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, dramatically increasing Celebi EX's attack potential through boosted coin flips. Dhelmise, also benefiting from Jungle Totem, serves as a secondary attacker. While highly effective, this deck is vulnerable to Blaine decks. Exeggcute and Exeggcutor EX offer viable Dhelmise alternatives.
Suggested Cards: Snivy x2, Servine x2, Serperior x2, Celebi EX x2, Dhelmise x2, Erika x2, Professor’s Research x2, Poké Ball x2, X Speed x2, Potion x2, Sabrina x2
Scolipede Koga Bounce
This upgraded classic relies on Koga's ability to bounce Weezing back to your hand for strategic retreats and repeated Poison attacks. Whirlipede and Scolipede enhance Poison consistency. Leaf facilitates Pokémon movement, complementing Koga's strategy.
Suggested 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, Poké Ball x2
Psychic Alakazam
Mew EX's inclusion significantly boosts this deck's viability. Mew EX provides early defense and offensive options (Psyshot and Genome Hacking), allowing time to set up Alakazam. Budding Expeditioner aids Mew EX's retreat. This deck counters the Celebi EX/Serperior combo effectively due to Psychic's damage scaling with opponent's Energy.
Suggested Cards: Mew EX x2, Abra x2, Kadabra x2, Alakazam x2, Kangaskhan x2, Sabrina x2, Professor’s Research x2, Poké Ball x2, X Speed x2, Potion, Budding Expeditioner
Pikachu EX V2
The enduring Pikachu EX deck receives a boost from Dedenne, providing early offense and potential Paralysis. Blue offers defensive support to compensate for Pikachu EX's lower HP. The core strategy remains the same: fill the bench with Electric Pokémon and unleash Pikachu EX's power.
Suggested Cards: Pikachu EX x2, Zapdos EX x2, Blitzle x2, Zebstrika x2, Dedenne x2, Blue, Sabrina, Giovanni, Professor’s Research x2, Poké Ball x2, X Speed, Potion x2
