Black & White - Basic Red (TCG)

The BW Basic Red deck

BW Basic Red (Black & White - Basic Red) is a Theme Deck from the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online. It predominantly focuses on Fire-type Pokémon. It was one of the starter decks available to players between 2013 up to September 3rd, 2015 without the need for a code from a tangible TCG set for the Theme Deck play mode and could no longer be obtained by new players later, but was still available for those that received it.

The deck unlocked cards the first seven times a game was won with it in the Trainer Challenge, until all fourteen cards have been unlocked. All deck unlocks had specific cards which are added, and specific cards which were removed.
