[@smcarmel]

I’m new to playing, want to get into playing standard! Where is the best place to start, information, decks, etc?! Thanks! 🙏

[@LorcanaLingo-lv4fx]

Hey there im new to Pokemon but I’ve played other tag’s before. I’ve always been a control player. What would be the best control deck?

[@TheShuffleSquadTCG]

Snorlax or Pidgeot atm

[@ChonkyToad]

To make the game fun for both players, something like Gengar Or Espathra ex. If you want to annoy your opponents, Snorlax.

[@susuki8875]

I’ve been playing hands for months now and have been wanting to try something new, any recommendations??

[@TheShuffleSquadTCG]

Guys I am new to the format of tcg really new. I just got in it after getting bored of yugioh and starting to play pokemon tcg. I kinda understand some things and some not but I do know I want to play mainly 3 decks that being mew , gengar , and dragapault, but since idk which one to get or to start with because whatever I will start with will most likely be my main out of the three I want to have a good strong competitive deck that will still stay strong even out of meta. That also being said I would need help on which stuff I would need to but and what to watch out for All is appreciated and thank you
