Here is how you can steamroll your opponents by building the best Rampardos deck for competitive battles in Pokemon TCG Pocket.
Rampardos is a very strong card to use. It is energy-efficient and can deal high damage without too much setup. The only drawback is the associated recoil damage. Paired with various other Fighting-type cards, Rampardos can take out the entire enemy team in quick succession, before they get their setup rolling.
Moreover, Rampardos itself is not a very rare card to obtain (compared to other cards) so the deck’s cost to obtain is also quite less compared to other Ex decks. Here is a guide on the best Rampardos deck for Pokemon TCG Pocket.
Decklist For Rampardos Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket
Here are all the cards you will want to have in an ideal Rampardos-centric deck:
- 2x Cranidos
- 2x Rampardos
- 1x Marshadow
- 2x Riolu
- 2x Lucario
- 1x Sudowoodo
- 1x Cyrus
- 1x Sabrina
- 2x Skull Fossil
- 2x Pokemon Communication
- 2x Poke Ball
- 2x Professor’s Research
Key Cards For Rampardos Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket
Lucario can boost your active Fighting type Pokemon’s damage by 20. This can be crucial in getting the critical knock-out. Additionally, cards like Pokemon Communication and Poke Ball let you get the proper hand to start your combos.
Additionally, Marshadow’s Revenge gets boosted if Rampardos gets knocked out. These cards working in unison have a very good energy-damage ratio, making them very energy efficient.
Basic Combos and How To Use
This deck is quite straightforward and simple, and barely requires any setup. This makes it very simple to use for beginners as well. Use the Skull Fossil to evolve into Cranidos and then Rampardos. Additionally, you should have Lucario in the backrow to buff your active Pokemon’s damage.
If the opponent is using multiple Ex cards, Sudowoodo could also be detrimental to their side. You should use Pokemon Communication and Poke Ball cards to get the right cards in your hand to start off your plays. Professors’ Research is just a great card to use all around.
Meanwhile, Cyrus and Sabrina can help disrupt your opponent’s plays and also get some crucial knockouts if used at the right moment.
Counters To Rampardos Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket
This is a pure Fighting type deck. Naturally, it will be weakest against Grass-type decks. Firstly, we have Exeggutor Ex, who can be devastating against Fighting decks in general. This deck will also not be too different in this regard, unless your opponent is fairly unlucky.
Additionally, you should also note that, despite not having many counter decks at the moment, you can lose the match by sheer luck as well. This is because the deck is reliant on a good start (including a way to get out Rampardos). If this fails (even with Pokemon Communication, Professor’s Research and Poke Ball), the deck would not last a long time.
