Mythical Island: Must-Have Cards from the Pokémon TCG Pocket Expansion
The Pokémon TCG Pocket Mythical Island mini-expansion introduces 80 new cards, including the highly anticipated Mew Ex. This guide highlights the top cards to acquire from the Mythical Island pack.
Pokémon TCG Pocket Mythical Island Top Cards: Mew Ex, Vaporeon, Tauros, Raichu, Blue
Despite its compact size, Mythical Island delivers exciting cards capable of reshaping the Pokémon TCG Pocket meta or bolstering existing strategies. Let's examine each standout card.
130 HP Psyshot (1 Psy Energy): 20 damage. Genome Hacking (3 Colorless Energy): Choose one of your opponent's Active Pokémon's attacks and use it as this attack.
Mew Ex, a Basic Pokémon, is Mythical Island's crown jewel. Its high HP, serviceable basic attack, and game-changing Genome Hacking ability offer immense potential. It's a strong addition to existing Mewtwo Ex decks alongside Gardevoir or even Colorless strategies.
120 HP Wash Out (Ability): As often as you like during your turn, you may move a Water Energy from 1 of your Benched Water Pokémon to your Active Water Pokémon. Wave Splash (1 Water, 2 Colorless Energy): 60 damage.
Vaporeon's Wash Out ability is a game-changer, particularly against prevalent Misty decks. The ability to freely shift Water Energy between Pokémon significantly amplifies the power of Water-type strategies.
100 HP Fighting Tackle (3 Colorless Energy): If your opponent’s Active Pokémon is a Pokémon Ex, this attack does 80 more damage. 40+ damage.
Tauros requires strategic setup, but its Fighting Tackle attack delivers devastating blows against Ex Pokémon. Dealing 120 damage to an Ex Pokémon instantly eliminates threats like Pikachu Ex and significantly weakens Charizard Ex.
120 HP Gigashock (3 Lightning Energy): This attack also does 20 damage to each of your opponent’s Benched Pokémon. 60 damage.
Raichu further intensifies the threat posed by Pikachu Ex/Zebstrika decks. Gigashock's area-of-effect damage cripples strategies relying on slowly building a bench. Its quick setup in Surge decks makes it a formidable opponent.
During your opponent’s next turn, all of your Pokémon take -10 damage from attacks from your opponent’s Pokémon.
Blue provides crucial defense against powerful opponents like Blaine and Giovanni. By mitigating the impact of their quick knockout strategies, Blue offers a potent countermeasure.
