Perhaps it was to be expected that when Pokemon added the literal god of the Pokeverse, Arceus, to TCG Pocket, regular, lowly 'mons might struggle to compete. As it happens, yeah, that's sort of true, but we have two lone heroes here to save us from a total PvP takeover – a fake smiley tree and a big dinosaur.
At the time of writing, thanks to the release of the newest expansion, Triumphant Light, one of Pokemon TCG Pocket's best decks stars Pokegod Arceus and its draconic, ruler of time offspring Dialga. Dialga's Metallic Turbo move allows you to attach two Metal-type Energies to Arceus on top of any other Energy you might have given it that turn, allowing it to quickly deploy its Ultimate Force move. With 70 base power and the ability to go to 130 with three benched Pokemon, it's basically like a stronger Pikachu ex that dominated the meta back at the game's launch.
