Learn How to Play the Pokemon Trading Card Game: Starting a Battle

[Ts1fangjoker]

I love your videos

[thanhtinnathan]

Nice vids u should do a battle

[PrimetimePokemon]

@thanhtinnathan Thanks, and I definitely want to.

[superdrunkcow]

thank you for this viedo it really helped

[PrimetimePokemon]

@superdrunkcow You're welcome.

[SpongebobFan1127]

You better make one soon

[NFlorianWirthG]

mhh it's been almost a year and still no battle video meeep

[PrimeTimePokefan2000]

primetime what ur address

[PrimetimePokemon]

@PrimeTimePokefan2000 Just send me a message and I'll tell you.

[AlexBugsyBoi]

with a battle video u could have 1 person holding the camera above the game so we see every card played and you can your opponent play normally

[PrimetimePokemon]

@AlexBugsyBoi Thanks for the idea.

[AlexBugsyBoi]

@PrimetimePokemon no problem

[TheNinjaassassin22]

Can you play with fake cards

[000admoz000]

@TheNinjaassassin22 Not suggested. You are not allowed to play in tournaments with fake cars but in my opinion fake cards are bad to play with. I used to trade pokemon cards and a few months ago I ripped all my fake pokemon to pieces

[ESP4thaWin]

Do you draw even if you're going first?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@ESP4thaWin Yes, you draw every turn.

[ESP4thaWin]

@PrimetimePokemon

Well, that is rather stupid. You might as well just say that you draw 8 cards to begin with, and not draw a card your first turn.

[XCaptainLouieX]

What of the base set theme decks do like best? (Blackout,Brushfire,Overgrowth or Zap!)

[PrimetimePokemon]

@XCaptainLouieX Overgrowth since it was my first deck ever.

[XCaptainLouieX]

@PrimetimePokemon Cool! that was also my first deck.

[xxxlardmanxxx]

@PrimetimePokemon

hey, how many trainer cards can you use each turn?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@xxxlardmanxxx as many as you'd like

[CarrotZ53]

When do ya take a prize card

[PrimetimePokemon]

@CarrotZ53 from the six prize cards you lay out at the beginning of the game

[Kad2124]

hey primetimepokemon what if i have 7 cards in my hand and i knocked out my opponents pokemon do i get the prize cards still or i leave it since my hand is full

[PrimetimePokemon]

@Kad2124 you still get the prize cards

[Kad2124]

@PrimetimePokemon thank you it really helps

[PrimetimePokemon]

@Kad2124 you're very welcome

[Phoenix123456lol]

@primetimepokemon

Can you do a battle with somebody sometime?

I wanna see your deck.

[PrimetimePokemon]

@Phoenix123456lol I want to, and made three decks and recorded them on YouTube before

[Kad2124]

hey primetime pokemon can i evolved a active pokemon to my bench or i can only evolved a active pokemon by my hand please reply

[PrimetimePokemon]

@Kad2124 you have to move a card from your hand to your bench or active Pokemon spot

[descalera99]

what does the defending pokemon do and how do you win your opponent by getting prize card because i couldnt understand that part

[PrimetimePokemon]

@descalera99 could you be more specific?

[descalera99]

@PrimetimePokemon well i dont know what u meant by the defending pokemon i thought there was only active and the bench ones and what do u do with the prize cards do u have to knock out six opponents to get one or something

[PrimetimePokemon]

@descalera99 defending Pokemon = your opponent's active Pokemon and when you knock out one of your opponent's Pokemon you get to take one of your prize cards and put it into your hand

[tylergodz]

thanks



[PrimetimePokemon]

@tylergodz you're welcome

[Heater64k]

make a battle video!!!!

[joshua123ldrago]

what does the bench cards do ?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@joshua123ldrago you can move them into the active Pokemon spot whenever your Pokemon is knocked out or retreats, it is just like the actual games

[joshua123ldrago]

@PrimetimePokemon thank you

[PrimetimePokemon]

@joshua123ldrago you're welcome

[Gymnast2298]

@SubRosaSpear cuz primetime is awesome

[SubRosaSpear]

I know how to play, why am I watching this?

[SSJBurger]

Thank you soooooooooo much. I saw a couple of players play this, and I had no idea what was going on.

[PrimetimePokemon]

@SSJBurger you're welcome

[deoxyslegend17]

what is a prize card???

