Discussion Ways to Heal Altaria-EX Consistently?

[MystikX]

With Fates Collide coming out soon, I'm planning on giving the new Altaria-EX a shot with a deck potentially based around it. As such, I'm looking for ways to consistently heal it to be able to use its first attack at full power each turn.

The first thing that came to mind is Jynx FLF, being an easy-to-search Basic that can heal each turn.

Another thing I was thinking of was combining Hypno BKP and All-Night Party, with the potential of including Darkrai-EX as well.

What other ways are there that I can use? I mean, aside from the obvious bad cards like Potion, Fresh Water Set, etc.?

Jynx is probably the best way to heal. I tried a similar deck with Seaking (Breakthrough) who has a similar attack and Jynx worked fairly well. The real issue trying to find consistent ways of damaging yourself.

Team Magma's secret base, frozen city in expanded, rainbow energy, opponent's attacks...

I would say use Ariados, Jynx and probably Fighting Fury Belts for Altaria, just to make sure your HP doesn't get low enough for something to finish it off easily.

You could potentially play Max Potion, but then you'd have to run some way of getting DCEs back.

Yea, like you said jinx is probably the best option. You could try running ariados, but with almost every deck attacking you, it's probably not needed and would hurt more than it would help. I would run a few jinx and Sky Field just so that you can heal big numbers.
