Why

Greninja ex Deck’s core Pokémon are weak to lightning. That explains part of the spread above — but the percentages are measured from recorded games, so a deck can beat it without ever exploiting the type chart.

  • Silvally Deck0.1% of the meta63%T3

How this is measured

Each percentage comes from games recorded between the two archetypes in competitive tournaments, decayed by age with a 35-day half-life so the numbers track the current meta. A pairing appears only once it has at least two tournaments of evidence, and rates are capped at 25–75% to stop a thin sample reading as a hard counter. Measured 3 August 2026.
