Puppy Pile Deck Strategy Guide

Deal Lots of Damage with Puppy Pile

Puppy Pile can deal lots of damage with more Pokemon in your hand with the Puppy Pile Attack. Try to draw as many cards as you can with Puppy Loving Girl and Professor's Research to boost your damage.

Use Yamper to Set Up

Because Yamper is the deck's only Lightning Pokemon, your Trainer cards that allow you to accelerate and conserve Energy are highly reliant on it. Make sure to find Yamper early on in your set up.

Maximize Damage with Bounded Field

Bounded Field allows you to take advantage of all the different types that the deck features. The deck lets you hit Fire-weak Pokemon for super-effective damage, as well as Lightning-weak, Psychic-weak, and Fighting-weak Pokemon.

How to Beat Puppy Pile Decks

Use Efficient Attackers

Because all the Pokemon in the deck require multiple turns to attack, faster and more efficient attackers can gain the upper hand earlier. Non-ex Pokemon can also trade damage more favorably this way.

Use Hand Disruption

Puppy Pile decks may struggle to reach high enough numbers to achieve KOs, especially if you shuffle back their hand into their deck.
