The new Hidden Spring expansion of the Pokémon Pocket Trading Card Game Pokémon Pocket brings Suicune ex as the protagonist of a versatile and powerful deck.
Accompanied by Greninja and Mantyke, this deck offers speed, control, and offensive potential that can define your most challenging duels.
The ideal opening: Mantyke and Suicune ex
The game plan begins with Mantyke in the Active Spot and Suicune ex on the Bench. Thanks to Mantyke, Water Energy arrives quickly and allows Suicune to prepare its Splash Pass attack. To reduce risk, it is key to equip Mantyke with a Giant Cape, increasing its HP and giving it more endurance in the early turns.
The power of Suicune ex

Once active, Suicune ex deploys its Legendary Pulse ability, which grants extra card draw at the end of each turn. This accelerates access to resources and keeps constant pressure on the opponent. Its Crystal Waltz attack scales with the number of Pokémon on the opponent's Bench, becoming a massive damage threat.
Greninja, the control piece
If the opponent tries to slow down the impact of Crystal Waltz by limiting their Bench, Greninja comes into play. With its Water Shuriken ability, it can deal direct damage to opposing Pokémon even from the Bench. In addition, cards like Helio allow you to force a target into the Active Spot, exposing the opponent's strategy.
Tools to increase pressure

The Poké Flute can return a Basic Pokémon from the opponent's discard pile to the Bench, increasing Suicune ex's power. Meanwhile, Silver offers additional control by revealing the opponent's hand and discarding a key Supporter. If you prefer a more defensive approach, cards like Nakara help keep your Pokémon with Water Energy in good shape by healing 40 HP.
A complete and adaptable deck
The combination of speed, offensive pressure, and control makes Suicune ex one of the most attractive cards in Hidden Spring. Mastering this strategy requires anticipating the opponent's moves and using the right tools at the right time.
With Greninja, Mantyke, and the support of tactical cards, your Suicune ex deck can make a difference in any tournament.
