It's good to mention (because a lot of people don't realise) that all the doubled energies count towards attacks like Psychic, so your pokemon will essentially take double additional damage from Psychic if you have Serperior active. A Celebi with 3 doubled energy (not uncommon at all) dies to one hit from a Jynx
@@sethian7073honestly, running a Jynx over Mew EX in Mewtwo EX Decks is probably the play. It offers an efficient one shot since people will put way too much Energy on Celebi, naturally, and isn't absolutely, utterly useless vs Pikachu EX.
I would swap out the Exeggutor EX for Dhelmise. 90 Damage for 2 Energy after Serperior on a Basic is pretty darn good. The regular Mythical Island Exeggutor is the main answer for mirror matches
I think Exeggutor ex's 160 hp is the consideration here because you want to stall as long as u can for the serperior and celebi, plus hefty amount of health make the erika play more effective
@@Respecta1512 Yeah understandable. But with only one Exeggcute, running both EX and regular means you start with one useless card regardless. For stalling, I am looking at Druddigon. 100 HP Basic, with Rough Skin equivalent to 2 free Giovanni for each hit it takes as Active. 2 Retreat Cost can be managed via X Speed or Leaf Attacks that cannot deal 100 HP in two turns (140-160 if factoring Potion and Blue) will be very cost prohibitive, which forces foes to Sabrina you out. This also means that benched Druddigon can help deter (somewhat, as I hypothesize) opposing Sabrina plays. That 40 HP of damage means one less head to land (with or without a Giovanni)
@@mattishidayeo the most effective Arcanine+Charizard deck also runs double arcanine ex too with only one growlithe, the consistency for the second main dmg dealer that matters, if u run only one copy of each u would find a situation where you have none of those card top deck, I would take the trade-off of having 1 useless cards than having none of the cards show up Depending on which stage u draw the Exeggutor, u could choose if the ex is on time for early aggro, or its already late into the game that the new a1 card would be more relevant

@@Respecta1512 I see. Thanks for the advice!
gonna run this without exeggcute cuz its ugly af and i cant have no uglies in my deck 😂
you sound like Ruby from pokemon manga.
that's hilarious
What if Exeggcute thinks you're ugly and is happy you're not running it? It has cute in the name too.
@@ChrrolloDI That could very well be the case haha
