’d like to try out an alternate option, Exeggcute, and Exeggutor ex can also work brilliantly as replacements. While they won’t help feed energy to Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, and Venusaur ex through their abilities, Exeggutor ex only needs just one Energy to use its Tropical Swing move, dealing 40 damage per turn, as well as the chance to deal an additional 40 damage with a coin flip, for a possible total of 80 damage per turn. Being so low-cost on energy enables you to save more energies for Venusaur ex, while Exeggutor ex deals with active threats, holding off enough until you can get Venusaur in play.
