Brit’s Analysis of Zoroark/Lycanroc and Gardevoir-GX for Latin America’s International Championship “I think this would easily be my top choice for this weekend (which, of course, can still be League Cups for those like me not going to Brazil). The power of this deck has been proven many times this format and in the format before it, so I do not think I really need explain much of how the deck functions.

In all seriousness, there’s a good likelihood this card sees play, and not just with things like M Rayquaza-EX. I could see this finding niche use in things that have a large number of fragile Bench-sitters. When accompanied with another Stadium, this card now serves as a…
A warm-up of running around gets fire energy coursing through this Pokémon’s body. Once that happens, it’s ready to fight at full power. (Scorbunny)
It’s said that this Pokémon was formed when an ancient clay tablet was drawn to a vengeful spirit. (Galarian Yamask)
While its burning body is already dangerous on its own, this excessively hostile Pokémon also has large and very sharp fangs. (Centiskorch)
