This is a standard Mega Altaria ex and Darkrai deck that adds Paradox Drive Espeon as another enabler for Darkrai's Bad Dreams. It also uses Mega Rising Eevee so it can evolve and attack as Espeon on its first turn, which is very advantageous if you are going second. This build was used during the Paradox Drive Ranked Season.

 • There are a lot of situations where you Sabrina is more useful, especially when getting the last point. |

Darkrai and its Bad Dreams Ability synergizes with Igglybuff's Sleepy Lullaby which puts the defending Pokemon to Sleep. It also synergizes with Paradox Drive Espeon which is able to inflict Sleep as early as turn 1
This is a powerful early-game strategy that's usable very early in a game.
Mega Altaria ex can score KOs in the late-game, giving this deck an advantage at any point in the game.

With a full Bench, Mega Altaria ex can deal 130 damage to opponents, and it's fairly easy to set up. You can use Professor's Research, Poke Ball, and May to try to get all your Basic Pokemon into your hand as soon as possible.
Your attacker in the Active Spot can be kept healthy with Indeedee ex's Watch Over Ability. If you have two Indeedee ex on your Bench, you can heal up to 40 damage every turn. Additionally, Indeedee ex is a decent enough secondary attacker that can deal good damage to Pokemon with expensive Attack Costs like Mega Gyarados ex.
Although you'd want Mega Altaria ex as your primary attacker, Giratina ex is in this deck as another offensive option in case you need to swap Mega Altaria out. When going up against Pom-Pom Oricorio, there is also a regular Altaria in this deck that you can use to damage it.

Lisia is a great Supporter in this deck because it can consistently find you your Basic Pokemon.
Mega Altaria ex is your primary attacker, which can be kept healthy by Dusknoir.
Eevee from Mega Rising can immediately evolve into Sylveon ex if it is in the Active Spot, and can draw you cards with Happy Ribbon as early as your first turn, increasing your chances of finding a turn 1 Lisia, or a turn 2 Rare Candy into Dusknoir.

It is recommended to start with Iron Crown in the Active Spot and Iron Valiant on your Bench. Iron Crown will discourage your opponent from placing Pokemon on their Bench and punish them if they already have. If you manage to place two Iron Valiant on your Bench, Iron Crown can attack without needing any Energy.
Attach a Future Booster Energy Capsule onto your Iron Crown to allow it to deal more damage. This makes it a threatening Pokemon in the early game.
You can then prioritize giving Mega Altaria ex Energy. It is recommended to keep Mega Altaria ex on your Bench to keep it safe until it can sweep the rest of your opponent's Pokemon in the late game. If you have the Peculiar Plaza in play, you can switch your Pokemon freely without needing to consume Energy.

Mega Altaria ex Deck Strategy Guide
Fill Your Bench
To make the most out of Mega Altaria ex, you'll want to fill all three slots of your Bench with Pokemon. The best Pokemon to have on your Bench are those that can support Mega Altaria with their abilities, such as Indeedee ex or Sylveon ex, or Pokemon that can be used to pivot Mega Altaria out.
Use Non-ex Altaria Against Pom-Pom Oricorio
A single copy of Altaria from B1 is slotted into the deck as a countermeasure to Pom-Pom Oricorio. Consider setting one up quickly if you're up against a Lightning deck.
How to Beat Mega Altaria ex Decks
Use Strong Metal Types
It is recommended to use Metal-type Pokemon with moves that can deal a lot of damage. Mega Altaria ex has 190 HP, so it's hard to knock out in one hit.
Pokemon such as Solgaleo ex and Melmetal ex are strong enough to take one hit from Mega Altaria ex, and knock it out in two turns.
Best Metal Type Deck and Cards Tier List
Swap Out Mega Altaria ex
You can use Sabrina or Cyrus to reposition your opponent's Pokemon and prevent Mega Altaria ex from attacking you for a moment. You can also use it as an opporunity to knock out a Pokemon your opponent has been hiding on the Bench, lowering Mega Altaria ex's power when it switches back into the Active Slot.
