Haven't collected in years.

I finished the Trainer Challenge and then put the game down because I had no cards and couldn't be bothered to memorize a million different Pokemon and their abilities. Also because Theme Mode is dominated by Hidden Moon and literally every game is a mirror match so fuck that.

Theme is boring regardless of who is playing what, but to each their own I suppose, I sure won't complain about more discussion in the general. It's really not that hard to get into though anon. I've been playing this game for about 3 months and I have 3 Leles, all traded for, and 2 mostly functional decks for standard post-rotation. Hell a friend of mine invested $20 into the game to start when BUS dropped and had everything for his deck but the Leles after 2 days. I'm currently in the process of trying to unload a bunch of reverse holo and rogue deck cards for bonus packs and I've made 10 over the last 2 days. Flipping packs isn't hard.
I mean sure, I pulled 3 untradable Alolan Ninetales GX which basically handed me a deck, but the card is pretty cheap anyways at 2 packs. You're never going to get anywhere unless you at least put forth a little effort.

The TCG has a lore, and it seemed like they were doing something with a mechanic city being attacked in Steam Siege, but nothing really came out of it (or even got mentionned).
>>
>>33255400
Mind doinng a rundown on the lore from xy and forward?
>>
>>33255415
The lore is explained in the sets description, which can be found on bulbapedia. I remember learning about it around the time BKT and BKP came out. Here is the BKT set description for example:
>Pokémon BREAK Evolution opens a new path to power that builds on a Pokémon’s existing strengths and creates all-new battling options! These new Pokémon BREAK come from twin worlds, home to Zoroark BREAK, Mega Mewtwo X, and Mega Mewtwo Y. One world of technology, one world of nature, and all the wonders of BREAK Evolution are yours to explore in the Pokémon TCG: XY—BREAKthrough expansion!
And he's the BKP one:
>A Rift Torn Between Worlds!
The hour grows desperate, and two worlds stand at the brink! The Pokémon TCG: XY—BREAKpoint expansion reveals the growing rift between the twin worlds, first discovered by Shiny Mega Gyarados-EX. As the rift tears through the skies, more Pokémon are drawn into the struggle, including Greninja BREAK, Luxray BREAK, and Mega Scizor-EX! Can they mend the rift and save both worlds from collision chaos?
This lore is depicted in the cards themselves, such as pic related. Chikorita lives in the world of nature and is looking at a Fennekin from the world of a technology through a rift. Plenty of other cards have references to the lore (but not all of them). You can look them up on pkmncards dot com.

As for every set's description, you can find them on their bulbapedia page and this link lists all the tcg expansions to date: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_Trading_Card_Game_expansions

The problem with card games in general is that you need grossly overpriced pieces of cardboard to be on the same competitive level as everyone else.

My prediction is that this kind of business model will not be able to survive the next generation of consumers.

Behold the best meme deck of TCGO. Nobody knows how to play against it either, so it often works too. Just completed the ladder with it for the final battle.
>>
What's a good budget deck right now? Garbodor/Espeon is getting boring. I don't have any Shaymin/Leles yet so preferably something that can work without them

>>33256244
>git gud at trading

What did he mean by this? How am I supposed to get a Lele if I only have like 5 BUS and 5 GRI packs?
>>
>>33256595
Check the OP, then check the old thread
once you're here ctrl+f "flip" and you'll find a conversation about flipping packs and how to do it.

That "skill" will help you to get any cards and build any decks you want. starting with BUS is also amazing because they're overvalued as fuck right now and you can make quick and great profits out of them.

There are literally some examples of what trades to do in the old thread too by the way. Follow them and you'll be able to hoard some packs in a reasonnable time. Then you get your Leles this way. You can probably get one for something between 14 and 17 BUS right now, which is laughably low compared to the value BUS will have in a few weeks.

Also keep this as a reminder: always make your own offers on the public market.
>>
>>33256714
How do you know which cards are good for "flipping"? I saw the Volcanion example on the last thread, is it because it's a kinda popular deck right now? Would buying 2 Espeon-GX for 3 BUS and then selling them for 2 each be a good idea, for example? Would people accept that trade?
>>
>>33256866
It depends on the metagame trends. Look up "Zoroark" in the old thread and "Octillery" to give you an idea.

Basically: if something works IRL, it's gonna be popular online, especially if it's something new. If something is expected to have a resurgence in the meta, it's gonna work too (example: current interest in Metagross to prepare for the onslaught of Gardy).

