No matter which style you prefer, there’s a deck for everyone. Sakuya Ota’s Roaring Moon deck and Jesse Parker’s Miraidon ex deck both focus on fast, hard-hitting strategies that look to take quick Knock Outs right off the bat. Evan Pavelski’s Regidrago VSTAR deck has a toolbox of different Dragon-type attacks at its disposal that can either win the game immediately or perfectly lay out a plan to victory. If you’re into alternate strategies that require a calm, cool, and collected approach, Fernando Cifuente’s Iron Thorns ex deck slows things down with the featured Pokémon’s Initialization Ability and a slew of disruptive cards like Crushing Hammer.

By about 9.15am, the crowd had swelled to more than 1,000 people and obstructed several walkways in the area, the police said.


Videos posted on social media platforms show throngs of people outside the retail outlet, eager to get their hands on the latest Prismatic Evolutions set featuring fan-favourite Pokemon Eevee and its evolved forms.

One TikTok user said fans had started queueing from 11pm the night before. The police said that they received a call for assistance at about 6.10am and found more than 200 people gathered outside the store when they arrived. Minutes later, the group had swelled to over 500 people, before reaching its peak of more than 1,000 people around 9.15am.

The Pokemon Centre called off the product launch around 9.20am, and officers from the Airport Police Division helped with crowd dispersal.
