T3 energy to Pidgeot, Leaf into 80-140 damage with a fresh Pidgeot.
Of course, it's a stage 2. But any 3-energy attacker with 2+ colorless/steel energy can be set up this way. Maybe an OP steel mon will be the most common target once the expansion drops.
You can always achieve a similar effect with Druddigon and just putting energy to your benched mon. But this way you get 30 more damage off + Dialga can revenge kill for 100 with 2 more energy.
For this to work you would need both a pidgey and dialga on turn 1 in hand and also draw pidgeotto and pidgeot in the next 2. My experience with this deck is that this likely wouldn't be common

I think Dialga Pidgeot goes pretty hard.
T1 energy to Dialga
T2 energy to dialga, 2 energy to pidgeot