For the Espeon trade, look the market value. This link should help you https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1c1f_CdC_RIlzz_JMfFjBQmfZmgUXjkBlE86EzcJQOI0/edit#gid=1768215359 as well as the ou7ca5t guide (google ou7ca5t card value). Keep in mind they're guides, not gospell. The google spreadsheet is pretty accurate most of the time tho, and regulary updated.

I don't think he is talking about the cards in general he is talking about Garde matchups where you are punished for having energy on your attacker.

Aggressive marketing to normies.
>>
>>33259421
revenge koing for 1 energy and 1 band while only giving up 1 prize is huge. its far from auto win but considering the lack of card pool counters to gard its respectable. Heck druddigon revenge was notable for 1 shotting black kyurem with just 1 dce. of course bisharp still needs a choice band but its something any deck can tech in just like druddigon
>>
>>33259384
I don't know if they even need that level of online presence when the game is mainly offline but with an online bonus.

>>
>>33259473
it cant 1 shot. gard has -20 dark resistance. its short 10 damage with choice band

>>33259384
Hearthstone is popular for being Blizzard. Pokemon does not need and want this kind of fanbase for them.

>>33259154

I don't know wether it would survive, but I'd trade Pokémon for another tcg in which there are no booster packs and cards are all sold for a fixed price based only on their manufacturing cost, not their competitive value.

As long as its fun, of course. But given how Pokémon became a mess after BW, my current standards aren't really hard to satisfy.

>Ptcgo team are the real fags here
No truer words have been spoken. Their client is so clunky that it's obvious that it's been lazily put together. It bothers me to no end that the ability to filter and sort your trade searches is so bad that you can't even order newest trades first. They give you challenges that your opponents refuse to let you complete. It's a minor concern, but there's also zero confirmation on things like the end turn button and so if you bump it by accident while trying to click your discard you have just fucked yourself over. They really need to do some quality of life improvements on the damn thing but it's pretty obvious that it's only secondary to the physical game and they do not care.
>>33259384
What would it take? An infinitely better client and some incredible PR.

I have never stockpilled boosters before, so if I have 1 booster locked and 1 booster tradable what booster will be opened first?
>>
>>33262375
The locked will be opened first. A trick you can use is make a really shitty offer nobody would ever accept. Your 5 or so boosters for x5 Plasma Freeze Ultra Ball. Use up all your boosters in that trade. now they are are locked. Then open packs. you will not be able to open packs that are up in a trade, just the locked packs.
You could do a private trade which costs no tokens, just be careful not spam somebody as they could report you.You can make the trade impossible to complete as well; unreleased promo like the tapu lele promo as of now

There is actually a function for this in the case of connection disconnects. In tournaments if a player disconnects the game will continue on their end and give about a 30 seconds to make a play. If not the turn ends. The game well not end even if the player is not there, even if they never log in. This offline continuation mode can happen in vs mode too. They cannot reconnect but the game still goes on, just the disconnected player does nothing for the rest of the game. Why doesnt this feature work for concedes? They said its something about bots abusing it for rewards.

When have they ever been transparent? They make the rules and never discuss it with the players. But that feature was asked as soon as the daily exp challenges were introduced because conceding denied players damage/KOs/Evolution. You can look on the official forums and find their typical weasel responses. You could ask again see what they say.

I haven't been playing for a while, are people getting full sets of SR basic energies for their decks? Seems like the ultimate bling treatment, but how much would that cost?
>>
>>33262995
Typically 4-6 packs a piece, twice that currently for Dark and Fairy for being the newest ones, 40+ for DCE.
>>
>>33263009
Well, that seems doable, then.

I wonder if we will get a secret rainbow energy. And if they'll miss the opportunity of making it a rainbow rare (almost sure that will happen).
>>
>>33263029
I can see it happening. My prediction is Crimson Invasion will include SR Water, Rainbow, and DCE along with regular DCE reprint. Doubt anything's going to displace DCE as the top bling energy though.
>>
>>33263086
We know for a fact that Crimson Invasion includes 1 "new" special energy, we just don't know what

could be a DDE reprint, or hopefully, something like a Beast Energy, akin to React energy from ex Legend Maker
>>
>>33263178
Akin also to Plasma Energy. I like that mechanic but it's really stupid they recycle it with a different name.

But you are right, it would make sense to get a Beast Energy now. I just hope it's something else.

