Strategy Guide

Auto-generated

Mega Audino ex wins by outlasting the opponent through repeated 30-HP heals on every Pokemon whenever Heartfelt Shine fires, making each 2-point KO extremely difficult to achieve. Brambleghast applies passive spread pressure while Mega Audino ex soaks hits and resets HP totals.

Open with Mega Audino ex in the active spot — as a Basic it is immediately available — and use Poké Ball to secure Bramblin for the bench. Professor's Research and Copycat build toward the Brambleghast evolution while you attach Energy to Mega Audino ex. Mid-game, Heartfelt Shine at three Colorless Energy hits for 90 and heals 30 from every ally, erasing chip damage and demanding that your opponent deal 180 HP worth of net damage. Brambleghast provides supplemental pressure, and Starting Plains or Area Zero adjusts the stadium for tactical advantage. Pokémon Center Lady and Giant Cape add a second healing layer for the final turns.

Chain Heartfelt Shine every turn to heal 30 from all your Pokemon, keeping Mega Audino ex above KO thresholds. Layer Giant Cape for extra HP buffer and Pokémon Center Lady for burst healing in the same turn. Your goal is to force the opponent to deal 180+ net damage before they can claim the game-ending 3-point KO.

Apply Pressure with Brambleghast

Evolve Bramblin into Brambleghast on the bench as a secondary attacker. Brambleghast contributes damage output or serves as an active pivot while Mega Audino ex heals. Ilima helps draw into Brambleghast after Bramblin is benched via Poké Ball. Starting Plains shifts stadium control to your favor, and Cyrus redirects damage in tight exchanges.

How to Beat This Deck

Burst Past 180 HP in One Attack

Healing only matters if you cannot one-shot Mega Audino ex. High-burst attackers that deal 180+ damage in a single hit bypass Heartfelt Shine's healing window entirely. Hitting for enough to KO in one shot is the most reliable way to claim those 3 points before the healing engine can activate.

Use Cyrus to Redirect Mega Audino ex Attacks

Cyrus forces Mega Audino ex to target a different Pokemon rather than attack freely. If Mega Audino ex is redirected to a bench Pokemon it cannot one-shot, you deny its attack turn while potentially keeping your own attackers healthy. This buys time to set up a burst attacker or deny Energy attachment.

CountersCyrus
