Take Your Dragapult ex Deck to the Next Level
Looking to take your Dragapult ex League Battle Deck to the next level? Here’s how the top players are optimizing for control, consistency, and pure Psychic domination.
While the deck comes with four Dragapult ex, most competitive lists run just two or three. Why? To keep Drakloaks in play longer for those vital Recon Directive draws before evolving. No need to rush — and that’s why Rare Candy is getting cut from top-tier builds.
The real MVP upgrade? Budew from Prismatic Evolutions. Its Itchy Pollen attack slows down your opponent’s setup by blocking Item cards, buying you all the time you need to build your board. Because of this, many lists are dropping the Xatu line entirely — you’ve got time to spare thanks to Budew’s stall power.
For added edge, some builds are teching in Dusknoir for chip damage or even running a surprise Munkidori with Dark Energy to dominate the mirror match. As Budew often leads the early game, Tatsugiri is also being left behind.
This deck is all about patience, precision, and perfectly timed evolutions. Get ready to haunt the meta.
