How To Play This Best Alcremie Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket Eevee Grove
Ideal Starting Hand for Best Alcremie Deck
The best hand for this deck would have Swirlix as your opening Pokemon. Along with other cards like Milcery to build on the bench, you can easily rack up two or three Sweets Relay before Swirlix (or Slurpuff) goes down. Pokemon Communication is also a good choice, which can let you swap in an extra Pokemon for something else you might need. Having Giant Cape and Irida is also great, to let Swirlix, Slurpuff, and Alcremie survive for longer.
Best Alcremie Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket: Strategy
This guide is very basic in how it functions:
- The main strategy is to use as many Sweets Relay as possible before Alcremie hits the field. This is because Alcremie deals 40 damage each time Sweets Relay has been used in the battle.
- Moreover, Water energy is used in this deck to allow Supporter cards like Irida to heal your Pokemon.
- Lastly, you need to time your Alcremie right to allow it to knock out enemy Pokemon and survive with extremely low HP.

Best Matchups for This Alcremie Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket
Psychic-type cards will do 20 extra damage against many Fighting-type cards, making them ideal against strong Fighting-type cards. Other than this, this deck can also be quite viable against other slower decks, since this deck can quickly ramp up damage with Slurpuff, for just two energy. Oricorio stall decks would also fall flat against this deck, as none of the cards are ex-versions.
Counters To This Alcremie Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket
All four cards in this deck are weak to Steel-type cards. Therefore, decks, which include Skarmory as a starter could be deadly for this deck. Additionally, Silvally could be deadly for this deck, as almost all the Pokemon have lower than 100 HP.
Best Alcremie Deck in Pokemon TCG Pocket Eevee Grove: Tips and Tricks
Here are some tips to use this deck in the most optimal manner:
- You should hold off Alcremie for as long as possible so you can get the maximum damage. Using more Sweets Relay will only make Alcremie more deadly in the long run.
- You want to start the battle with Swirlix, as Slurpuff is a good Pokemon for the middle game, with the ability to deal 90 damage for two energy. Meanwhile, since you are using Sweets Relay, Alcremie will be even stronger later in the game.
- You need to plan out Irida carefully so you survive attacks that would otherwise knock out your Pokemon. Irida is the only reason the deck runs on water energy. This is possible because all the Pokemon use colorless energy for their attacks.
- Take note of the opponent Pokemon’s HP. You can then calculate how many Sweets Relay you need to use before you can defeat them in one hit with Sweets Overload.
