Metal Dialga Ex
The Metal Dialga Ex deck leverages the synergy between Dialga Ex and other Metal-type Pokémon like Meltan and Melmetal, which have been struggling since the *Genetic Apex* era but saw a revival during *Mythical Island*. With the introduction of Dialga Ex, this archetype could finally become competitive.

- Melmetal x2
- Dialga Ex x2
- Mew Ex
- Heatran
- Tauros
- Dawn x2
- Giovanni x2
- Leaf x2
- Professor’s Research x2
- Poke Ball x2
- Giant Cape x2
Dialga Ex enhances the deck's consistency with its Metallic Turbo ability, allowing you to attach two Metal Energy to your Benched Pokémon. This speeds up the process of powering up Melmetal. Mew Ex and Tauros serve as effective counters and also benefit from Metallic Turbo, enabling quicker setup with their Colorless Energy requirements while you're attacking with Dialga Ex.
Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex Combo
The Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex combo deck offers a versatile approach, combining Dialga Ex with Yanmega Ex, which typically thrives in Grass-type decks but can be surprisingly effective here due to its Colorless Energy needs. Yanmega Ex's Air Slash can deal 120 damage, potentially one-shotting many opponents, though it requires discarding an Energy. Fortunately, Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo can quickly rebuild your energy reserves.

Dialga Ex's versatility makes it a great fit for any Colorless deck, particularly with Yanmega Ex as its partner. However, experimenting with other strong Colorless decks like Pidgeot or Pidgeot Ex could also yield impressive results.
