In the competitive world of Pokémon TCG Pocket, some decks have dominated the game, creating strategies that are difficult to counter. However, with the arrival of Wugtrio EX in Brilliant Festival, the dominance of the trio Giratina EX, Druddigon, and Darkrai EX has found a tough rival.
This Water-type Pokémon not only possesses great resilience, but its attack mechanics allow it to bypass the most used defensive strategies in the current metagame.
Why is Wugtrio EX the perfect counter?
The mechanics of this competitive deck revolve around Druddigon as a defensive wall, blocking direct attacks while its teammates accumulate energy on the bench. However, Wugtrio EX breaks this strategy with its peculiar attack ability.
Characteristics of Wugtrio EX:
- It evolves from Wiglett, which facilitates its access in the game.
- It has 140 health points, making it more resilient than other Pokémon of its type.
- Its attack has no base damage, but it randomly selects three opposing Pokémon and deals 50 damage points for each selection.
- It doesn't require a coin flip, making it a guaranteed 150 damage points per turn.
How Wugtrio EX surpasses the Giratina-Druddigon-Darkrai trio
The main problem when facing this deck is Druddigon's resilience, which absorbs hits and returns 20 damage points to the striker. However, Wugtrio EX avoids this obstacle, as its attack distributes the damage without directly attacking the active Pokémon.
