Thought we may as well get some discussion going on the trading card game as we have talk on just about everything else. Anyways, i've always had a somewhat estranged relationship with the card game. I used to love collecting the cards when I was younger (Who didn't?! When Pokemon was a craze back in the late 90s, EVERY kid was buying them) and still to this day I love looking at all the artwork in the cards... ...However... I never really understood how to play.

Oh I know how to play, I had the Game boy game I am the only one of my friends who knows how to play pokemon the trading card game, andI will say this. The game is terribly unblanced in my opinion

Heh, I got the feeling from some of the insane moves the Pokemon can pull off. D: It's just... I bought one of the deck sets and it came with this fold out mat and when I saw that it totally threw my younger self's brain off. Plus idiots round my school used to just round around spamming Charizard's attack and then pinching your card. Oh and that was the other thing. Me and my friends were offered a shiny Mewtwo for something. And me being the idiot I was started going on about how powerful Mewtwo was in the games (He was right? How the hell was I supposed to know the TCG and games were so distant in likeness?!) and we lost our really rare card. D: Also; I never played the Pokemon TCG for the Gameboy. I feel like I missed out.

shit sucks about losing rare cards though, I had a Mew I am pretty sure I know who stole it to.

Yes please, i'd like that. It's satiate my curiosity too. I've heard a lot of good things about it. Heh, you'd whup me too! I'm only good at battling in the main games. A Mew huh? They used to be all the rage, especially the promotional ones handed out at movies. Come to think of it, the Pokemon card fad seemed to die out around the time the fossil decks were released. I know the Team Rocket ones were fairly popular.

dunno, no one I knew could play the game and by the time I got around to learning to play the game pokemon had died from mainstream around my friends. Here is the site with it pokebeach.com/tcg/redshark

I know that the Pokemon TCG tournament scene seems to be pretty active as there is usually quite large turn outs to the championships and so on. Everywhere else though does seem to be pretty dead. I know Tama gets a few cards now and again but I don't think she knows how to play normally. Usually just spams whatever attack. Pretty fun though if you have like a huge deck for each. Thanks for the link though, mate. ;D I've got it bookmarked and i'll give it a spin once my workload lessens significantly... Which won't be any time soon.

That program does not inforce the rules apperently. people can cheat or make mistakes so basically it wont be helping you howeverI think I can teach you to play and if you REALLY wanna know, I suggest playing the game boy game rom, it was fun back in the day
