With the launch of the Triumphant Light expansion in *Pokemon TCG Pocket*, two Eeveelutions received the Ex treatment for the first time: Leafeon Ex and Glaceon Ex. Glaceon Ex stands out as a formidable card, especially when integrated into powerful decks. Here's a deep dive into the best Glaceon Ex decks in *Pokemon TCG Pocket*.
Best Glaceon Ex Decks in Pokemon TCG Pocket
Glaceon Ex delivers 90 damage with its Freezing Wind attack, but it's the Snowy Terrain ability that truly elevates its status. This ability deals 10 damage to the opponent's Active Pokemon during each Pokemon Checkup when Glaceon Ex is in the Active Spot. A Pokemon Checkup in *Pokemon TCG Pocket* occurs at the start of each player's turn, checking for status conditions, which means Snowy Terrain effectively inflicts 20 damage per round. This consistent damage output makes Glaceon Ex a versatile addition to various Water-type decks.
