Pokémon TCG Pocket Best Darkrai ex Decks Darkrai ex/Weavile ex Darkrai ex Koga Bounce

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 when moving Energy synergizes perfectly with Dawn, facilitating Energy manipulation. Weavile ex then capitalizes on this weakened opponent, dealing increased damage. This Darkrai ex/Weavile ex combination proves highly effective in the current Pokémon TCG Pocket meta, enabling rapid deck building and swiftly overcoming slower setups.

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, a favorite from the Genetic Apex era, is more complex but equally powerful. Weezing's poison inflicts gradual damage, while Koga's Trap resets the board when needed. Dawn facilitates Pokémon movement, softening opponents for Darkrai ex's finishing blow. The minimal Energy requirements for Weezing and Spiritomb allow for consistent Darkrai ex damage boosts.
