Dragapult ex is back in the spotlight, and it’s stealing the show in Prismatic Evolutions! Previously overshadowed by Regidrago VSTAR as the best Phantom Dive deck, Dragapult ex has found its moment, thanks to the introduction of Budew and some clever new strategies.
Here’s why Dragapult ex is dominating:
- Budew’s Itchy Pollen Ability: This ability slows down your opponent early, letting you take control of the game.
- Lance for Easy Setups: Lance is proving to be the MVP for getting Drakloaks ready, especially when paired with Budew. Since Lance is a Supporter card, it can bypass Itchy Pollen’s restrictions, making it the go-to play in this format.
- Japanese Trends: Many top Dragapult ex decks from Japan are running two Budew without Rotom V, focusing on consistent early-game control with Itchy Pollen.
- Phantom Dive Power: The rest of the deck builds on Ryuki Okada’s winning strategy, featuring
Drakloak, Fezandipiti for draw power, and a small Dusknoir line for extra early-game strength.
Dragapult ex is one of the biggest winners in Prismatic Evolutions, proving that it’s here to stay at the top of the meta.
