Pokémon TCG – Pokémon Trading Card Game

Back in the 1990s, Pokémon became an overnight hit when the manga and anime series were first introduced in Japan, and then to a worldwide audience. Since then, Pokémon has transformed from being a mere name of cute, magical creatures to a blockbuster franchise spanning the globe. It has expanded to include video games, animated and live-action movies, toys, and a range of other merchandise – not to mention Pokemon Trading Cards.

PTCG or Pokémon TCG otherwise known as the Pokémon Trading Card Game (Pokemon Kado Gemu in Japanese) is a game that utilises collectable cards, based on the Pokémon universe. Pokémon trading cards can be played solitarily, by two's, or in multiple teams. The goal is to knock your opponent out by besting them using strategy and superior cards.

Types of Pokemon Cards

There are basically 3 types of Pokémon cards, namely:

• Character cards – these cards contain the details of the Pokémon creatures, their traits, and inherent powers. The creatures are classified into categories: fire, water, metal, psychic, and dragon. The cards also indicate whether the Pokémon is in its stage 1 or stage 2 form.

• Energy cards – these are the cards that power up the Pokémon. Special energy cards are also available for unique kinds of boosting power for certain Pokémon.

• Trainer cards – these are the support cards you can use during battles. Some of these cards have special rules, which are seen at the bottom.

Aside from these 3, there are also special types of Pokémon cards, the EX and GX cards. They have stronger illustrations of characters that can either be luminous or holographic. Booster cards and expansion packs are also released every now and then. And you know what's great with all of these Pokémon trading cards? They're all available here at Mr Toys!

Expansions and Boosters

Pokémon expansion packs are sets of cards that are released only for a specific series of cards, also known as "Generation." Each new expansion pack has 100 to 200 cards.

Booster packs are sets of 10 cards that you can add to your Pokemon trading card collection. Boosters allow the deck owner to acquire the cards from other players during a game, strengthen their current decks, or add new cards to create the perfect deck.

What's So Great about PTCG?

Children can start playing the Pokémon trading card game as soon as they learn how to read. They will enjoy seeing detailed illustrations and descriptions of their favourite Pokémon with their magical powers and inherent traits. As kids get older, they will be more interested in competing and trading with other PTCG players. No need to roll the dice! They will begin to collect more cards as it becomes a wholesome hobby that allows them to belong to a community. The game itself teaches them to think tactically and strategically.
