Celebi ex & Serperior Deck Mythical Island Expert Solo Battle Guide

Welcome to our guide to defeat the Celebi ex & Serperior deck in the latest Mythical Island expansion for Expert Solo Battles in the Pokémon TCG Pocket game!

Celebi ex & Serperior Deck (Mythical Island)

Your opponent will be playing a very aggro-ish deck. Honestly, it took me multiple playthroughs to complete all tasks with different decks. I am predicting that a1a-3-celebi-ex will be a META changer in days/weeks to come.

General F2P Expert Solo Battle Guides

  • Consider using rental decks to beat the stage. This is a good strategy especially if you're a new player. This allows for 100% completion without spending any money.
  • Complete tasks gradually. Challenge solo battles multiple times with different decks until all objectives are achieved. You DO NOT need to complete all tasks in one-sitting.
  • Key Supporting/Item Cards for Success (General Deck Building Guide):
    • promo-1-potion: 2 copies. Keep your Active Pokémon to survive longer giving you 1 or 2 extra turns while you setup your benched Pokémon or do some counterplays.
    • promo-5-poke-ball: 2 copies. Tutor cards from your deck and thin your deck for better draws.
    • promo-7-professors-research: 2 copies. Draw more cards for increased options and flexibility during your turn.
    • a1a-64-pokemon-flute: 1 or 2 copies. This card combos well with the a1-225-sabrina card. Bring a basic Pokémon for your opponent's bench and use a1-225-sabrina for an easy KO securing a point.
    • a1-272-sabrina: 1 or 2 copies. Force your opponent's EX Pokémon back to the bench to gain an advantage and potentially secure a match point.
    • promo-2-x-speed: Rotate your Active Pokémon with Benched Pokémon to prevent unnecessary knockouts and maximize the effectiveness of your setup. (Optional, as you can easily reset Solo Battles.)
    • a1a-82-leaf: None or 1 copy. Some Pokémon requires 2 energies to retreat and this card can help in clutch situations.
  • Use other decks: Once you have completed the "Win this battle using a deck where all the Pokémon cards are of ⟡, ⟡⟡, and/or ⟡⟡⟡ rarity" challenge, transition to more powerful decks featuring EX Pokémon. MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER.
  • Refer to our Guides Section and Tier List for deckbuilding inspiration and optimal strategies.

  • Deck list below includes Fighting-type Pokemon with Psychic weaknesses only.
  • Aggro down their Pokémon with the new Mythical Island cards: a1a-41-mankey and a1a-42-primeape.
  • a1a-60-tauros is a tech inclusion to one-shot a1a-3-celebi-ex with the help of a1-223-giovanni.
  • a1a-60-tauros is a flexible inclusion and can be swapped out with a copy of promo-1-potion or a1-225-sabrina
  • You can also win with a1-145-machamp, hitting them consistently every turn. Machamp's evolutionary line scales naturally with a1-143-machop and a1-144-machoke.
  • Best opening hand is when you get to go second with a1-143-machop and a1-144-machoke in hand.
  • Reset if you don't have a good hand at the start.
