The '''Pokémon Trading Card Game''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンカードゲーム''', ''Pokémon Card Game''), often abbreviated as '''Pokémon TCG''' or just '''TCG''', is a tabletop game that involves collecting, trading and playing with Pokémon themed playing cards. It has its own set of rules but uses many motifs and ideas derived from the [[core series|video games]]. There are {{TCG|Pokémon|Pokémon cards}} for every [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|species]] of Pokémon, as well as {{TCG|Trainer card}}s featuring characters, items and other themes of the franchise (each with a different use) and {{TCG|Energy card}}s to power various actions. The artwork for the cards is provided by numerous artists.

[[File:JPCardback.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Original back of Japanese cards]]
The Pokémon Trading Card Game was originally published in Japan in 1996 by [[Media Factory]]. While other Pokémon card series existed in the past, this was the first card game based on the [[Pokémon]] series. The first Pokémon TCG sets took inspiration from the then released {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}} video games and initially featured illustrations by [[Ken Sugimori]], [[Mitsuhiro Arita]] and [[Keiji Kinebuchi]]. Soon new expansions began to release with many new artists contributing artwork. Three years later in 1999, Pokémon TCG was introduced in North America by [[Wizards of the Coast]] with the [[Base Set]], and worldwide soon after. In 2003, Wizards of the Coast's license was transferred to the [[The Pokémon Company International]] by [[Nintendo]].
The Pokémon Trading Card Game was originally published in Japan in October 1996 by [[Media Factory]]. While other series of collectible Pokémon cards existed in the past (such as the [[Pocket Monsters Carddass Trading Cards]] released in September 1996), this was the first card game based on the [[Pokémon]] series. The first Pokémon TCG sets took inspiration from the then released {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}} video games and initially featured illustrations by [[Ken Sugimori]], [[Mitsuhiro Arita]] and [[Keiji Kinebuchi]]. Soon new [[List of Pokémon Trading Card Game expansions|expansions]] began to release with many new artists contributing artwork.

In 2003, Wizards of the Coast's license was transferred to [[The Pokémon Company International]].


New features constantly appear in the Pokémon TCG. With the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} video games, the ''Neo Series'' (a newer series of expansions), started bringing several [[Generation II|new Pokémon]] into play. The {{TCG|Metal}} and {{TCG|Darkness}} {{TCG|type}}s of Pokémon cards were also introduced, along with {{TCG|Light Pokémon}} and {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}}. These were eventually discontinued to prevent confusion with the Darkness type, but returned briefly with the release of {{TCG|Neo Destiny}}. The ''e-Card Series'' used [[Game Boy Advance]] add-on [[e-Reader]] to display Pokédex data about the Pokémon, play a minigame, play various tunes in a Melody Box, or activate a special attack for that Pokémon. The ''EX Series '' was released next (the first series released by [[The Pokémon Company International]] instead of [[Wizards of the Coast]]), introducing the stronger {{TCG|Pokémon-ex}} into the game. The ''Diamond & Pearl Series'' brought {{TCG|Pokémon LV.X}}, which were stronger, "Leveled-up" versions of final evolutions. Pokémon LV.X essentially replaced Pokémon-ex and continued until the {{TCG|Platinum: Arceus}} expansion. The ''HeartGold & SoulSilver Series'' featured two more types of card, {{TCG|Pokémon LEGEND}}, two-part cards with one Pokémon on each card, and {{TCG|Pokémon Prime}}, Pokémon with powerful and/or tactical attacks. With the release of {{TCG|Black & White}}, {{TCG|Poké-Power}}s ({{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Poké-POWER}}s and {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Poké-BODY}}s) were combined into one mechanic and renamed {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Ability|Abilities}}. ''Pokémon-ex'' returned as {{TCG|Pokémon-EX}} in the ''Black & White Series'' starting with the {{TCG|Next Destinies}} expansion. ''M Pokémon-EX'' were introduced in {{TCG|XY}} expansion and introduce the [[Mega Evolution]] mechanic featured in [[Pokémon X and Y]] to the TCG.  The {{TCG|Dragon}} Pokémon {{TCG|type}} was introduced in the {{TCG|Dragon Vault}} expansion of the ''Black & White Series''.  The ''XY Series'' introduced the {{TCG|Fairy}} {{TCG|type}} Pokémon.
With the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} video games, the ''[[#Neo Series|Neo Series]]'', the second series of [[List of Pokémon Trading Card Game expansions|expansions]], brought several [[Generation II|new Pokémon]] into play. The {{TCG|Metal}} and {{TCG|Darkness}} {{TCG|type}}s of Pokémon cards were also introduced, along with {{TCG|Light Pokémon}} and {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}}.

