Strengths

  • Full-Mouth Manner heals 20 damage every turn Snorlax ex is active, making it extremely difficult to KO through gradual damage.
  • Indeedee ex provides a secondary ex attacker worth 2 points, threatening two KO vectors that opponents must address.
  • Heavy Helmet punishes the opponent for attacking Snorlax ex, discouraging direct hits and buying more healing turns.

Weaknesses

  • Snorlax ex is an ex — one KO scores the opponent 2 points and nearly or completely wins the game for them.ex KO
  • Flop-Down Punch leaves Snorlax ex Asleep, forcing a coin flip to be able to attack the following turn.Other
  • Snorlax ex's retreat cost of 4 makes switching it out very costly; it is largely locked in the active spot once placed.Other
  • Only 12 tournament samples mean win-rate and matchup data is limited; deck optimization is still early-stage.Other

Key Moves & Abilities

AbilityFull-Mouth Manner(Snorlax ex)

At the end of your turn, if this Pokémon is in the Active Spot, heal 20 damage from it.

This Pokémon is now Asleep.

Strategy Guide

Auto-generated

Snorlax ex tanks damage with a 160-HP body that heals 20 per turn through Full-Mouth Manner, then threatens 130 damage with Flop-Down Punch at the cost of falling Asleep. The win condition is outlasting the opponent through sustained healing and attrition while Indeedee ex provides a secondary threat.

Open by deploying Snorlax ex with Poké Ball as the anchor attacker, then load tools and supporters to maximize its staying power. Full-Mouth Manner heals 20 damage at the end of each turn Snorlax ex is in the active spot, meaning you recover up to 20 HP per round as long as it stays active. Pokémon Center Lady and Lucky Ice Pop stack onto that passive healing. Flop-Down Punch hits for 130 but leaves Snorlax ex Asleep — Heavy Helmet and the sleep mechanic together make it costly to attack into. Indeedee ex on the bench provides a 2-point threat that draws opponents' attention away from Snorlax ex.

Damage Math

Net effective HP with healing

160 HP base + 20 healed per turn from Full-Mouth Manner = effectively higher damage threshold over multiple turns

Stacking Pokémon Center Lady on top of passive healing extends Snorlax ex's survivability significantly

How to Play

Stack Healing to Deny the KO

Full-Mouth Manner heals 20 automatically each turn. Add Pokémon Center Lady for burst healing and Lucky Ice Pop to prevent specific damage. Stack these so opponents must deal far more than 160 damage across all their turns to KO Snorlax ex. Cyrus denies opponent energy attachment, buying extra healing turns.

Threaten Two Vectors with Indeedee ex

Teal Mask Ogerpon ex and Indeedee ex bench alongside Snorlax ex to create threats the opponent cannot ignore. If the opponent focuses all resources on Snorlax ex, Indeedee ex can attack fresh. Starting Plains supports the board setup. Heavy Helmet makes attacking into Snorlax ex painful even if opponents try to bypass Indeedee ex.

How to Beat This Deck

Burst Snorlax ex Down in One or Two Hits

Full-Mouth Manner only works as long as Snorlax ex survives. Decks that can deal 130+ damage in one hit bypass the 20-per-turn healing by condensing the damage into fewer turns. Mega ex attacks that one-shot Snorlax ex deny the healing advantage entirely, scoring 2 points before it can recover.

Use Decks with Colorless Weakness or High Damage

Mega Charizard Y ex, Bellibolt ex, and Mega Lopunny ex sit at favorable matchup percentages against Snorlax ex. High-damage fire or fighting attacks can overcome the healing threshold. Decks that deal 160+ damage in a single hit effectively ignore the Full-Mouth Manner benefit entirely.

Exploit the Sleep Lock with Aggression

Flop-Down Punch leaves Snorlax ex Asleep. When Asleep, it cannot attack unless the coin flip resolves in its favor. Use this window to load your own attacker and strike for maximum damage while Snorlax ex is unable to respond. Consecutive Punch turns where the sleep flip fails are often game-ending.

Common Substitutions

Secondary attacker

  • Indeedee ex:Provides a second ex threat that scores 2 points on KO; core to the top build
  • Teal Mask Ogerpon ex:Included in the top build as an additional colorless-type threat on the bench
