Rampardos can deal 130 damage at just one energy. However, you need to use Skull Fossil and Rare Candy to quickly get this Pokemon out on the field. Meanwhile, Type: Null is a basic Pokemon, which you will always start out with. Using cards like Professor’s Research and Gladion, you aim to get Silvally into your hand.

Then you can hit your opponent every turn with 100 damage, provided you keep using Supporter cards. This is one of the few S-ranked decks in the current meta.

Best Silvally-Rampardos Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket: Strategy

Here are somethings to keep in mind while playing this deck:

  • The Rampardos route of attacking is quite straightforward: just attack. One energy cost for 130 damage is devastating against any deck. You will, of course, need to quickly start this combo with the help of cards like Rare Candy and Skull Fossil.
  • Meanwhile, The Type: Null system is slightly more complex. You will need to plan out your attacks in advance so that you can use Supporter cards every turn. This will allow Silvally to attack consistently with 100 damage, at low energy costs.
  • Additionally, Guzma can be used to interrupt your enemy plays involving Pokemon Tools.
  • Pokemon Center Lady is there to provide healing and also let Silvally deal 100 damage. Moreover, the current meta is seeing the usage of Poison Barb, so this card can dispel that Status as well.

Best Matchups For This Silvally-Rampardos Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket

This deck works well against slow-to-start decks, like Giratina-Darkrai, which take some turns to start attacking. If you are lucky, you can get Rampardos or Silvally out by then and start hitting them for over 100 damage each turn.

Oricorio decks also would not be able to stall against this deck, as you do not use any ex cards. Charizard decks will also be slower than this deck most of the time.

Counters To This Silvally-Rampardos Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket

If the opponent uses cards like Rampardos as well, and gets them out faster than you, then you will likely struggle to make a comeback. Moreover, this deck relies heavily on Supporter cards for Silvally.

So, if Gengar ex shuts down all Supporter cards, more than half your deck becomes paralyzed. Fortunately, Gengar doesn’t see much ranked usage, so you should be fine. Moreover, Rampardos is weak to Grass-type Pokemon, and Silvally is weak to Fighting-type moves. So, be careful against these match-ups.
