Top Glaceon Ex Decks for Pokemon TCG Pocket
The Triumphant Light expansion in *Pokemon TCG Pocket* introduced two new Eeveelutions with the Ex treatment for the first time: Leafeon Ex and Glaceon Ex. Here, we'll dive into the best Glaceon Ex decks that you can build to dominate the game.
Best Glaceon Ex Decks in Pokemon TCG Pocket
Glaceon Ex is a powerhouse with its Freezing Wind attack, dealing 90 damage. However, 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. A Pokemon Checkup in *Pokemon TCG Pocket* occurs at the start of each player's turn, checking for status conditions, which means Snowy Terrain effectively deals 20 damage each round.
This unique ability allows Glaceon Ex to fit seamlessly into various Water type decks. Let's explore two of the best deck builds:
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 focuses on a rapid offensive strategy, leveraging Starmie Ex's no retreat cost and Glaceon Ex's minimal retreat cost to switch between them effortlessly. The synergy between Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain and Starmie Ex's attacks can quickly overwhelm opponents. Dawn and a single Mythical Island Vaporeon with the Wash Out ability help manage energy distribution, allowing you to shift Water energy to your Active Pokemon as needed.
Palkia Ex's Dimensional Storm can clinch games with a single powerful move, while Misty's coin flips can steal victories. Irida, a new Supporter card from Triumphant Light, heals all Pokemon with attached Water energy by 40 health, ensuring your team stays in the fight longer.
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 takes a different approach, focusing on consistent chip damage. Greninja's Water Shuriken ability, combined with Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain, can deal 40 passive damage per turn, in addition to their regular attacks. Use Pokemon Communication to quickly assemble your Greninja line, while Glaceon Ex and Irida provide substantial healing to keep your Pokemon in play.
Despite the low energy requirements, Misty remains a valuable addition for those crucial coin flip victories. Palkia Ex serves as a powerful finisher, utilizing the extra energy accumulated throughout the game.
These are the top Glaceon Ex decks you can build in *Pokemon TCG Pocket*. With the introduction of Irida, Glaceon Ex becomes an incredibly versatile card within the Water type, promising to be a staple in future decks.
*Pokemon TCG Pocket is available now on mobile devices.*
