What is the difference between EX and GX Pokemon cards?
EX cards were a staple in the Pokemon TCG scene, pulling a lot of weight with their powerful attacks and high HP. But, they had a downside where if your opponent knocked one out, they could take 2 Prize cards instead of one. GX cards, introduced in the Sun & Moon series, upped the ante with not just strong attacks and beefy HP, but also with a unique GX move that could turn the tide of battle. Only, you can use one GX move per game, so strategy is key. Plus, knocking out a GX card also gives your opponent 2 Prize cards.

GX cards totally changed the game with their GX moves, making them way cooler than EX cards, IMHO. EX cards were cool and all, but GXs bring that extra strategic layer to the battlefield.
Honestly, EX cards had their moment, but GX cards with their unique GX moves are where it鈥檚 at. It added so much depth to the game strategy.
