Learn the best way to use a Keldeo ex Deck in the current Pokemon TCG meta and which cards work well in this archetype.
Keldeo ex from the White Flare expansion has decent synergy with Samurott from the same set. Its move Gale Thrust does a 120 damage on the turn it switches in the Active Spot, which it can do repeatedly with the help of Samurott’s ability. Torrential Whirlpool lets you switch out your Active Pokemon for one on your Bench once per turn. By using multiple Keldeo ex, you can guarantee 120 damage each time.
Pokemon TCG Best Keldeo Ex Deck Guide Overview
The play is to use Samurott’s ability Torrential Whirlpool to use multiple Keldeo ex to spam Gale Thrust over and over again. As Torrential Whirlpool forces the opponent to switch their Active Pokemon as well, you can use Boss’s Orders or Counter Catcher to switch in a favorable matchup.
