This was my idea before Pocket was even a thing 🤬! Nyaah! Wish Pocket was just the half deck thing XD XD. Felt bummed! Although when teaching a niece how to play I used the PokeCatch format to teach energy/types, then moved it to Catch-Attack. Using the Pokemon they'd 'caught' we'd battle...

Giovanni rapped his fingers against the side of his seat, watching as his prized clone army was defeated one by one. He had pumped these clones full of every status boost item known to man, imbued them with the power of that mutated space virus to keep their DNA together so they didn't fall...

Once there had been a dream. To protect the world from devastation. To unite all nation's beneath the stars under the rule of Team Rocket. It didn't matter. His head scientist was busying himself with a rubik's cube. It didn't take much to recruit the mad puzzle-master to his organization...

Yeaaah, kind of lost gas there. But Giovanni wasn’t concerned. He called back his Rhydon and tossed the pokeball to one of his attendants standing behind him. “I see that you trained your Pokemon with the utmost dedication. You understand what it means to build an arsenal of powerful...

Do what you want?

And then something more Poke proper: Tonight, was the night. For the first time, two former Pokemon Champions were going to battle for the chance to challenge the reigning champion, Lance the Dragon Master, for his title! But what made this battle special? Especially to future Pokemon...

This is the kind of time when the TCG could reverse the HP/DMG Power creep, but we got Mega's incoming so.... 2030 - 400 HP Pokemon lets goooo!!!

this year will be Arcanine’s year! We’re going Meta, baby!!!

This hypothetical format is me with my decks :p. Nidoking is cool XD. Might try and write a story in the vein of my custom First Battle Format. 151 only with the curated trainer cards. I might buy this for myself XD. My Nidoking deck is a casual Expanded deck, but its my favorite one XD.

And now for the last pieces I'd written for the TCG: Alan shuffled his deck. He laid out his prize cards and drew his hand. He asked, “you ready?” Niko didn’t answer; instead he drew his seven cards and laid out two pokemon facedown. Alan put one card facedown and grabbed a die from his...

And the next of the assorted TCG Snippits: Jim swung his arm out, pointed at Joey, and shouted, “I challenge you to a bat-to a duel!” Joey, midbite through his five-layered ham and cheese sandwich, stuck up his thumb. Five minutes later, the two snapped on their PokeGear’s and strapped on...

Wooo! Technically uncle: :p. Its what I told my nephew when he started playing Pokemon. Since then I've never won a battle against his Charizard deck XD. Really too it to heart! Back in the day - like 2 years ago - the first decks I made for my kids were 30-card half decks I based off the...

I'm hoping to get an ETB. A local Gamestop had a rip and submit event when I went to check for cards - my kids have been complaining for weeks there's never any cards - and there was a little table with a couple energy cards and the Prismatic Evolution booklet that comes with the etb. They let...

The little ones in my family have complained to me - after smiting me - that there's nowhere to play Pokemon. The friends that do like Pokemon collect, not play. I've looked - my local scene died pre-COVID, and the 1 store left is MTG/YGO focused. The libraries used to host monthly clubs last...

And the Spiritual Sequel: Writing this is hard. 1: IDK how to make TCG battle exciting. 2: Am I busying the scene with too much interaction? "Its time to battle!" Jim and Cristo cried out. They flipped over the Active Pokemon. Fighting Machop appeared in front of Jim. Razor-hand Scyther...