[PrimetimePokemon]

@deoxyslegend17 a card that you get to put into your hand after you knock out one the your opponent's Pokemon

[deoxyslegend17]

@PrimetimePokemon thanks

[EpicWolf101]

So they keep them forever? Even in tourments

[PrimetimePokemon]

@EpicWolf101 your prize cards are part of your 60 card deck

[EpicWolf101]

Primetime, what kind of cards go in the prize card area and do u keep the prize cards?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@EpicWolf101 the first six cards from the top of your deck, and yes

[Silentonion]

How many different types can you use in a deck?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@Silentonion as many as you like

[Leapheeon]

@chocolatelego98

If you go to a real tournament such as nationals or regionals, you use dice because some people can place weights inside the coins to guarantee that it always lands on a certain side. (: With transparent dice, you'll be able to tell if there is a weight inside or not.

[ShivamRobloxDude01]

Hey Primetime, if a legend pokemon card is knocked out do both cards that go to the discard pile count as one or two? And also if let's say that I have a charizard lvl X and a charizard under it, when it gets knocked out does the non lvl X charizard go to the discard pile too? That would really help thx!

[PrimetimePokemon]

@ShivamRobloxDude01 when a Legend cards is knocked out it only gets one prize card, and if a Lv. X card is knocked out, all cards under it need to be discarded as well

[TheCardGamer17]

@PrimetimePokemon Really, if a legend card gets knocked out 2 prize cards are taken.

[PrimetimePokemon]

@willy99boy watch my video explaining about the lost zone

[crazyboy101ization]

Thanks for help!!!!!!

Keep up to good work :)

[PrimetimePokemon]

@crazyboy101ization you're welcome, I'll definitely keep the videos coming

[crazyboy101ization]

Does anything else count basic?so I could put it as my basic card?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@crazyboy101ization fossils

[crazyboy101ization]

Ok but what if it's a legendary non lvl X

[PrimetimePokemon]

@crazyboy101ization you just play them like anything else

[crazyboy101ization]

How do you use a legendary lvl X ?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@crazyboy101ization you just put any Lv. X card on top of a card with the same name, so Charizard G Lv. X would go on top of Charizard G

[legofreak1109]

prime do you HAVE to use 6 prizes some people say yes some people say no, but i really want to know from an expert

[KSE828]

@legofreak1109 Yes, both players must have 6 prizes.

[legofreak1109]

one time, when i played againts my cousin, i lost the coin so i used the card XD

[korbenkoko]

Ptp, do you actually play, you dont sound/look/talk or act like you do. if you do PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME cause like 90% of those cards were not tourament legal and the deck comletely sucked

[PrimetimePokemon]

@korbenkoko I do a little but this video was made awhile ago when the cards were playable

[PrimetimePokemon]

@primdemencionpokemon yes, check my Red Frenzy theme deck giveaway

[4293172]

After you give your pokemon the energy cost they need to attack where do you put the energy's i assumed the discard pile right or back in your hand

[PrimetimePokemon]

@4293172 you leave it next to the Pokemon

[4293172]

@PrimetimePokemon ok!

[HannaahTube]

do you may play with discard pile face down?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@HannaahTube you keep your discarded cards face up

[ConradStriker]

The lost zone was introduced before HGSS, bc of palkia Lv X

[SuperBigbang5]

What do i use for a prize card

[PrimetimePokemon]

@SuperBigbang5 top 6 cards from the top of your deck

[SuperBigbang5]

@PrimetimePokemon oh okay thanks

[rjroquewebsite]

i lov your vid

[PrimetimePokemon]

@rjroquewebsite thanks

[rezzaman55]

do you get to keep prize cards if you win them in the tcg

[PrimetimePokemon]

@rezzaman55 the prize cards you get are your own cards to start with

[ChocolateLego98]

Hey PTP, why do people tell me I need to roll a dice, and not flip a coin?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@ChocolateLego98 I am not sure

[LegionOfFriends]

can you use any different type of any energy for a colerless

[PrimetimePokemon]

@LegionOfFriends yes

[LegionOfFriends]

@PrimetimePokemon thanks luv ur vids

[andychubz]

what do you do if you dont have any energy cards in your turn

[PrimetimePokemon]

@andychubz you can't attack if you don't have the necessary energy cards

[andychubz]

@PrimetimePokemon thanks mate

most people dont reply to comments

[andychubz]

@PrimetimePokemon does that mean you skip your move and learn your apponent have his or her turn

[PrimetimePokemon]

@andychubz well you can still use trainers, supporters, etc...

[zakrom123456789]

One more Question How about if you dont have a Basic pokemon on my hand??

[PrimetimePokemon]

@zakrom123456789 you lose if you can't play a basic Pokemon

[Car88721]

how many types of pokemon can you have in your deck like fire water etc.

[zakrom123456789]

How about if the Basic pokemon is an evolution??

[PrimetimePokemon]

@zakrom123456789 it just has to say basic on the card

[PokeDude9277]

Ok thanks!