With the release of the ''EX Series'' worldwide, Pokémon TCG started publishing directly under [[Nintendo]] via its whole owned subsidiary [[The Pokémon Company International]], instead of [[Wizards of the Coast]]. In 2006, [[The Pokémon Company]] replaced Media Factory in distributing the cards in Japan starting with the ''Diamond & Pearl Series''.

{{main|Glossary (TCG)}}
:''See the {{TCG|Appendix:Glossary}} for a definition of most the Pokémon Trading Card Game terms.''
The ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' is a two player game for all ages.  Each player builds a [[Deck]] of sixty (60) cards using a combination of various ''"{{TCG|Pokémon|Pokémon cards}}"'' (the main type of cards used to battle), ''"{{TCG|Trainer card|Trainer cards}}"'' (cards with special effects), and ''"{{TCG|Energy card|Energy cards}}"'' (cards that are required to perform most "''{{TCG|Attack|attacks}}''"). New cards and decks are constantly being released, and players may purchase "''{{TCG|Booster pack|Booster packs}}''" to integrate these cards into their own decks or purchase pre-made "''{{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Trainer kit|Trainer kits}}''" or "''{{TCG|Theme deck|Theme decks}}''" that already have all the cards needed to play. The ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' officially requires a deck of 60 cards for {{TCG|Standard format|Standard}} or {{TCG|Expanded format|Expanded}} play, though shorter {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Match|matches}} can be held with "''{{TCG|Half deck|Half-decks}}''" consisting of 30 cards instead. During a 60 card match, only four of any one card, excluding {{TCG|Energy card|Basic Energy}} cards, are allowed in each deck. This is further limited to two of any one card in a half-deck match. Many fans have also created their own game rules and playing methods and have websites devoted to providing alternative playing methods. These rules and methods are not allowed in [[Play! Pokémon]] competitions.

===Who goes first?===
===Setting Up to Play===
A game of the ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' is called a "''{{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Match}}''". To begin a match, players need a {{TCG|Coin}} or a six-sided die (where the ''even number'' sides represent ''Heads'' and the ''odd number'' sides represent ''Tails''). One player calls ''heads'' or ''tails'', while the other player flips the coin or rolls the die. If the player calling the coin flip gets his choice (heads or tales), that player gets to choose which player goes first. If the player calling the coin flip does not get his choice, the player flipping the coin gets to choose which player goes first. The player who goes first is not allowed to {{TCG|Attack}} on that player's first turn.

One player calls ''heads'' or ''tails'', while the other player flips the coin or rolls the die. If the player calling the coin flip gets their choice (heads or tails), that player gets to choose which player goes first. If the player calling the coin flip does not get their choice, the player flipping the coin gets to choose which player goes first. The player who goes first is not allowed to {{TCG|Attack|attack}} or play any {{TCG|Supporter card|Supporter cards}} on that player's first turn. In best-of-three match play, after a game has been completed, the loser of that game decides who goes first in the next game instead of determining it by a coin flip. This decision is made at the same point during setup that the coin flip would take place.<!--Dead link: <ref>[https://assets.pokemon.com//assets/cms2/pdf/play-pokemon/rules/play-pokemon-tournament-rules-handbook-03312021-en.pdf Play! Pokémon Tournament Rules Handbook]</ref>-->


