Major cards Eevee

The Eeveelutions deck archetype is a competitive Pokémon Trading Card Game deck, and was formerly popular for its diversity and strength against most other types of decks. It was also reprinted as a World Championships Deck.

Strategy

The Eeveelutions deck holds its strength in the fact that it combins five different elemental types into one deck. This allows for exploitation of almost any other deck's weakness. For instance, if Eeveelutions is facing a deck that mostly utilizes Fighting-type Pokémon, which are typically weak against Psychic-type, the player would take advantage of that weakness by evolving Eevee into Espeon ex as soon as possible. It is through this strategy that the deck is able to defeat many of the popular decks of that format.

Cards

The following Eevee evolutions are used in the deck:

Of course, Eevee is used in the deck because without it, the player would have a hard time getting their evolutions into play. The Trainers in the deck are virtually all geared toward rooting all the Eeveelutions out of the deck, such as Celio's Network. As for Energy, a typical Eeveelutions deck would use several Multi Energies, Holon Energies, and Double Rainbow Energies.

Typical decklist

The deck list appearing below is not official; it is meant to represent an average build of the archetype, not specifically constructed for any regional metagame. Being that this is merely an archetype, a player may wish to change any part of this deck when building his or her own version.
