In the latest Pokemon TCG Pocket expansion, Triumphant Light, two Eeveelutions have been given the Ex treatment for the first time: Leafeon Ex and Glaceon Ex. Here's a detailed look at the best Glaceon Ex decks that can help you 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. When Glaceon Ex is in the Active Spot, Snowy Terrain inflicts 10 damage to your opponent’s Active Pokemon during each Pokemon Checkup. In Pokemon TCG Pocket, a Pokemon Checkup happens at the start of each player’s turn to check for status conditions, effectively allowing Snowy Terrain to deal 20 damage each round.
This ability makes Glaceon Ex a versatile card that can be integrated into various Water type decks:
Starmie Ex Deck (Water Energy)
Pokémon:
- 2x Eevee
- 2x Glaceon Ex
- 1x Vaporeon (Mythical Island)
- 2x Staryu
- 2x Starmie Ex
- 1x Palkia Ex
Trainers:
- 2x Professor’s Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Irida
- 2x Misty
- 2x Poke Ball
This deck focuses on a quick offensive strategy, utilizing Starmie Ex alongside Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain. Starmie Ex's zero retreat cost and Glaceon Ex's minimal retreat cost allow for easy switching between the two, while Dawn and a single Mythical Island Vaporeon facilitate energy sharing. Vaporeon's Wash Out ability enables you to transfer Water energy to your Active Pokemon, which synergizes well with Palkia Ex's Dimensional Storm for potential one-hit knockouts. Misty adds a chance for lucky wins, and Irida's healing capability keeps your Pokémon in the fight longer.

Greninja Deck (Water Energy)
Pokémon:
- 2x Eevee
- 2x Glaceon Ex
- 2x Froakie
- 2x Frogadier
- 2x Greninja
- 1x Palkia Ex
Trainers:
- 2x Professor’s Research
- 2x Irida
- 2x Misty
- 2x Poke Ball
- 1x Pokemon Communication
This deck emphasizes consistent chip damage, combining Greninja's Water Shuriken ability with Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain. With both cards active, you can deal 40 passive damage per turn on top of their strong attacks. Use Pokemon Communication to quickly assemble your Greninja line, while Glaceon Ex and Irida provide defensive support through healing. Misty remains useful for surprise victories, and Palkia Ex serves as an energy sink for a powerful finish.
These are the top Glaceon Ex decks to build in Pokemon TCG Pocket. With Irida's inclusion, Glaceon Ex becomes incredibly versatile within the Water energy type, promising to be a staple in future meta decks.
