- Voltorb x2, Electrode x2
- Trainers: Poke Ball x2, Potion x2, Sabrina x2, Giovanni x1
- Pros: Strong early game, simple to play, counters water decks.
- Cons: Low durability and reliance on luck for key attacks.
2. Charizard ex Deck
- Strategy: A powerhouse deck built around Charizard ex's Crimson Storm attack, capable of knocking out opposing ex Pokémon in one turn. Requires careful energy management.
- Key Cards:
- Charizard ex x2
- Charmeleon x2, Charizard x2

- Strategy: Focuses on spreading damage across the opponent’s Pokémon while amplifying attacks against already damaged targets.
- Key Cards:
- Weavile ex x2, Darkrai ex x2
- Spiritomb x2
- Trainers: Rocky Helmet x2, Cyrus x2
- Pros: Effective against multiple Pokémon simultaneously; consistent damage output.

- Key Cards:
- Marowak ex x2, Dugtrio x2
- Trainers: X Speed x2, Giovanni x2
- Pros: Good counter to Electric decks; easy to build.
- Cons: Weak late game; highly dependent on coin flips.
5. Mewtwo ex Deck
- Strategy: Uses Gardevoir to stack Energy on Mewtwo ex for continuous use of its Psydrive attack. Free-to-play alternatives include Weezing instead of Gardevoir.
- Key Cards:
- Mewtwo ex x2, Gardevoir line (Ralts/Kirlia/Gardevoir)
- Trainers: Red Card x1, Poke Ball x2
- Pros: Consistent energy acceleration; versatile setup options.
- Cons: Takes time to set up; weaker without Gardevoir.
Budget-Friendly Options
Marowak EX/Sandslash Deck
This deck is ideal for beginners or players with limited resources. It leverages Marowak EX's Bonemerang attack for burst damage while using Sandslash as a backup attacker.
Summary of Current Meta Trends
The current meta emphasizes aggressive early-game strategies and powerful EX cards like Charizard ex and Pikachu ex. However, decks like Weavile/Darkrai excel at spreading damage for a more strategic approach. Budget-friendly options such as Marowak EX remain viable counters to popular Electric-type decks.