I'd like if it was some sort of anti-energy. Something like boosting damage and defence by 20 but increasing the cost of every attack by 1 instead of providing energy.

What're the good flip cards again?
I've been using Metagross-GX, Octillery, and sets of staple trainers, any others I should know about?

After all this talk about flipping cards cards and packs I was intrigued but I decided I'd give it a shot, being a bit of a noob this could've gone much worse.

>Decide to check trades up for Metagross-gx as a place to start

>Looks like a good deal to me mang
>Check what full art Kiawes are going for
>Oh look they're only asking for one Gardevoir here I pulled one the other day
>Seems almost too good to be true, can flip 1 gx into 2

Only after I check what the cards are worth in one of the links did I realise my grave error... I would've been so much saltier if the trade I left up overnight didn't get accepted, one Meta for a Garde which some kid musta stupidly accepted.
Overall up a Meta gx for just a few coins, not a bad start but that could've put me back quite a bit right from the get go... What else should I look out for?

You never look for trades. Especially as a newer player. You make your own trades. Set your own prices. Then you just wait. Now, you can check public to see your competition, what they sell their stuff at.

Dont get trapped by the GX for GX or EX for an EX offers. Not all cards are created equal. Good lesson for life in general. Let us take Metagross GX for example. Buy for 1-2 packs, sell for 3-4 packs. very easy you make 1 -2 pack profit and the demand for metagross is consistent. You may want to sell that gard as of right now, then pick it up as the price goes down in a 2 weeks or so. No point in having 1 Gard anyways. Most important check prices through the link up at the top. Market changes considerably. Lets say metagross makes it to the finals in worlds? Its price will double maybe triple for a few weeks. Follow events, youtubers see what the latest flavor of the month deck is and sell from there

Diferent mechanics

Magic have cards you can use during your opponent turn to react
You can get surprise wins from almost nothing in the field ( at least on older formats)
Drawing is important

I don't know pokemon as much since I only played theme online and proxy deck with a friend but I'll try

The gameplay is simpler, yet you get to do a lot of things in your turn
Prizes give a bit of variance in the deck
It get coinflip when magic don't have good cards with thoses

You can play magic on cockatrice for free

Anon's advice to new players:
>Theme
Everyone has a shitty, inconsistent deck. Most games are decided by luck of the draw rather than actual skill level. Some decks are better than others, but for the most part everyone is on the same level. Don't worry about it, just play and have fun.
>Standard/Extended/Etc
The people you are playing against are here to play the game, same as you. Don't worry about losing, everyone loses sometimes. Even if your deck is a shitty pile of cards, playing against real people is a better way to get a feel for how the game is supposed to be played because you can watch their moves, see how their combos work, and learn how to enact/counter those combos yourself. Even if your deck isn't a shitty pile of cards, you'll still lose on occasion because certain decks will just flat out counter you or you'll draw dead hands. Everyone loses. It's learning from your losses that is the important bit.
>tl;dr
Don't worry, be happy.

Why aren't there any good PTCGO streamers? There's YellowSwellow, but he's mediocre at best.

The game is appealing enough to look at, so it deserves a larger audience.
>>
>>33269258
Three is optimal, but you can do just fine with two. You have a small drop in consistency, but considering Metagross's main setup is through Vulpix anyway you don't suffer too much.

>>33269501

already bought the lunala theme deck

wnat next? should I just buy all of the other theme decks or just boosters?
>>
>>33270275
Spend them all on posting trades.
Or buy a bunch of those Pikachu avatar packs.
>>
>>33269501
Azul, Omnipoke, and Slutsky are the only ones who play competitively, I think.
>>
>>33270336
Tablemon too.
>>
>>33270289
why the pikachu avatar packs?
>>
>>33270362
Because apparently you can trade them for tradable packs, although I've put up a few trades for as many as ten for a single pack and not had any go through.
>>
>>33270362
You can trade them 5:1 for real packs.
>>33270385
Try harder.
>>
>>33270275
>>33270362
Because they can get you plenty of staples like Sycamore,N,Skyla, Choice Band etc all for the price of some tokens. You can pick up vulpix, beldum, metang sometimes even rares like passimian, garb, mew.They are currency for small items. You wont be able to pick up meta GX like volcanion, meta, gards with pikachu packs however. You could possibly pick up garbage exs, gxs like wishiwashi, toxapex,kommo with pikachu packs. Then you can trade those for good packs or even cards.

