Setup
- Unboxing: Carefully open the product packaging. Verify that all components listed in the 'What's in the Box' section are present.
- Card Organization: Separate the cards into categories: Pokémon, Trainer, and Energy cards. Use the provided card sleeves to protect valuable cards.
- Deck Building: The Deck Build Box is designed to help construct a playable deck. Refer to the official Pokémon Card Game rules for deck construction guidelines (e.g., minimum card count, maximum copies of a single card). A typical deck consists of 60 cards.
- Energy Cards: Integrate the provided basic Energy cards into your deck according to the types of Pokémon you choose to play.
Operating (Gameplay Basics)
The Pokémon Card Game involves two players using 60-card decks to battle each other's Pokémon. The objective is to take all of your Prize cards, or for your opponent to run out of Pokémon or cards in their deck.
- Game Start: Both players shuffle their decks and draw 7 cards. Each player then places a Basic Pokémon face down as their Active Pokémon and up to 5 Basic Pokémon face down on their Bench. Six cards are then placed face down as Prize cards.
- Player's Turn: A turn consists of drawing a card, playing Basic Pokémon, evolving Pokémon, attaching Energy cards, playing Trainer cards, using Abilities, and attacking with your Active Pokémon.
- Attacking: To attack, your Active Pokémon must have the required Energy attached. Attacks deal damage to the opponent's Active Pokémon.
- Knocking Out Pokémon: When a Pokémon takes damage equal to or greater than its HP, it is Knocked Out. The player who Knocked Out the Pokémon takes a Prize card.
- Winning the Game: The game ends when a player takes all of their Prize cards, or if their opponent has no Pokémon left in play, or if their opponent cannot draw a card at the beginning of their turn.

- Card Storage: Store cards in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use card sleeves and the provided deck box or binders to prevent bending, scratching, or other damage.
- Handling: Handle cards by their edges to avoid transferring oils and dirt from your hands onto the card surfaces.
- Cleaning: If cards become dusty, gently wipe them with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive materials.
