Ruling 1st turn .

[aishen]

i was confused reading a random post ..

anyway, what can i actually only play during the first turn. ??

thanks in advance ~_~

Pokemon(basics) and an energy,thats basically it if you start.
If you go second you can play T/S/St,basics and an energy.
Edit:
Sorry smeow......hurray ninja....

After set up and you go first, before your opponent, you can do everything except evolve any of your pokes or play any trainers, Stadiums and Supporters. However if your opponent goes first, you may use trainers, Stadiums and supporters but neither of you can evolve any pokemon until it's your second turn.

EDIT: Ninja'd...

That is correct. This is why cards like Call Energy, Cyclone Energy and the like are so vital, it is the best way to get around the "no trainer" rule on T1. Call energy is almost like a Rosanne's Research that will save your life if you go first.

and you can use powers too on the first turn.

No one said it, so.... You also can attack. It isn't like yugioh.

One last thing: You can also retreat.

 

[aishen]

can i do it?? isnt it funny if i did that?

 

[King Arceus]

Not necessarily. There are times when you may start with a Uxie in your hand but you choose to lay a Crobat G or something like it. You empty out your hand then drop the Uxie to refill it. Then retreat to it and attack so you can do damage on the first turn.

 

[aishen]

oooh.. is it always advisable or only occasional??

 

[Zyflair]

Consider the situation context of the game and just use common sense. Retreating on the first turn may work if it's for a purpose.

just as i thought .. thanks ~_~
