Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

What will take down Gardevoir/Gallade decks?

GG can do wonders to Magmortar. It's a pretty good matchup either way. If you have Mag then you can snipe a Gardie and do pain to a Gallade by burning it. But a Mag that does'nt have defence against sonic blade is not very good. A properly built Mag can do heavy damage to even the best GG players but be carefull against small misplays, they seem to ruin the game for Mag.
GG can do more to mag if it has more retreating power. The Mag can still snipe but only giving burn one chance to do damage can keep Gallades and Gardie X's from being 1-attack-KO'd. A 1-1 Wevile chain w/ moonlight stadium can give anti-mortor but requires a little to much room. Dusknoir can endgame save GG like theres no tomorrow.

In the 11-14 division GG has beaten Mortor alot. At cities my terrible Glickario version of GG (that only ran 2 PK gardie and 1 Gallade rather than a good GG chain) won against a deck that had four fully-powered Mag Lv X (not at the same time, obviously. Night maintinence+Furret=ew). The actually good restructure of that deck has gone undefeated against Mags in 11-14 and is, in that age group, much stronger than any Lickilciky-running deck should ever hope to be. However, 15+ actually knows what to tech and, thankfully, does'nt misplay alot like some people I know