>>33270385
It depends on the time of day too. I noticed my trades go through during the day, but the trades I leave for overnight have very low acceptance rate.
>>
>>33270422
I already have 4 Sycamores and 6x N

was thinking of buying the lycanroc deck for acerola then some packs

trading seems inconsistent
>>
>>33270548
you can get about 10 trainers including acerola/guzma with 1 pikachu pack. ask for 2 acerola, 2 guzma, 2 something else etc. theme decks are a waste purely for getting staples. Trading is not inconsistent. Your tokens are incredibly important, but it is how you use them that matters. By the way all the theme decks are incredibly bad for standard format. Any staples you want can be gotten with pikachu packs. But you dont have to take my advice. it takes a bit longer of course but trading pays off.
>>
>>33270572
why the fuck do people trade for pikachu packs

they are literally just ugly cosmetics aren't they?
>>
>>33270835
It just works.
>>
>>33270835
I sincerely doubt there is an answer, reminds me of the chicken or egg paradox. Like >>33270856 said it simply works. My guesses would be; Kids think they are a real pack and some useless bulk for a pack is a great deal, people open the packs and then resell the costume set OR they are people who are trying to build their own collection and they know how to flip a pikachu pack. Turning 55 tokens > Pikachu Packs > Chest > random rare/gx/ex > Guardians rising is a way to min-max your token usage but I find it tedious personally. Basically you find a system that works for you. Again why it works I have no clue, but it sure beats spending 500 tokens for 1-2 trainers when you can get more for just 55 tokens (plus the 8 token cost for trading of course)

>>33271830
Thats exactly what I meant mate. There is no supply basically, so they can juice up the price to whatever bullshit number they want. So yes there are tradeable versions. Chances most of the players could never afford them anyways
>>
>>33271815
Not if they were bought with Gems, which is the whole point. Gem purchases are only available in Canada, and as far as I'm aware it's the same as the regular store except they give you the option of buying with Gems instead of with Coins, which makes whatever you buy tradeable. Gems are expensive for what you get, so not many people bother buying things unless they're immediately worthwhile, like otherwise unavailable promo cards. There's a few things, like the Ancient Powers set, that were only available briefly, and because it didn't contain anything really notable, not many people bothered buying it. Then it ended up not being available any other way, and obtained value through sheer scarcity. Now collectors will pay obscene amounts for them.

Are you trying to buy codes from ptcgo.com? I'd definitely recommend buying actual code cards for cheaper and having them mailed to you. They mark their stuff up but if you really don't want to wait they also just give the codes to you on their website so it's the price you pay for convenience.

The only think worse than people playing N is people defending it over how it allows "smart strategies". It is old, tiresome and annoying as hell.

Victini becomes less useful as the number of flips increase.

With just one flip, you go from 50% heads to 75% and have zero chance of getting a result that is worse than the first (unless you are really dumb, that is).

With 5 coins, the chances of getting all heads are 3.125%, normally.

With a Victini, you can get these same chances over the other 96.875%, which increases it to about 6.15%.

Almost the double, but that is assuming you will always take the risk (even when you get 4 heads).

In reality, you will probably use Victini whenever you get tails more than 2 times. In that case, Victini increases the odds of getting 5 to about 4.2% only. But, during this second try, you also have 18.75% chances of getting less heads than before.

The safest play would be to use it only when you get 5 tails, but that also happens only 3.125% of the time.

TL;DR: It's not as good as it seems.

>It's the regular reverse, not the full art
Kill me
>>
>>33278686
Are there any pros for it's half dark typing? Because the card itself seems to have been designed as bad as it is because it has this advantage of being dual type.

And then, the only time it could be useful (with a tool, nonetheless) it gets cucked by resistance.
>>
>>33258822
I really hate how there is ALWAYS a strong card that punishes players for investing energies on a Pokémon.

Attaching 3+ energies to a single pokémon is already a risk by itself. If it get's knocked out, they are all gone. It's already a risky move, it doesn't need to be punished.

If anything, Gardevoir should hit for 40x the difference between it's energies and the defending pokémon.

I agree, rn i run a Gard deck and i had alot more fun when i played my M-Heracross and M-Venasuar deck all the way up until night march, i wish the meta was just "left down/revolved around" to weaknesses instead of overpowered decks, just good typing builds. now its "the new meme deck" but if its any comfort i get slaughtered by Metagross builds, i think volcanion builds are gunna take worlds easy
>>
>>33278930
And how does that help, exactly? It will take a minimum of 150 from Gardevoir GX, 240 it has 3 energy and a choice band.

