Learn the best way to use a Venomoth Deck in the current Pokemon TCG meta and which cards work well in this archetype.

Venomoth is an interesting card to use in the current Pokemon TCG landscape. While it doesn’t have a high damage output, its main goal isn’t to deal damage to its opponents. Thanks to its first move Perplexing Powder, it can confuse the opponent’s Active Pokemon and prevent Item usage from their hand. With the right support, Venomoth can whittle down most opponents over some time.