[PokeDude9277]

I have another question, are prize cards energy cards?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@PokeDude9277 prize cards are any cards from your deck, at the beginning of the game you just put 6 cards from your deck in the prize area without looking

[nerotheheross10]

@PokeDude9277 no prize cards are cards you select so when one of your pokemon hp hits zero your opponent picks one of the prize cards and kepp it the prize cards have to be pokemon

[PokeDude9277]

Can you put a legendary pokemon as your first active pokemon?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@PokeDude9277 as long as it is a basic Pokemon you can

[robotlsfe]

are the damage markers just stickers?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@robotlsfe pieces of cardboard

[robotlsfe]

@PrimetimePokemon Thanks!

[Shadow6182]

Thanks that helps a lot now

[PrimetimePokemon]

@Shadow6182 you're welcome

[Shadow6182]

If your active pokemon is destroyed do you take a pokemon from your bench and put it as your active pokemon?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@Shadow6182 yes, and if you don't have any benched Pokemon you lose

[Gineapiggylover]

Energy card come with the decks right?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@Gineapiggylover yes they do

[knextperson9]

Primetimepokemon please answer.

Do the pokemon cards have to be from the same series like for example

If i had black and white cards and HS undanted cards would i be able to do that?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@knextperson9 no they don't

[knextperson9]

@PrimetimePokemon ok thanks. PS i make these vids too but i dont have internet so i have to use my phone and i cant upload them for some reason.

Keep up the good work.

[PrimetimePokemon]

@knextperson9 thanks, I will definitely keep the videos coming

[cream667]

he has over 20,000

[lpentis]

when you attack and an energy card was just used do you put the energy card at the bottom of the deck and then shuffle?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@lpentis no, they stay on the card

[lpentis]

@PrimetimePokemon Thank you! That might be my only problem=)

[iaia126]

[PrimetimePokemon]

@iaia126 I want to do it in the future

[YeahThatGuy14]

so can you put an evolved pokemon out or do you have to evolve it from a basic one?

[PrimetimePokemon]

@YeahThatGuy14 you have to evolve it from a basic one

[PrimetimePokemon]

@treecko1235 you have to evolve it first

[OneLifeRemaining]

i'm so confusedd! D: 

[sinhaabhi58]

cant we attack without attaching energy card

[PrimetimePokemon]

@sinhaabhi58 only if the move doesn't require any energy cards or you have the necessary amount of energy cards attached to the Pokemon

[PrimetimePokemon]

[Duelist8970]

You put loudred on the bench and picked up a prize card for no reason. I dont care ifit was an expample, this will cause confusion on all beginners.

[Sharpshifta]

Boring! Didnt like at all

[mopar2001jbird]

[PrimetimePokemon]

[snorlaxpulls]

[PrimetimePokemon]

@HanzumKing I actually have a video explaining the Lost Zone you should watch it

[KickitupDude]

@HanzumKing Go to 3:36.

[aggron28]

PLEASE ANSWER THIS. PLLLLEEEEEEAAAASSSSSEEE.

Thanks, by the way your videos are really good

[PrimetimePokemon]

[FujiBuns]

[PrimetimePokemon]

@FujiBuns yes, $11.99

[FujiBuns]

@PrimetimePokemon Thanks, Now its time to go buy one:D

[FujiBuns]

Can you get those packs at wal-mart?

[Dragcoon64]

[PrimetimePokemon]

@Dragcoon64 no sorry

[pokemon7161]

stick to collecting. this is just not your thing buddy. you give bad advice and make some obvious mistakes that are against the rules.

[netpirate88]

i have 1800 pokemon cards for sale on ebay with 133 holos and 138 rares!!! item number: 220733157230 on ebay

[SetBlastersForStun]

Nice vid but whismer comes before loudred ;)

[kapatsos3]

i am going to send u some pokemon cards

[TurboCharizard]

nice vids

[tales12btfc]

So if you do use my idea maybe I'll get a mention in the video lol. Just kidding lol

[tales12btfc]

hey PTP you could try and hang the camera overhead for the battle video??? it means you could cover all of the playing mats without having to worry about moving camera etc???

[PrimetimePokemon]

@tales12btfc yes that would be a good idea

[coll123456789101112]

@PrimetimePokemon are u willing to trade srcizor from magjestic dawn i'm will to trade some cards form my collection

[EpikcGunner25]

primetime pokemon wanna trade?

[MrMasterGengar]

you know you put loundred on your bench LOL

[InUyAsHaGlitchCity]

awesome :D

[ohiokyle]

You can't play competitively on just this. You have to learn how to build a deck,techs, other decks, itimidation,Top Cut, This hasn't even scratched that. Plus theme decks are the worst decks to bring to tournaments.

[starraptor9]

this is kinda like yugioh but this is better
