Hi people, Im looking for a tool card that will prevent my opponent from playing a supporter card such as Guzma or Boss's Orders so that they cant make me switch my active pokemon? Just sick and tired of losing close games because my son keeps making me switch my active with another pokemon...

Hehe, yeah that kind of defeats the purpose of playing the game Scrabble. Actually we do have one golden house rule when playing Pokemon, and that is any player is allowed to "undo" the last move as long as they have not attacked, if there is a more efficient way of doing something. I find this...

:D I think you are right there and its good to know that I ought to err on the side of pessimism. But when one is playing with kids who love bending rules and everybody is learning at the same time, well I think you get where Im heading with this.

11. If a card says "Look for "n" number of pokemon in your deck and put them onto your bench", if I dont have enough room on my bench, can I put them into my hand instead? I think Ive run out of questions for now! Thanks for your help :)

Thanks that cleared those two issues up for me :) Opps! That was not a typo but the way I have been playing the game incorrectly by flipping the coin for a poisoned Pokemon. Thanks for clarifying that one I can now change that and play it properly. 6. Can I still switch my active Pokemon...

Im not a regular here so I’m apologising in advance for my lack of etiquette. I play in isolation with my son and daughter and don’t get the opportunity to play online or go to meets at all to learn the rules effectively. Just a couple of simple TCG rules I’m not clear on. 1. If one of my...

Boom!

Torkoal is perfect thanks.

Hi there, Im looking for a non-EX/GX fire type that will burn the opponent. The only card I have is Heatmor with Searing Flame but ideally Im looking for a quick low energy cost burn so that Infernape's (UPrism) ability will triple the damage between turns. Infernape itself has Burst punch...

Thanks guys there are some really good points here. Yes Cynthia looks like a good card and much more effective than Hala mind you they both draw 4 if you disregard the other condition though Cynthia has the edge. Thanks again!

I checked out this card and have used him in friendly game play but I dont really understand why he is used so much. The biggest negative I have found is that you 'discard' your hand and if you use him twice there is a risk that you might run out of cards in your deck. I prefer Hala since you...

Yeah its funny how we can misinterpret what we read because we already have a preconceived idea of what we think it means and therefore dont actually understand its real meaning. Or perhaps the rules just arent very clear anyway :P Well thanks for clearing that all up for me, I have found those...

Number51x and Otaku, you have been very helpful. On a side note, I have read the rules downloaded from the Official PTCG and although they may seem straight forward, from a beginners point of view its sometimes hard to grasp the concept of game play when both myself and my opponent have never...

So thats a yes then that a switched pokemon can be made active again on my opponents turn? If thats the case then I do understand what you are saying and the benefits of switching.

Thanks CrownAxe appreciate your help. Just regarding question 1, what I mean is can my opponents pokemon that was switched out during my turn become active again during my opponents turn? It would seem a little pointless if my opponent can bring the same pokemon that was switched out by me to...