===Setup===
After determining which player goes first, both players must {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Shuffle|shuffle}} their own decks and allow their opponent to make a deck cut; alternatively, the opponent may choose to shuffle the other player's deck and allow the deck owner to make a deck cut. Each player then places their deck faces-down in the play area or "{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Field|field}}" in a north/south orientation, with the short sides of cards facing each player, and any card sleeve openings facing the opponent. The players then each take seven cards from the top of their respective decks. These cards go into their {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hand|hand}}. Players then place at least one {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} from their hand face down into play: one to the {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Spot}} and up to five onto the {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench}}. Next, each player sets aside six cards from the top of their deck face down as {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Prize Card|Prize cards}}. Finally, each player flips over their Active and Benched Pokémon and the game starts.
After determining which player goes first, both players place their {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Shuffle|Shuffled deck}} face down on the upper right side of their respective half of the player area or "''{{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Field}}''". The field is roughly split in half with each player utilizing the half closest to them. The players then each take seven cards from the top of their respective decks. These cards go into their "''{{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Hand}}''". Players then place one {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} from their hand face down in front of them toward the upper center of their half of the field as their "''{{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}}''". If they have more than one Basic Pokémon, they may place the rest face down directly in from of them in their "''{{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Bench}}''". No more than five Pokémon may occupy a given player’s Bench at the same time. {{DL|Evolution|In the TCG|Evolved Pokémon}} count as only one Pokémon when in play on the field. If a player does not have any Basic Pokémon in their hand during setup, they must reshuffle all the cards in their hand back into their deck, and then draw seven more cards. Repeat this process until each player can play a Basic Pokémon as their Active Pokémon. If a player has to reshuffle to get a Basic Pokémon into play, that player’s opponent gets to take an extra card from the top of their deck and put it into their hand (one card per each reshuffle). Next, each player sets aside six cards from the top of their deck face down to the left side of their half of the field. These six cards are their "''{{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Prize Card|Prize cards}}''". Finally, each player reveals (or flips over) their Active and Bench Pokémon.
 
====Mulligan====
If a player does not have any Basic Pokémon in their hand while setting up to play, after their opponent sets aside the Prize cards, they must take a mulligan. For each mulligan a player takes, that player’s opponent may draw a card.
 
If both players had to take mulligans, the player that took fewer mulligans may draw a number of cards up to the difference in the numbers of mulligans. This means if the player took 1 mulligan and the opponent took 3, the player may draw up to 2 cards.


===Turns===
===Turns===
A player’s turn consists of the following:
At the start of each player's turn, they must draw a card. Then, they may take any of the following actions in any order they like.
# First, draw a card from the top of that player's deck;
* Attach up to one {{TCG|Energy card}} from their hand to one of their Pokémon  
# Attach one {{TCG|Energy card}} to one of that player’s Pokémon in play (either {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon|Active}} or {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Bench|Bench Pokémon}});
* Play as many {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} from their hand onto their Bench as they like
# Play {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} to that player's Bench,
* {{DL|Evolution|In the TCG|Evolve}} as many of their Pokémon as they like
# {{DL|Evolution|In the TCG|Evolve}} any of that player's Pokémon in play;
* [[Retreat cost|Retreat]] their Active Pokémon up to one time
# [[Retreat cost|Retreat]] that player's Active Pokémon if the Active Pokémon can satisfy the {{TCG|Energy card}} retreat cost;
* Play as many {{TCG|Trainer card|Trainer cards}} in their {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hand|hand}} as they like (but only one Supporter card and one Stadium card)
# Play any {{TCG|Trainer card|Trainer cards}} in that player's {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Hand}} pertaining to the rules on each Trainer card and then typically placing that Trainer card face up in the player’s "''{{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Discard Pile}}''", which is locked on the right side of the player's field just below that player's deck;
* Use any {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Ability|Abilities}} or {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Pokémon Power|Pokémon Powers}}
# Use any {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Ability|Abilities}} or {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Pokémon Power|Pokémon powers}} that appear on that player's Active or Bench Pokémon, and
{{TCG|Attack|Attacking}} will end a player's turn regardless of how many other actions they have taken, but a player may choose to end their turn without attacking.
# Finally, "''{{TCG|Attack}}''" if that player has the appropriate {{TCG|Energy card|Energy card(s)}} attached on that player's {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}}. Attacking '''always ends''' that player’s turn. The first player to have a turn is not allowed to attack, but all other actions are allowed as described above.
Other than the first and last actions, players may perform any action in any order. Players alternate turns until one player wins the game.


