Gyarados ex is a new Pokemon from Mythical Island that is able to make use of Misty. Leaf and Vaporeon allow it to be even more efficient with its Energy, making it so you don't discard as much resources whenever you retreat.

Starmie ex

Pokemon Cards
Staryu ×2				Starmie ex ×2				Articuno ex ×2				Farfetch'd ×1
Trainer Cards
Misty ×2				Giovanni ×1				Sabrina ×2				Potion ×2
X Speed ×1				Poke Ball ×2				Red Card ×1				Professor's Research ×2

Starmie ex and Articuno ex is the best user of Misty, as Misty allows it to be explosive, but also Energy-efficient. Articuno ex using Blizzard turns earlier than it normally would often makes for board states that are difficult to compete with.

Meanwhile, Starmie ex needs only two Energy to start attacking. Which means, Misty only needs one heads flip and a turn attachment for Starmie ex to be fully ready for battle.

Articuno ex + 18 Trainers is a powerful deck that makes use of Misty as its primary means of gaining an advantage. This deck does not make use of Starmie ex and relies only on Articuno ex as its primary attacker.

With a single Misty heads flip and a turn attachment, Articuno ex can start attacking with Ice Wing. Multiple Misty heads flips means you're probably taking over the game.

Lapras ex + 18 Trainers also makes great use of Misty, which helps it quickly get to 3 Energy to pay for Bubble Drain's Attack Cost.

Lapras ex, however, is less optimal compared to Articuno ex because of its lack of a less expensive first Attack. This necessitates the need for multiple Misty heads flips, where 1 heads flip will generate only minimal value.

Blastoise ex

Pokemon Cards
Squirtle ×2				Wartortle ×2				Blastoise ex ×2				Kangaskhan ×2
Trainer Cards
Misty ×2				Sabrina ×2				Potion ×2				X Speed ×2
Poke Ball ×2				Professor's Research ×2

Blastoise ex also makes use of Misty to speed up its set up and pay for Hydro Bazooka's additional cost. This deck makes use of Kangaskhan as an efficient 1-Energy attacker and tank, soaking up damage while your Squirtles sit on the Bench and set up.

Misty can allow you to expedite the setup of Blastoise ex and dominate with it turns earlier than you normally would without Misty.

What Are Misty Decks?

Water Decks That Use Misty

Misty is the heart of these decks, often deciding whether or not it will win on a coin flip. Misty's overwhelming value comes from its ability to accelerate Energy on successful coin flips. This makes going first not so disadvantageous, as Water Pokemon can attack if they are able to pay for their Attack's Energy Cost. Even one Misty heads flip can put you ahead of your opponent in terms of Energy attachments and tempo.

Misty, while dependent on flips, makes Water decks viable, and is an auto-include for any deck that runs Water Pokemon
