Glaceon Ex packs a punch with its 90-damage Freezing Wind attack. However, its real strength lies in its Snowy Terrain ability, inflicting 10 damage to your opponent's Active Pokémon during each Pokémon Checkup. Since Checkups happen at the start of each player's turn in Pokémon TCG Pocket, this translates to a consistent 20 damage per round. This makes Glaceon Ex a surprisingly versatile addition to several Water-type decks.

Starmie Ex (Water Energy) Deck

This deck focuses on a fast, aggressive strategy.

2x Eevee
2x Glaceon Ex
1x Vaporeon (Mythical Island)
2x Staryu
2x Starmie Ex
1x Palkia Ex
2x Professor’s Research
2x Dawn
2x Irida
2x Misty
2x Poké Ball

This Glaceon Ex deck utilizes Starmie Ex's zero retreat cost and Glaceon Ex's low retreat cost for easy switching and energy sharing, facilitated by Dawn and Vaporeon's Wash Out ability. Vaporeon allows for efficient energy manipulation, powering up Palkia Ex's game-ending Dimensional Storm. Misty adds a chance for lucky wins, while Irida's healing capabilities (40 HP with a Water Energy attached) keep your Pokémon in the fight.

Greninja (Water Energy) Deck

This deck employs a chip-damage strategy.

2x Eevee
2x Glaceon Ex
2x Froakie
2x Frogadier
2x Greninja
1x Palkia Ex
2x Professor’s Research
2x Irida
2x Misty
2x Poké Ball
1x Pokémon Communication

This deck combines Greninja's Water Shuriken with Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain for significant passive damage (40 damage with both active). Pokémon Communication helps you quickly assemble a Greninja line, while Glaceon Ex and Irida provide crucial defense and healing. Misty offers a chance at surprise victories, and Palkia Ex serves as a powerful energy sink.

These two decks highlight Glaceon Ex's adaptability and the power of its Snowy Terrain ability. With Irida's support, Glaceon Ex is poised to become a major player in the Pokémon TCG Pocket meta.
