Pokemon TCG League Challenge: Top 2 Decklists [April 2024]

This past weekend Gamers Grove held our monthly Pokemon League Challenge! Out of the mix of 18 players two rose to the top: Trent with Charmander and Decoy with Ancient Box! The Charizard deck runs hot with a load of ways to get 'Zard into play ASAP to start smashing face. Ancient Box instead relies on the traditional Comfey engine to power out a full bench of Ancient Pokemon to unlock massive damage and cool synergies. What a cool top two!
