Learn the best way to use a Metagross Deck in the current Pokemon TCG meta and which cards work well in this archetype.
Metagross from Journey Together is a unique single-prize attacker. It can deal up to 280 damage with its move Conjoined Beams which can KO most Pokemon that aren’t Stage 2 Pokemon ex. However, there is a bit of opportunity cost regarding it as for the move to deal such damage both a Beldum and a Metang needs to be on the Bench. If it can be pulled off, this deck can be quite menacing to most decks.
