Sylveon ex works best as part of an Eevee Tera Box alongside mainstays like Noctowl, Flareon ex, and Wellspring Mask Ogerpon ex. However, this deck focuses more on defence rather than on offense with cards like Leafeon ex and the main star Sylveon ex able to reduce damage and heal Pokemon.

Pokemon TCG Best Sylveon Ex Deck Guide Overview

The plan is to use Sylveon ex’s Magical Charm to reduce the damage your Pokemon takes by 100. Meanwhile, Leafeon ex’s Moss Agate heals 100 health from all Pokemon on your side of the playing field, while also dealing a massive 230 damage.

How To Play This Best Sylveon Ex Deck in Pokemon TCG

Ideal Starting Hand

You would want to play an Eevee or Eevee ex on your first turn letting it evolve into the evolution of your choice. Hoothoot is another choice as it can be evolved to Noctowl to use its ability Jewel Seeker when you have a Tera Pokemon in play to find two Trainer cards of your choice.

Here’s the strategy for this deck:

  • Sylveon ex should be set up and use its move Magical Charm to deal damage and prevent its teammates from taking too much in return.
  • Leafeon ex is the secondary attacker and healer of this deck. It can use its move Verdant Storm depending on the amount of energy attached to the opponents it’s facing. However, its second move Moss Agate is the more powerful choice for both dealing damage and healing its teammates.
