Darkrai ex's ability to inflict an extra 20 damage when moving Energy synergizes perfectly with Dawn, facilitating Energy manipulation. Weavile ex then capitalizes on this weakened opponent, dealing amplified damage.
This Darkrai ex/Weavile ex combination is currently dominant in the Pokémon TCG Pocket meta due to its rapid setup and ability to swiftly overcome decks requiring longer setup times.
Darkrai ex Koga Bounce
- Koffing (GA) x2
- Weezing x2
- Spiritomb
- Darkrai ex x2
- Professor's Research x2
- Poké Ball x2
- Potion
- Cyrus's Initiative x2
- Dawn x2
- Giant Cape x2
- Koga's Trap x2
A personal favorite reminiscent of the Genetic Apex era, this deck's complexity is its strength. Weezing inflicts gradual poison damage, while Koga's Trap resets the board when necessary. Dawn aids Pokémon repositioning, allowing for strategic poison damage buildup before unleashing Darkrai ex's attacks. Weezing and Spiritomb's low Energy requirements ensure ample Energy for Darkrai ex.
