Dialga Ex dominates the Pokémon TCG Pocket Space-Time Smackdown expansion, boasting its own powerful deck archetypes. Here are two top-tier Dialga Ex deck builds to start with:
Table of Contents
- Metal Dialga Ex
- Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex Combo
Metal Dialga Ex
This deck leverages Dialga Ex's synergy with Metal-type Pokémon, addressing past weaknesses.
- 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 the deck's consistency. It allows for rapid energy attachment to benched Pokémon, accelerating the setup of Melmetal. Mew Ex and Tauros act as valuable counters, also benefiting from the quick energy acceleration provided by Metallic Turbo. Their attacks primarily require Colorless Energy, making them efficient alongside Dialga Ex.
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 requirement makes it a surprisingly effective partner for Dialga Ex. Yanmega Ex's Air Slash inflicts 120 damage, capable of one-shotting many opponents. The energy discard penalty is easily mitigated by Dialga Ex's energy acceleration.
Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo makes it adaptable to various Colorless decks. While Yanmega Ex proves a strong partner, experimenting with other Colorless attackers like Pidgeot or Pidgeot Ex could yield promising results.
These are two excellent starting points for building Dialga Ex decks in Pokémon TCG Pocket. For more gaming strategies and insights, check out The Escapist.
