Morning Dew Edition>I want to learn the game, where do I begin?Download PTCGL at https://tcg.pokemon.com/en-us/tcglThe 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/guideThere's also the old /tcg/ guide at https://imgur.com/a/W4NkOu6After that, look up meta decks and try to reverse engineer them to see how things work.>Where to find meta decks?For big irl events, go to https://limitlesstcg.com/decksFor online events, go to https://play.limitlesstcg.com/decks?game=PTCGFor japanese events, go to https://pokecabook.com/archives/1417Previous thread: >>56473372Old /tcg/ pastebin: https://pastebin.com/Ge95YuMA

>>56493607>when Gengar ex is in the active, your opponent can't play any supportersThank fuck this isn't real.
>>56493620It would be a crazy ability on a 330hp ex in the current standard format.
>>56493607Misty seems fuckin busted in a version of the game this simplified.
>>56493620it 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
>>56493607>genwunners are pogging for THISwait till they see actual TCG cards lol
Errata this as "up to 3 evolution Pokemon"How broken it gets?
>>56494284Doesn'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
>>56494284It'd see more play for sure, but it's nothing broken.>>56493908Didn't they say that you can unlock items and other trainer cards by progressing or something?
>>56493587>Collectorfags and their slab retardation.
>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 deckFarfetch'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.
>>56494412It'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>>56494442Are 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
>>56494442If 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.>>56494456https://www.serebii.net/tcgpocket/geneticapex/The set list is incomplete. There might be some kind of switch card unlocked outside of the genetic apex set.
>>56494468>The set list is incomplete. There might be some kind of switch card unlocked outside of the genetic apex seThis 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.
>auto battle optionLMAO, lazy fuckers
>>56494568What is the game even for at that point? Are you just collecting rare JPEGs?
>>56494568Gacha brain dead lady and gentlemen
Skeledirge – Fire – HP180Stage 2 – Evolves from CrocalorAbility: UnawarePrevent all effects of attacks from your opponent’s Pokémon done to this Pokémon.

This attack does 20 more damage for each Benched Pokémon (both yours and your opponent’s).Weakness: WaterResistance: NoneRetreat: 3Pairs 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?
I can't believe Maractus is dead...
>>56493777imagine paying money for thisi have seen better cards on deviantartcan we please ignore pocket app in the tcg thread? this thread is for discussing the real game not some cashgrab faggy app :(
>>56495490forest seal stone & rotom Vevolution tech machine bravery charm?
>>56495306Good 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
>Pocket gets nice looking sleeves>We get ugly ones It's not fair

>never played pokemon TCGplayed MTG and YGO for years where should I start here?
>>56497160>played MTG and YGO for yearsHardcore YGO and casual MTG player here, welcome to literal paradise.

>want to play a couple of games before bed>end up playing against a Garde deck>they take 5 minutes each turn drawing cards and shitting damage counters everywhereGuess I'm only playing one game then. At least I won lel
cool blog post, bot
questionback in the 90s + 00s where did they sell booster boxes? like the unopened ones? and did they sell single booster packs just by opening booster boxes? or am I misremembering?
>>56497716>>56491701
>>56497726thx
Is single prize ever viable in tournaments? Be honest
>>56498677Kinda.
>Control winning all the online tourneys as of lateSo uhh when are they gonna print some counters for it?
