  • Scolipede Koga Bounce
  • Psychic Alakazam
  • Pikachu Ex V2

Celebi Ex and Serperior Combo

This popular deck aims for rapid Serperior deployment. Serperior's Jungle Totem ability doubles the Energy count on all Grass Pokémon, including Celebi Ex. This dramatically boosts Celebi Ex's coin flip-based attack damage. Dhelmise serves as a secondary attacker, also benefiting from Jungle Totem. While potent, this deck is vulnerable to Blaine decks. Exeggcute and Exeggcutor Ex offer viable Dhelmise substitutes.

Key Cards: Snivy x2, Servine x2, Serperior x2, Celebi Ex x2, Dhelmise x2, Erika x2, Professor’s Research x2, Poke Ball x2, X Speed x2, Potion x2, Sabrina x2

Scolipede Koga Bounce

This upgraded classic utilizes Koga's ability to bounce Weezing back to your hand, providing a free retreat and enabling repeated Poison attacks. Whirlipede and Scolipede enhance Poison consistency. Leaf facilitates Pokémon movement, complementing Koga's strategy.

Key Cards: Venipede x2, Whirlepede x2, Scolipede x2, Koffing (Mythical Island) x2, Weezing x2, Mew Ex, Koga x2, Sabrina x2, Leaf x2, Professor’s Research x2, Poke Ball x2

Psychic Alakazam

Mew Ex provides early game tanking and attack capabilities, buying time to set up Alakazam. Budding Expeditioner aids Mew Ex's retreat. Alakazam counters the Celebi Ex/Serperior combo, dealing increased damage based on the opponent's attached Energy, even factoring in Jungle Totem.

Key Cards: Mew Ex x2, Abra x2, Kadabra x2, Alakazam x2, Kangaskhan x2, Sabrina x2, Professor’s Research x2, Poke Ball x2, X Speed x2, Potion, Budding Expeditioner

Pikachu Ex V2

Pikachu Ex V2 Deck

The enduring Pikachu Ex deck receives a boost with Dedenne, offering early-game offense and Paralysis potential. Blue provides defensive support to compensate for Pikachu Ex's low HP. The core strategy remains: fill the bench with Electric Pokémon and unleash Pikachu Ex's attacks.

Key Cards: Pikachu Ex x2, Zapdos Ex x2, Blitzle x2, Zebstrika x2, Dedenne x2, Blue, Sabrina, Giovanni, Professor’s Research x2, Poke Ball x2, X Speed, Potion x2
