Key Moves & Abilities
AbilitySwift Shot(Inteleon)
Once during your turn, when you play this Pokémon from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokémon, you may do 30 damage to your opponent's Active Pokémon.
Aqua Edge(Inteleon)
70Strategy Guide
Auto-generatedInteleon uses its Swift Shot ability to accumulate 30-damage chip shots every time it evolves, then finishes with Aqua Edge for 70 damage to score 1 point per knockout on regular Pokemon. The win condition is spreading passive damage across the opponent's bench while Aqua Edge cleans up targets that Swift Shot has already weakened.
You open with Poké Ball to find Sobble, then bench Drizzile and Inteleon lines in parallel to maximize Swift Shot triggers. Each evolution of Inteleon from Drizzile fires an immediate 30 damage to the opponent's Active Pokemon — stacking two Inteleon evolutions means 60 chip damage before a single attack. Rocky Helmet adds additional passive damage when the opponent swings into you. Aqua Edge at 70 damage finishes anything that Swift Shot has softened. Pyukumuku and Parasol Lady provide stall and healing to survive long enough to chain multiple knockout turns.
Damage Math
Opponent's Active Pokemon — double Swift Shot evolution chain
Swift Shot 30 + Swift Shot 30 = 60 chip before attacking
Both Inteleon copies trigger on evolution, making it possible to deal 60 passive damage in the same turn you complete the line.
Rocky Helmet retaliation
Rocky Helmet triggers each time opponent attacks into your Active Inteleon
Pairs with Parasol Lady heal to keep Inteleon alive while accumulating Rocky Helmet damage.
Strengths
- Swift Shot deals 30 damage on evolution without spending an attack, letting you chip the opponent's Active while still developing your board.
- Rocky Helmet punishes aggressive physical attackers, adding passive damage every time Inteleon is attacked and increasing your effective damage output.
- Pyukumuku and Parasol Lady extend Inteleon's lifespan against attrition decks, making the 150 HP Stage 2 harder to remove in one exchange.
Weaknesses
- Inteleon is a Stage 2 that requires Sobble and Drizzile to be drawn naturally after Poké Ball finds Sobble — a slow and fragile evolution chain.Consistency
- Mega Pinsir ex, Teal Mask Ogerpon ex, and Garchomp ex all hit at 25-28% win rates — high single-hit damage bypasses the chip accumulation plan entirely.Matchup
- 70-damage Aqua Edge is below the one-shot threshold for most ex Pokemon at 150+ HP, meaning you often need multiple turns to score 2 points on an ex attacker.Tempo
How to Play
Stack Swift Shot Before Attacking
Evolve both Inteleon copies on the same turn whenever possible to land 60 chip damage before using Aqua Edge. Against 100-HP Pokemon, 60 chip plus 70 Aqua Edge totals 130 — enough to knock out many non-ex targets in a single attack phase. Use Professor's Research and Copycat to find Drizzile and Inteleon from natural draw after Poké Ball locates Sobble.

Convert Rocky Helmet Pressure into Knockouts
Equip Rocky Helmet to your Active Inteleon and let the opponent attack into you. Parasol Lady heals the resulting damage while Rocky Helmet chips the opponent's attacker each exchange. This converts defensive turns into offensive progress — any attacker that swings twice into Rocky Helmet accumulates enough damage for Aqua Edge to finish it.

Disrupt the Opponent's Timing with Cyrus
Cyrus forces the opponent's Active Pokemon to the bench at a moment when you've already spent two turns charging Aqua Edge. The new Active Pokemon may not be ready to attack, giving you a free knockout turn. Field Blower removes opponent tools that extend the survivability of their attacker.

How to Beat This Deck
One-Shot Inteleon Before Swift Shot Fires
Inteleon evolves from Drizzile, giving you a window where Drizzile is in play with lower HP than the final form. Hit Drizzile before it evolves to cancel Swift Shot entirely. Any attacker dealing 80 or more damage removes Drizzile in one shot, preventing the evolution trigger and forcing the opponent to replay the line from hand.
Use Pokémon with High HP to Absorb Multiple Aqua Edges
Aqua Edge deals 70 damage — not enough to one-shot ex Pokemon or Mega ex Pokemon. Bring out an ex attacker with 150+ HP as your primary Active target. Even after two Swift Shot triggers (60 chip) plus one Aqua Edge (70), an ex Pokemon at 150 HP survives. You score 2 points when you KO Inteleon while absorbing only 1-point swing potential back.
Remove Rocky Helmet with Field Blower
Rocky Helmet is Inteleon's primary source of passive damage against aggressive decks. Running your own Field Blower discards Rocky Helmet before it accumulates meaningful chip damage, stripping the defensive-attrition angle from the Inteleon deck and forcing it to rely solely on 70-damage Aqua Edge.
