Players in Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket They need a well-established strategy to be successful in competitive battles, starting with building decks that include Fire-type cards. With victory requiring players to reach three points before their opponent, selecting the strongest cards in the game is crucial. Fire-type decks have emerged as a dominant choice in the list of currently available Genetic Apex cards due to their explosive potential.
Since the game’s release, Fire-type decks have demonstrated their aggression and strength in TCG Pocketespecially when built with an effective balance of Items, Supporter cards, and Pokémon. These decks are a fantastic investment, offering a variety of cards capable of dealing large amounts of damagemaking them an overwhelming force in competitive play.

Flareon
Flareon will allow players to achieve consistent damage quickly
Flareon is a solid candidate for Fire-type decks, capable of dealing significant damage with a low energy investment. Your only attack, “Flamethrower”, deals 110 damage for one Fire Energy and two Colorless Energy. Although using the attack requires discarding a fire energy, Flareon will still serve as an exceptionally fast setup. The Flareon’s 120 HP makes this card tankier than it might seem. However, its energy discard mechanic makes this card much less effective in decks that use multiple types.
For optimal use, it is essential to combine Flareon with Ninetales and Moltres ex. Nintales provides similar speed and damage output, while Moltres ex accelerates energy buildup, allowing for consistent attacks. If you prefer aggressive and hasty strategies, Flareon is a fantastic option. As a Stage 1 Pokémon, it can enter battle quickly and start dealing damage sooner.

Magmar
Magmar is an essential attack card for the early game
Magmar is far from being a powerhouse in Pokémon TCG Pocketbut its relatively high 80 HP and compatibility with the Blaine Supporter card make it a strong addition to a Fire-type deck. That’s it “Magma Punch”attack deals 50 damage for just two Fire Energy, providing consistent damage without drops.

Magmar shines as an early game optionespecially if you haven’t already acquired stronger cards like Arcanine and Moltres ex in TCG Pocket. It pairs well with Ninetales and Rapidash, offering some stability to the deck. When combined with Blaine, Magmar will deal 30 more damage, making it a much more impactful card. Although Magmar is not innovative and hardly intimidates the opponent, the basic card works well in a strategy focused on speed.
Momentum at the start of battle is critical to Pokémon TCG Pocketand basic Pokémon like Rapidash or Magmar can help establish a sense of control. Use your low-cost attacks to damage your opponent’s weaker Pokémon while preparing stronger Stage 1, Stage 2, or ex cards on your bench.

Centiskorch
Centiskorch is a somewhat expensive and hard-hitting Pokémon
Centiskorch is a card that may go unnoticed by many players who are making a Fire-type deck, but with its massive 130 damage attackcan be a force to be reckoned with. His attack, “Fire Explosion,” requires 4 Energy and the discard of a Fire-type Energy, which may seem expensive at first glance. However, when partnered with faster action cards and Moltres’s ex, Centiskorch can deliver battle final blows.

As a Stage 1 Pokémon evolving from Sizzlipede, Centiskorch is relatively easy to deploy if you build the deck efficiently. One of the main benefits of using this card lies in its ability to deal damage similar to the level of an ex-card, without losing two points if it is knocked out. This makes Centiskorch a strong option for less conservative fire-type decks.
7
Salazzle
Salazzle is a cheap and efficient Pokémon
Salazzle is a similar card to Magmar – not a game changer, but a reliable and consistent card in battle. With 90 HP, the Stage 1 Pokémon will resist most initial battle attacks. However, what makes this card effective is its low energy cost. His attack, “Fire Claws,” requires only two energy for 60 damage (one Fire Energy and one Colorless Energy). This fact makes the Salazzle an efficient choice for maintaining pressure while preparing stronger and heavier hitters such as Charizard ex in TCG Pocket.
With a withdrawal cost of just one, Salazzle is a excellent Pokémon to put in the Active Spot from the beginning. When its HP is low, it can easily be swapped out for a healthier and potentially stronger Pokémon. This strategy can frustrate opponents, forcing them to work harder for a single point, as Salazzle is tactically removed at the right time.

