Dominate the Pokémon TCG Pocket Mythical Island Meta with These Top Decks!
The Pokémon TCG Pocket Mythical Island mini-expansion has significantly altered the meta. To help you stay ahead, here are some of the best deck builds:
Table of Contents
This popular deck aims for a rapid Serperior deployment. Serperior's Jungle Totem ability doubles the Energy count on all Grass Pokémon, including Celebi Ex, dramatically increasing Celebi Ex's attack potential through boosted coin flips. Dhelmise serves as a strong secondary attacker, also benefiting from Jungle Totem. While highly effective, it's vulnerable to Blaine decks. Exeggcute and Exeggcutor Ex offer viable alternatives if Dhelmise isn't available.
Suggested Cards: Snivy x2, Servine x2, Serperior x2, Celebi Ex x2, Dhelmise x2, Erika x2, Professor’s Research x2, Poké Ball x2, X Speed x2, Potion x2, Sabrina x2
This upgraded classic utilizes Koga's ability to bounce Weezing back to your hand for a free retreat and strategic repositioning, while simultaneously setting up for another Poison attack. Whirlipede and Scolipede enhance the Poison effect's consistency. Leaf facilitates Pokémon movement in conjunction with Koga.
Suggested Cards: Venipede x2, Whirlepede x2, Scolipede x2, Koffing (Mythical Island) x2, Weezing x2, Mew Ex, Koga x2, Sabrina x2, Leaf x2, Professor’s Research x2, Poké Ball x2
Mew Ex provides a sturdy early-game presence and offers both Psyshot and Genome Hacking for defense and strategic stalling. This buys time to deploy Alakazam, with Budding Expeditioner facilitating Mew Ex's retreat. Alakazam effectively counters the Celebi Ex/Serperior combo due to Psychic's damage scaling with opponent's attached Energy, even factoring in Jungle Totem.
Suggested Cards: Mew Ex x2, Abra x2, Kadabra x2, Alakazam x2, Kangaskhan x2, Sabrina x2, Professor’s Research x2, Poké Ball x2, X Speed x2, Potion, Budding Expeditioner

The enduring Pikachu Ex deck receives a boost with Dedenne, providing an effective early attacker and potential Paralysis. Pikachu Ex's low HP is mitigated by Blue, offering defensive support. The core strategy remains consistent: fill the bench with Electric Pokémon and unleash Pikachu Ex's power.
Suggested Cards: Pikachu Ex x2, Zapdos Ex x2, Blitzle x2, Zebstrika x2, Dedenne x2, Blue, Sabrina, Giovanni, Professor’s Research x2, Poké Ball x2, X Speed, Potion x2
