Major cards Eevee

The Eeveelutions deck archetype was a competitive Pokémon Trading Card Game deck a while back, and was 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 held its strength in the fact that it combined five different elemental types into one deck. This allowed for exploitation of almost any other deck's weakness. For instance, if Eeveelutions was facing a deck that mostly utilized 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 was through this strategy that the deck was able to defeat many of the popular decks of that format.

Cards

The following Eevee evolutions are used in the deck:

Of course, Eevee was 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.