When you finally set up, it will be already sweeping your entire board.

Hi total newfag here, I started playing before 3 weeks and looked for a decent budget deck, netdecked this Lapras deck and it's working pretty good. I want to improve it now that I have more cards, can you recommend me what to change?

I have 3 Sun and Moon packs left to trade, and plenty of Cards from card openings that I can't trade.
>>
>>33279685
The best advice I have for you is to run another deck, the point of this Lapras deck is to fatigue players out of resources.

The most you could change is to take out one Lysander and an Olympia for two Guzma. Other than that the deck list is made to run as it is as a fatigue machine. The deck itself isn't that strong nowadays since fatigue doesn't work since so many decks like Gard can ramp themselves in one turn so your fatigue idea doesn't work.

It worked in the meta where darkrai was good but nowadays it's not in a good spot.

Anons, do you know any fun obscure rulings? I want to learn more useless stuff about this game.

I'd love to see Unlimited 150 get some kind of support like Commander did in MTG, could make for fun like that.

TCG newfag here. I have a technical question my Google Fu can't answer.

I have an Aerodactyl. It says you can only put it on your bench with the effect of Old Amber Aerodactyl (an Item). That Item says to search through the bottom seven cards of the deck, and take the Aerodactyl if it is there.

My question is, what happens if you get Aerodactyl in your hand through some other means? What if you draw or are dealt it at the beginning of the game? Does that mean you can never play it unless you find some way to get it back in the deck, and then get it with Old Amber Aerodactyl?
>>
>>33279930
Wouldn't the Break have to say "evolves from raichu lvx" for that to work?
>>
>>33283153
if you have an aerodactyl in hand you can't play it, you need to shuffle it back into the deck.

Does someone have a bot that just redeems codes for different games that also reads images
>>
>>33284022
If they do, it might be easier just to email them to people that ask for it.
That way, you won't run into issues where someone just takes all the cards through illicit means.
That's just me though.
>>
>>33284032
I agree with the email idea. I just don't like having to make a temporary email constantly as a precaution
>>
>>33284038
I know what you mean, but that is the catch-22 of it.
One is an inconvenience, the other is just annoying as fuck because you're not sure if you'll be able to get any of the packs thrown out due to bots.
It just sucks all around...

Hell no. Back when I was starting ~500 coins got me a set of every staple, and 5-10 will get you any pack.
>>
>>33285074
i personally dont like the pikachu cosmetics, its just sets of clothes.
buying packs/decks/sleeves is much more worth it even if you get crap.
or if you have the time, entering point tournaments then using the tickets to enter actual tournaments. though rn you want to be really confident you can win in expanded because thats the only point tournament. and there is some heavy meme decking going on im sure

You've wasted so fucking many coins.

Bant is better, yes?
>>
>>33285074
If all you need is Lele sure go ahead and pray for a locked lele. I dont know what your luck is like but locked packs have terrible pull ratios. The safest way is to get pikachu avatar packs 55 tokens each then flip into guardians rising. Takes a long time but thats how you free to play. Theme tournaments that use tokens for cost is another great way but again you have variance heavily against you as theme deck is who draws better.Nothing you can do about drawing7 energy in your starting hand. Theme deck tournaments is how I built my collection but you need tournament tickets for the pack prizes. Not everyone has the patience to flip for packs
>>
>>33283544
No, because the "lv.X" part doesn't count as part of the name. This is the same reason why you can't have 4 regular Raichu and 4 Raichu lv. X in the same deck, they count as the same Pokémon.
>>
>>33280198
It's better to have some support than none at all. They could just ban problematic cards in terms of rulings (Fossil Ditto comes to mind) and make generic erratas for each block, to make them better compatible with the current format.

It's doable, it's just that TPCi has no reason to do it, since they already have an Unlimited of sorts in Expanded.
>>
Are there any good forums to trade cards online?
>>
>>33285675
To further clarify, Pokémon from the DP-era had levels printed on them next to their name, which weren't considered part of the name. Pokémon Level X expanded on that.

Alright faggots. Im looking for a sub 5 minute deck to grind the vs rewards. 10 minute average game is 110 minutes nearly 2 hours just for 5 mystery boxes. I only care about tokens and can build any deck in any format so whats the fastest way to win?

When they were the most recent decks they were decent, but as is usually the case with the theme decks power creep kinda rendered them obsolete.
