1. When posting a deck, please post the expansion of each card. There are many different expansions that each Pokemon is from.
2. Inform us of your basic strategy. Are you trying to pull evolution cards and destroy your opponent? Or are you trying to play things out with bench damage and status conditions? These are things we need to know.
3. Make categories of each type of card. Put the Pokemon in a Pokemon section, all energies in an energy section, etc.
4. Only one deck is allowed to be posted in one topic.
5. Do not bash others' decks. We're not all experts, that's why we have this forum. If you have nothing constructive or useful to say, don't post it.
6. Do not ask people to give you a deck configuration. This is considered spam.
7. For those who it isn't clear to, this isn't a forum where we literally rate the decks on a point scale. Don't post 7/10 or anything like that.
The purpose of the forum is to improve the decks.
Basic decking rules:
-All decks must have exactly 60 cards. No more, no less.
-No more than four of one card can be used in a deck, excluding energy cards. It doesn't matter if the cards are from different sets, the maximum for each card is four.
-You have to have at least one basic Pokemon in your deck.
-Any cards that are pre-Diamond and Pearl are not tourney-legal. That doesn't mean you can't post cards from earlier sets, it just means don't waltz into the Pokemon TCG League and plan to uber pwn everyone with your ancient deck.
Any decks that do not fulfill the decking rules will be locked.
