>I want to learn the game, where do I begin?
Download PTCGL at https://tcg.pokemon.com/en-us/tcgl
The game has a quick tutorial and a bunch of decent decks to get you started against other beginners or against the AI. Some of those decks are very close to meta too. You can also go to your local game store and see if people are playing Pokémon.

>I know how to play, how do I make my own deck?
You have a decent beginner's guide at https://www.justinbasil.com/guide
There's also the old /tcg/ guide at https://imgur.com/a/W4NkOu6
After that, look up meta decks and try to reverse engineer them to see how things work.

>Where to find meta decks?

It would be a crazy ability on a 330hp ex in the current standard format.

>>56493607
Misty seems fuckin busted in a version of the game this simplified.
>>
>>56493620
it sucks becuase theres no candy, and if there is that we haven't seen, it is also a supporter because items don't even exist in the game yet. So gengar would be out turn 3

Errata this as "up to 3 evolution Pokemon"
How broken it gets?
>>
>>56494284
Doesn't really change much, stage 2 decks are rare candy sluts anyway.
We have essentially a better version of that as a supporter soon. The ex clause isn't really an issue since the only non-ex stage 2s worth running is bax and dusknoir. While being able to fetch fez, ogerpons etc is such a big upside

It'd see more play for sure, but it's nothing broken.

Didn't they say that you can unlock items and other trainer cards by progressing or something?

>44.7% chance to start a specific card in the 5 card opening hand if you play 2 copies of it in a 20 card deck
Farfetch'd seems too good to not include in every deck. You'd only be scared of a stage 1 that does 60 damage for 1 energy.
>>
>>56494412
It's HP is really low for a basic and doesn't evolve or hit anything for weakness. These little fodder mons aren't so great when your opponent only needs to take 3 prizes to win.
>>
>>56494412
>>56494442
Are there switches? Or just manual retreating?
If there's switch out items the strat is to probably have a fatmon like snorlax tanking active while you build an ex on the bench capable of OHKOing stuff. 3 prizes is way too quick to have sub 100 HP mons sat in active
>>
>>56494442
If you go second, the foddermon can do 80 damage before giving up a point if the opponent doesn't have a 1 energy 60 damage attack.

>The player going first can’t draw a card on their first turn or use an Energy. You can use a Supporter card. You can’t have more than 10 cards in your hand.

The set list is incomplete. There might be some kind of switch card unlocked outside of the genetic apex set.

>The set list is incomplete. There might be some kind of switch card unlocked outside of the genetic apex se
This is all the cards from the main set, the stuff you pull from packs. There are item cards that you earn from tutorials and I haven't seen a full list of them yet.

Skeledirge – Fire – HP180
Stage 2 – Evolves from Crocalor

Ability: Unaware
Prevent all effects of attacks from your opponent’s Pokémon done to this Pokémon. (Damage is not an effect.)

[R][C] Flare Recital: 60+ damage. This attack does 20 more damage for each Benched Pokémon (both yours and your opponent’s).

Weakness: Water
Resistance: None
Retreat: 3

Pairs well with tera skeledirge if stage 2s ever get easier to put in play.

Trying to build a fun Hydrapple deck with Arven engine to help find Rare Candy/Ultra Ball. But what is a good tool card to go with a Hydrapple deck? Big air balloon? Leftovers?

Good attack and ability but suffers from the issue all stages 2 have. Too difficult to get into play, and too difficult to get energy onto. They really need to add some more cards to better help them, relying on rare candy constantly is awful. At least give a universal irida type for them

Hardcore YGO and casual MTG player here, welcome to literal paradise. This game is so extremely healthy and fun compared to anything in those two gay games.
