Water Box deck, maybe Araquanid isn’t the best play here, I’m testing various other Pokémon in place of it as well. For now though, Manaphy gets knocked out, use Basculegion to hit for 110 on whatever you please with Lana’s support. Then, finish it off with Chien-Pao.
This deck aims to draw first blood as fast as possible. Using Misty to ramp either Articuno or Lapras to gain board presence; Mega Sharpdo EX Wallace to OTK or ramp your Articuno to cash out damage, Lapras for low-risk mid-reward Oricorio counter attacker, or Chien-Pao to shut down telegraphed set-up. Do not put Pokemon into play unless you're actively ramping or attacking with them, instead swap out your basic Pokemon that isn't immediately useful via Area-Zero to get your combo pieces.
Hey I've been experimenting with this really fast water deck and it's been a ton of fun!! The gameplan is simple : put as much pressure as soon as possible while being able to pivot thanks to the free retreat, and then finishing things up with either Chien-Pao or Cyrus.
