Pokémon TCG Pocket best Fire decks

Fire decks have not typically done very well inPokémon TCG Pocket. Even though Charizard Ex was regarded as the premier big numbers deck during the Genetic Apex days, it quickly became apparent that Pikachu Ex and Mewtwo Ex could outshine it with a few tweaks here and there.

That being said, Charizard Ex made a little bit of a comeback with its Shining Revelry variant, and Fire finally has a proper leg to stand on. I’ll go over each decklist below, along with the cards you need and how to pilot the deck.

The play line here is simple. Ideally, you want to start with Druddigon in the Active Spot to stall while building Charizard Ex on the Bench. By including Water energy in this deck, you’re able to potentially attack with Druddigon while also healing with Irida to stall for more time. Once Charizard Ex is ready to go, use Stoke, then start blasting with Steam Artillery.

you’re able to also consider subbing in Moltres Ex if you’d prefer to speed up Energy generation, though personally I’m a bigger fan of the stall tactics with Druddigon.

Charizard/Moltres/Arcanine Combo

For the Growlithe/Arcanine fans out there, this gives you a few more options to play around with as you build up Charizard Ex on the bench. Start with Moltres Ex in the Active Spot and with Growlithe and Charmander on the Bench. Use Moltres Ex to generate Energy quickly for Growlithe and Charmander, and once you’re ready, Arcanine Ex can help deal early damage while you wait to evolve into Charizard Ex.

Infernape Ex

Infernape Ex is a high-risk, high-reward Fire-type card capable of dealing 140 damage per turn, but the catch is that you’ll need to discard all Energy on it after attacking.

To get around this, use Moltres Ex to build up Energy again after Infernape’s attacks. The strength of this deck lies in its ability to get quick knockouts, but you risk leaving yourself vulnerable if you let a match drag on for too long or if you’re not able to get Infernape Ex set up in time.
