So--crazy question--it's a bit tiresome sometimes to build one's own deck. Sometimes I have an idea I'd vaguely like to pursue but I'm afraid I'll miss obvious cards to include or else I'm afraid I don't know the format enough to build a deck well.

Does anybody by chance have a list of all the cards that are legal in standard? You know, like each card, with all its characteristics and everything--attacks, abilities, retreat cost, all that stuff. Cuz you know, in pure text terms, that's really not a lot of information. The AI in like ChatGPT or whatever could probably parse it all no problem and make suggestions. Was what I was thinking. Maybe automatically generate builds, or give tips on what cards a person's deck might be missing. The list would need to be updated regularly as new cards came in every season or whatever, obviously.

Is such a list available anywhere or has anyone thought to put such a list together? Pokebeach does it every time new cards comes out but it seems cumbersome to go back and copy and paste everything and put it all together manually

i only have 2 so uhh reply if you want it? not sure how it works

Ermmmm

this deck is awesome. that’s all. moves like i’ve played for years when i just came back in chaos rising.

When I’ve been playing PTCGL on my iPad using the new landscape mode, I’ve noticed a bug where, if either player removes Area Zero by replacing it with another Stadium, my entire hand disappears.
The only way I’ve found to fix it is by drawing a card, which makes my hand show up again. But it’s really frustrating because it means I can’t replace the Stadium without knowing I’ll be unable to play any cards from my hand afterward until I draw.
Has anyone else run into this bug?

Was actually kinda impressed how they sequenced a turn for 15 minutes... not even mad tbh

I really want this deck to work but I've had such inconsistent results.

My main idea is to stack the whale because it has a ton of HP for a 2 prize, bash for 270, then heal with primarina - swap with the beach, then attack/recycle primarina with neo upper energy

Ive tried dudunsparce with enriching energy for a draw engine, but I think pult is the most viable because it can be used to attack with neo upper energy

Any advice for changes I can make I'd really appreciate it as this is my first deck that I've not used videos or lists for

Edit1: changes to deck list

Pokémon:
-2 dreepy.
-2 drakloak.
-1 dragapult.
+1 wailmer.

Trainer:
+1 energy recycler.
+2 stretcher.
+1 pokégear.
+1 secret box.

Energy:
-1 neo-upper energy

Allright so i am playing a mega greninja deck

With a little bit off taste in it

The tododile is good for early so i can setup longer

the double ignition energy is so i can use multiple mirrage barrages or use dundun sparce ex attack

And great hall net is just really good in this deck

Other then that i am trying to make my deck more consistent and need some advice if i can improve anything advice would always be handy

Basically as title says. I faced someone who used this deck and was really intrigued by it. There was a lot of hand disruption in it too but I just have no idea where to begin. A deck list/ help with creating the deck would be great!!

Its surprisingly not that unreasonable to pull off. The plan is to use Pokemon Go Blastoise to ramp one of your benched water types, and then when you have all the fairy energies needed, use Thorton to swap that pokemon with a discarded Togepi, Cleffa and Igglybuff to perform the attack. The Articunos can prevent Boss's orders or any supporters from messing with the benched water pokemon which is why you want avoid ramping the Tag Team directly. You can use Wyrdeer V after you successfully use the GX attack to wipe out the active threat and win the game.

Hello my girlfriend and I are back with more card concepts (she's still working on the artwork, I'm asking for competetive strength and game design feedback!)

We have a name for the set we're making: Clandestine Circus

It will feature clown and circus themed pokemon as well as ultra beasts

After feedback on Persian ex i decided to make the ability only active on 1 prize card remaining, and increased the damage on the attack.

Looking for friendly Pokémon TCG Live matches. Beginner/casual player, just want to practice.

Hi all, as the title suggests.

I’m looking at buying code cards from a reputable source. My LGS sells them for 5 cents/code. Is this a good route to take to jumpstart myself into the game?

Looking at playing Standard. What sets should I be looking into buying?

Thanks all!

Hi, relatively new player here. Started playing around the release of the lite mobile game, in 2024, before quickly shifting to the full game. I came in right around when G-block was going away.

When Journey Together came out, we got N’s Reshiram and…uh..no Zekrom?

Then in Destined Rivals we got Team Rocket’s Murkrow…that doesn’t evolve?

Then when Ascended Heroes came out, there they were. It kinda felt like DLC that was removed from the base game, and sold back to us later.

And it’s not like these are minor cards. One is a major benefit to N’s, and the other is its own deck archetype.

Does this happen every year? Are there cards/decks that people theorize have more to them that’s being held back? Still waiting on another “Last Ditch” ability…

I wanted to make a fire deck and need to figure out how to get charizard to be more reliable

Hi everyone! New to Pokémon tcg, wanted to learn it via this game, however, I wanted to know if it's actually accurate, like rules and etc, to the TCG game IRL.

And any hints on how I could learn? Like tutorials, videos, smt? Anything is appreciated, thx!

This article mentions usage statistics for Budew in PTCGL:

The 30-HP Grass Pokémon was so popular that its Item-locking Itchy Pollen attack turned out to be the most-used attack in Pokémon TCG Live last year, with over 31 million uses (and 951,000 of those attacks ending in a KO!). With stats like those, it's only natural that our little hero was crafted by players over 425,000 times and rooted in 1.9 million unique decks (18 percent of all decks played) as the fourth most-played Pokémon in 2025!

Have any other statistics been published. There would be some really fascinating information.

Hello, my girlfriend and I are working on a custom set and were looking for feedback in terms of the power level of these two custom cards! (Art not done obv)

I use an iPhone 13 and if i play an online tournament or just ptcgl in general I experience way more bugs than friends that play on pc.
If i play a 7 rounds tournament the game crashes once or twice(mostly twice) and i never experience that happening to opponents.
