Pokémon TCG - Deck Building
This video is for players who are new to the Pokémon TCG, taking you through the process of building a playable deck of cards. I talk about the basic requirements of building a brand-new deck, and also mention the concept of various formats that are followed at all Play! Pokémon Premier Events. This video focuses on starting with a theme deck - Ocean's Core - and modifying it by removing unwanted cards and adding in other cards obtained from booster packs.
Full, comprehensive rules and guidelines on tournament formats can be found at this link, under "Play! Pokémon TCG Rules and Formats":
