The 'Don is the name of the deck used by Jesse Parker, who placed third in the Masters Division at the 2024 Pokémon World Championships. It is one of the 2024 World Championship Decks released on May 16, 2025. Each deck comes with a two-sided playmat/poster, an event booklet, a Pokémon Trading Card Game Live code card, and a special Worlds 2024 deck box, pin, and coin. The cards included in the deck are not the exact prints used by Parker, but are the most recent, lowest-rarity print with any Holofoil removed. The cards have a unique card back and Parker's signature, and in place of the set symbol and rarity, they have a note stating, "This card cannot be used in official tournaments". The signature card displayed in the packaging (Miraidon ex) has a special gold version of Jesse's signature, while the rest of the deck has a silver signature.
Description
Packaging
Jesse Parker struck like lightning, riding Miraidon all the way to the Top 4. This deck can really go off in the early turns, setting up a full Bench with Miraidon ex's Tandem Unit Ability and powering up quickly with Electric Generator. Make a trip to the Town Store to boost your team with Pokémon Tool Cards, and use Abilities and Supporter cards to draw through the deck and find what you need. Iron Hands ex and Raikou V can serve as backup attackers...and you might just get an important Knock Out by attacking with Squawkabilly ex!
Booklet
Jesse had been "riding Miraidon" all season long, to great effect! His playtest group in Ohio helped him tweak and tune the deck list, and he said "a very similar list got Top 16 at NAIC, so that confirmed to me that the deck was real." He's a fan of the new Fezandipiti ex: "I knew the card was good, but it was even better than I thought." Jesse credits his family and friends with helping him get to Worlds—in his Top 8 winner's interview, he mentioned that his sister had traveled to Hawai'i with him and was "probably out kayaking somewhere" while he was cleaning up at the tournament!
