Darkrai ex's ability to inflict an extra 20 damage when moving Energy synergizes perfectly with Dawn, facilitating Energy manipulation. Weavile ex then capitalizes on this weakened opponent, dealing increased damage.
This Darkrai ex/Weavile ex combination is currently highly effective in the Pokémon TCG Pocket meta. Its rapid setup easily overcomes decks requiring longer preparation.
Darkrai ex Koga Bounce
- Koffing (GA) x2
- Weezing x2

- Darkrai ex x2
- Professor's Research x2

- Potion
- Cyrus's Conspiracy x2
- Dawn x2
- Giant Cape x2
- Koga's Trap x2
The Koga deck, a favorite during the Genetic Apex era, receives a significant boost with this build. While complex to master, its strength lies in this complexity. Weezing inflicts gradual poison damage, while Koga's Trap resets the board if necessary. Dawn aids Pokémon repositioning, allowing for strategic poison damage buildup before unleashing Darkrai ex's attack.
Weezing and Spiritomb's low Energy requirements ensure consistent Energy allocation to Darkrai ex for maximized damage output.
