“Turtles on Top:” A Look at a New Top-Tier Deck

The Pokemon 2024 World Championships just finished, and Iron Thorns shocked the world with its victory over Roaring Moon.

There’s always that sense of early optimism at the beginning of the season. So many opportunities and chances to show off your talents, and players across the world chasing that elusive Worlds Invite. This season will definitely be tougher for the average player to make it, as Pokemon has altered their qualification system, so it’s important to be as prepared as you can be for each event coming up.

Baltimore Regionals is quickly approaching, which is expected to be a similar metagame to the World Championships. However, a lot of players have turned their eyes to the upcoming format with Stellar Crown. This new set is expected to shake up the format, and I am really excited to play this format at Dortmund and Louisville Regionals over the next month. 

Arguably the most hyped-up card from Stellar Crown is Terapagos. This is a card that has been getting a ton of hype paired up with Area Zero Underdepths.  I have begun working on deck lists for this deck, and I think it has a chance to be special in the next format. It has all the support it needs to go far, so let’s dive into exactly how the deck works.
