With the recent release of the Celestial Guardians expansion in Pokémon TCG Pocket, the competitive landscape of the game has changed drastically. The incorporation of key cards like Rare Candy and Oricorio forced a reevaluation of strategies and adaptation to new dynamics.
In this context, a single deck emerged that managed to consolidate itself at the top of the ranking: the Giratina ex deck combined with Darkrai ex, which is currently considered the only Tier S in the entire game.
The Giratina ex – Darkrai ex duo
This deck is built on a powerful synergy between Giratina ex and Darkrai ex, two Pokémon whose abilities complement each other ideally to dominate the field without needing to be constantly active. One of the central axes of this deck is Darkrai's Nightmare Aura ability, which deals 20 damage points simply by attaching an energy to it. Additionally, this Pokémon can accumulate extra energies turn by turn, making it a constant threat.
