Grasp of Darkness 5/10 This is a very effective removal spell indeed

When you reach this number, swap in Charizard ex with an X Speed card and start knocking out your opponent's cards with one attack each (No Pokmon card in the Genetic Apex list has enough HP to survive Charizard ex's Crimson Storm attack)
