A strategy without Ex cards that triumphs in amateur competitive tournaments.
The metagame of Pokémon TCG Pocket continues to evolve with the arrival of the Spacetime Struggle expansion and its mini-expansion Triumphant Light. Although the duo Dialga Ex and Arceus Ex dominates the scene, some players have found effective alternatives to compete without relying on Ex cards. This is the case of the user yuriisle, who surprised in the 18th Ursiiday weekly tournament by becoming champion with a deck based on Lucario. With an unconventional strategy and without resorting to Ex cards, he managed to win a prize of 400 dollars, showing that there is still room for creativity in competitive play. The strategy behind the Lucario deck This deck focuses on an aggressive and attrition mechanic. Unlike traditional decks, it doesn't seek to rely on a single powerful Pokémon, but on a well-structured synergy.The goal is to quickly evolve Riolu into Lucario to activate its Combat Trainer ability, which grants +20 damage points to all Fighting-Type Pokémon in the deck. Thus, each card becomes a threat without needing to resort to Ex Pokémon.
