Draft:TCGTrainerText/doc

All templates with the {{TCGTrainerText}} prefix are used in combination with one another to display Trainer card text.

How to use

There are normally four elements to each usage of the template:

  1. Header - the {{TCGTrainerText/Header}} template is used at the beginning of each instance.
  2. Effect - the {{TCGTrainerText/Effect}} template is, since the Black & White Series, usually used second.
  3. Rule - there are a variety of rule templates (see below). These are usually used third.
  4. Footer - the {{TCGTrainerText/Footer}} template is used at the end of each instance.

Please note: Development of this template group, and the various rules it requires, is a work in progress. See the Rule templates section below for details of supported series.
