Best Electric Oricorio deck list – Pokémon TCG Pocket

I cannot understand how overpowered and broken this deck is, mainly because many Pokémon TCG Pocket players are not considering it in ranked currently. I have gone from unranked to Ultra Rank in a day on a 15-game winning streak and had the odd loss here and there.

It’s incredible how effective one lone card can be. Still, with the Electric-type Oricorio deck, I have managed to create a consistent deck that pulls into cards that I need nearly all the time, and has cards that can draw and reset my hand at a moment’s notice. There is so much variety that I want to pass this deck list onto trainers who also want to use this powerful bird.

So let’s begin, shall we?

Best Pom Pom Oricorio Pokémon TCG Pocket deck

So with this deck, I have taken a core Pikachu ex and Pachirisu ex deck and added Oricorio into it instead of Zapdos ex or another Pokémon you would usually see. I was skeptical using it at first, but the more I’ve played and fine-tuned it, the more broken I’m convinced it is.

You have a lot of draw power, and even if you start slow or stack up cards in your hand, an Iono can reset everything and likely give you the cards you need. Not to mention cards like Mars are great for getting rid of an opponent’s hand quickly, and Red is great for those final hits on opposing ex Pokémon.

Pikachu ex hasn’t been meta for a while, but Pom-Pomn Oricorio fits into the deck too well. I can’t tell you how many games I have played where the opponent only has ex Pokémon, and all I do is slap down a single Oricori, and there is nothing they can do about it. I choose not to have a backline at all other than the other Oricorio in those situations and Zzzap their health away a turn at a time until they either rage quit or concede.

The card is forcing players to adapt and have something in their decks to deal with it. No longer do we have decks that are all ex-cards with no consequence. This pesky little bird is helping me climb up the ladder faster than ever before, and I hope by sharing this deck list, you will too.

I have seen other variants of the deck like Magneton and Zapdos, but I find the wealth of options in this deck, with Pikachu and Pachirisu ex being a great damage dealer, gives you a lot of options to contest with most decks you come across. It’s also so easy to swap Pokémon out as they all have low retreat costs, letting you match your opponent’s moves with ease.

The only times I have lost are when drawing cards isn’t on my side, or the opponent’s team is stacked with Rocky Helmets that kill the bird before it can kill their high health ex Pokémon. I have been debating putting a Guzma in to counteract this, but the Giant’s Cape is a good alternative to having that 20 extra health for one final attack.

Let me know in the comments what your own deck list is like, and if you are also having fun trolling ranked players with the devil bird!
