Furthermore, it does not showcase a weakness to Fire-type cards and boasts of resistance against Steel-type ca
Power-creeping is a phenomenon that occurs in all TCGs at one point or another. As new sets of cards get released, more powerful ones will inevitably get introduced to add new and fresh elements into the game. To maintain balance, the power increase of cards is purposefully grad
Trevenant belongs to the XY expansion and is a stage 1 pokémon with 110 HP. Trevenant has two very useful abilities by the names of Forest Curse and Tree Slam.

That’s because Pokemon Sword & Shield _ (the video games, not the TCG expansion) changed the way fans experience the mainline games with its debut on the Nintendo Switch late last year. The title restricted the amount of Pokemon fans could catch and spurred on one of the biggest controversies in _Pokemon Tcg Card history with the National Dex debate, but when players went hands-on with the title at launch, the same magic that has made the franchise a juggernaut was still there.

The **Pokemon Sword & Shield _ ** TCG expansion set is the beginning of some significant changes to the way the game will be experienced by casual and competitive fans alike. The set will introduce a rule change to the way the first turn of the TCG is played, preventing the player who has won the first turn of the game to play a Supporter card on their first turn, attempting to mitigate the advantage players have when they can set the tempo of the game. It’s a dramatic change, but it feels like the perfect time to implement it with _Sword & Shield _ shaking up the _Pokemon world so dramatically that it’s likely going to be looked back retrospectively as the advent of a new generation of f
Having cracked open the theme decks and played them against each other, they’re startlingly similar to the way trainers can battle their Pokemon in the video games – and just like those, typing matters a bunch.
