Description

Tsubasa Nakamura achieved amazing results and rose to the level of World Champion with his notably relentless deck that uses Skuntank 's Poké-Power to Poison at will, then Toxicroak to really pile on the extra damage. And with Luxray LV.X and its Bright Look Poké-Power to change out his opponent's Active Pokémon, Crowned Tiger truly rules!
