Best Glaceon Ex Decks in Pokemon TCG Pocket

With the introduction of the Triumphant Light expansion in *Pokemon TCG Pocket*, two Eeveelutions, Leafeon Ex and Glaceon Ex, have received the Ex treatment for the first time, bringing new strategies and decks to the forefront. Here's a deep dive into the best Glaceon Ex decks in *Pokemon TCG Pocket* that leverage its unique abilities for competitive advantage.

Best Glaceon Ex Decks in Pokemon TCG Pocket

Glaceon Ex is not just about its 90 damage Freezing Wind attack; it's the Snowy Terrain ability that truly sets it apart. This ability inflicts 10 damage to your opponent’s Active Pokemon during each Pokemon Checkup when Glaceon Ex is in the Active Spot. In *Pokemon TCG Pocket*, a Pokemon Checkup happens at the start of each player’s turn to check for status conditions, effectively making Snowy Terrain deal 20 damage per round. This passive damage accumulation can be a game-changer, allowing Glaceon Ex to fit seamlessly into Water type decks.

Starmie Ex (Water Energy)

  • 2x Eevee
  • 2x Glaceon Ex
  • 1x Vaporeon (Mythical Island)
  • 2x Staryu
  • 2x Starmie Ex
  • 1x Palkia Ex
  • 2x Professor’s Research
  • 2x Dawn
  • 2x Irida
  • 2x Misty
  • 2x Poke Ball

This deck strategy focuses on a swift offensive with Starmie Ex, bolstered by Glaceon Ex’s Snowy Terrain. The no-retreat-cost Starmie Ex and the minimal retreat cost of Glaceon Ex facilitate easy switching and energy sharing with the help of Dawn and a strategic Vaporeon from Mythical Island. Vaporeon's Wash Out ability is key here, allowing you to transfer Water energy freely to your Active Pokemon. A single Palkia Ex can turn the tide with its Dimensional Storm, potentially winning games outright. Misty adds a layer of unpredictability with potential win-stealing flips, while Irida, a new Supporter card from Triumphant Light, provides substantial healing to keep your Pokemon in fighting shape.

Greninja (Water Energy)

  • 2x Eevee
  • 2x Glaceon Ex
  • 2x Froakie
  • 2x Frogadier
  • 2x Greninja
  • 1x Palkia Ex
  • 2x Professor’s Research
  • 2x Irida
  • 2x Misty
  • 2x Poke Ball
  • 1x Pokemon Communication

This deck adopts a different approach, capitalizing on consistent chip damage from Greninja’s Water Shuriken combined with Glaceon Ex’s Snowy Terrain. With both cards in play and Glaceon Ex active, you're looking at 40 passive damage per turn, in addition to their direct attack capabilities. Quick assembly of a Greninja line using Pokemon Communication, supported by Glaceon Ex's passive damage and Irida's healing, can keep you in the game longer. Despite lower energy needs, Misty remains useful for those crucial win-stealing moments, and a single Palkia Ex offers a powerful option for the extra energy you accumulate.

These two Glaceon Ex decks stand out as the best options in *Pokemon TCG Pocket*. With the inclusion of Irida, Glaceon Ex gains even more flexibility within the highly versatile Water type, promising to see a lot of play in the future.

*Pokemon TCG Pocket is available now on mobile devices.*
