Always good to see bigger creators put out pro-proxy content. Too many new players think using proxies is somehow morally reprehensible, when it’s really the cleanest way to test cards IRL before you buy.
For my proxies, I like gluing them to one side of a used code card. I’ve got TONS of them from over the years and it really is just nice to give them another use instead of just tossing them out. Plus it shows you if the proxy needs to be trimmed a bit to match the card size, and it’s MUCH easier to slide into the sleeve when glued.
Amazing guide. I was wondering how to make proxy/custom Pokémon cards, and even bought some supplies in order to make custom holo ones. Appreciate the help Azul!
For all EU (and non american) people. The powerpoint file is using the US letter format. If you're printing A4, be sure to scale the page size appropriately otherwise your prints might come out to large.
My school library has a paper cutter next to the printer, it's perfect for this. You can cut out an entire proxy deck in a couple minutes. If you're careful, the cuts are cleaner than scissors, too. If you have access to a paper cutter or just wanna buy one, please try it out for proxy cutting.
I print on 8.5x11" shipping labels. Then I use a paper cutter to cut them out. Then I can just stick the proxy to an energy card and it's more permanent.

Great for new players who wanna sample new stuff and play at locals that allow proxies. Good stuff. Thank you for this!
sometimes i play pokemon with my sister and i think I'll start printing some cards for my decks this way, thanks for the tutorial!

Nah EU is banned from making proxies

I did this so much at UCSD, people at the pokemon club were always amazed at how nice my proxies were they thought they were real LMAO

Hahaha that's such a good idea! That would feel nicer than having a loose piece of paper in the sleeve with the card.
Plan on doing this to play Pokemon TCG Pocket offline in IRL. Thanks for the video!
A reminder that a printer is not included in this video.
Now I can cook with Archaludon!
Best way to play with up coming sets is to proxy! Thanks for supporting it.😊
FINALLY I've been looking for this.
Shoutout to Proxycroak!
What if you wanted to print proxy of older cards? My son wants to make proxy decks of tcg classic. But I don't have $400....
You can go to pkmncards.com and take images from there and drag them into the power point template
Thank you
in limitless there is an option to print whole deck lists, but i dont know if any other adjustments need to be done?
did you use fit to paper?
Proxy on limitless seems smaller after printing. Anyone knows how to fix this?
