- Celebi Ex and Serperior Combo
- Scolipede Koga Bounce
- Psychic Alakazam
- Pikachu Ex V2
Celebi Ex and Serperior Combo
This popular deck aims for a swift Serperior deployment. Serperior's Jungle Totem ability doubles the Energy count on all Grass Pokémon, including Celebi Ex. This drastically boosts Celebi Ex's coin flip-based damage output. Dhelmise serves as a secondary attacker, also benefiting from Jungle Totem. While highly effective, it's vulnerable to Blaine decks. Exeggcute and Exeggcutor Ex offer viable alternatives if Dhelmise isn't available.
Key Cards: Snivy, Servine, Serperior, Celebi Ex, Dhelmise, Erika, Professor’s Research, Poké Ball, X Speed, Potion, Sabrina.
Scolipede Koga Bounce
This enhanced classic utilizes Koga's ability to bounce Weezing back to your hand, providing a free retreat and strategic repositioning while maintaining Poison damage. Whirlipede and Scolipede enhance Poison consistency. Leaf facilitates Pokémon movement alongside Koga's strategy.
Key Cards: Venipede, Whirlepede, Scolipede, Koffing (Mythical Island), Weezing, Mew Ex, Koga, Sabrina, Leaf, Professor’s Research, Poké Ball.
Psychic Alakazam
Mew Ex's inclusion significantly improves this deck's viability. Mew Ex provides early defense and offensive options (Psyshot and Genome Hacking). This buys time to set up Alakazam, further aided by Budding Expeditioner. Crucially, Alakazam counters the Celebi Ex/Serperior combo due to Psychic's damage scaling with opponent's Energy.
Key Cards: Mew Ex, Abra, Kadabra, Alakazam, Kangaskhan, Sabrina, Professor’s Research, Poké Ball, X Speed, Potion, Budding Expeditioner.
Pikachu Ex V2
The enduring Pikachu Ex deck receives a boost with Dedenne. Dedenne serves as an initial attacker and offers Paralysis. Pikachu Ex's lower HP is mitigated by Blue's defensive capabilities. The core strategy remains: fill the bench with Electric Pokémon and unleash Pikachu Ex.
Key Cards: Pikachu Ex, Zapdos Ex, Blitzle, Zebstrika, Dedenne, Blue, Sabrina, Giovanni, Professor’s Research, Poké Ball, X Speed, Potion.
