Strategy 1: Early Game Jynx
Early Game Jynx | ||
---|---|---|
Jynx becomes difficult to ignore especially against Energy intensive Pokemon like Articuno ex. If a Pokemon has three Energy on it, Jynx's Psychic will do an enormous 90 damage for only two Energy. Prioritize getting two Energy on Jynx if Mewtwo is not in the game yet.
Strategy 2: Late Game Mewtwo ex
Mewtwo ex should serve as a late game sweeper, clearing damaged and low HP Pokemon. Use Psychic Sphere where necessary so that you don't always have to discard Energy with Psydrive.
