The Darkrai Ex/Weavile Ex deck is a powerhouse, with the new Supporter card, Dawn, playing a pivotal role. Dawn allows you to move one Energy from a Benched Pokemon to an Active Pokemon, a crucial ability in *Pokemon TCG Pocket* where Energy management can make or break your game. When you move Energy to Darkrai Ex, it can deal an additional 20 damage to the opponent’s Active Pokemon, setting up a devastating follow-up attack from Weavile Ex, which excels at targeting already damaged Pokemon. Murkrow and Honchkrow provide solid backup, ensuring you have consistent attackers while building your bench.

Metal-type Pokemon have had their ups and downs in *Pokemon TCG Pocket*, but the introduction of Dialga Ex in Space-Time Smackdown could mark their resurgence. Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo ability lets you attach two Metal Energy to your Benched Pokemon, speeding up your transition to Melmetal. Including Mew Ex and Tauros as counters, especially with Tauros benefiting from Metallic Turbo, adds versatility and strength to this deck.

Grass-type decks have been on the rise since Celebi Ex's introduction in Mythical Island, but Exeggutor Ex remains the star. With Yanmega Ex joining the fray, this deck continues to shine. Yanmega Ex's consistent 120 damage with Air Slash, combined with Exeggutor Ex's frontline capabilities, makes for a formidable duo. Erika's healing and the new Rocky Helmet add layers of strategy and defense, ensuring this deck's staying power.

Zapdos Ex provides reliable backup, allowing you to build your bench and wait for the right draws.
