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 optimal strategies for maximizing Leafeon EX's potential.

Leafeon EX's strength 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 powerful 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's Insight
• 2x Giant's Cape
• 2x Poké Ball
• 2x Potion
• 1x Pokémon Communication

This deck aims to establish Leafeon EX, keeping it alive with Giant's Cape, Erika's Hospitality, and Potions, while using Forest Breath to power up both Leafeon EX and Celebi EX. Leafeon EX's 140 HP allows it to survive many attacks, providing time to switch to a fully charged Celebi EX. Strategic energy allocation is key—decide when to power up Leafeon EX versus prioritizing Celebi EX. Dawn can further boost Celebi EX's power. This strategy, previously successful with Exeggutor EX, shows even greater potential with Leafeon EX.

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 compelling pairing with Leafeon EX. Yanmega EX's Air Slash (120 damage for 3 Colorless Energy, discarding an energy after use) benefits from Leafeon EX's energy acceleration, enabling consecutive attacks. Erika's Hospitality keeps both 140 HP Pokémon alive, while 2x Giant's Cape pushes them above the crucial 150 HP threshold. This deck employs a fast-paced, aggressive strategy that could outperform common Exeggutor EX decks.

While other combinations, like Venusaur EX with Leafeon EX, are possible, the Celebi EX and Yanmega EX decks offer the most potent strategies currently available. These decks provide the best starting points for utilizing your Leafeon EX in Pokémon TCG Pocket.
