Metal Dialga Ex
This deck utilizes the synergy between Dialga Ex and Metal-type Pokémon, addressing past weaknesses.

- Mew Ex
- Heatran
- Tauros
- Dawn x2
- Giovanni x2

Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo ability significantly boosts the deck's consistency. By attaching two Metal Energy to benched Pokémon, it accelerates the setup of Melmetal. Mew Ex and Tauros, also benefiting from Metallic Turbo, serve as effective counters. Their Colorless Energy requirements allow for rapid deployment while Dialga Ex carries the main offensive load.
Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex Combo
This deck pairs Dialga Ex with Yanmega Ex, leveraging their Colorless Energy compatibility.
- Dialga Ex x2
- Yanma x2
- Yanmega Ex x2
- Tauros
- Mew Ex
- Professor’s Research x2
- Poke Ball x2
- Pokemon Communication x2
- Giant Cape x2
- Dawn x2
- Leaf x2
Yanmega Ex's Air Slash, dealing 120 damage, can quickly eliminate many opponents. The energy discard penalty is easily mitigated by Dialga Ex's energy acceleration. While Yanmega Ex is a strong partner, Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo makes it adaptable to other Colorless decks, such as those featuring Pidgeot or Pidgeot Ex. Experimentation is encouraged.
