Metal-type Pokémon like Meltan and Melmetal have faced challenges since the Genetic Apex era of Pokemon TCG Pocket. They experienced a slight revival during the Mythical Island expansion, but the introduction of Dialga Ex could mark a turning point for this archetype.

Dialga Ex brings much-needed consistency to the deck. Its Metallic Turbo ability allows you to attach two Metal Energy to your Benched Pokémon, accelerating your path to powering up Melmetal.

Mew Ex and Tauros serve as effective counters within this deck, also benefiting from Metallic Turbo. Mew Ex's Genome Hacking and Tauros's attacks require only Colorless Energy, enabling rapid setup while Dialga Ex leads the charge.

Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex Combo

  • Dialga Ex x2
  • Yanma x2
  • Yanmega Ex x2
  • Tauros
  • Mew Ex
  • Professor’s Research x2
  • Poke Ball x2
  • Pokemon Communication x2
  • Giant Cape x2
  • Dawn x2
  • Leaf x2

While Yanmega Ex traditionally thrives in a Grass-type deck alongside Exeggutor Ex, it pairs surprisingly well with Dialga Ex, especially given its Colorless Energy requirement. Yanmega Ex's Air Slash delivers 120 damage, capable of knocking out many opponents in one hit. The drawback is the need to discard an Energy, but Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo can quickly replenish it.

Dialga Ex's versatility makes it a valuable addition to any Colorless deck, thanks to Metallic Turbo. While Yanmega Ex may be its ideal partner, experimenting with other strong Colorless decks like Pidgeot or Pidgeot Ex could yield impressive results.

These are the top Dialga Ex decks to start with in Pokemon TCG Pocket. For more tips and detailed information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
