The first Eeveelutions to receive EX forms in *Pokemon TCG Pocket* hail from Generation IV: Leafeon and Glaceon. While both are impressive, this guide delves into the strategic depth of Leafeon EX. Below, we explore the best Leafeon EX decks tailored for *Pokemon TCG Pocket*.
Best Leafeon EX Decks in Pokemon TCG Pocket
Leafeon EX's prowess doesn't stem from its Solar Beam attack, which deals 70 damage for three total energy. Instead, its strength lies in the Forest Breath ability. When Leafeon EX is in the Active Spot, Forest Breath allows you to attach a Grass energy to one of your Grass-type Pokémon, making it an invaluable asset for energy acceleration.
This ability synergizes exceptionally well with the Mythical Island powerhouse, Celebi EX, creating a formidable duo.
Celebi EX (Grass Energy)
2x Eevee (Space-Time Smackdown) 2x Leafeon EX 2x Celebi 2x Professor’s Research 2x Dawn 2x Erika 1x Sabrina 2x Giant’s Cape 2x Poké Ball 2x Potion 1x Pokémon Communication
The strategy for this deck revolves around setting up Leafeon EX in the Active Spot, using Giant’s Cape, Erika, and Potions to keep it alive. Meanwhile, you'll use Forest Breath to empower both Leafeon EX and Celebi EX. With 140 HP, Leafeon EX can hold its own against most aggressive Pokémon long enough to retreat and set up a fully charged Celebi EX.
The key is to decide when to power up Leafeon EX and when to focus on Celebi EX, utilizing both energies generated each turn. This straightforward strategy has proven effective with Exeggutor EX in place of Leafeon EX, but this version offers even greater scaling potential. Don't hesitate to use Dawn to boost Celebi EX's power.

Yanmega EX (Grass Energy)
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
While the Celebi EX deck is the prime candidate for Leafeon EX, there's also potential in pairing it with Yanmega EX. Yanmega EX's Air Slash delivers 120 damage for three Colorless energy, requiring you to discard an energy after attacking. Leafeon EX's Forest Breath helps stack energy on Yanmega EX, enabling consecutive attacks.
Erika ensures both these 140 HP Pokémon remain in play, though equipping them with 2x Giant’s Cape pushes them past the critical 150 HP threshold. This deck adopts a rush-down style that could outpace the prevalent Exeggutor EX decks within the Grass type category.
While Venusaur EX might seem like a viable partner for Leafeon EX, it's unlikely to outperform the above two decks. Therefore, these are the top *Pokemon TCG Pocket* decks to maximize your new Leafeon EX's potential.
