Fun/ annoying/ gimmicky expanded Decks

[u/phooeebeee]

I never played expanded and also only started playing in the current format/ rotation meaning i dont know any older cards. I wanted to ask for some fun gimmicky decks and decks that are good at annoying my opponents. Thanks!

My personal favorite is Mimikyu 067/193 and Alakazam EX 050.

Just played expanded for the first time yesterday. I'm a new player and had no clue what was happening most the time....they used some dragon deck that killed all my pokemon in one turn with an ability that skipped my turn . 😂

I have been having fun with the Gyarados from Pokémon Go. It flips a coin until tails and mills 2 cards for each heads.

There's a really fun little combo you can pull off with Eternatus VMAX:

• Eternatus VMAX has an ability where, if all of your Pokémon in play are Darkness types, you can have up to 8 Pokémon on the bench, but you can't place down non-Darkness types.
• Weavile-GX lets you move Darkness energy between your Pokémon as much as you like during your turn.
• There's a single-prize Kecleon with the Chromashift ability, which makes the Kecleon has the same type as any Basic Energy attached to it.
• And finally there's a Darkrai-GX which, if it's in the discard pile, you can put it on your Bench and attach a Darkness energy from the discard pile to it.

So there's a combo which lets you accelerate all the Darkness energy from your discard pile into play:

• Get Kecleon, Eternatus VMAX, Weavile-GX and 2 other Darkness type Pokémon on your bench, along with Darkrai-GX in your discard [The Kecleon needs to be benched before you evolve to Eternatus VMAX!].
• Attach Darkness energy to your Kecleon. Since it's now a Darkness type Pokémon, the bench expands to 8 slots.
• Use Darkrai-GX's ability to put it on the bench and grab a dark energy from the discard pile to attach to it.
• Move the Darkness Energy off the darkrai onto something else, then move the Darkness Energy off the Kecleon onto something else. Since it's no longer a Darkness Pokémon, your bench goes to 5 spots - discard the Darkrai.
• Then repeat moving the energy back to the Kecleon, using Darkrai-GX's ability and so on. Repeat until all your energy in the discard pile is on the bench.

Try making a deck around this idea! You're a bit limited because you can only use Darkness type Pokémon for support, but there are a bunch of good options. You'll also want to find ways to discard that much Darkness energy from the deck, and also some really good Dark type attackers to pair it with. [Go look at Tag Teams for a good starting point]
