Glaceon Ex's Freezing Wind attack inflicts 90 damage, but its Snowy Terrain ability is its real strength. Snowy Terrain deals 10 damage to the opponent's Active Pokémon during each Pokémon Checkup if Glaceon Ex is active. Since Checkups happen at the start of each player's turn in Pokemon TCG Pocket, this equates to 20 damage per round.
This makes Glaceon Ex a valuable addition to several Water-type decks:
Starmie Ex (Water Energy) Deck
This deck utilizes the synergy between Starmie Ex and Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain to overwhelm opponents.
- 2x Eevee
- 2x Glaceon Ex
- 1x Vaporeon (Mythical Island)
- 2x Staryu
- 2x Starmie Ex
- 1x Palkia Ex
- 2x Professor’s Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Irida
- 2x Misty
- 2x Poké Ball
Starmie Ex's zero retreat cost and Glaceon Ex's low retreat cost allow easy switching. Dawn and Vaporeon (with its Wash Out ability) facilitate efficient energy management. Palkia Ex provides a powerful finisher with Dimensional Storm. Misty offers a chance for lucky wins, while Irida (a new Triumphant Light Supporter) heals Water-energy-attached Pokémon for 40 HP.
Greninja (Water Energy) Deck
This deck focuses on consistent chip damage using Greninja's Water Shuriken and Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain.
- 2x Eevee
- 2x Glaceon Ex
- 2x Froakie
- 2x Frogadier
- 2x Greninja
- 1x Palkia Ex
- 2x Professor’s Research
- 2x Irida
- 2x Misty
- 2x Poké Ball
- 1x Pokémon Communication
Pokémon Communication helps quickly assemble a Greninja line, while Glaceon Ex and Irida provide consistent damage and healing. Misty again offers a chance for surprise victories, and Palkia Ex serves as an energy sink for powerful attacks.
These two decks showcase Glaceon Ex's versatility. Irida's inclusion significantly enhances its strategic potential within the flexible Water-type energy archetype. Expect to see more Glaceon Ex in the Pokemon TCG Pocket meta.
Pokemon TCG Pocket is available now on mobile devices.
