🟡 Econ Cup – A4 Johto Series #1 🟡
“ In this economy? ” Let's see how you manage your resources when nothing is restricted!
Welcome to the Econ Cup, a weekly Pokémon Pocket tournament series brought to you by Xen – creator of the largest/ spiciest Pokémon Pocket YouTube channel with over 100K subscribers. Every week, we host competitive showdowns where only the smartest decks (and boldest trainers) make it out on top.
This is Week 1 of 4 — the Open Format. All cards from the new A4: Wisdom of Sky and Sea set are legal. There are no bans or restrictions... yet. But watch your back: starting Week 2, bans and deck restrictions will shake up the meta based on what dominated here.
🧠 Winners & top cut players will be featured on Xen’s YouTube channel the following day, with commentary and deck breakdowns. Bring your best list. You might just make the highlight reel.
