The new Mew and Mythical Island set in Pokémon TCG Pocket brings powerful new cards that shake up the current meta. The set offers particularly strong options for Grass decks, featuring cards like Exeggcute/Exeggutor, Celebi ex, and a Stage 2 Serperior with a potent ability. While Fire and Electric decks get some new additions, they are less disruptive than the strong Grass options.
The arrival of Mew and its Mythical Island special set in Pokémon TCG Pocket brings with it some very disruptive cards. Clearly intended to mess with the current meta and mix things up for people relying on the same three decks in all their battles, it should make online competition far more interesting until the arrival of a full new set in January.

Grass decks Grass decks get their first decent chance in the meta, with some very powerful additions among the nine new cards.

So, yeah, combine that with the Exeggutor or the Celebi and crikey, you’re in business. Fire decks Fire decks didn’t need any help, and accordingly only have marginal new additions among the seven new arrivals. Ponyta and Rapidash have slightly better attacks, and Salandit and Salazzle are given poison attacks. Perhaps the most interesting new twist is Volcarona, which will do 80 damage to any opponent Pokémon of your choice, but will discard two of the three energy it cost to deliver. Electric decks Electric decks get six new cards, and offer a cute change with a new Pikachu who has an attack that does 10 damage per benched monster, like a mini-version of the Pikachu ex’s skil
