Game plan

No Weakness to lean on. Mega Dragonite ex has no Weakness, so you need raw damage: 370 in one hit, or 185 twice.
Win the Prize trade. It gives up 3 Prize cards when Knocked Out. Attack it with single-Prize Pokémon so each trade puts you ahead.
Plan for its big hit. Its strongest printed attack is Ryuno Glide for 330 (3 Energy). 25 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.
