Learn the best way to use a Marowak Deck in the current Pokemon TCG meta and which cards work well in this archetype.

Marowak from Stellar Crown has fantastic synergy with its pre-evolution Cubone. Its second move, Bone Vengeance, becomes stronger if any Cubone on your side of the playing field has taken damage. To get the most out of Marowak and deal a lot more damage, the Cubone from Pokemon 151 is used thanks to its ability, Cheering Bone, which gives any Marowak in play a 30-damage boost. This can only really be pulled off by skilled players, as a lot of things can go wrong in setting up Marowak and Cubone to deal enough damage.