Charizard
Charizard is a strong replacement for the former version of Pokémon
Charizard is a solid option for Fire-type decks, despite the previous version of the card being much stronger. This card will deal large amounts of damage, high enough to knock down most cards in Pokémon TCG Pocket. The attack “Fire Spin” will do 150 damage. However, this attack requires four energy to use and drops two fire energy upon use. This means that Charizard is best used to deliver the finishing blow, but may not be effective otherwise.

Furthermore, the 150 HP will help you resist opponents’ attacks, with a withdrawal cost of twoCharizard should easily survive the entire battle in TCG Pocketalthough the card needs exceptional patience and strategic play.
While Fire-type decks are great in aggressive games, incorporating Supporter cards like Blaine and healing items can make your strategy more sustainable. Cards like Arcanine ex, which deals damage to itself with “Infernal Onslaught,” benefit greatly from Potions to stay in battle longer.

Ex arcane
Ex Arcanine is a high-risk, high-reward powerhouse
Despite being one of the weakest ex-cards in Pokémon TCG PocketArcanine ex still serves as a formidable Fire-type Pokémon. Your attack, “Infernal Onslaught”, deals a massive 120 damagecausing huge problems for the opponent. It costs three energy, two fire energy and one colorless energy, which makes it a very economical attack. However, this has a caveat; This Pokémon does 20 damage to self when attack is used.

You shouldn’t build your deck around Arcanine ex, although they must find room for Pokémon in an aggressive Fire-type strategy. By including potions in this deck and retaining them for Arcanine ex, you can neutralize the negative effect of “Hell Race“attack. Moltres ex will also maximize Acanine ex’s potential, allowing the card to gain energy quickly without wasting time KOing the opponent.

Ninetales
Ninetales is surprisingly cheap and lethal
Ninetales is an underrated card in Pokémon TCG Pocketoffering enough power to guarantee victories with the right strategy. With a respectable 90 HP, this Stage 1 Pokémon has the durability to develop its strong attack, “Flamethrower.” Flamethrower only costs two Fire Energy, deals a solid 90 damagealthough it requires discarding the Fire Energy after use. This small drawback is a cheap price to pay for such lethal damage. This makes Ninetales a valuable card for unlocking the aggression of Fire-type decks.
Nintales shines in a deck alongside Blaine and Rapidash in what is often seen as an economical but incredibly effective deck. Blaine increases Flamethrower’s damage by 30 damage, turning it into a devastating 120 damage attack. Meanwhile, Ponyta and Rapidash offer versatile options to occupy the Active Spot while Ninetales gathers energy. Overall, Ninetales is one of the best Fire-type Pokémon in the game, capable of crushing opponents with a powerful attack.

Rapidash
Rapidash is fast and reliable for Fire-Type decks
Rapidash is a Stage 1 Pokémon that evolves from Ponyta and excels in fast-paced Fire-type decks. That’s it “Fire Mane”The attack only requires one Fire Energy to deal 40 damage, allowing you to pressure opponents early in the battle. While 40 damage may not seem like much, the speed at which Rapidash can perform this attack makes it a prominent threat, putting pressure on the opponent. With 100 HP, it can withstand attacks from weaker Pokémon, making it a reliable choice for maintaining momentum.
Since Rapidash only has a withdrawal cost of one, this card can easily be exchanged for cards that have been accumulated in the bank. Ponyta and Rapidash are welcome additions to old Charizard deckswith solid attributes to ease the slow build speed of the ex card.

Moltres ex
Moltres Ex has no disadvantages

Charizard’s ex is by far the most powerful card in the Pokémon TCG Pockethaving a huge amount of HP and attack damage. This card can use “Bar,” which, for three energy, deals 60 damage. However, what makes this card so powerful is its attack.”Crimson Storm.” For four energy, Charizard ex can attack for 200 damage. This guarantees knocking down any Pokémon in front of you.
