As with most meta-friendly Pocket <\/em>lists, plenty of Supporters, Items, and Pok\u00e9mon Tools are <\/span>in this list to help get Gallade ex Energized and ready to go. Pok\u00e9mon Center Lady<\/strong> helps with healing in the early game and avoiding Knock Outs, while Red <\/strong>helps to boost damage dealt.<\/p>

The addition of two copies of Cyrus means you can create a little chaos for your opponents during the match by dragging injured ‘mons back onto the field, while Leaf and the singular copy of Giant Cape help mitigate any heavy-hitting attacks coming your way.<\/p>

If you’re looking to put a spin on this list or you’re low on the necessary cards, plenty of helpful variants are worth looking at. Some are more F2P-friendly than others, while some inclusions simply prioritize a different style of play.<\/p>

Some popular inclusions for an alternate variant of a Gallade ex deck are:<\/p>

  • The Lucario line <\/strong>from Space-Time Smackdown<\/em> for an additional burst of Fighting-type damage<\/li>
  • Mew ex <\/strong>for its Genome Hacking attack, letting you use an opponent’s damage against them<\/li>
  • Blue<\/strong> for a buff to survivability and tankiness<\/li>
  • The Porygon-Z line <\/strong>for extra chaos and disruption<\/li>
  • Sabrina <\/strong>for a deeper layer of control over the board<\/li>
  • An additional copy of Marshadow<\/strong> for further use of Revenge in tricky matches<\/li>
  • Rocky Helmet <\/strong>for extra damage and protection while setting up <\/li> <\/ul>

    If you’re hoping to make a swap or experiment with card quantities, we’d suggest swapping out a copy of Leaf from our list. While this card is important to have\u2014we wouldn’t recommend getting rid of both<\/strong>\u2014losing one copy for another pick won’t disrupt the overall strategy of the list.<\/p>
