Darkrai Ex brings a unique ability to the table, allowing you to deal an extra 20 damage to your opponent’s Active Pokemon when you move an Energy to it. This ability synergizes exceptionally well with Dawn, who facilitates Energy movement. Following this, you can leverage Weavile Ex's attack, which can deliver additional damage to a Pokemon that’s already been weakened.

The Darkrai Ex/Weavile Ex combo is proving to be a formidable force in the current *Pokemon TCG Pocket* meta-game. This deck can be built quickly and efficiently, overpowering many decks that require more setup time.

Darkrai Ex Koga Bounce

• Koffing (GA) x2
• Weezing x2
• Spiritomb
• Darkrai Ex x2
• Professor’s Research x2
• Poke Ball x2
• Potion x2
• Cyrus x2
• Dawn x2
• Giant Cape x2
• Koga x2

The Koga deck, reminiscent of the Genetic Apex era, remains one of my personal favorites. This archetype, enhanced by the new Darkrai Ex, offers a thrilling gameplay experience.

While piloting this deck can be challenging due to its complexity, its strength lies in this very intricacy. The strategy involves dealing consistent chip damage using Weezing’s poison effect and resetting the card with Koga when necessary. Additionally, Dawn aids in moving your Pokemon around, setting the stage to soften up your opponents with poison damage before striking them down with Darkrai Ex.

A key advantage of this deck is that both Weezing and Spiritomb require minimal Energy investment, allowing you to focus more Energy on Darkrai Ex to maximize damage output.
