Game plan

No Weakness to lean on. Kommo-o has no Weakness, so you need raw damage: 180 in one hit, or 90 twice.
Don't over-invest. It only gives up 1 Prize card, so avoid spending a big two-Prize attacker on it if a cheaper Pokémon can do the job.
Plan for its big hit. Its strongest printed attack is Blazing Uppercut for 250 (3 Energy). 129 Standard cards have enough HP to survive one hit — before any Weakness, + or × effects.
Watch the Retreat Cost. It costs 2 Energy to retreat. If it gets stuck in the Active Spot, that's your chance.
