Pokémon TCG's Best Decks Dominate Space-Time Smackdown

Space-Time Smackdown: Top Pokémon TCG Pocket Decks to Build First

The Pokémon TCG Pocket Space-Time Smackdown expansion significantly alters the meta. Here are the best decks to prioritize building:

Table of Contents

• Darkrai Ex/Weavile Ex
• Metal Dialga Ex
• Yanmega/Exeggutor
• Pachirisu Ex

Darkrai Ex/Weavile Ex

This deck utilizes:

• Sneasel x2
• Weavile Ex x2
• Murkrow x2
• Honchkrow x2
• Darkrai Ex x2
• Dawn x2
• Cyrus's Conspiracy x2
• Professor's Research x2
• Poké Ball x2
• Great Cape x2

Dawn, a new Supporter card, is key. Its ability to shift Energy from the Bench to the Active Pokémon synergizes powerfully with Darkrai Ex's damage-boosting ability (activated by Energy movement). Weavile Ex adds further damage to already weakened opponents. Murkrow and Honchkrow provide supplementary attacks during setup.

Metal Dialga Ex

This deck features:

• Meltan x2
• Melmetal x2
• Dialga Ex x2
• Mew Ex
• Heatran
• Tauros
• Dawn
• Giovanni's Scheme x2
• Cyrus's Conspiracy x2
• Professor's Research x2
• Poké Ball x2
• Giant Cape x2

Dialga Ex enhances the previously struggling Metal-type archetype. Metallic Turbo allows rapid Energy attachment to Melmetal. Mew Ex and Tauros act as counters, also benefiting from Metallic Turbo's speed.

Yanmega/Exeggutor

This deck includes:

• Exeggcute (GA) x2
• Exeggutor Ex x2
• Yanma x2
• Yanmega Ex x2
• Mew Ex
• Erika's Hospitality x2
• Cyrus's Conspiracy x2
• Professor's Research x2
• Poké Ball x2
• Rocky Helmet x2
• Pokémon Communication

Exeggutor Ex remains a star, complemented by the consistent attacking power of Yanmega Ex. Erika's Hospitality provides crucial healing, while Rocky Helmet adds defensive resilience.

Pachirisu Ex

This decklist focuses on maximizing Pachirisu Ex's capabilities:

• Pachirisu Ex x2
• Mew Ex
• Zapdos Ex x2
• Cyrus's Conspiracy
• Giovanni's Scheme
• Professor's Research x2
• Poké Ball x2
• Rocky Helmet x2
• Giant Cape x2
• Lum Berry
• X Speed x2
• Potion x2

The deck's streamlined Pokémon count emphasizes Pachirisu Ex's high damage output with attached Tools (Giant Cape and Rocky Helmet boost its survivability). Zapdos Ex offers reliable backup attacks.
