Three Diamond Fire Deck

Pokémon

  • Vulpix x2
  • Ninetales x2
  • Ponyta x2
  • Rapidash x2

Trainers

  • Potion x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2
  • Sabrina x2
  • Blaine x2
  • X Speed x1
  • Giovanni x1

This is a quick, simple 3 Diamond or less Fire deck that sets up fast and hits hard. This is great for completing the Solo missions that require a Three Diamond or less deck. I have also had some success with it against players utilizing the Celebi/Serperior meta deck that's in play, though it requires the RNG be in your favor!

The key to this deck is getting Rapidash set up and on the field early. If you are going second I would recommend starting with Vulpix to get an energy on it so you can stop incoming attacks, especially if you are going up against a Water deck.

Exeggutor Ex

Pokémon

  • Exeggutor ex x1
  • Exeggutor x1
  • Exeggcute x2
  • Caterpie x2
  • Metapod x2
  • Butterfree x2

Trainers

  • Erika x2
  • Sabrina x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

It's fun!

Try to get both Butterfrees rolling for maximum heal, while Exeggutor tanks. Swap so you can heal other Exeggutor in bank. And only get heads.

Reforged Steel

Pokémon

  • Caterpie x2
  • Metapod x2
  • Butterfree x2
  • Meltan x2
  • Melmetal x2
  • Mawile x1

Trainers

  • Sabrina x1
  • Professor's Research x2
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2

This deck requires a bit of skill to use, but it’s proven powerful against many EX decks. The main strategy centers on building up both Melmetal and Butterfree to maximize their abilities. Melmetal’s "Hard Coat" ability automatically reduces incoming damage by 20, while Butterfree’s "Healing Powder" restores 20 HP each turn to both your active and benched Pokémon. Together, they effectively reduce 40 damage per turn.

Poison Trap

Pokémon

  • Ekans x2
  • Koffing x2
  • Arbok x2
  • Weezing x2

Trainers

  • Koga x2
  • Sabrina x2
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

An aggressive choice for countering and stalling out high-energy meta decks. Use Sabrina to force opponents to switch out their backline Pokémon, then secure KOs with Arbok by denying their retreat. The goal is to score points on enemy Pokémon as quickly as possible and disrupt their strategy.

Weezing is great for getting chip damage in with Gas Leak, especially on main Pokémon with high HP. It also works with Koga as a stall Pokémon, as it can take some hits before being returned to your hand and switched out for Arbok's damage attack.

Starmie EX

Pokémon

  • Staryu x2
  • Starmie ex x2
  • Articuno ex x2

Trainers

  • Misty x2
  • Giovanni x2
  • Sabrina x2
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

It is a flexible deck with two possible starters:

Weezing Scolipede Combo

Pokémon

  • Koffing x2
  • Weezing x2
  • Venipede x2
  • Whirlipede x2
  • Scolipede x2

Trainers

  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2
  • Koga x2
  • Leaf x2
  • Sabrina x2

Blaine

Pokémon

  • Vulpix x2
  • Ninetales x2
  • Ponyta x2
  • Rapidash x2

Trainers

  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2
  • Blaine x2
  • Giovanni x2
  • Sabrina x2

Consistent non-ex aggro deck

Venusaur EX + Lilligant (supp)

Pokémon

  • Bulbasaur x2
  • Petilil x2
  • Ivysaur x2
  • Lilligant x2
  • Venusaur ex x1
  • Venusaur ex x1

Trainers

  • Erika x2
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

Meta Exeggutor Dance

Pokémon

  • Exeggutor ex x2
  • Exeggcute x2
  • Caterpie x2
  • Metapod x2
  • Butterfree x2

Trainers

  • Erika x1
  • Sabrina x2
  • Potion x1
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

Tried all variations of Exeggutor EX decks and this is most flexible & balanced one that carried me to 50 wins. 

Set up: Always try to open with Caterpie to protect the first Exeggcute and draw an extra Pokemon. If all goes to plan you'll able to swap an Exeggutor in by turn 2-3 to tank/trample the opponent's opener (Early Sabrina draw should help here - you don't really need it after the Exeggutors are set up). 

Marowak EX/Primeape

Pokémon

  • Marowak ex x2
  • Cubone x2
  • Primeape x2
  • Mankey x2

Trainers

  • Sabrina x2
  • Giovanni x2
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

Marowak EX was initially accompanied by Dugtrio because of its low retreat cost and damage prevention with Dig. However, since Promo Mankey has been introduced, Marowak EX can be paired with hard-hitter that allows you to inflict heavy damage from second turn, no matter what Pokémon you open the battle with. Quick offensive can be successful against decks that require little more time to prepare for heavy attacks. 

Depends on your opening hand, you can start the fight with either:

Team Rocket Blasting Off

Pokémon

  • Ekans x2
  • Arbok x2
  • Koffing x2
  • Weezing x2
  • Grimer x1
  • Muk x1

Trainers

  • Koga x2
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

Can replace 1 Koga to 1 Sabrina
Poison in, keep them in with Arbok. 
Easy to play vs Mewtwo decks.

Winnable against Pika EX and Misty Articuno/Starmie decks.

