Gardevoir ex deck guide

Looking for a Gardevoir Ex Deck guide? This unique deck in the Pokemon TCG meta focuses on blocking opponent’s moves rather than attacking. With its unusual strategy, you can learn how to beat your opponents by blocking their attacks with Gardevoir ex and your opponent’s abilities.

Gardevoir ex decks are a recent addition to the Pokemon TCG meta, and while they may not be the best decks in the game right now, they’re certainly fun to play. This deck utilises some unique cards, including Ralts, which evolves into Gardevoir, and Refinement Kirlia, which helps you draw more cards. Gardevoir ex is a high-HP Pokemon, so using Memory Skip Ralts to block your opponent’s attacking Pokemon is crucial. Here’s everything you need to know about Gardevoir ex in the Pokemon TCG.

Gardevoir ex deck list

The Gardevoir ex deck list that you’ll see below is a good starting point for playing Gardevoir ex in the current meta. You can swap some cards around, but make sure you don’t lose sight of the goal of the deck, which is to set up Zacian V or Gardevoir for attacking.

Gardevoir ex cards

The Gardevoir ex cards in this deck are:

  • Gardevoir ex
  • Memory Skip Ralts
  • Refinement Kirlia
  • Zacian V
  • Radiant Greninja
  • Mew
  • Battle VIP Pass
  • Forest Seal Stone
  • Boss’s Orders
  • Pal Pad

Gardevoir ex has a couple of cards in this deck, including a basic Pokemon and support. Gardevoir has the move Energy Switch, which lets you attach Energy cards to any of your Pokemon, while Gardevoir ex acts as a support, letting you attach Energy cards to your Pokemon with a Rule Box.

Memory Skip Ralts and Refinement Kirlia are crucial to have in play early on as they can block your opponent’s attacking Pokemon. Discarding Energy cards is necessary to trigger Gardevoir ex’s ability and supply Energy to other cards.

Gardevoir ex’s ability, Psychic Embrace, lets you attach basic Psychic Energy cards from your discard pile to your Pokemon. This can be helpful if you need to attach Energy cards to your Pokemon without having a Gardevoir ex in play.

Zacian V has an ability that is very similar to Gardevoir ex’s ability, allowing you to attach a basic Energy card from your deck to any of your Pokemon. This is useful if you’re in a tight spot and need to attack with Zacian V or another Basic Pokemon.

Radiant Greninja is used to discard Energy cards from your hand to the discard pile, which is useful for triggering Gardevoir ex’s ability or Refinement Kirlia’s move.

Mew is a priority card in this deck as it allows you to search for important cards like Battle VIP Pass, to get your setup going even faster.

Battle VIP Pass allows you to search for two basic Pokemon from your deck and put them on your bench. This can be helpful if you’re missing any of the important Gardevoir ex or Zacian V cards.

Forest Seal Stone is a useful one if you’re missing Battle VIP Pass as it allows you to search for any card from your deck to put in your hand.

Boss’s Orders is a staple card in the meta for forcing your opponent to switch their active Pokemon. The newer cards in this deck are the ones that allow you to do one more damage to your opponent’s Pokemon, such as Fury Claw and Power Swing, so they’re important to have in your hand to use with Boss’s Orders.

Pal Pad is a handy card to get you more cards to your hand as you can draw two trainer cards from your deck.

You’ll want to start off with Battle VIP Pass or Level Ball to quickly set up your Pokemon. Be aware of your opponent’s strategy and use Memory Skip at the right time. The goal is to have enough time to set up Zacian V or Gardevoir for attacking.
