Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Kingdra

Try with 3 bts and a skunktank. since you should be retreating anyways, skunk can be really good with ko's and getting around things like gengar.
 
What kind of techs? I always run a 4-2-4 Kingdra and a 3-3 Claydol. That's it. Works like a charm. Techs in Kingdra are generally a bad idea in Seniors because bad starts can ruin the whole game, and there's no point in making your job more difficult when Kingdra is all you need for a successful beatdown.
 
^uxies are always nice.... 4-3-4 kingdra, 2-2 claydol, 2-1/2 uxie and 3 BTS+4 candys is what i see and it looks like the best list to me.
 
How does the Zangoose tech work? It dosen't seem effective.
 
At the end of the game when you're Opponent is out of Warp/Switch use it to bring up Opponents Claydol then kill it with Pump or bring up like a Dusk DP or w/e and Aqua Stream it. I swear just test it at least it's really effective.
 
Pachirisu helps your Dialga and Palkia matchups. It resists Dialga and slows down their deafen lock enough to give you time to set up, and it hits Palkia for weakness. Mesprit helps your Gigas matchup, denying them a sacrifice for a turn (or more if you can hit your SSU flips) which can cost them their Gigas mid-game. Crobat is like a bench-hitting searchable pluspower, great for 2-hitting 50hp pokemon on the bench (like Baltoy). Skuntank is okay, but I wouldn't waste the space with the way the format is pretty much dominated by Galactics right now.

Oh and some people tech a 1-0-1 Machamp for the Palkia and Dialga matchups, but you end up having to run Multi and Fighting energy which basically makes Aqua Stream useless.
