GLC Deck - PCS - Beginner Grass

This is a Beginner Level deck to help players get into Gym Leader Challenge. This deck may not be finely tuned to dominate your local meta, but works as a simple to run deck while they get into the vase card pool associated with GLC. Beginner Grass aims to set up 3 Stage 2 pokemon to support Big attackers. Use Budew in the beginning to slow down your opponent's setup with Itchy Pollen. Focus on setting up Turtwig/Grotle to use Grotle's "Sun Drenched Shell" ability to help you find your Pokemon. Rillaboom will help get energy from the deck and attach them directly to your attackers, and Meganium can double the energy to pull off Strong expensive attacks. Sawsbuck helps us find powerful Stadiums when we need them. The deck is rounded out with Zarude and Tapu Bulu, 2 very strong Basic Pokemon. For any additional advice, ask local players and Tournament Organizers to help you understand the ideal order of cards. This Deck also has some great upgrade options to help make it more competitive wherever you like to play GLC! This Decklist brought to you by the Parallel City Syndicate Team!
