Darkrai ex/Weavile ex

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

Darkrai ex's ability to inflict an extra 20 damage by moving Energy synergizes perfectly with Dawn, facilitating Energy manipulation. Weavile ex then capitalizes on this pre-weakened opponent, dealing amplified damage.

This Darkrai ex/Weavile ex combination proves highly effective in the current Pokémon TCG Pocket meta. Its rapid setup and aggressive damage output overwhelm 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

This deck, reminiscent of the popular Genetic Apex Koga deck, is more complex but equally powerful. Weezing inflicts gradual poison damage, while Koga's Trap resets the board when needed. Dawn aids Pokémon repositioning, setting up Darkrai ex for devastating attacks.

The advantage here is that Weezing and Spiritomb require minimal Energy, allowing for consistent Darkrai ex power boosts.
