With the launch of the Triumphant Light expansion in *Pokemon TCG Pocket*, two Eeveelutions have been spotlighted with their Ex versions for the first time: Leafeon Ex and Glaceon Ex. Here's a detailed look at the most effective Glaceon Ex decks in the game, focusing on how to leverage Glaceon Ex's unique abilities to dominate your opponents.
Glaceon Ex packs a punch with its Freezing Wind attack, dealing 90 damage. But the real game-changer is its Snowy Terrain ability. This ability inflicts 10 damage to your opponent's Active Pokémon during each Pokémon Checkup when Glaceon Ex is in the Active Spot. A Pokémon Checkup in *Pokemon TCG Pocket* occurs at the start of each player's turn to check for status conditions, effectively making Snowy Terrain deal 20 damage each round. This continuous damage can be a game-changer in the right deck.
This deck focuses on a quick offensive with Starmie Ex, enhanced by Glaceon Ex’s Snowy Terrain. Both Starmie Ex and Glaceon Ex have low retreat costs, making it easy to switch between them and efficiently manage energy with Dawn and a strategic Vaporeon from Mythical Island. Vaporeon’s Wash Out ability lets you transfer Water energy to your Active Pokémon, which synergizes well with Palkia Ex's Dimensional Storm for potential instant victories. Misty adds an element of luck with her coin flip wins, while Irida's healing ability keeps your Pokémon in fighting shape.
This deck emphasizes consistent chip damage, combining Greninja’s Water Shuriken with Glaceon Ex’s Snowy Terrain. With both cards active, you're dealing an additional 40 passive damage per turn, on top of their regular attacks. Use Pokémon Communication to quickly evolve your Froakie line into Greninja, while Glaceon Ex and Irida provide substantial healing to keep your team in the fight. Despite the low energy needs, Misty remains a valuable addition for those crucial coin flip victories, and Palkia Ex serves as a powerful energy sink for late-game plays.
These are the top Glaceon Ex decks you can build in *Pokemon TCG Pocket*. With the introduction of Irida, Glaceon Ex becomes an incredibly versatile card within the Water type, promising a bright future for this icy Eeveelution in competitive play.
