Foil promo cards of Bulbasaur, Venusaur ex, Squirtle, and Blastoise ex
Game Plan : Avoid extended games : Try to win before turn 8 Giovanni usage : Save Giovanni for exact lethal calculations against high-HP targets Zapdos EX as finisher : Use Zapdos EX to gamble on high-damage rolls (150200) to speed up knockouts Winning Lines : Target low-HP evolutions (Ivysaur, Gloom) with Sabrina before they evolve Use Electrode as alternative damage source (110 damage with 3 energy bypasses some healing) Apply constant pressure to prevent them from setting up healing loops Loss Condition : If Venusaur EX reaches full energy (4+) and starts healing more damage than you deal per turn, you lose
