Glaceon EX boasts a 90 damage Freezing Wind attack. However, its true power lies in its Snowy Terrain ability, inflicting 10 damage to the opponent's Active Pokémon during each Pokémon Checkup while it's active. A Pokémon Checkup occurs at the start of each player's turn, effectively dealing 20 damage per round. This passive damage makes Glaceon EX a valuable addition to several Water-type decks.
Starmie EX (Water Energy) Deck
This deck utilizes a fast-paced strategy, combining Starmie EX's quick attacks with Glaceon EX's consistent chipping damage.
- 2x Eevee
- 2x Glaceon EX
- 1x Vaporeon (Mythical Island)
- 2x Staryu
- 2x Starmie EX
- 1x Palkia EX
- 2x Professor's Research
- 2x Dawn
- 2x Irida
- 2x Misty
- 2x Poké Ball
The low retreat costs of Starmie EX and Glaceon EX (one for Glaceon EX) allow for easy switching and energy management, facilitated by Dawn and Vaporeon's Wash Out ability (shifting Water energy). Palkia EX provides a powerful finisher with Dimensional Storm, while Misty offers a chance for lucky wins. Irida, a new Supporter from Triumphant Light, heals Water-energy-attached Pokémon for 40 HP, enhancing survivability.
Greninja (Water Energy) Deck
This deck emphasizes consistent chip damage, leveraging Greninja's Water Shuriken and Glaceon EX's Snowy Terrain. With both active, you deal 40 passive damage alongside their individual attacks.
- 2x Eevee
- 2x Glaceon EX
- 2x Froakie
- 2x Frogadier
- 2x Greninja
- 1x Palkia EX
- 2x Professor's Research
- 2x Irida
- 2x Misty

Pokémon Communication helps assemble a Greninja line quickly, while Glaceon EX and Irida provide sustained damage and healing. Misty again offers surprise wins, and Palkia EX serves as an energy sink for a potential game-ending attack.
These two decks showcase Glaceon EX's versatility. Irida's powerful healing makes it a strong card in Water-type decks, promising a prominent future for Glaceon EX in Pokémon TCG Pocket.
