Mew EX is here to keep the meta in check
We might’ve spent hours trying to find Mew back in the original Pokémon Red & Blue – even going so far as to search beneath trucks – it isn’t a super difficult card to obtain in Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket’s Mythical Island set. Mew EX is flexible enough to slot into just about any deck,...

Guide Pokémon TCG Pocket: Articuno EX Deck Guide
This icy deck only requires two rare Pokémon instead of several to freeze opponents out

Guide Pokémon TCG Pocket: Celebi EX Deck Guide
Oh no, this Grass fairy is going to be a problem
It was too much to hope that a meta-dominating card wouldn’t be added to Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket with its first expansion, Mythical Island.

Guide Pokémon TCG Pocket: Dragonite Deck Guide
Big orange Barney can totally ruin your opponents’ days.
Dragon types were widely regarded as one of the best types at least until Fairy type came along. Without a Fairy type in Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket and no weaknesses to speak of, Dragon types should be back on top, right? Well, not really, but that doesn’t mean Dragon types are...
