Pokémon (19):
  • 1 Xurkitree SM10b (beatdown)
  • 1 Tapu Koko Prism (enable)
  • 2 Zapdos SM8a (beatdown)
  • 3 Jirachi SM8a (searches)
  • 4 Luxray S2 (beatdown)
  • 4 Luxio S2 (evolution)
  • 2 Shinx S2 (evolution)
  • 2 Oranguru S1 (draw)
Trainer (31):
  • 2 Boss's Order (control)
  • 4 Prof. Research (draw)
  • 4 Marnie (draw)
  • 3 Pokémon Communication (search)
  • 3 Evolution Incense (search)
  • 4 Electro Power (beatdown)
  • 4 Scoop Up Net (retrieval)
  • 2 Escape Board (retreat)
  • 4 Quick Ball (search)
  • 1 Thunder Mountain (enable)
Energy (10):
  • 6 Lightning Energy
  • 4 Speed Energy

STRATEGY:


Start with Jirachi to search out needed trainer cards and make sure to have Oranguru on the bench to trade Luxio with the top card of the deck to cheat evolution mechanics on the next turn with Top Entry. The deck is in essence the spiritual successor of Zapdos decks since it focuses on low cost attackers such as Luxray and Zapdos himself in addition to Xurkitree to knock out the defender in two hits with some assistance from Electro Power.
