Pokemon TCG:
2011 Worlds Championship Decks


Product images and deck lists have been released for the Worlds 2011 decks! The decks will hit store shelves over the next few months and have no specific release date.


Gustavo Wada - Junior Champion:
Megazone (Lightning)

World Champion Gustavo Wada's Megazone deck focuses on matching your opponent's hand size to take advantage of the potential free attacks of Yanmega! Cards like Judge and Copycat help keep those hand sizes balanced, and while Magnezone keeps cards coming from your deck, it's also building up for huge damage with Lost Burn. This is the kind of Champion's deck that will put you in the zone!

Christopher Kan - Senior Champion:
Reshiplosion (Fire)

Christopher Kan became World Champion with a simple, fast, and efficient deck that is hard to stop once it’s on fire!
