Celebi EX and Serperior Synergy
This popular deck aims for rapid Serperior deployment. Utilize Serperior's Jungle Totem ability to double the Energy count on all Grass Pokémon (including Celebi EX), dramatically boosting Celebi EX's coin-flip damage potential. Dhelmise serves as a secondary attacker, also benefiting from Jungle Totem. While highly effective, this deck is vulnerable to Blaine decks. Exeggcute and Exeggcutor EX offer viable alternatives if Dhelmise isn't available.
