Why this deck wins
Core cards
Matchups
Dragapult ex
Psychic Embrace charges Gardevoir ex fast enough to one-shot Dragapult ex before spread damage builds. Scream Tail absorbs bench hits and Manaphy blocks any bench damage strategy.
Raging Bolt ex
Raging Bolt needs the right Energy in play. Gardevoir ex can race it on prizes and one-shot with Miracle Force before Ancient Booster Capsule gets established.
Gholdengo ex
Item lock shuts down Ultra Ball and Rare Candy, making the Stage 2 Gardevoir ex line very slow. Without consistent Item usage it's hard to get two Gardevoir ex into play before Gholdengo starts taking prizes.
Charizard ex
Charizard ex hits Gardevoir ex for weakness. Pidgeot ex's Quick Search finds Boss's Orders every single turn, making it very hard to keep the evolution line alive.
