In Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket, there is much more to enjoy than the fun of opening digital booster packs and building a collection of cards to show off to your friends. You can also build custom decks and participate in battles, which use a simplified set of rules from the normal Pokemon Trading Card Game, translating into shorter games with more frequency played, rather than longer, drawn-out matches with more extensive rule sets.

For this reason, opening Booster Packs becomes crucial to not just completing your collection of each set that is released into the game, but also for building a reliable deck of cards that you can use with strategy to win matches. Mewtwo is one of the best cards from Pokemon TCG Pocket's Genetic Apex set to build around due to providing a relatively simple strategy. If you're curious about the best Mewtwo deck, including build formula, strategy, and how cards synergize together, all relevant information has been included below.

Best Mewtwo Deck Build In Pokemon TCG Pocket, Explained

mewtwo ex-1

Mewtwo ex is one of the most powerful cards to build a deck around in Pokemon TCG Pocket, as it functions as a Basic Pokemon that can deal 50 damage with two Energy attached and a whopping 150 with four Energy attached. This card is even further strengthened in power with the assistance of Gardevoir, due to the Psy Shadow Ability, enabling you to equip more Energy, and therefore dish out this heightened damage as early as possible.

With a powerful 150 damage-per-turn attack, Mewtwo can effectively 1 hit-KO a majority of other powerful threats and outlast most other Pokemon who manage to survive an initial blow. In the early game, however, Jynx may also be handy for dealing early damage, with an attack that dishes out up to 50 damage per turn — as long as the enemy's Active Pokemon is holding at least one Energy.

This enables Mewtwo to switch in later and clean up points for a smoother victory, making Jynx a solid optional card to include. In the case that you wish to keep your deck structured to Mewtwo and the Ralts line, you can exchange Jynx for a copy of an Item or Supporter card, such as Giovanni.

The biggest obstacle for this deck structure is getting Gardevoir into play to help boost Mewtwo. To achieve this, you need to simply have a Gardevoir sitting on your bench while Mewtwo is in play as your Active Pokemon, so starting a Ralts on your bench is highly recommended. This way, you can look to fish out Kirlia and Gardevoir from your deck as soon as possible, evolving Ralts into its final form to get Psy Shadow going.
