'''Gardevoir/Gallade''', with more {{TCG ID|Secret Wonders|Gardevoir|7}}-centric variations known as '''PLOX''' (short for ''Power Lock'' or ''Psychic Lock''), is considered by many to be the most dominant {{TCG|deck archetype}} of its era. After the release of the {{TCG|Secret Wonders}} expansion, players built on the obvious synergy between Gardevoir and {{TCG ID|Secret Wonders|Gallade|6}} to create early variants of the deck, which performed well in {{TCG|Pokémon Organized Play}} tournaments. Dominating the competitive play scene, Gardevoir/Gallade went on to win the {{TCG|2008 World Championships}}, played by two-time World Champion [[Jason Klaczynski]]. His variant, packaged as a [[Theme Deck (TCG)#2008 World Championships|world championships deck]], is known officially as ''Psychic Lock''. Later versions of the deck used {{TCG ID|Secret Wonders|Weavile|40}} as a means of energy acceleration, although they never performed as well as early versions of Gardevoir/Gallade. | '''Gardevoir/Gallade''', with more {{TCG ID|Secret Wonders|Gardevoir|7}}-centric variations known as '''PLOX''' (short for ''Power Lock'' or ''Psychic Lock''), is considered by many to be the most dominant {{TCG|deck archetype}} of its era.
