In *Pokemon TCG Pocket*, the first Eeveelutions to receive Ex forms are the Generation IV stars, Leafeon and Glaceon. While both are formidable, this guide delves into the best Leafeon Ex decks, showcasing how to maximize this powerful Grass-type Pokémon's potential.
Best Leafeon Ex Decks in Pokemon TCG Pocket
Leafeon Ex shines not just with its Solar Beam attack, which deals 70 damage for 3 energy, but primarily through its Forest Breath ability. This ability allows you to attach a Grass energy to one of your Grass-type Pokémon when Leafeon Ex is in the Active Spot, making it a crucial asset for energy acceleration in your deck.
Celebi Ex (Grass Energy)
The synergy between Leafeon Ex and Celebi Ex is unbeatable. Here's a deck list that capitalizes on this combination:
- 2x Eevee (Space-Time Smackdown)
- 2x Leafeon Ex
- 2x Celebi
- 2x Professor’s Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Erika
- 1x Sabrina
- 2x Giant’s Cape
- 2x Poké Ball
- 2x Potion
- 1x Pokémon Communication
The strategy here is to position Leafeon Ex in the Active Spot and keep it alive using Giant’s Cape, Erika, and Potions. Use Forest Breath to power up both Leafeon Ex and Celebi Ex. With 140 HP, Leafeon Ex can withstand most aggressive attacks long enough to retreat and set up Celebi Ex with 3-4 energy. The key is knowing when to power up Leafeon Ex or focus on Celebi Ex. This approach has been successful with Exeggutor Ex, but this version offers even greater scalability. Utilize Dawn to further empower Celebi Ex.

Yanmega Ex (Grass Energy)
Although less common, Yanmega Ex can form a dynamic duo with Leafeon Ex. Here’s the deck list:
- 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
Yanmega Ex’s Air Slash inflicts 120 damage for 3 Colorless energy but requires discarding an energy post-attack. Leafeon Ex's Forest Breath can stack energy on Yanmega Ex, enabling consecutive attacks. Erika keeps both 140 HP Pokémon alive, while 2x Giant’s Cape boosts them past the critical 150 HP threshold. This deck employs a rush-down strategy that might outpace the dominant Exeggutor Ex decks.
While other combinations, like Venusaur Ex with Leafeon Ex, might seem promising, they are unlikely to outperform the Celebi Ex and Yanmega Ex decks. Therefore, these are the best *Pokemon TCG Pocket* decks to showcase your new Leafeon Ex.
