Strategies involving different cards can be found among all types, though there are some especially cool ones seen in the more recent expansions. In the Vivid Voltage set, there is a Cramorant card that can do 60 damage multiplied by how many Arrokuda cards are discarded from the bench. Since Cramorant is a basic pokemon, it can be played immediately, making it a great lead pokemon due to its sufficient 110 HP. Their Continuous Gulp Missile costs 2 energy of any type, making it very quick to set up. With one of the common Double Colorless Energy cards, this move can potentially be used on the first turn that Cramorant is act

Here's another card with good versatility. Crobat from the Skyridge set has a hazardous attack called Poison Flame, which can put the opposing Active Pokemon in a tight spot as it can leave them Burned and Poisoned following a single coin f

Water types have "Plus" energy attacks, moves with a plus sign to the right of the damage number. These kinds of moves get a flat bonus to their damage output for water energy, and they mostly only exist on water type cards. The Wailord card from the Vivid Voltage expansion is a great example of this. Even though it takes a total of 4 energy to unleash their Hydro Pump attack, it will always deal massive damage when launched. The base 10 damage plus the optimal attachment of 4 water energy results in a 170 damage assault that has no negative downside for the u

Thunder Lance, on the other hand, deals a base damage of 50, and, for every electric energy that has been attached to Raikou, it deals a further 20 damage, all for the cost of 3-colorless energy cards. Used in synergy with Max Elixir, Raikou becomes simply unstoppa

Each type in the Pokemon TCG represents one or more types from the video game franchise. Water in the card game comprises all pure Water-types, many dual-types, as well as the same for Ice-types. This gives the whole group a variety of strategies to draw from that can be mixed due to elemental synergy. Needing the same type of energy card for two or three different tactics can really overload one's opponent and leave them stretched for resources as well as keep them on the defens

In 2003, Nintendo released an e-reader device that could attach to the Game Boy Advance to allow players to scan special cards to enhance gameplay and add cool features to certain games. Crystal Pokemon were a type of card created specifically for this peripheral, though they could also function as cards in physical decks. Since the Pokemon TCG 's e-card series ended over a decade ago, Crystal Pokemon have become some of the rarest cards on the planet, though not all are equal. Some of these Crystal Pokemon are better to have in a battle than others due to their mightier mo

Using this ability, the player can attach as many electric energy as they want from their other pokémon tcg pocket 24 hourglasses distribution to Tapu Koko GX and switch this card to their active slot, all inside the same turn. It's impressive 170 HP and no resistances and weaknesses are additional benef

Though fans won't be able to find booster packs until February 19th, the Shining Fates set has already been released in the form of the Blastoise and Venusaur V "Battle Decks." Starter/theme decks are often available from the very first day a new expansion releases, as they allow players to quickly enter battle with a pre-crafted deck consisting of mostly, if not all, cards from the new expans

As fans of the TCG are likely well aware , there is strong favoritism shown toward Charizard cards in many different expansions. The Skyridge set is no exception, as it was released with another mighty flame Pokemon to add to the ranks of Charizard cards across the franch

Uxie is a Basic pokemon with 70 HP that belongs to the Legends Awakened expansion and has the useful Poké-power of Set-Up. Set-Up is a brilliant move that allows players to refresh their hands and increase their chances of getting the cards that they need. The move functions when Uxie is shifted to the bench, allowing the player to draw cards such that they have seven cards in their h

One aspect of this card that fans might find interesting is that its Crystal Types are Fire, Water, and Electric; the types of the Legendary Beasts Entei, Suicune, and Raikou which Ho-oh is often associated w

Draining Cut can be handy if one is lacking HP and wants to do a bit of damage at the same time. However, Triple Cutter is the main reason to use this card. With the potential to deal 90 damage, it is one of the better Crystal Pokemon atta

In addition, like its previous evolutionary form, Light Dragonite has a wave-related attack that prevents certain aspects of enemy moves. In this case, Light Wave prevents all effects done with the exception of damage, meaning that it will be impossible for the enemy to set a special condition, or any other adverse effects, upon Light Dragonite. Being Colorless-type also means that this card can potentially fit into almost any kind of deck for supreme useability and versatil
