1. Think about the Pokémon trading cards you want to gather

You need to think carefully before starting to build a deck of Pokémon trading cards. What type of Pokémon would you like it to be? Water or Fire? Do you want it to have a cute Pokémon or powerful Pokémon? Or do you simply want to collect Pokémon of the same type?

You can combine many Pokémon of different types in the same deck. However, it is important to pay attention to the appropriate selection of Pokémon trading cards to ensure that these types can support each other. If combined correctly, it will create a large attack point. An example is a Water-type Pokémon that will coordinate with an Electric-type Pokémon.

Besides, the Pokémon trading cards also need to support each other. Your Psychic-type Pokémon cards will be very afraid of Dark-type Pokémon. If you own Psychic-type Pokémon trading cards, you need to own more Fighting-type Pokémon trading cards. This is the rule of types in the Pokémon world and you will need to know.

2. Think about your opponent's kill strategy when building a Pokémon trading card deck

When participating in a Pokémon Trading Card Game you have 3 ways to win. Each turn: collect six Prize cards (cards you are able to add to your hand when you defeat your opponent's Pokémon); defeat all of your opponent's Pokémon on the field; leave your opponent with no cards to draw.

From there, you need to answer the following questions:

- Which of the three ways your Pokémon trading card deck should focus on? And how can that gameplay be achieved?

- How can your strategy fail if you meet an opponent? Which Pokémon trading cards will help you reduce the weaknesses and enhance the strengths of the deck?

3. Keep the balance between Pokémon trading cards

The number of Characters (Pokémon), Trainer, and Energy cards can be uneven in a base deck. What you need to do is balance the number of these cards to suit your playing style.

Besides, it is necessary to create an explosion of power when combining cards. These Pokémon trading cards are usually cards that are closely related and support each other. For example, the Pokémon duo Hydreigon and Darkrai-EX are very good at switching positions and energies freely. Such a good combination will give you an advantage in the match.

4. Choose the right Trainer cards for the deck

You need about 5 to 8 qualified trainer cards to help you draw. If you do not draw the required card, you cannot win. Remember that you can add up to 4 identical Pokémon trading cards to the deck. If the deck relies heavily on a single card, you should increase the probability of drawing it by placing more cards of the same type in the deck.

You should have about 5 cards that can support and power up the Pokémon. The remaining space can be used to fight a common card or exploit a weakness, or refresh the hand/Pokémon on the bench.

5. Experience the feeling of drawing cards like in a match

Many factors go into creating a strong Pokémon trading card deck, and one of them is the familiarity of the deck. Following all the steps above, you should feel the feeling of drawing and using cards as in a match.

The most powerful Pokémon trading card deck will be a deck with multiple Trainer/Support cards. However, this will affect the probability of drawing a Pokémon Basic card. Remember, your turn will begin when you draw at least 1 Basic Pokémon card. Therefore, you can consider balancing the number of cards if you have problems with the test.

6. Consider reducing the number of evolution cards

Evolving takes up a lot of precious time in the game. You should only use evolution cards that are important to your strategy and in case you have a trainer that helps Pokémon evolve rapidly. The more time you spend evolving your Pokémon, the more time your opponent will have to prepare and attack. Example: Charizard GX has a powerful attack that deals 300 damage. You must help it evolve twice and gain energy before Charizard GX can use its main attack. Then remove the 3 attached energy.

Based on our experience building Pokémon decks, Japan-Figure will give you tips to build a Pokémon trading card deck that works best for you.

- Remember that the strongest deck is the one that best suits your playing style.

- Remember to put the Pokémon trading cards in a safe and convenient place, and keep the strong cards to use when needed.

- The deck isn't always what you want it to be. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the function of the cards while building the deck.

- Pay attention to keeping the ratio of energy and damage. Choose a Pokémon that deals a lot of damage (or causes status) with low mana.

- Remember that a deck of Pokémon trading cards can only contain 60 cards. Not more and not less.

- When building a deck of Pokémon trading cards, you need to remember that having a strong attacking Pokémon does not guarantee victory.

A strong deck usually has about 20 Pokémon, 20 trainer cards, and 20 energy cards.

- If you want to use more types of Pokémon, use Pokémon that can use colourless energy to attack.

- You should learn in advance the opponent's play style and from there build appropriate decks to counter them. However, your opponent will certainly do the same. Be very careful when doing this.
