Its VMAX form also means ridiculous HP , so it can tank hits while charging up for devastating swings
While there are a few creatures in the 99 that can help mitigate this problem, Id definitely recommend adding a few cards to help make sure that damage gets through during combat
Utopia has the number 9 in the ones column while Dark Mist has the number 9 in the tens column

Tutors are cards that find other cards, whether theyre specific or generalized, and act as a way to add some much-needed consistency to combo or control decks
Gengar ex also has 170 hp which makes it quite capable of tanking a couple of hits, and Spooky Shot deals a solid 100 damage per turn, but requires quite a bit of setup with needing Gastly and Haunter as pre-evolutions, and three Energy attached to get Spooky Shot running
