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 best strategies for maximizing Leafeon EX's potential.

Leafeon EX's true power isn't its Solar Beam attack (70 damage for 3 Grass Energy), but its game-changing Forest Breath ability. This ability lets you attach a Grass Energy to one of your Grass-type Pokémon while Leafeon EX is active.
This synergizes exceptionally well with Celebi EX, creating a potent 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's Hospitality
- 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's Hospitality, and Potions for survivability. Forest Breath fuels both Leafeon EX and Celebi EX, allowing for powerful attacks. Leafeon EX's 140 HP provides enough resilience to retreat and unleash Celebi EX's charged attacks. Strategically decide when to power up Leafeon EX or prioritize Celebi EX, using Dawn to maximize Celebi EX's energy. This strategy builds upon successful Exeggutor EX decks, but offers greater scaling potential.
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's Hospitality
- 2x Giant's Cape
- 2x Potion
- 2x Pokémon Communication
Alternatively, Yanmega EX offers a fast-paced approach. Yanmega EX's Air Slash (120 damage for 3 Colorless Energy, discarding an energy after use) benefits greatly from Leafeon EX's energy acceleration. Erika's Hospitality keeps both 140 HP Pokémon alive, while 2x Giant's Cape pushes their HP above 150 for added survivability. This aggressive deck aims to overwhelm opponents before they can establish a strong defense.
While other Pokémon like Venusaur EX might seem like a good fit, the Celebi EX and Yanmega EX decks provide the most effective strategies for utilizing Leafeon EX's abilities.
