Kick Down(Tsareena)

Your opponent reveals a random card from their hand and shuffles it into their deck.

Strategy Guide

Auto-generated

Tsareena uses a coin-flip Three Kick Combo for up to 150 damage or the deterministic Kick Down to deal 50 damage and discard a random card from the opponent's hand, disrupting their strategy. The deck wins by combining Tsareena's hand disruption with grass-type bulk to outlast opponents.

Open by playing Bounsweet and using Poké Ball to find it as a Basic, then use Professor's Research and Rare Candy to assemble Tsareena as fast as possible through Steenee. Alolan Exeggutor sits on the Bench as a secondary attacker. Mid-game, choose Three Kick Combo against high-HP targets for spike damage — averaging 75 damage on 3 flips — or Kick Down to strip a key card from the opponent's hand. Use Erika and Pokémon Center Lady to heal and extend Tsareena's active turns. In the finishing stretch, Quick-Grow Extract provides additional support and Kartana applies supplementary pressure.

Damage Math

Any Active Pokémon (expected average, Three Kick Combo)

50 per heads × 1.5 expected heads (3 flips at 50%) = ~75 average

Three Kick Combo; maximum 150 on 3 heads, minimum 0 on 3 tails.

Strengths

Kick Down disrupts the opponent's hand every turn it is used, potentially removing their key evolution, trainer, or energy card.
Three Kick Combo has a maximum output of 150 damage for 1 grass energy, threatening one-shot KOs on most ex Pokémon on lucky flips.
Tsareena is a non-ex Stage 2; KOing it only scores 1 point, so the opponent must commit multiple KOs to reach 3 points.

Weaknesses

Three Kick Combo is completely coin-flip dependent — 0 heads deals 0 damage and wastes the turn entirely.Consistency
Tsareena requires a two-stage evolution line; without Rare Candy, assembling it takes 3 turns minimum.Tempo
The deck has only 8 tournament lists and a 44.7% win rate; optimal builds are not well established.Other

How to Play

Disrupt with Kick Down to Strand Key Cards

Kick Down deals 50 damage and forces the opponent to reveal a random hand card, then shuffles it into their deck. Used on key turns, this can remove an evolution, Rare Candy, or critical supporter before the opponent can play it. Pair Kick Down with Cyrus and Pokémon Communication to control the board while the opponent's hand shrinks.

Use Three Kick Combo for Spike Damage Turns

Against high-HP ex Pokémon, Three Kick Combo is Tsareena's best offensive option — it can deal up to 150 damage on 3 heads, securing a one-shot KO. Accept the variance and use this attack when you need a burst turn. Support with Erika or Pokémon Center Lady to heal damage taken from risky attack turns.

How to Beat This Deck

Apply Early Pressure Before Tsareena Evolves

Tsareena needs Bounsweet, Steenee, and ideally Rare Candy to arrive. Bounsweet is a fragile Basic that can be KO'd before evolution completes. Any deck that scores a KO in the first two turns denies the Kick Down disruption cycle. Fire-type attackers dealing weakness damage to Bounsweet and Steenee halt the Tsareena line fastest.

Ignore Coin Flips and Focus on Consistent Damage Racing

Three Kick Combo averages roughly 75 damage — below the KO threshold for most ex Pokémon. Consistent attackers that deal 100-120 every single turn trade better than Tsareena's variance-heavy offense. Toxapex and Serperior win 75% against Tsareena. A consistent attacker races past Three Kick Combo's average output while denying the glass-cannon upside.

Protect Against Kick Down with Low Hand Size

Kick Down targets a random card from the opponent's hand. Keeping a small hand — one or two cards — minimizes the impact of the discard and makes each Kick Down less likely to hit a critical piece. Play your hand aggressively on each turn to reduce the pool of cards that can be discarded before Tsareena attacks.
