Glaceon Ex boasts a 90-damage Freezing Wind attack. However, its Snowy Terrain ability is its true strength. Snowy Terrain inflicts 10 damage on your opponent's Active Pokémon during each Pokémon Checkup if Glaceon Ex is active.

A Pokémon Checkup occurs at the start of each player's turn, checking for status conditions. In Pokémon TCG Pocket, this effectively doubles Snowy Terrain's damage to 20 per round.

This makes Glaceon Ex adaptable to various Water-type decks:

Starmie Ex (Water Energy) Deck

This deck utilizes Starmie Ex's speed and Glaceon Ex's passive damage to overwhelm opponents.

• 2x Eevee
• 2x Glaceon Ex
• 1x Vaporeon (Mythical Island)
• 2x Staryu
• 2x Starmie Ex
• 1x Palkia Ex
• 2x Professor’s Research
• 2x Dawn
• 2x Irida
• 2x Misty
• 2x Poké Ball

Starmie Ex's zero retreat cost and Glaceon Ex's single retreat cost allow easy switching. Dawn and Vaporeon (with its Wash Out ability) facilitate efficient energy management. Palkia Ex provides a powerful finisher with Dimensional Storm. Misty offers a chance for lucky wins, while Irida (a new Triumphant Light Supporter) heals Water-energized Pokémon for 40 HP.

Greninja (Water Energy) Deck

This deck focuses on consistent chip damage using Greninja's Water Shuriken and Glaceon Ex's Snowy Terrain.

• 2x Eevee
• 2x Glaceon Ex
• 2x Froakie
• 2x Frogadier
• 2x Greninja
• 1x Palkia Ex
• 2x Professor’s Research
• 2x Irida
• 2x Misty
• 2x Poké Ball
• 1x Pokémon Communication

The strategy involves combining the passive damage from both Glaceon Ex and Greninja for significant early-game pressure. Pokémon Communication helps quickly assemble a Greninja line, while Irida provides crucial healing. Misty remains valuable for potential game-changing flips, and Palkia Ex acts as an energy sink for powerful attacks.

These two decks showcase Glaceon Ex's versatility. Irida's inclusion further enhances its flexibility within the Water-type archetype, promising a significant Glaceon Ex presence in future Pokémon TCG Pocket meta.
