General F2P Expert Solo Battle Guides
- Consider using rental decks to beat the stage. This is a good strategy especially if you're a new player. This allows for 100% completion without spending any money.
- Complete tasks gradually. Challenge solo battles multiple times with different decks until all objectives are achieved. You DO NOT need to complete all tasks in one-sitting.
- Key Supporting/Item Cards for Success (General Deck Building Guide):
- promo-1-potion: 2 copies. Keep your Active Pokémon to survive longer giving you 1 or 2 extra turns while you setup your benched Pokémon or do some counterplays.
- promo-5-poke-ball: 2 copies. Tutor cards from your deck and thin your deck for better draws.
- promo-7-professors-research: 2 copies. Draw more cards for increased options and flexibility during your turn.
- a1a-64-pokemon-flute: 1 or 2 copies. This card combos well with the a1-225-sabrina card. Bring a basic Pokémon for your opponent's bench and use a1-225-sabrina for an easy KO securing a point.
- a1-272-sabrina: 1 or 2 copies. Force your opponent's EX Pokémon back to the bench to gain an advantage and potentially secure a match point.
- promo-2-x-speed: Rotate your Active Pokémon with Benched Pokémon to prevent unnecessary knockouts and maximize the effectiveness of your setup. (Optional, as you can easily reset Solo Battles.)
- a1a-82-leaf: None or 1 copy. Some Pokémon requires 2 energies to retreat and this card can help in clutch situations.
- Use other decks: Once you have completed the "Win this battle using a deck where all the Pokémon cards are of ⟡, ⟡⟡, and/or ⟡⟡⟡ rarity" challenge, transition to more powerful decks featuring EX Pokémon. MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER.
- Refer to our Guides Section and Tier List for deckbuilding inspiration and optimal strategies.
Recommended ⟡, ⟡⟡, and/or ⟡⟡⟡ Deck List
- Completing the "Win this battle with a deck whose Pokémon are only Grass-type" task is going to be harder compared to the first 2 stages.
- The idea of our recommended deck is to use a1-26-pinsir to quickly dispatch the opposing (unevolved) Pokémon in the first few turns.
- It's best to go second with a1-26-pinsir in hand - reset if you are going first and have a bad hand while playing this deck.
- The ideal situation is to knockout a1-39-growlithe or a1a-13-larvesta while the opposing A.I. has an empty bench with a high roll a1-26-pinsir.
- a1a-7-morelull and a1a-8-shiinotic are flexible cards that can be swapped with ANYTHING.