===Damage===
===Finishing a match===
Pokémon {{TCG|Attack}}s typically cause {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Damage}} or apply a {{TCG|Special Conditions|Special condition}}.  Special conditions have their own unique rules. Damage to all Pokémon in play is tracked with {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Damage|Damage Counters}} or dice. When the damage to a given Pokémon equals or exceeds that Pokémon’s {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Hit Points}}, it is "''{{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Knock Out|Knocked Out}}''" and placed face up in the player’s {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Discard Pile}} along with any other cards that were attached to it (such as {{TCG|Energy card|Energy cards}}). When an {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}} is knocked out, the player's whose Pokémon was knocked out must replace the former Active Pokémon with another Pokémon from that player's {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Bench}}. At the same time, the player who knocked out his or her opponent's Pokémon gets to take any one of that player's remaining face down {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Prize card|Prize cards}} and put that prize card into that player's hand.
To finish a match, players must take their six [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Prize Card|Prize cards]] by {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Knock Out|Knocking Out}} their opponent's Pokémon by using {{TCG|attack}}s to reduce the opponent's [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Hit Points|HP to zero]]. The player that does so wins the game.


===Winning a match===
One player may also run out of Pokémon in play, i.e. they have no [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Active Pokémon|Active Pokémon]] or [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Bench|Benched Pokémon]]. The player that runs out of Pokémon in play loses the game.
To win a match, players must:
# Take their six [[Glossary (TCG)#Prize Card|prize cards]] by {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Knock Out|knocking out}} their opponent's Pokémon by using {{TCG|Attack|attacks}} to reduce the opponent's [[Glossary (TCG)#Hit Points|HP to zero]].
# Players may also win when their opponent ''runs out of Pokémon'' on the field of play, which includes their [[Glossary (TCG)#Active Pokémon|Active Pokémon]] and [[Glossary (TCG)#Bench|Bench Pokémon]], or
# If their opponent ''cannot draw a card'' from their [[Deck]] at the beginning of their turn.


==Card types==
At the beginning of a turn, if a player must draw a card from an empty [[deck]], that player loses the game. Winning or losing can also be achieved directly with the effect of {{cat|Cards that finish the game|certain cards}}.

The Pokémon Trading Card Game (Japanese: ポケモンカードゲーム, Pokémon Card Game), often abbreviated as Pokémon TCG or just PTCG (Japanese: ポケカ Pokéca), is a tabletop game developed by Creatures, Inc. that involves collecting, trading and playing with Pokémon-themed playing cards. It has its own set of rules but uses many motifs and ideas derived from the video games. There are Pokémon cards for every species of Pokémon, as well as Trainer cards featuring characters, items and other themes of the franchise (each with a different use) and Energy cards to power attacks. The artwork for the cards is often created specifically for the TCG by numerous artists, though occasionally pre-existing art made for the core series is used.

The Pokémon TCG is a popular and steady aspect of the Pokémon franchise and is played and enjoyed by many fans. As of the end of March 2023, over 52.9 billion Pokémon Trading Card Game cards have been produced worldwide in 14 languages, and being sold in 89 countries and regions.[1] The game is part of the Play! Pokémon organized play along with the video game series and is also used in the Pokémon Trading Card Game Live.

