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 weakened opponents, dealing amplified damage. This combination proves highly effective in the current Pokémon TCG Pocket meta, offering a rapid build-up and overwhelming decks with 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

This deck, a refined version of a Genetic Apex favorite, is more complex but equally powerful. The strategy involves using Weezing's poison for consistent chip damage, while Koga's Trap resets the board when necessary. Dawn facilitates Pokémon movement, allowing for strategic positioning before Darkrai ex delivers the final blow. The low Energy requirements of Weezing and Spiritomb maximize Energy allocation to Darkrai ex for maximized damage output.
