Card Details
Character Background
Raikou ex from Team Magma vs Team Aqua is a classic Lightning pressure card that best fits an aggressive tempo plan: it wants to hit hard, force awkward responses, and keep the opponent off balance. Dazzle Blast is a small but annoying opener, because a 10-damage chip plus a coin-flip Confusion can buy a turn or break up an evolving board, while Lightning Tackle gives you a real 70-damage swing that can close games quickly in its era. The self-damage on tails means you want to pair Raikou ex with healing or damage-mitigation support, and ideally with Energy acceleration or discard recovery so you can keep attacking without losing momentum. In deckbuilding, it works best in a Lightning shell that can exploit paralysis-like tempo and capitalize on Confusion-induced misplays; cards that force the opponent into risky retreat decisions make Raikou ex especially punishing.
