Giovanni's Scheme gives an extra 20, enough to hit that 190 and knock out most non-mega guys.

There's also a few fighting bench-sitters that increase damage, but I don't know that using those would be very good as you'd need several to hit 210 regularly and they are just Lysandre targets.
THERE it is. Thanks!

Sorry guess I shouldn't have assumed. There is a tool card called Power Memory from Fates Collide where you can attach it to Zygarde EX and do 200 damage, not including strong energy, Regirocks, Giovanni's etc. It requires you to discard 3 energy, but Carbink Break significantly helps to offset that.

Wow, I didn't even know this card existed. This thing is just hulk smashing all over the place.

I lost to a Zygarde EX deck again last night. I think this is a card that slipped by all of us. I'm not saying it's BDIF (best deck in format), but it's probably at least a tier two deck when paired with Carbink.

You guys are missing the tool "power memories", 3 energy hits for 200 and discard all energies.

what website??

zygarde with weavile is an absolutely nutty deck. the combination of power memory and being able to swap for float stone is good

I might be reading into your comment too much but since you said it, I am trying to figure it out... MATHS!

Zygarde EX has 3 attacks

- Land's Pulse [F] 20 + 20 if Stadium
- With 1 Strong Energy + 1 FF Belt => 70 max

- Cell Storm [FC] 60
- With 2 Strong Energy + FF Belt => 110 max

- Land's Wrath [FFC] 100
- With 3 Strong Energy + FF Belt => 170 max

It would definitely be OHKOing many 'mons but I can't see it hitting that 180+ mark that would tip the scales. Are there any cards I'm missing in this equation that would be better?

Attach Power Memory, 200 Damange, +two strong energy = 240 Damage. You can go so far as to attach 3 strong energy for 260 damage
