Lilligant from the Black Bolt expansion is a Special Condition-inflicting machine. Its move Bemusing Aroma can either leave the Defending Pokemon Paralyzed and Poisoned or Confused, depending on which way the coin flip lands. This makes Bemusing Aroma a useful coin flip move regardless of the result. Paired with Amoonguss from the same expansion as well as some other passive damage dealers, Lilligant can be quite a threat.

Pokemon TCG Best Lilligant Deck Guide Overview

The plan is to use Lilligant’s Bemusing Aroma in conjunction with Amoonguss’ Dangerous Reaction. The former will inflict a Special Condition, which will power up Dangerous Reaction to a 150-damage move. Additional help comes from Froslass and Munkidori to chip away at the opponent.

Something to consider while using this deck

  • Gravity Gemstone is a Tool meant to discourage the opponent’s Active Pokemon from switching out, even after getting a Special Condition inflicted on it.
  • As this deck relies on a lot of Grass-type Pokemon and Energy, the Item Bug Catching Set is a useful one to have.
