I only have 1 mewtwo so terrakion can be a pain. I am trying to decide between shaymin ex and tornadus ex.
Shaymin
Props:
2 energy
1 shots after they take 2 prizes
No discard
Resists
Good for late game against non fire decks
Slops:
110 hp
needs eviolite for terrakion to 3hko it
needs grass

Tornadus
Props:
terrakion 3hkos without eviolite
with eviolite 4hkos
resists fighting
higher hp
doesn't need grass
runs on dce
has another decent attack
Slops:
Lightning weakness ugh
only does 100 so it 2 shots terrakion which I don't like
sometimes discards energy which isnt really all that bad but still
needs 3 energy
only really good against fighting decks

Thanks for the advice
 
I still don't get why people actually think Tornadus EX is any good as a Terrakion counter in ZekEels. Without an Eviolite Tornadus EX loses the prize trade and with an Eviolite Tornadus EX still only ties the prize trade, and its not even OHKOing the Terrakion, giving them more time to attach energy and lessening your biggest advantage, energy acceleration. Zekrom EX is a better Terrakion counter in ZekEels than Tornadus EX is! With that in mind, I always run a combination of Tornadus and Mewtwo with some Eviolite with my counters (mostly I use Tornadus, Mewtwo is backup since I often run it anyway).

@dark void so you use normal tornadus

Obviously, that's my point. People are saying that Tornadus EX hurts Tetrakion when it really doesn't-if anything it helps it since normal Tornadus will be used less.
 
Believe it or not, Eviolited Tornadus EX is on an even Prize Trade with Terrakion. Just use Mewtwo and other cards that sweep.
