The *Pokémon TCG Pocket* Space-Time Smackdown expansion has shaken up the meta, introducing exciting new deck archetypes. Among them, Darkrai ex stands out as a particularly potent force. Here are some top-tier Darkrai ex decks to build:

Pokémon TCG Pocket: Best Darkrai ex Decks

Darkrai ex/Weavile ex

This deck utilizes the synergistic power of Darkrai ex and Weavile ex.

• Sneasel x2
• Weavile ex x2
• Murkrow x2
• Honchkrow x2
• Darkrai ex x2
• Dawn x2
• Cyrus's Leaf x2
• Professor's Research x2
• Poké Ball x2
• Great Cape x2

Darkrai ex's ability to inflict an extra 20 damage when energy is moved to it pairs perfectly with Dawn, facilitating energy manipulation. Weavile ex then capitalizes on this weakened opponent, delivering additional damage. This fast-acting combo quickly overwhelms decks requiring longer setup times, making it a formidable force in the current meta.

Darkrai ex Koga Bounce

This deck revives the popular Koga strategy from the Genetic Apex era.

• Koffing (GA) x2
• Weezing x2
• Spiritomb
• Darkrai ex x2
• Professor's Research x2
• Poké Ball x2
• Potion
• Cyrus x2
• Dawn x2
• Giant Cape x2
• Koga x2

This deck requires skillful piloting due to its complex mechanics. The strategy revolves around using Weezing's poison to inflict chip damage, while Koga resets the board when necessary. Leag (presumably a typo, intended to be "Dawn" or another card with similar function) aids in Pokémon repositioning. The goal is to weaken opponents with poison, then unleash the devastating power of Darkrai ex. The low energy requirements of Weezing and Spiritomb allow for consistent energy allocation to Darkrai ex for maximum damage output.