History

Original back of Japanese cards

The Pokémon Trading Card Game was originally published in Japan in October 1996 by Media Factory. While other series of collectible Pokémon cards existed in the past (such as the Pocket Monsters Carddass Trading Cards released in September 1996), this was the first card game based on the Pokémon series. The first Pokémon TCG sets took inspiration from the then released Pokémon Red, Green, and Blue video games and initially featured illustrations by Ken Sugimori, Mitsuhiro Arita and Keiji Kinebuchi. Soon new expansions began to release with many new artists contributing artwork. Three years later in 1999, Pokémon TCG was introduced in North America by Wizards of the Coast with the Base Set, and worldwide soon after. In 2003, Wizards of the Coast's license was transferred to The Pokémon Company International.

With the release of Pokémon Gold and Silver video games, the Neo Series, the second series of expansions, brought several new Pokémon into play. The Metal and Darkness types of Pokémon cards were also introduced, along with Light Pokémon and Dark Pokémon. These were eventually discontinued to prevent confusion with the Darkness type, but returned briefly with the release of the Neo Destiny expansion. The e-Card Series used Game Boy Advance add-on e-Reader to display Pokédex data about the Pokémon, play a minigame, play various tunes in a Melody Box, or activate a special attack for that Pokémon. The EX Series was released next, the first series produced by The Pokémon Company International instead of Wizards of the Coast, which introduced the stronger Pokémon-ex into the game. The Diamond & Pearl Series brought Pokémon LV.X, which were stronger, "Leveled-up" versions of final evolutions. Pokémon LV.X essentially replaced Pokémon-ex and continued until the Platinum: Arceus expansion. The HeartGold & SoulSilver Series featured two more types of card, Pokémon LEGEND, two-part cards with one Pokémon on each card, and Pokémon Prime, Pokémon with powerful and/or tactical attacks. With the release of the Black & White expansion, Poké-Powers (Poké-POWERs and Poké-BODYs) were combined into one mechanic and renamed Abilities. Pokémon-ex returned as Pokémon-EX in the Black & White Series starting with the Next Destinies expansion. The Dragon Pokémon type was introduced in the Dragon Vault expansion of the Black & White Series. M Pokémon-EX were introduced in the XY expansion and introduce the Mega Evolution mechanic featured in the Pokémon X and Y video games to the TCG. The XY Series also introduced the Fairy type Pokémon. Pokémon-GX was introduced in the Sun & Moon Series.

With the release of the EX Series worldwide, Pokémon TCG was published by Pokémon USA and distributed by Nintendo of America, instead of Wizards of the Coast.[2] In 2006, Nintendo of America transferred distribution responsibilities to Pokémon USA.[3] In 2000, The Pokémon Company replaced Media Factory in publishing the cards in Japan starting with the Awakening Legends expansion. Media Factory continued to distribute the cards until the DP era.[citation needed]

Two Game Boy Color video games based on the card game were created: Pokémon Trading Card Game was released in 1998 and worldwide in 2000, and its sequel, Pokémon Trading Card Game 2: The Invasion of Team GR!, was released three years later. Pokémon Card Game: How to Play DS was released in Japan in 2011 and taught players how to play the Pokémon TCG. In 2011, the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online was introduced as a browser-based game but later became a downloadable game for PC, Mac, and iPad. Other media related to Pokémon TCG include several manga titles, such as the series How I Became a Pokémon Card.

How to play

Back of an English language card
See the Appendix:Glossary for a definition of most the Pokémon Trading Card Game terms.
Also see the FAQ Video Series on Pokémon.com for a visual introduction to the card game.

