Spinoffs Pokémon Trading Card Game (GBC)

yeah I loved it, beat the first and 2nd one even though it was japanese only, collected all the cards etc.

crazy how i hate playing the trading card game IRL, but as a video game im completely fine with it.

 

I can't really remember what pack I chose, but the little time I did have this game I played it a lot.

 

I think this game is probably the only time I actually enjoyed playing the Pokémon TCG. I borrowed it from a friend but I finished it before I had to give it back...I have it on my 3DS actually, since it's on the Virtual Console now. I've been meaning to play it at some point, because honestly I can't remember any of it. xD;

I DO remember being extremely miffed that the sequel wasn't released outside of Japan, though...

 

I never knew it was an actual game!!! I thought this was going to be about the physical card game

 

I wouldn't be surprised if I tried all the starting decks with all the times I've restarted the game. I remember using the Bulbasaur deck a lot- Venusaur's ability was great- adjusting damage around to lessen knock out chances..
I don't remember full decks I used, but I do remember I was fond of fast/heavy hitters like Electrabuzz/Hitmonchan/Magmar and Alakazam/Venusaur/Raichu..
I never beat the game, but once made it to the 4 Masters and the Rival.. Man it got super hard..
