A less consistent version of this deck was played during the Diamond & Pearl era using {{TCG|Secret Wonders}} {{TCG ID|Secret Wonders|Blastoise|2}} for the extra Energy attachment. This version lacked the unlimited Energy loop, required more Energy cards, and lacked the consistent healing. In the Unlimited format, Pokémon such as {{TCG ID|Black & White|Emboar|20}} and {{TCG ID|BREAKthrough|Magnezone|54}} may provide alternate Energy attachment.

Forretress Donk is designed to win on the very first turn of the game (a Donk City) by taking all prize cards and/or knocking out all of the opponent's Pokémon. The ideal start would be {{TCG ID|Stormfront|Sableye|48}}; its ''Overearger'' {{TCG|Poké-BODY}} allows the player to go first when played in the Active position.

The deck's draw engine allows the player to draw all cards of their deck with a single Energy card. {{TCG ID|Boundaries Crossed|Blastoise|31}} and its alternatives allow the player to attach, as often as they like, Energy cards of a respective type to Pokémon in play. The Energy is attached to {{TCG ID|HGSS Promo|Shuckle|15}}; its ''Fermenting Liquid'' Poké-BODY lets the player draw a card every time an Energy card is attached to it. {{TCG ID|Aquapolis|Espeon|H9}}'s ''Energy Return'' Poké-POWER allows the player to return those Energy cards to the hand. This establishes an infinite loop of drawing with Shuckle.

After drawing the needed cards, the next step would be to get out {{TCG ID|Legends Awakened|Forretress|28}} and {{TCG ID|Rising Rivals|Leafeon|45}}. The Energy would be attached to Forretress instead of Shuckle. Forretress's ''Iron Shell'' Poké-BODY has the player flip a coin every time an Energy card is attached to it; tails places 2 damage counters on all Pokémon (excluding any Forretress). The damage to the player's Pokémon can be continuously healed with Leafeon's Poké-BODY.

*'''{{TCG ID|Legends Awakened|Forretress|28}}''' -  Its ''Iron Shell'' Poké-BODY is activated when the player attaches an Energy card to it. The player flips a coin, if it is tails place 2 damage counters on all Pokémon (excluding any Forretress).

*'''{{TCG ID|Boundaries Crossed|Blastoise|31}}''' - Its ''Deluge'' {{TCG|Ability}} lets the play attach {{e|Water}} Energies from their hand as often as they like during their turn.

*'''{{TCG ID|Aquapolis|Espeon|H9}}''' - Its Poké-POWER is used to return Energy cards attached to the player's Pokémon, allowing an infinite loop of their utilities.

*'''{{TCG ID|Wizards Promo|Eevee|11}}''' - Eevee's ''Chain Reaction'' Pokémon Power  forces the Eevee to evolve from the deck when the player evolves one of the other Pokémon. This effectively allows the player to use search resources in other Pokémon.

*'''{{TCG ID|Rising Rivals|Leafeon|45}}''' - When it is the Active Pokémon, it's ''Energy Refresh'' Poké-BODY allows the healing of all of the player's Pokémon when an Energy card is attached to Leafeon.

*'''{{TCG ID|Legends Awakened|Uxie|43}}''' - It's ''Set Up'' Poké-POWER allows the player to draw cards until they have seven cards in their hand.