The Pokémon Trading Card Game is a two player game for all ages. Each player builds a Deck of sixty (60) cards using a combination of various "Pokémon cards" (the main type of cards used to battle), "Trainer cards" (cards with special effects), and "Energy cards" (cards that are required to perform most "Attacks"). New cards and decks are constantly being released, and players may purchase "Booster packs" to integrate these cards into their own decks or purchase pre-made "Trainer kits" or "Theme Decks" that already have all the cards needed to play. The Pokémon Trading Card Game officially requires a deck of 60 cards for Standard or Expanded play, though shorter Matches can be held with "Half Decks" consisting of 30 cards instead. During a 60 card match, only four of any one card, excluding Basic Energy cards, are allowed in each deck. This is further limited to two of any one card in a Half Deck match. Many fans have also created their own game rules and playing methods and have websites devoted to providing alternative playing methods. These rules and methods are not allowed in Play! Pokémon competitions.

Setting Up to Play

To begin a match, players need a coin or a six-sided die (where the even-numbered sides represent "heads" and the odd-numbered sides represent "tails"). One player calls heads or tails, while the other player flips the coin or rolls the die. If the player calling the coin flip gets their choice (heads or tails), that player gets to choose which player goes first. If the player calling the coin flip does not get their choice, the player flipping the coin gets to choose which player goes first. The player who goes first is not allowed to attack or play any Supporter cards on that player's first turn. In best-of-three match play, after a game has been completed, the loser of that game decides who goes first in the next game instead of determining it by a coin flip. This decision is made at the same point during setup that the coin flip would take place.

After determining which player goes first, both players must shuffle their own decks and allow their opponent to make a deck cut; alternatively, the opponent may choose to shuffle the other player's deck and allow the deck owner to make a deck cut. Each player then places their deck faces-down in the play area or "field" in a north/south orientation, with the short sides of cards facing each player, and any card sleeve openings facing the opponent. The players then each take seven cards from the top of their respective decks. These cards go into their hand. Players then place at least one Basic Pokémon from their hand face down into play: one to the Active Spot and up to five onto the Bench. Next, each player sets aside six cards from the top of their deck face down as Prize cards. Finally, each player flips over their Active and Benched Pokémon and the game starts.

Mulligan

If a player does not have any Basic Pokémon in their hand while setting up to play, after their opponent sets aside the Prize cards, they must take a mulligan. For each mulligan a player takes, that player’s opponent may draw a card.

If both players had to take mulligans, the player that took fewer mulligans may draw a number of cards up to the difference in the numbers of mulligans. This means if the player took 1 mulligan and the opponent took 3, the player may draw up to 2 cards.

Turns

At the start of each player's turn, they must draw a card. Then, they may take any of the following actions in any order they like.

Attacking will end a player's turn regardless of how many other actions they have taken, but a player may choose to end their turn without attacking.

Finishing a match

To finish a match, players must take their six Prize cards by Knocking Out their opponent's Pokémon by using attacks to reduce the opponent's HP to zero. The player that does so wins the game.

One player may also run out of Pokémon in play, i.e. they have no Active Pokémon or Benched Pokémon. The player that runs out of Pokémon in play loses the game.

At the beginning of a turn, if a player must draw a card from an empty deck, that player loses the game. Winning or losing can also be achieved directly with the effect of certain cards.

Rarity

On the bottom right corner of most cards, there is a small logo that indicates its rarity. Below is a list of these rarities:

  • Common (Common)
  • Uncommon (Uncommon)
  • Rare (Rare)
  • Ultra-Rare Rare (Ultra-Rare Rare)
  • Double Rare (Double Rare)
  • Ultra Rare (Ultra Rare)
  • Illustration Rare (Illustration Rare)
  • Special Illustration Rare (Special illustration Rare)
  • Hyper Rare (Hyper Rare)
  • Shiny Rare (Shiny Rare)
  • Shiny Ultra Rare (Shiny Ultra Rare)
  • ACE SPEC Rare (ACE SPEC Rare)

No symbol usually denotes a card that is part of a promotional set or a Basic Energy card. In addition, some cards are rarer than the symbol alone indicates, including due to it being a Holographic version, Secret Rare or alternate art print.
