The first Eeveelutions to receive Ex forms in Pokemon TCG Pocket are the Generation IV favorites, Leafeon and Glaceon. Both are formidable, but let's dive deeper into the potential of Leafeon. Here's a comprehensive guide to the best Leafeon Ex decks in Pokemon TCG Pocket.
Best Leafeon Ex Decks in Pokemon TCG Pocket
Leafeon Ex's true power lies not in its Solar Beam attack, which deals 70 damage for 3 energy, but in its Forest Breath ability. This ability allows you to attach a Grass energy to one of your Grass-type Pokémon when Leafeon Ex is in the Active Spot.
This ability synergizes exceptionally well with the Mythical Island powerhouse, Celebi Ex, making it a key component in Leafeon Ex decks.
Celebi Ex (Grass Energy)
Pokémon:
- 2x Eevee (Space-Time Smackdown)
- 2x Leafeon Ex
- 2x Celebi
Trainer Cards:
- 2x Professor’s Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Erika
- 1x Sabrina
- 2x Giant’s Cape
- 2x Poké Ball
- 2x Potion
- 1x Pokémon Communication
The strategy with this deck is to position Leafeon Ex in the Active Spot, using Giant’s Cape, Erika, and Potions to keep it alive. Utilize Forest Breath to power up both Leafeon Ex and Celebi Ex. With 140 HP, Leafeon Ex can withstand most aggressive attacks long enough to retreat and set up Celebi Ex with 3-4 energy.
The key is deciding when to power up Leafeon Ex or focus on Celebi Ex, leveraging the energy generated each turn. This straightforward strategy has proven effective with Exeggutor Ex, but the Leafeon Ex version offers greater scalability. Don't hesitate to use Dawn to enhance Celebi Ex's power.

Yanmega Ex (Grass Energy)
Pokémon:
- 2x Eevee (Space-Time Smackdown)
- 2x Leafeon Ex
- 2x Yanma
- 2x Yanmega Ex
Trainer Cards:
- 2x Professor’s Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Erika
- 2x Giant’s Cape
- 2x Potion
- 2x Pokémon Communication
While the Celebi Ex deck is the prime choice for Leafeon Ex, there's potential in pairing it with Yanmega Ex. Yanmega Ex's Air Slash deals 120 damage for 3 Colorless energy, requiring an energy discard post-attack. Leafeon Ex's Forest Breath helps stack energy on Yanmega Ex, enabling consecutive attacks.
Erika helps keep both 140 HP Pokémon alive, but 2x Giant’s Cape is crucial to push them over the 150 HP threshold. This deck adopts a rush-down strategy that could outpace the prevalent Exeggutor Ex decks in the Grass type category.
Although Venusaur Ex might seem like a good match for Leafeon Ex, it's unlikely to outperform the above decks. Therefore, these are the top Pokemon TCG Pocket decks to showcase your new Leafeon Ex.
