Game plan
- Hit its Weakness. Mega Manectric ex is weak to Fighting, so those attacks do double damage. 21 Standard cards can Knock it Out in one hit that way — the fastest needs just 1 Energy.
- Win the Prize trade. It gives up 3 Prize cards when Knocked Out. 11 single-Prize Pokémon can take it out in one attack, so you trade 1 Prize for 3.
- Plan for its big hit. Its strongest printed attack is Riotous Blasting for 200+ (3 Energy). 161 Standard cards have enough HP to survive one hit — before any Weakness, + or × effects.
- Watch the Retreat Cost. It retreats for free, so it can swap out easily — expect it to dodge.
