Dialga Ex dominates the Pokémon TCG Pocket Space-Time Smackdown expansion, boasting its own powerful deck archetypes. Here are two top-tier Dialga Ex deck builds to start with:
Table of Contents
- Metal Dialga Ex
- Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex Combo
Metal Dialga Ex
This deck leverages Dialga Ex's synergy with Metal-type Pokémon, addressing past weaknesses.
- Meltan x2
- Melmetal x2
- Dialga Ex x2
- Mew Ex
- Heatran
- Tauros
- Dawn x2
- Giovanni x2
- Leaf x2
- Professor’s Research x2

Dialga Ex's Metallic Turbo ability significantly boosts consistency. It attaches two Metal Energy to benched Pokémon, accelerating Melmetal's deployment. Mew Ex and Tauros, also benefiting from Metallic Turbo, serve as effective counters. Their Colorless Energy requirements ensure rapid energy attachment alongside Dialga Ex's attacks.
Dialga Ex/Yanmega Ex Combo
This deck pairs Dialga Ex with Yanmega Ex for a potent Colorless strategy.
- Dialga Ex x2
- Yanma x2
- Yanmega Ex x2
- Tauros
- Mew Ex
- Professor’s Research x2
- Poké Ball x2
- Pokémon Communication x2
- Giant Cape x2
- Dawn x2
- Leaf x2
Yanmega Ex's Air Slash inflicts 120 damage, capable of one-shotting many opponents, despite the energy discard penalty. Dialga Ex readily replenishes the discarded energy. Dialga Ex's versatility extends to other Colorless decks, making experimentation with Pokémon like Pidgeot or Pidgeot Ex worthwhile.
