Having a charizard with the 'burn brightly' ability on the bench has been SOOO OP for me. It makes every fire energy be worth two, essentially halving energy costs
Why doesn't this video have more views? I'm getting into Pokemon TCG and was initially intimidated on how I planned to build my first deck. But this video helped ease my nerves and made me understand a lot about the current meta, playstyles, and what to look out for in a deck! Thank you for the video, you earned a new subscriber. God Bless you!
Just cashed in the 700(ish) code cards ive been hoarding over the last 12 years on the online tcg. I used the credits from duplicate cards to buy everything I need to build a Chien Pao deck. Been having a lot of fun with it and just cracked ultra league. Thanks for the advice 🤙
I'm newer to tcg and I've built 5 decks so far. I feel like I'm far enough along that what I've built is ok for just me and one of my friends. We're not diehard to the point of playing competitively. We're just having fun. I tend to lean towards a lot of healing through tool and item trainers and choosing Pokemon that can deal out damage to my opponents bench. So keeping my HP up, while destroying all of my opponents HP. It's worked ok so far. Nemona and Nemonas backpack have proven to be pretty useful to me for just drawing from the deck and recycling from my discard pile, and of course I have some trainers in there to search energy and pokemon.
Very nice! I like healing too. Goodra VSTAR was a favorite deck of mine for a while. Now Torterra ex and Eldegoss with the "Wafting Heal" ability from Temporal Forces. Then Twilight Masquerade gave us the Bug Catching Set which helps grass type decks. In any case, I'm glad you're havin' a good time!
Getting interaction on this channel has been hard :( But it also happened with a tutorial I helped another channel with. People really seem to gravitate towards educational content but very few interact with it. Hoping that changes over time. Always trying to keep up with new comments, though, to answer any questions.
First deck???? I'm a lifelong mtg player. My wife and I are trying pokemon. We typically build decks from packs or common lots only. All the vstar and ex cards would need to be bought as singles I'd think. Even the less powerful ones require multiples of the basics and stage 1 and 2 to be effective. Just seems harder to build a deck without buying a pre-made one or singles.
There are definitely a few pre-made ones that will help you get on your feet. The great thing about Pokemon, though, is that the singles are typically very cheap. If you haven’t seen it, I’d recommend the staples video I put up cuz those will be useful across all decks. Then just pick and choose more specific ones based on the decks you want. Feel free to ask any questions, though! Otherwise, good luck with your Pokemon journey. :)
Same, I’ve been playing Magic for a few years but my nephew has been collecting Pokemon for equally as long and wanted to learn to play, so I recently learned and took him to pick out a starter deck and we used his collection to upgrade it. If you’re starting out I would suggest buying two of the same, or just two starter decks and combine them and add singles from there. Good thing about Pokemon over Magic is that most people collect and not play, so you can find a lot of useful cards pretty cheap
I have more then 7000 POKEMON BASIC ENERGY CARDS 2023 SVEen 001 to 008. I'm trying to figure out what they are worth and how to sell them. These came from a comic book store, I assume they opened packs of cards to find the more valuable card and sold theses separately. I do not want to small lots but I may if can make money selling small lots. I listed them in an ebay auction starting bid $200 for the whole lot of 7000 and it did not even one view.
Ive been a collector since 6 years old. Never learned how to play until 20 years later. Why have i not learned sooner? This looks so fun
It really is! I hope you enjoy it!

Should say as a fellow builder from other card games, YOU DO AN AWESOME JOB explaining everything. Great work.
Thanks! I appreciate the encouragement. Looking to do more in the future!