Runs from Monkey decks o7

Pikachu/Zapdos/Electrode

Pokémon

  • Pikachu ex x2
  • Zapdos ex x2
  • Voltorb x2
  • Electrode x2

Trainers

  • Sabrina x2
  • Giovanni x1
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2
  • Red Card x1

Arcanine/Moltres/Wigglytuff EX control deck

Pokémon

  • Growlithe x2
  • Arcanine ex x2
  • Moltres ex x1
  • Jigglypuff x2
  • Wigglytuff ex x2

Trainers

  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2
  • Giovanni x2
  • Sabrina x1

Hard to use deck that have a very high winrate against decks that primarily use pokemons with 120/130 hp. Very versatile as you can build both a Moltres/Arcanine ex combo, as well as a Wigglytuff ex to disrupt your opponent with sleep. The exception is decks that can reliably oneshot your Arcanine EX, where you NEED to build your Wigglytuff first. So meta and deck knowledge is needed.

Koga Alakazam

Pokémon

  • Abra x2
  • Kadabra x2
  • Alakazam x2
  • Koffing x2
  • Weezing x2

Trainers

  • Koga x2
  • Sabrina x1
  • Professor's Research x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Mythical Slab x2
  • Leaf x1

Strategy is to use Weezing to stall and poison until Alakazam is ready, then use Koga for a "free" retreat. Energy is Dark/Psychic, each Pokemon only needs a single coloured pip to function. Weezing is mostly there to act as a meatshield and poison, but I have found the fail rate of "you only get Dark energy" low enough to be worth the extra attacker. 

 

Like every other deck, a game where you can reasonably curve out Alakazam will be a good game.

Mythical Island Update

 

Gyarados ex and Greninja Deck

Pokémon

  • Froakie x2
  • Frogadier x2
  • Greninja x2
  • Magikarp x2
  • Gyarados ex x2
  • Druddigon x2

Trainers

  • Misty x2
  • Leaf x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

Strengths:
• Gyarados ex's 180 HP can withstand heavy hits.
• Gyarados ex's Rampaging Whirlpool can discard Energy from the opponent's pokemon.
• Greninja can damage any of the opponent's Pokemon with Water Shuriken.

Weaknesses:
• Weak against aggro Lightning decks.
• Takes time to set up.

Kiloude City Shuffle

Pokémon

  • Bellsprout x2
  • Weepinbell x2
  • Victreebel x2
  • Pidgey x1
  • Pidgeotto x1
  • Pidgeot x1
  • Old Amber x2
  • Aerodactyl x2

Trainers

  • Professor's Research x2
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x1

This deck is hilarious to play but incredibly frustrating for opponents, especially those with powerhouse decks that require heavy energy buildup.

Start with Bellsprout, aiming to evolve into Victreebel as your primary attacker. Build out Aerodactyl and a second Victreebel next, with Pidgeot as a backup option. Alternatively, starting with Aerodactyl can sometimes lead to a quick win if your opponent’s bench is empty.

Mewtwo/Gardevoir

Pokémon

  • Mewtwo ex x2
  • Mewtwo x1
  • Ralts x2
  • Kirlia x2
  • Gardevoir x2

Trainers

  • Giovanni x1
  • Sabrina x1
  • Professor's Research x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Red Card x1

Anti Meta

Pokémon

  • Cubone x2
  • Marowak x1
  • Marowak ex x1
  • Mankey x2
  • Primeape x2
  • Zubat x2
  • Golbat x2

Trainers

  • Sabrina x2
  • Giovanni x1
  • X Speed x1
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

Strong cheap deck Vs the popular Mewtwo and Pikachu decks

Stack deck with only fighting energy as Zubat/Golbat do not require dark energy

Spank The Mankey

Pokémon

  • Mankey x2
  • Primeape x2
  • Dome Fossil x2
  • Kabuto x2
  • Kabutops x2

Trainers

  • Sabrina x1
  • Giovanni x2
  • Professor's Research x2
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x2
  • Poke Ball x1

This deck guarantees Mankey in your opening hand, with Poké Ball available to quickly pull a second Mankey if needed. The Promo Mankey is essential, as its move causes 10 self-damage, allowing for an easy evolution setup that hits for 100 damage per turn with Primape's "Fight Back" attack. While less effective, the Apex Mankey can be substituted until two Promo Mankeys are able to be included. Kabutops serves as an effective staller to build up additional Primape as it is a strong hitter with high self-healing capabilities.

Birb & Snek

Pokémon

  • Ekans x2
  • Arbok x2
  • Pidgey x2
  • Pidgeotto x2
  • Pidgeot x2

Trainers

  • Sabrina x2
  • Giovanni x1
  • Potion x2
  • X Speed x1
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Professor's Research x2

Fun deck that can give you full control of your opponent’s board. Try to start with Ekans to get Arbok out while working toward a Pidgeot on your bench. Pidgeot (and Sabrina if your draws are failing you) can then work to get rid of Pokemon you don’t want to fight, while Arbok can hold the one’s you do until they’re done for. Could also sub in a Drowsee/Hypno to try and sleep as well.
