>I want to learn the game, where do I begin?
Download PTCGL at https://tcg.pokemon.com/en-us/tcgl
The game has a quick tutorial and a bunch of decent decks to get you started against other beginners or against the AI. Some of those decks are very close to meta too. You can also go to your local game store and see if people are playing Pokรฉmon.

>I know how to play, how do I make my own deck?
You have a decent beginner's guide at https://www.justinbasil.com/guide
There's also the old /tcg/ guide at https://imgur.com/a/W4NkOu6
After that, look up meta decks and try to reverse engineer them to see how things work.

>Where to find meta decks?

carries ho-oh gamegame
if stage2s ever get support emboar will work with it too, but there's no irida and budew/item lock runs the format
they should just make a supporter that functions like rare candy (not tree which needs the stage1)

pokemon makes two sizes, the big one for most mats like from pokemon center and the shiny eevee collection. And a small one like in the charizard or arceus UPCs.
Small is ~22 1/4 x 11 1/2
Big is ~24 x 14

Does this work for Hydrapple or Ogerpon? They both boost damage for each energy attached to your/both active Pokรฉmon. So does this ability double that or do the attacks only count explicit attached energy because Meganium's ability says the energy 'provides' 2 grass?

Works for both. They say "each energy" and not "each card" which is usually used for discard effects like raging bolt ex.

pokemon know people are reatrded
I myself had to explain over about 10 matches to my new friends that play that when it only states the energy symbol (pre SV era) it's a basic energy no matter what the rest of the text says. It's great pokemon now specifies basic (symbol) energy but it causes these things

I thought the "(before you attack)" part was the issue and I was going to say that that being an issue is stupid since a misinterpretation puts only the user at a disadvantage, but reading it over I see the energy thing you're talking about and suddenly the ruling seems a lot more reasonable.

Hits for zekrom-ex numbers before giving up prizes, lacks the survivability of pikachu-ex, but is also another candidate for repeated wally usage.

>Devolve one of your psychic pokemon. (It cannot evolve this turn)
Another tool for garde if you think having no 2-prizers in play is better than your kirlia getting sniped.

I didn't see that reprint yet. Any other legality refreshes in that mega starter pack?

>When this pokemon evolves from hand, look at top 4 cards of deck. Attach any basic energy you find in any way you like, shuffle other cards into deck.
Might be okay with the devo item but probably not.

Bad because it isn't a colorless attack. Maybe it somehow sets up mega gardevoir's board.

Not bad for palafin-ex. 340hp, 250 damage, 2-prizer, and a minimal drawback.

Forest of giant plants reprint. Except it cannot be used turn 1 and no cross-type evolutions.
Now venusaur can use turo instead of wally.

Does this allow you to evolve twice in a turn? Or do you need to rare candy to play a stage 2?

Twice, you just can't do it turn 1. Turn 2 you can drop a bulbasaur on board and go ivysaur and venusaur the turn you played bulbasaur
To note evo skipping items like rare candy do not work with it. Bulbasaur would have needed to be in play a turn like normal. Since rare candy text clause overwrites the stadium

Boss/guzma are fine since the opponent picks which without your input. Escape rope/repel/bundle make YOU decide what to promote
Lost box was obnoxious as shit with the escape rope spam, you couldn't ever tab out vs them as the game would wait until you pick your new active every time they wanna switch comfey

When you say big setup do you mean throwing down lots of cards quickly or setting up over several turns?
>fast and big
Zekrom ex is pretty fun, a lot of sacrificial play and energy acceleration
Raging Bolt ex is made for doing big numbers, though it can struggle against single prize decks
Hydrapple ex can accelerate and draw cards really quickly and you hit for big numbers
>slow and big
Ethan's Typhlosion can set up quickly, but the general play is to slow down your opponent so you can set your board up and swing for 280 every turn
Rocket's Porygon Z is bad but it's very funny to hit for 360+ with a single prizer by the end of the game
There are plenty more and aside from Raging Bolt and Typhlosion I've given you rogue decks. The current meta is mostly chip damage and slow games and there isn't much call for unga right now, sadly.
I am also far from an expert so take everything I've said with a pinch of salt.

Oh mA is the set name
from the new trainer toolkit list. I guess JP doesn't use the normal set identifications for their toolkits
btw switch and energy switch there also is confirmed for I regulation too. when it otherwise wasn't

>>58041723
Probably, maybe level ball-like item returns, make it 80 HP or less so it can't fetch stage1s like drakloak. We should see a lot of core/amazing trainers being printed in these early sets in prep for next rotation

We need far more water support than this. Mega abomasnow is so awful. Those who missed it

>100x damage. Discard the top 6 cards of your deck. This attack does 100 damage for each Basic [W] Energy card you discarded in this way.
>200 damage. During your opponent's next turn, this Pokรฉmon takes 30 less damage from attacks (after applying Weakness and Resistance).

why can't they just print good cards, I wonder

The new filler text "During your next turn, this Pokรฉmon can't attack.". At 350 hp it might matter. but those energy costs immediately kill it ever standing a chance. Water has no synergy currently yet people complain about fighting type
>>58041900
Night academy or >>58040533 the only other is ciphermaniac which stacks 2. None of these work with each other, so you can't stack more than 1-2 guaranteed
