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 additional damage.
This Darkrai ex/Weavile ex combination is currently highly effective in the Pokémon TCG Pocket meta. Its rapid setup outpaces many decks requiring longer preparation.

This deck, reminiscent of the Genetic Apex Koga deck, is more complex to play but equally powerful. The strategy involves chipping away at the opponent's health with Weezing's poison, using Koga to reset when necessary, and leveraging Dawn for Pokémon positioning. Darkrai ex delivers the final blow.
Weezing and Spiritomb's low Energy requirements allow for consistent Energy allocation to Darkrai ex, maximizing damage output.
