Hello all PokeBeach readers! Here is Gabriel Semedo again with another Pokémon TCG article and this time I’m going to talk about the success of Gardevoir ex and how this deck gets even better with the arrival of the new Paldea Evolved set.
Gardevoir ex in the Paldea Evolved Format

Usually, at the end of the format, we are already tired of always playing with the same decks, encountering the same game situations, and losing or winning for the same reasons, however, in this specific format I didn’t even see time pass and I felt the game was interesting every time sat at the table to play. One of the big factors in this was Gardevoir ex — from the moment I played with the deck for the first time, I enjoyed its gameplay, and at the same time, I realized that I would have a lot to learn to master the deck.

What do you think of adding Artison Stadium to the deck to help get Ralths and other basics and it also gets rid of opponents' problematic stadiums? The latest tournament lists run 2 of them as well as 4 Iono and 2 Bosses. The added consistency of drawing your basics also meant that those deck go to 3 Kirlias and 3 Level Balls.
I imagine that you can replace Temple of Sinnoh if your local metagame doesn't have much Lugia and Mew, but maybe that is just wrong?

Artazon is a good stadium for Gardevoir, but remember that you also helps your opponent when you drop in the field. Mirror match and Lost Box becomes harder, but on the other hand some Arceus variants and Mew Path becomes easier since you have more cards to get rid of Path to the Peak.
There are a lot of pros and cons about Artazon, because this card can solve a big problem for Gardevoir (Path to the Peak) and also helps to find some Ralts during the game. Temple of Sinnoh and Collapsed Stadium are good stadium in Garde for many reasons, but they are not mandatory, so If you want to play only Artazon as Stadium cards instead, it's fine.

In the end, you need to play around 14 cards like Artazon, Level Ball, Battle Vip Pass that can bring you basic Pokémon.

So if you want to remove Battle Vip Pass to play 3 Artazon, 4 Level Ball, 4 Fog Crystal, 3 Ultra Ball, it will probably work reasonably, even Battle Vip Pass being one of the best cards in the game for a turn one.
