Celebi EX/Serperior Synergy

This popular deck aims for a swift Serperior deployment. Serperior's Jungle Totem doubles Grass Pokémon Energy, massively boosting Celebi EX's damage potential through increased coin flips. Dhelmise, also benefiting from Jungle Totem, serves as a secondary attacker. While potent, it's vulnerable to Blaine decks. Exeggcute and Exeggcutor EX offer viable alternatives if Dhelmise is unavailable. Key cards include: Snivy, Servine, Serperior, Celebi EX, Dhelmise, Erika, Professor’s Research, Poké Ball, X Speed, Potion, and Sabrina.

Scolipede/Koga Bounce

This enhanced classic utilizes Koga's ability to bounce Weezing back to your hand for a free retreat and strategic repositioning. Whirlipede and Scolipede enhance Poison consistency with Poison Sting. Leaf facilitates Pokémon movement alongside Koga's strategy. The core cards are: Venipede, Whirlipede, Scolipede, Koffing (Mythical Island), Weezing, Mew EX, Koga, Sabrina, Leaf, Professor’s Research, Poké Ball.

Psychic Alakazam

Mew EX provides early game resilience and powerful attacks, allowing time to set up Alakazam. Budding Expeditioner facilitates Mew EX's retreat. Alakazam's Psychic attack excels against the Celebi EX/Serperior combo, dealing increased damage based on attached Energy. This deck includes: Mew EX, Abra, Kadabra, Alakazam, Kangaskhan, Sabrina, Professor’s Research, Poké Ball, X Speed, Potion, and Budding Expeditioner.

Pikachu EX V2

The enduring Pikachu EX deck receives a boost with Dedenne, providing early offense and potential Paralysis. Blue offers defensive support to compensate for Pikachu EX's lower HP. The strategy remains consistent: fill the bench with Electric Pokémon and unleash Pikachu EX. Key cards include: Pikachu EX, Zapdos EX, Blitzle, Zebstrika, Dedenne, Blue, Sabrina, Giovanni, Professor’s Research, Poké Ball, X Speed, and Potion.
