But the card’s delightful versatility has positioned it ever higher.
Our preferred approach to theLeafeon exdeck is to pair it with another ex -Yanmega ex.
This meansa pair of single-evolution Basic Pokemoncomprise the entirety of your creature stockpile, leaving12 Trainer cardsat your disposal.
That’s a lot to work with, of course, and this decklist makes the most of it.
Everything else runs on Colourless, so Water slots in just fine.
Put plainly, then, this is unparalleled bulk.
You’re not mixingErikawith a pair of Potions.
Alternative Cards
There are plenty of other viable builds for Leafeon ex.
The most popular among them pairs Leafeon ex withCelebi ex.
Some suggest just one Celebi ex, while others roll with two.
Either way,you’ll have even more Trainer Card slots available than our favourite version does.
Personally, we tend to avoid chance-based attacks.
That’s just us, though.There’s no denying that Celebi extypicallyperforms quite strongly with Leafeon ex.
Some players also useShaymin.
Well, you know.
Unless it’s knocked out.
Therein lies the rub, really.
So, which legendary Pokemon are the most powerful in Pokemon Pocket?
Let’s find out.
Yanma’sFlapinstead hits fora guaranteed 20 damage.
Hook aGiant Capeto your opener.
On turn three, you will able to attach Energy for the first time.
Have Leafeon use Forest Breath on itselfin conjunction with the Energy attachment.
Suffice it to say, you may go second.
Or you may have Yanma to start out with.
Whatever the case may be,work on getting Leafeon ex out there ASAP.
The deck truly comes online once Leafeon is out there; that’s the crux here.
The Goal
Once Leafeon ex is in prime position, the magic happens.
It’s undeniable thatSolar Beam’s 70 damage isn’t impressivein its own right.
But think of it this way.
Yanmega ex is your heavy hitter.
Forthree Colourless Energy, its attack,Air Slash, deals an eye-opening120 damage.
Which can always happen, but you’ll be prepared for plenty of problems.
Grass cards don’t standout dramatically in Triumphant Light, but many are underrated and under the radar.
Matchups And Counters
For every solid deck, there are dreams and disasters.
Best Matches
If you’re lucky,you’ll be up against a Darkrai ex deck.
The thing is, Darkrai ex, like severalDarkness-bang out Pokemonintroduced in Space-Time Smackdown, isnot weak to Fighting.
It is, in fact,weak to Grass.
That gave Grass-types a handsome comeback, but there wasn’t a fresh frontrunnerto pit against the Pitch-Black Pokemon.
It’ll do the same toWeavile ex, one of Darkrai ex’s boon companions.
Even if they have Giant Capes, they’re perilously close to incapacitation afterward.
There are other great match-ups to consider.
The former becauseLeafeon ex is weak to Fire; the latter becauseYanmega ex is weak to Lightning.
Infernape ex’s own attack, which costs just two Fire Energy, will flat-out K.O.
Leafeon ex even with a Giant Cape attached.
That’d rather spoil the fun, besides.
But Leafeon ex, as of this writing, numbers among the best of the best.
