Ultra Necrozma ex isn't just another flashy Dragon-type card. With its high-pressure attacks and brutal deck-disruption effect, this Ultra Beast can flip matches in your favor fast.
But to truly make the most of it, you need the right deck, the right support, and the right timing. This guide breaks it all down in a crisp, simple way.
Why Ultra Necrozma ex is So Dangerous
Ultra Necrozma ex's true strength lies not just in its raw power, but in how it
drains
your opponent's deck. It's move Shoegaze does 120 damage,
and
forces both players to discard the top 5 cards from their deck. That's massive in Pokémon TCG Pocket, where decks are capped at 20 cards.
Pull off Shoegaze twice, and your opponent could be left with nothing.
The only catch? It needs 2 Psychic + 2 Metal Energy to activate. So, how do you fuel this beast quickly? That's what the rest of this deck is all about.

On your bench, set up Giratina ex and Cosmog. Use Trainer cards to dig for Rare Candy and Lunala ex.
Turn 1: Attach Metal Energy to Ultra Necrozma.
Use Giratina's ability to attach a Psychic Energy from your Energy Zone (note: it ends your turn).
2. Mid-Game Power Play
Once Lunala ex is ready, use her Psychic Connect ability to shift all Psychic Energy from Giratina to Ultra Necrozma. Now, you're locked and loaded for Shoegaze.
Execute Shoegaze: 120 damage + discard top 5 cards from
both
decks.
Target fragile setups or opponents low on deck count. You'll burn through their options fast.
3. Late Game Sustain
If your first Necrozma gets knocked out, don't worry. That's where Lusamine comes in — she lets you pull back an Ultra Beast (Necrozma) and attach 2 random Energy from the discard pile.
Boom. You're back in it.
Ultra Necrozma ex is more than a heavy hitter. With the right setup, you'll be deleting decks before your opponent even gets their second attacker ready. If you're into fast, disruptive, and devastating plays, this deck's your new best friend in Pokémon TCG Pocket.

"Going to slap..." Johnny Manziel's scorching comment defending Cam Newton adds fuel to fiery Jalen Hurts media controversy

Johnny Manziel sides with Cam Newton (Imagn Images) Former Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel has once again taken to social media to defend a fellow football icon—and this time, his fiery words were aimed at Philadelphia Eagles superfan King Gillie. The controversy erupted after a viral video showed Gillie taunting Cam Newton for never winning a Super Bowl, a jab that didn't sit well with Manziel, who wasted no time clapping back. Johnny Manziel defends Cam Newton with savage clapback amid Jalen Hurts media drama targeting Eagles superfan During his birthday celebration, King Gillie—known for his passionate Eagles support—was seen holding the Vince Lombardi Trophy and mocking Newton's NFL résumé. 'Cam ain't never had one of these, and I ain't going back and forth with you,' he said into the mic. 'Thank you Jalen. Appreciate you Jalen. Love you Nick. Appreciate you Jalen. Cam Newton never had one of these.' The clip, shared by the parody 'Shannon Sharpes Burner' account on X, quickly made the rounds, drawing attention not only for the statement but for its timing. Less than 24 hours later, Johnny Manziel unleashed a scathing response on the platform. 'Yo King Gillie you may be the biggest f-cking loser on the planet. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo Talking like you've f-cking done anything on a football field. If I see you just know I'm going to slap the f-ck out of you, trust,' Manziel posted. Manziel's outrage wasn't just about football accolades—it was personal. Newton had appeared just the day before on Manziel's new podcast Glory Daze, where both men reflected on their shared past as underdog icons in college football. Newton and Manziel: Heads of the underdog empire In the podcast episode, Newton delved into what made their college football journeys so powerful and similar. 'When you think about Texas A&M and you think about Texas, who's the superior team? Texas. Right? When you think about Auburn and you think about Alabama, who's the superior team? Alabama. We were the heads of the underdogs.' Both Newton and Manziel etched their names into college football history—Newton in 2010 with Auburn and Manziel in 2012 with Texas A&M. Though Newton's NFL career included a league MVP award and a Super Bowl appearance, the mutual respect between the two remains rooted in their college dominance, not just professional achievements. Manziel's defense of Newton wasn't just about a friend—it was about legacy, respect, and reminding fans that greatness isn't always measured by trophies.
