Are You Playing the Pokémon Trading Card Game?

A rarely mentioned topic on our site is the TCG-side of Pokémon, but I think it’s more than worth talking about occasionally. Pokémon recently announced details about the English release of the X&Y TCG expansion which will be coming on February 5, 2014. Fairy-type has been added to the cards, as well as a new Mega Pokémon mechanic.

Personally, I’ve always been more of a “collector” type when it comes to the Pokémon TCG. My three sisters never had any interest in battling when I was younger so even if I had made a competitive deck there wouldn’t have been any way for me to test it out. Luckily, children growing up in this online era have the Pokémon TCG Online game in case they have no interested siblings or nearby events. I don’t have much time for it, but I do really enjoy the TCGO game so if you haven’t checked it out I recommend that you do!

Looking forward to reading the comments about what you’re doing TCG-wise right now 🙂

ps- After I wake up (almost 11PM in Tokyo right now… I’m sick and tired) I plan to post an article about… POKEMON Z. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!

  1. For the fan game I think the E4 should be: (in a tower in a specific order)
    Hector – Flying
    Shelby – Water
    Crimson – Fire
    Ivy – Grass

      and we need a dark type gym to end the madness
      I felt like the leader of a Police force should be the Dark type gym leader since he was once a criminal who used pokemon to aid his crimes but rose throught the ranks to stop crimes with the aid of Pokemon!

    • Hector is a pilot
      Shebly is a mermaid thing
      Crimson is a middle age man with a “I’ve been scarred for life” personality
      Ivy is a young girl who is a girl-scout thing

  2. If we’re gonna get community members in the game’s plot as a gym leader, E4, Champion, or whatever, we should probably just ask who’d be want to and then that person can pitch their idea for the certain character they want to put in with all the info that should be included for that certain character and whoever the people who’re developing this game like the most will be put in

  3. Um, guys. I’m scared. *Gulp*. My 3ds just made a loud beep noise for about 30 seconds and then turned off. I get back on and there are horizontal lines all over my screen in the background of everything. *Gulp* Guys, I’m really scared. Help.
