Dialga Ex Devastates Pocket TCG

Dialga Ex dominates the Pokemon TCG Pocket Space-Time Smackdown expansion, boasting its own powerful deck archetypes. Here are two top-tier Dialga Ex deck builds to start with:

Table of Contents

  • Metal Dialga Ex
  • Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex Combo

Metal Dialga Ex

This deck leverages the synergy between Dialga Ex and the often-underpowered Metal-type Pokemon, Meltan and Melmetal.

  • Meltan x2
  • Melmetal x2
  • Dialga Ex x2
  • Mew Ex
  • Heatran
  • Tauros
  • Dawn x2
  • Giovanni x2
  • Leaf x2
  • Professor’s Research x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Giant Cape x2

Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo ability significantly boosts this deck's consistency. By attaching two Metal Energy to benched Pokemon, it accelerates the setup of Melmetal. Mew Ex and Tauros, also included, benefit from this rapid energy acceleration, with their attacks requiring only Colorless Energy.

Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex Combo

This deck pairs Dialga Ex with Yanmega Ex, creating a formidable Colorless-based strategy.

  • Dialga Ex x2
  • Yanma x2
  • Yanmega Ex x2
  • Tauros
  • Mew Ex
  • Professor’s Research x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Pokemon Communication x2
  • Giant Cape x2
  • Dawn x2
  • Leaf x2

Yanmega Ex's Air Slash, dealing 120 damage, can quickly eliminate many opponents. While it necessitates discarding an Energy, Dialga Ex readily replenishes it via Metallic Turbo. The Colorless energy requirement of Yanmega Ex makes it a particularly effective partner for Dialga Ex. Experimentation with other strong Colorless attackers like Pidgeot or Pidgeot Ex is also encouraged.

Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo proves versatile, potentially enhancing various Colorless decks. While Yanmega Ex provides a strong Colorless pairing, exploring other options is worthwhile. For more Pokemon TCG Pocket strategies and insights, check out The Escapist.
