Play this card is really risky, clearly, but if you are fast the victory will be yours. Meganium (Wild Growth) its the most important partner for this Pokémon, with only one Grass Energy we can make a considerable amount of damage, but support cards like Defender or Focus Band are really necesary to avoid collateral damage, and as far as posible use Armor Up to increase the chances of survival.

Thank you, PkmnProfessor.

Hi Blob. The website is closed, but a friend and i have a Facebook fanpage where we share ‘vieja escuela’ (‘oldschool’) format decks. That format is modified and covers from Base Set to Neo Destiny. If you want, you can search us on Facebook like ‘Poémon TCG: The Lab’. The web is in spanish, but we upload the full decklists in english.
