Leafeon Ex: Mastering the Best Decks in Pokémon TCG Pocket
The Generation IV Eeveelutions, Leafeon and Glaceon, are the first to receive Ex forms in Pokémon TCG Pocket. While both are formidable, this guide focuses on optimizing Leafeon Ex. Here's a breakdown of top-performing Leafeon Ex decks.

Leafeon Ex's power doesn't lie in its Solar Beam attack (70 damage for 3 Grass Energy), but in its potent Forest Breath ability. Forest Breath allows you to attach a Grass Energy to a Grass-type Pokémon while Leafeon Ex is active.
This ability creates powerful synergies, primarily with Celebi Ex and Yanmega Ex.
The Celebi Ex Strategy (Grass Energy Focus)
This deck leverages Leafeon Ex's ability to fuel both Leafeon Ex and Celebi Ex.
- 2x Eevee (Space-Time Smackdown)
- 2x Leafeon Ex
- 2x Celebi Ex
- 2x Professor’s Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Erika
- 1x Sabrina
- 2x Giant’s Cape
- 2x Poké Ball
- 2x Potion
- 1x Pokémon Communication
The strategy centers on maintaining Leafeon Ex in the active spot, utilizing Giant's Cape, Erika, and Potions for survivability. Forest Breath simultaneously powers up both Leafeon Ex and Celebi Ex. Leafeon Ex's 140 HP provides sufficient time to retreat and unleash a high-energy Celebi Ex. Strategic use of Dawn further enhances Celebi Ex's power. This approach builds upon successful Exeggutor Ex strategies, offering enhanced scaling potential.
The Yanmega Ex Approach (Aggressive Strategy)
This deck utilizes a faster, more aggressive strategy.
- 2x Eevee (Space-Time Smackdown)
- 2x Leafeon Ex
- 2x Yanma
- 2x Yanmega Ex
- 2x Professor’s Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Erika
- 2x Giant’s Cape
- 2x Potion
- 2x Pokémon Communication
Here, Leafeon Ex supports Yanmega Ex's Air Slash (120 damage for 3 Colorless Energy, discarding an energy after use). Forest Breath ensures consistent energy supply for back-to-back Yanmega Ex attacks. Erika and Giant's Cape (2x for crucial HP boost) maintain the survival of both Pokémon. This deck aims to overwhelm opponents with speed.
While other combinations, such as Leafeon Ex with Venusaur Ex, are possible, the Celebi Ex and Yanmega Ex decks demonstrate the most effective utilization of Leafeon Ex's unique abilities in Pokémon TCG Pocket.
Pokémon TCG Pocket is available now on mobile devices.
