There are many people who would never pick-up a trading card came, regardless of if they're a fan of that particular franchise or not. The idea of jumping into a TGC can be intimidating, especially when you don't know the rules or how to construct a formidable deck. The Pokemon TCG online guide|Https://pokemontcgdeck.com/ TCG Trainer Challenge has changed all of this. Not only does it guide new players through the steps of battle, but it gives the veterans a new place to practice and battle their frie


As a result, these cards have rapidly become the most expensive singles in Mega Evolutions . Mega Gardevoir ex starts at $400, and Mega Lucario ex could cost you anywhere from $700 to a whopping $1,299 , per TCGPlay

There are currently over seventy new cards to collect from the Sun and Moon expansion. All these new Pokémon, abilities, attacks and items are worth studying as you never know what can happen now. It's up to you how to build a deck and hopefully reading the information here will help put you on the path to victory. The themed decks and booster packs are just the beginning. Pokémon Sun and Moon are completely rewriting the rules of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Make sure you are ready for the trials to come.

Pokémon cards have gone through countless changes over the years. Some have been cosmetic, others are strategic and a couple just strange. Regardless, there is always something new to discover with every generation of Pokémon. Most recently, Pokémon Sun and Moon , the video game, released around the world for trainers to catch unique Pokémon, encounter powerful beasts, harness bonding attacks and more. It's a journey unlike any other and now it has all translated to the Pokémon Trading Card Game.

Our haul turned out to be a fantastic pick-up for Pokémon fans. Any card collector will need to get the Charizard-GX Premium Collection, and gamers shouldn't pass up the opportunity for plushies either! The cards can be purchased starting September 24 at Target stores but other locations in October. Pre-order Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon before its November 17 release to get the plush key chains. Catch them all, collect them all and enjoy them all!

Picking up the box gets you a number of fun goodies that fans can enjoy. Three cards are already displayed front and center: Charmander, Charmeleon and Charizard are shown to let you know exactly what is coming. Each one looks pretty useful with great HP for Charmander and average attacks on Charmeleon. Then the Charizard-GX card has a huge surge meant for taking down your opponents in a massive way as it has an enormous 250 HP, which makes it pretty much built like a tank. Three energies of any kind allows it to use Wing Attack and inflict 70 damage, that's enough to take out almost all Pokémon in one to three hits! Then comes Crimson Storm which deals a whopping 300 damage! You have to discard three Fire-type energy from Charizard but it will end up becoming a deciding factor during any battle. The GX attack is sure to be helpful if you're being strategic. Raging Out allows you to discard the top ten cards of your enemy's deck. That makes it great to have up your sleeve if a match has been dragging along and can knock them out by reducing their deck to zero. Less cards means an advantage in your favor! Charizard-GX packs a lot into not only obliterating Pokémon but dismantling any rival's morals all in a single crushing turn that they'll have a hard time recovering from!

Now, we come to the Roaring Heat deck introducing the crushing power of Incineroar. There are Fire, Normal and Fighting-types included with this bundle. Incineroar has Fire Fang which will induce a burn on the opposing Pokémon as well as 30 damage. It also uses its signature attack, Darkest Lariat, which you must flip two coins and deal 100 damage, for every heads. This move has the potential to unleash 200 damage, double that for anything weak to Fire-types and it can take down basically anything. Incineroar's 160 HP makes for a great advantage in order to build up its attacks and keep flipping for heads.

While each deck gives you a great basis for building a team, there are brand new ways to play if opening a few booster packs. You know the Alolan region is home to some familiar faces. Some Pokémon from the Kanto region have been given a makeover in generation VII. In the Trading Card Game, those few individuals have been given a unique trait which will serve them well in battle. These Pokémon are allowed to use an attack without using up any energy cards. They may be weak or non-damaging but can certainly help. Alolan Persian uses Taunt which allows you to switch your opponent's active Pokémon with one from their bench. Alolan Rattata inflicts 20 damage with Gnaw. Mixing a few of these into your deck can really throw an opponent off their game. With no energy to use, it makes sense to at least include something that can chip away at the enemy while they try and build up for an attack. It can really mess with their own strategy and frees up room for more cards in your own deck.
