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 power doesn't lie in its Solar Beam attack (70 damage for 3 Grass Energy), but rather its game-changing Forest Breath ability. This ability allows you to attach a Grass Energy to one of your Grass-type Pokémon while Leafeon EX is active.
This synergy is particularly potent with Celebi EX and Yanmega EX.
This deck focuses on leveraging Leafeon EX's Forest Breath to power up both Leafeon EX and Celebi EX simultaneously.
The strategy involves keeping Leafeon EX active, utilizing Giant's Cape, Erika's Hospitality, and Potions for survivability. Forest Breath fuels both Leafeon EX and Celebi EX, allowing for powerful attacks. Leafeon EX's 140 HP provides enough resilience to retreat and switch to a fully powered Celebi EX. Don't hesitate to use Dawn to further enhance Celebi EX's energy. This approach offers significant scaling potential compared to similar strategies using Exeggutor EX.

This deck offers a faster, more aggressive approach using Yanmega EX's Air Slash (120 damage for 3 Colorless Energy, discarding an energy after attacking). Leafeon EX's Forest Breath provides the necessary energy for consecutive Yanmega EX attacks.
Erika's Hospitality keeps both 140 HP Pokémon alive, while two Giant's Cape cards push them above the crucial 150 HP threshold. This deck prioritizes a rush-down strategy, potentially outpacing common Grass-type decks using Exeggutor EX.
While other combinations, such as Venusaur EX with Leafeon EX, are possible, the Celebi EX and Yanmega EX decks offer the most effective strategies currently available. These are the best decks to utilize your Leafeon EX in Pokémon TCG Pocket.
