Learn the best way to use a Conkeldurr deck in the current Pokemon TCG meta and which cards work well in this archetype.
In the mainline games, Conkeldurr has the Guts ability, which gives it a power boost if it gets statused. That’s the inspiration behind the Conkeldurr from Twilight Masquerade. Its move, Gutsy Swing, usually has a high Energy cost of one Fighting Energy and three Colorless Energy. However, that requirement is completely waived if Conkeldurr has any Special Conditions.
Pokemon TCG Best Conkeldurr Deck Guide Overview
The strategy for Conkeldurr involves Poisoning it with Brute Bonnet so that it can spam Gutsy Swing for no Energy cost. Gutsy Swing already has a high base damage of 250, which can be further boosted to 290 with a Binding Mochi attached while Conkeldurr is Poisoned.
