So let’s take a look at how a deck focusing on Galarian Cursola can be used in the current meta. 

Pokemon TCG Pocket Best Galarian Cursola Deck Guide Overview

Galarian Cursola is meant to deter direct attacks thanks to its ability, Perish Body. This ability gives you a chance to KO the opponent’s Active Pokemon if it deals enough damage to KO Cursola. This requires a coin flip to go in your favor, but since it has the chance to KO a setup Pokemon, the risk is worth taking.
