A Misty Deck is an archetype consisting primarily Water decks that make use of the Misty Supporter card to accelerate Energy onto its Pokemon. Read on to learn about which decks make the best use of Misty and how to use them!

Best Misty Decks

Starmie ex

Starmie and Articuno Deck List
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.

Potion ×2				X Speed ×2				Poke Ball ×2				Red Card ×2
Professor's Research ×2

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

Professor's Research ×2

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.

Pokemon Cards
Krabby ×2				Kingler ×2				Articuno ex ×2
Trainer Cards
Misty ×2				Giovanni ×2				Potion ×2				X Speed ×2
Poke Ball ×2				Red Card ×2				Professor's Research ×2

All the Pokemon in the Kingler and Articuno ex deck can make use of Misty. With steep Energy costs for Blizzard and KO Crab, Misty is a natural fit for this deck!

Pokemon Cards
Caterpie ×2				Metapod ×2				Butterfree ×2				Lapras ex ×2
Trainer Cards
Misty ×2				Sabrina ×2				Potion ×2				X Speed ×2
Poke Ball ×2				Professor's Research ×2

Lapras ex partners up with Butterfree, providing it with passive healing to go along with the active healing that Bubble Drain provides. Butterfree's Powder Heal Ability can heal 20 damage at a time, allowing Lapras ex to heal 50 damage with one Butterfree and Bubble Drain, or 70 damage with two Butterfree and Bubble Drain.

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
