Darkrai ex's ability to inflict an extra 20 damage when moving Energy synergizes perfectly with Dawn, facilitating Energy manipulation. Weavile ex then capitalizes on this weakened opponent, dealing increased damage.
This Darkrai ex/Weavile ex combination is currently a dominant force in the Pokémon TCG Pocket meta. Its rapid setup and aggressive damage output easily overcome decks requiring longer setup times.
Darkrai ex Koga Bounce
- Koffing (GA) x2
- Weezing x2
- Spiritomb
- Darkrai ex x2
- Professor's Research x2
- Poké Ball x2
- Potion
- Cyrus's Initiative x2
- Dawn x2

This deck, reminiscent of the popular Genetic Apex Koga deck, is more complex to master but highly effective. Weezing inflicts gradual poison damage, while Koga provides crucial resets when needed. Dawn aids Pokémon repositioning. The strategy revolves around weakening opponents with poison before delivering the final blow with Darkrai ex.
A key advantage is that Weezing and Spiritomb require minimal Energy, allowing for consistent Energy allocation to Darkrai ex for maximized damage.
