Besides the powerful V and VMAX Pokemon cards that are becoming increasingly used in battles, there are still many other strong cards for a Fire-type deck. For example, take a look at a few from the Fusion Strike expansion that was released in November 2


As one would expect from the adorable card art, Light Jolteon has some great protective traits. Its Pulse Guard prevents any damage of 30 or more done to it, essentially making Light Jolteon immune to hard-hitting attacks and significantly increasing its longevity. However, this move does not protect the card from special conditions like being Poisoned or Confu


Part of the Majestic Dawn expansion, Empoleon is a stage 2 Water-Type Pokémon Card, with 130 HP. Empoleon comes equipped with two extremely useful abilities, the first being Dual Splash, which requires one water and one colorless energy card to deal 30 damage to any two of the opponent’s poké


Junk Arm is a Trainer Card that is allowed in play only in the Legacy formats of PTCG, but it’s a shame since this card is immensely powerful and does not weaken the player’s gameplay in any man


Furthermore, the player can reshuffle all discarded water energy cards from the discard pile into the playing deck after using Riptide. Along with cards such as Misty’s Wrath and Secret Mission from the Wizards Of The Coast Era, this card is extremely power


Here's a Pokemon with a one-two combo that will give the opponent nightmares. With Dark Gengar's Pull In attack, it deals 30 damage and puts the foe Asleep, though they can also choose to drag a Pokemon from the Bench and do the same to them inst


Although neither of its attacks does huge amounts of damage, Dark Alakazam from the Team Rocket Expansion is a card that requires greater intellect to use most effectively. It can teleport into the Bench with a blast that does moderate damage as well as granting a free swi


This is one of the best-supporting moves of any card released in the Neo Destiny expansion, though if push comes to shove, Light Ledian can unleash a flurry of punches for unreliable, yet potentially high, dam


Volkner’s Philosophy is a Trainer Card that works in a similar manner as the Birch and Bianca Trainer Cards but differs in the sense that it also allows the player to discard a card from his/her hand. It is the perfect card to play after the player has finished a big turn and needs to draw useful cards to setup upcoming pl

As such, it is subject to the "power creep" seen in a lot of other trading card game franchises. This means that trainers who are active in the TCG-battle scene should always check out new cards to see if they can use them to improve their deck. This is as true for Fire-type Pokemon cards as it is for the other TCG ty


Blastoise has been an extremely potent Pokémon card, throughout its different publications, and has to be the most powerful TCG Water-type pokémon to exist. However, the Boundaries Crossed Blastoise is arguably the most powerful, with abilities like Deluge and Hydro P


When Dark Gyarados gets Knocked Out by an opponent's attack, Final Beam will activate and grant the trainer a special coin flip. If heads, the opposing Pokemon will take 20 damage for each Water-type energy attached to Dark Gyara


In addition, like its previous evolutionary form, Light Dragonite has a wave-related attack that prevents certain aspects of enemy moves. In this case, Light Wave prevents all effects done with the exception of damage, meaning that it will be impossible for the enemy to set a special condition, or any other adverse effects, upon Light Dragonite. Being Colorless-type also means that this card can potentially fit into almost any kind of deck for supreme useability and versatil


This can cause enough chaos to prevent the foe from forming a proper defense. It should be mentioned that this Fire-type's sole attack is only useful against evolved Pokemon, doing little damage against Baby and Basic cards. A somewhat common trait among the gentle Light Poke


However, the Arrokudas themselves are not simple ammunition. Having a single one in hand as the battle begins can lead to a quick and devastating early-game strategy. Playing one of these slender aquatic pokemon on turn one, along with an energy card, can let a trainer summon two of their brethren from the deck onto the bench. On the next turn, retreat the active Arrokuda back to the bench and send out a Cramorant. If one also has a Double Colorless Energy, they can play it onto their avian ally and unleash a Continuous Gulp Missile for a colossal 180 damage. This low-cost tactic is likely to knock out almost any opponent. Being so early in the SLG game tutorial, if the opposing trainer has no other pokemon, this can net a quick and decisive vict
