Isaac (Japanese: タカハシ Takahashi) is the Club Master of the Lightning Club (Japanese: エレキクラブ Electric Club).

In Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!, he uses the スカイスパークデッキ Sky Spark Deck and later the ビリビリじばくデッキ Zapping Selfdestruct Deck.

The deck relies on using multiple Defenders to use Selfdestruct without getting knocked out. This can devastate Active and Benched Pokémon on the opponent's and user's team. He also has Gust of Wind cards to switch the opponent's more heavily damaged Pokémon with Pokémon with less damage to deal high damage more efficiently and knock out multiple Pokémon. The deck can be countered easily by using Fighting type cards like Sandshrew, Cubone, and Diglett and their evolutions. These cards have a limited resistance to damage from Electric types.
