Glaceon Ex boasts a powerful 90 damage Freezing Wind attack. However, its real strength lies in its Snowy Terrain ability, which inflicts 10 damage on your opponent's Active Pokémon during each Pokémon Checkup if Glaceon Ex is active. A Pokémon Checkup happens at the start of each player's turn, effectively dealing 20 damage per round. This passive damage makes Glaceon Ex incredibly versatile.
Here are two strong deck builds that leverage Glaceon Ex's unique ability:
Starmie Ex (Water Energy)
- 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
This deck focuses on aggressive attacks using Starmie Ex's zero retreat cost and Glaceon Ex's low retreat cost, allowing easy switching and energy sharing via Dawn. Vaporeon's Wash Out ability provides crucial energy manipulation for Palkia Ex's game-ending Dimensional Storm. Misty adds a chance for lucky wins, while Irida (from Triumphant Light) offers significant healing (40 HP to Water-type Pokémon).
Greninja (Water Energy)
- 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
This deck utilizes a different strategy, combining Greninja's Water Shuriken with Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain for consistent chip damage. With both Pokémon active and Glaceon Ex in the Active Spot, you deal a significant 40 passive damage. Pokémon Communication helps assemble a Greninja line quickly, while Irida provides substantial healing. Misty remains for potential lucky victories, and Palkia Ex serves as a powerful energy sink.
These two decks highlight Glaceon Ex's adaptability within the Water-type archetype. The addition of Irida makes Glaceon Ex even more potent, promising a strong presence in the Pokémon TCG Pocket meta.
