- Best Decks in Pokémon TCG Pocket: Mythical Island
- Celebi EX and Serperior Combo
- Scolipede Koga Bounce
- Psychic Alakazam
- Pikachu EX V2
Celebi EX and Serperior Combo
This popular deck aims for a swift Serperior deployment. Serperior's Jungle Totem ability doubles the Energy count on all Grass Pokémon, including Celebi EX, dramatically boosting Celebi EX's attack potential via increased coin flips. Dhelmise, also benefiting from Jungle Totem, serves as a secondary attacker. While highly effective, this deck is vulnerable to Blaine decks. Exeggcute and Exeggcutor EX offer viable alternatives if Dhelmise isn't available.
Deck List:
- 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 the Mythical Island expansion, this deck retains its core strategy: using Koga to bounce Weezing back to your hand for a free retreat and repeated Poison attacks. Whirlipede and Scolipede improve Poison consistency, while Leaf facilitates Pokémon movement.
Deck List:
- 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 inclusion significantly improves this deck's consistency. Mew EX provides early defense and offense, allowing time to set up Alakazam. Budding Expeditioner aids in Mew EX's retreat. Alakazam effectively counters the Celebi EX/Serperior combo due to Psychic's damage scaling with opponent's Energy.
Deck List:
- 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

The Pikachu EX deck remains strong post-Mythical Island, with Dedenne as a new addition providing early offense and Paralysis. Blue offers defensive support to counteract Pikachu EX's low HP. The core strategy remains the same: filling the bench with Electric Pokémon and unleashing Pikachu EX's attacks.
Deck List:
- 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
