Leafeon and Glaceon, the Generation IV Eeveelutions, are the first to receive EX forms in Pokémon TCG Pocket. While both are powerful, let's delve into the optimal strategies for maximizing Leafeon EX's potential. This guide explores the top Leafeon EX decks.

Leafeon EX's strength isn't solely its Solar Beam attack (70 damage for 3 Grass Energy). Its real power lies in its Forest Breath ability: while Active, you can attach a Grass Energy to one of your Grass-type Pokémon.
This synergizes beautifully with Celebi EX, creating a powerful combination.
Celebi EX (Grass Energy) Deck
- 2x Eevee (Space-Time Smackdown)
- 2x Leafeon EX
- 2x Celebi EX
- 2x Professor's Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Erika
- 1x Sabrina
- 2x Giant's Cape
- 2x Poké Ball
- 2x Potion
- 1x Pokémon Communication
This deck focuses on keeping Leafeon EX active, utilizing Giant's Cape, Erika, and Potions for survivability. Forest Breath powers up both Leafeon EX and Celebi EX simultaneously. Leafeon EX's 140 HP allows it to withstand attacks, retreating to a fully powered Celebi EX. Strategic energy allocation is key—prioritize either Leafeon EX or Celebi EX based on the situation. Dawn can further boost Celebi EX's power. This deck offers significant scaling potential compared to similar Exeggutor EX strategies.
Yanmega EX (Grass Energy) Deck
- 2x Eevee (Space-Time Smackdown)
- 2x Leafeon EX
- 2x Yanma
- 2x Yanmega EX
- 2x Professor's Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Erika
- 2x Giant's Cape
- 2x Potion
- 2x Pokémon Communication
Alternatively, Yanmega EX offers a fast-paced strategy. Yanmega EX's Air Slash (120 damage for 3 Colorless Energy) requires discarding an energy after attacking; Leafeon EX helps mitigate this energy loss. Erika keeps both 140 HP Pokémon alive, while two Giant's Cape cards push them above the crucial 150 HP threshold. This aggressive deck aims to overwhelm opponents before they can react.
While other Pokémon like Venusaur EX might seem suitable, the Celebi EX and Yanmega EX decks provide the most effective strategies for leveraging Leafeon EX's abilities. These are your best bets for success in Pokémon TCG Pocket.
