Top Glaceon Ex Deck Strategies in Pokémon TCG Pocket
While Glaceon Ex deals 90 damage with Freezing Wind, its true power lies in the Snowy Terrain ability. When active, this ability automatically deals 10 damage to opposing Active Pokémon during every status check.
For those unfamiliar, Pokémon Checkups occur at the start of each player's turn when the game evaluates status conditions. This timing means Snowy Terrain effectively delivers 20 damage per full game round.
This potent ability makes Glaceon Ex compatible with several powerful Water-type archetypes:
Starmie Ex Water Energy Deck
2x Eevee 2x Glaceon Ex 1x Vaporeon (Mythical Island) 2x Staryu 2x Starmie Ex 1x Palkia Ex 2x Professor’s Research 2x Dawn 2x Irida 2x Misty 2x Poke Ball
This aggressive deck leverages Starmie Ex's mobility alongside Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain. With minimal retreat costs and Dawn/Irida support, energy management becomes effortless. The inclusion of Mythical Island Vaporeon enables devastating energy transfers via its Wash Out ability.
Palkia Ex serves as a game-ending threat with Dimensional Storm, while Misty adds disruptive potential through coin-flip mechanics. Opponents will struggle against this relentless combination.
The new Triumphant Light Supporter Irida provides exceptional sustainability, healing Water-energy Pokémon for 40 HP each use.

Greninja Water Energy Deck
2x Eevee 2x Glaceon Ex 2x Froakie 2x Frogadier 2x Greninja 1x Palkia Ex 2x Professor’s Research 2x Irida 2x Misty 2x Poke Ball 1x Pokemon Communication
This alternative build combines Greninja's Water Shuriken with Snowy Terrain for consistent chip damage. With both abilities active, you'll deal 40 passive damage per turn alongside powerful attacks.
Pokémon Communication ensures swift Greninja evolution while Glaceon Ex and Irida maintain board presence. Despite lower energy needs, Misty provides disruption potential, and Palkia Ex remains a valuable energy sink.
These premier Glaceon Ex decks showcase incredible versatility within Pokémon TCG Pocket's Water-type meta. With Irida's introduction, expect Glaceon Ex to remain a competitive staple.
