Metal Dialga Ex
This deck utilizes the synergy between Dialga Ex and the often-underpowered Metal-type Pokémon.
- Meltan x2
- Melmetal x2
- Dialga Ex x2
- Mew Ex
- Heatran
- Tauros
- Dawn x2
- Giovanni x2
- Leaf x2
- Professor’s Research x2
- Poké Ball x2
- Giant Cape x2
Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo ability significantly boosts this deck's consistency. By attaching two Metal Energy to benched Pokémon, you rapidly power up Melmetal. Mew Ex and Tauros, also benefiting from Metallic Turbo, serve as valuable counters. Their Colorless Energy requirements allow for quicker energy attachment while Dialga Ex carries the main offensive load.
Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex Combo
This deck pairs Dialga Ex with Yanmega Ex for a potent Colorless-based strategy.
- Dialga Ex x2
- Yanma x2
- Yanmega Ex x2
- Tauros
- Mew Ex
- Professor’s Research x2
- Poké Ball x2
- Pokémon Communication x2
- Giant Cape x2
- Dawn x2
- Leaf x2
While Yanmega Ex shines in Grass-type decks, its Colorless Energy cost makes it a surprisingly effective partner for Dialga Ex. Yanmega Ex's Air Slash, dealing 120 damage, can quickly eliminate many opponents. The Energy discard penalty is easily mitigated by Dialga Ex's energy acceleration.
Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo makes it a versatile addition to various Colorless decks. While Yanmega Ex is a strong pairing, experimentation with other Colorless attackers like Pidgeot or Pidgeot Ex is encouraged.
These are two excellent starting points for building Dialga Ex decks in Pokémon TCG Pocket. For more in-depth strategies and gameplay tips, check out The Escapist.
