Notes & Combos

We're back with a 3rd season in a row of hitting MB with snorlax in our deck.

My keys to this season is overwhelming the 110-120 dmg meta with 140 health pool. Snorlax + Magnezone are frustrating for Buzz/Guzz/Sol/Silv/Blace etc. to kill.

The 2nd pokecenter lady and the X-speed are my 2 tech cards that you can interchange with anything (2nd ori, illma, mars, cape etc. depending on what you are seeing)

Do not try to use Ori this season as a brawler like Season 2 vs Ex. Ori is more of a tech card to buy time or force an opponent to swap to a non-ex. Your goal in most matches are to kill everything other than the opponent's ex cards. Get 1-2 prizes early with snorlax out front and then end the game by forcing your opponent to bring their last non-ex out to try and kill ori and kill that with your bench.

Matchups

Vs Ramp/Silv -Gget a magnezone online in time to kill a silvary, have a snorlax on bench with at least 1 energy for when magnezone then dies to rampardos, snoralx kills ramp in 1 shot. If these exchange happens you will usually win. You will usually have to sacrifice your starting basic so don't develope it unless you think you can get a kill on a null-zone with an early berry.

Vs Solgaleo Kill Shiinotics. This can happen easily as most people will keep them in front as they build for solgaleo on bench. You want to always start with snorlax here and get an early kill on a basic. Late game you will sit ori out front and force them to bring another shiintoc in. Once you've killed both you've won as they don't run any mining helmets or double sabrina etc. Again, you are not trying to force kill a solgaleo although you can if you have magnezone and cyrus and a 1 prize coin. This was my easiest matchup.

Vs Buzz Buzz players will always be aggressive early with their basics which are extremely easy to kill if you pull berry. The end game is sitting ori outfront and forcing them to bring a celetsteel in and then you kill it with magnezone. Most matches I kill 2 basics with a snorlax before the snorlax dies. Top off your bench HP with pokecenter ladies if they were damaged by pheromosa to prevent cyrus pulling. Magnezone can kill a caped buzz even if they erika it, so you can go for a forced buzz kill if you have a cryus as magnezone will survie the first 120 dmg hit.

Vs other electric/ori decks I think I was about 95% win rate here, most people running ori/silv/zez type combos just can't deal with the 140 hp spam
