Best Decks in Pokémon TCG Pocket: Mythical Island

Celebi EX and Serperior Combo

This popular deck aims for a swift Serperior deployment, leveraging its Jungle Totem ability to double the Energy on all Grass Pokémon (including Celebi EX). This boosts Celebi EX's coin flip-based damage output dramatically. Dhelmise serves as a secondary attacker, also benefiting from Jungle Totem. While highly effective, it's vulnerable to Blaine decks. Exeggcute and Exeggcutor EX can substitute for Dhelmise if needed.

  • 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

Scolipede Koga Bounce

Enhanced by Mythical Island, this deck retains its core strategy: using Koga to bounce Weezing back to your hand for a free retreat and consistent Poison damage. Whirlipede and Scolipede improve Poison application, while Leaf aids Pokémon movement.

  • 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

Psychic Alakazam

Mew EX's addition significantly improves Alakazam's consistency. Mew EX provides early-game defense and attack options, buying time to set up Alakazam. Budding Expeditioner facilitates Mew EX's retreat. Alakazam counters the Celebi EX/Serperior combo due to its Psychic attack scaling with opponent's Energy.

  • 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

Pikachu EX V2

Pikachu EX V2 Deck

The enduring Pikachu EX deck receives a boost with Dedenne, offering early-game offense and potential Paralysis. Blue provides defensive support to offset Pikachu EX's low HP. The core strategy remains: fill the bench with Electric Pokémon and unleash Pikachu EX.

  • 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

These are some of the strongest decks in the Pokémon TCG Pocket Mythical Island meta. Check out The Escapist for further game tips and information.
