- Pikachu EX V2
Celebi EX and Serperior Combo
This popular deck aims for a swift Serperior deployment. Its Jungle Totem ability doubles Energy on 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, it's vulnerable to Blaine decks. Exeggcute and Exeggcutor EX offer viable alternatives if you lack Dhelmise.
Decklist: 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 enhanced classic relies on Koga's ability to bounce Weezing back to your hand for a free retreat and strategic repositioning, while simultaneously building up Poison effects. Whirlipede and Scolipede bolster Poison consistency with Poison Sting. Leaf facilitates Pokémon movement, complementing Koga's strategy.
Decklist: 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 provides early game tankiness and strategic options (Psyshot and Genome Hacking) while you set up Alakazam. Budding Expeditioner aids Mew EX's retreat. Crucially, Alakazam counters the Celebi EX/Serperior combo, dealing increased Psychic damage based on the opponent's attached Energy (including those boosted by Jungle Totem).
Decklist: 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
This enduring deck benefits from the addition of Dedenne, providing early offense and potential Paralysis. Its lower HP remains a weakness, mitigated somewhat by Blue's defensive capabilities. The core strategy remains consistent: fill the bench with Electric Pokémon and unleash Pikachu EX.
Decklist: 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
These are some of the strongest decks in the Pokémon TCG Pocket Mythical Island meta. Consult The Escapist for further game strategies and information.
