Trade losses for wins Zoroark GX Deck!

With the new Shining Legends set, we just got a few new interesting cards like Zoroark GX - so today, we are going to share one cool deck strategy.

Zoroark GX from Shining Legends, is a 210HP Pokemon with a powerfull trade abllity that allows player to trade one card from their hand (discard that card from hand) in exchange to draw two new cards from top of the deck. Theoretically speaking, with two Zoroark GX in play we don't need to worry anymore about N in the late game.

On the other hand, Zoroark GX also has two different attacks - the first one is Riotous Beating for DCE (This attack does 20 damage times the number of Pokemon you have in play). So without Sky Field, right now the max number of Pokemon that can be in play is six, so 120 for DCE with 210 HP is not bad, especially when we can add Choice Band for 30 more or simply spread some damage before with Necrozma GX or maybe even Tapu Koko GX. The second GX attack on Zoroark GX is Trickster GX, and it's the identical attack as on the famous Zoroark BREAK (but it cost one more energy and it can copy 1 attack from any opponent's Pokemon's in play)!

Zoroark GXs' best friend's are Hoopa, a new strong non GX/EX attacker with Scoundrel Guard ability that prevent GX or EX Pokemon from making any damage to Hoopa, regular Zoroark with Mind Jack and the Stand In ability from BREAKThrough, as well as Tapu Koko for damage spread, and Necrozma GX for an easy matchup against Metagross GX/Volcanion EX and Espeon EX to devolve all opponent's Pokemon in play.

Mallow is simply to good to be true in this deck. With the Mallow, we can simpy take any two cards from the deck and put them on the top of the deck and simply draw them with Zoroark GX draw ability. Multi Switch can also help us to move energy from one Pokemon to the other and simply take full potential of the Necrozma GX/Zoroark with Mind Jack or Zoroark GX.

Overall this is a solid new deck that can easily become a new tier one or meta deck when Zoroark GX becomes legal in official Pokemon TCG tournaments around the world
