I hope very much you find it useful let's begin. Let's begin with the beginner's category as I think this is one of the most common questions asked you are looking to start playing are much more likely you've got a child that wants to start planning possibly a very young child what do you get we've talked about theme decks before on this channel and picking up a couple of these is always fine but if you're looking for an excellent gift for someone who is just getting started the Pokemon battle academy has my highest recommendation one battle academy is a boxed self-contained game the functions in many ways like a board game you don't need anything else except what's in the box in order to play and it offers a repeatable and engaging experience but the reason

I recommend this for brand new players is that experience is completely engineered as a learning one you see Pokemon battle academy sets up a consistent tutorial experience with all card types and rules introduced and even laid out upon the playing board I just love this thing it shows you where all the different pieces go which can be very overwhelming for new players and it has what is essentially reminder taxed telling you the basics of what happens on each slot this is fantastic for teaching kids how to play quite frankly.

it's fantastic for teaching mom and dad at a place in St ideal way to keep information flowing without there being too much to take in at once the box is set up with an initial tutorial mode where the guides can take you through gameplay by play and then replay value is available by shuffling the Texan just having regular games of Pokemon once the basics are down you can even introduce a more complex mute to deck to the equation having a natural progression within the box helps players feel like they're learning and prolongs the need to supplement product with additional cards though this is perfectly open for you to begin upgrading the tax by buying a few booster packs which in themselves make great stocking stuffers wars you grow more experienced with gameplay simply replacing these beginner decks with intermediate ones and keeping the board and all its wonderful reminder taxed overall.

Decks are balanced and represented the good depth of gameplay for those new to the trading card game the product itself is very well designed with a 2 player game board being both informative and surprisingly sturdy and if you ever have any questions there's a wealth of material in the guts at 3999 this product provides solid value and I can say without a doubt it's the best Pokemon product on the market for younger inexperienced players or for adding to your board game shelf as a pick-up and play 2 player experience that requires no prior knowledge of the Pokemon TCG whether you're wanting to teach a friend how to play your kid a niece or nephew or even running an after school game club Pokemon battle academy is a home run of a product for the beginning Pokemon TCG fan in your life.

So what about for someone who knows more or less how to play the game and is ready to take the next step something like a theme deck is way too basic for a player like that and certainly battle academy is of little or no use to them either that's why I'd recommend picking up the sash in league battled back from them however you battle decks on this channel before and ever since the requires a versus called the battle decks in 2016 Pokemon has continued to put up strong products for budding competitive TCG players possession league battle deck released November 20 and it retails for about 2495 inside the box you'll find a ready to play 60 card deck as well as acrylic condition markers and acrylic tag team G. X.

marker along with the competition legal coin flip died and 6 damage counter die this makes for the perfect start for the Pokemon player who's ready to become more competitive not to mention that it comes with a code card to redeem the entire deck online so that you can play for free digitally with the exact same deck you haven't paper what a great tool for 2495 this offer serious value not only do you get that 60 card playable right out of the box deck but this is a deck that's built to be able to take down to the weekly Pokemon league at your local game store making it not just playable out of the box but competitive out of the box the deck is full of great reprints that hold value meaning that as you become more experienced with competitive play you're going to have lots of tools to either upgrade into the stack or take from this deck to upgrade others seriously so many of the cards that are included here are extremely popular competitive Pokemon right now and will continue to be so for some time keep in mind to purchase these 3 face cards would already set you back a good $20 so if you're after these cards a singles anyway that makes this an even better deal this legal battle deck is a stellar option for the budding competitive player or 2 a former competitive player just looking to get back into the game but of course not everyone who loves...

The Pokemon TCG actually plays at in fact some whites argue that. Or people collect Pokemon cards than actually play with Dax what do you get as a gift for the collector friend in your life who maybe doesn't want to build the deck imply but wants to get some great prices to put in their binders currently the best product aimed right at collectors is the Marni premium collection retailing at 5995 it's a premium gift for sure but it comes with a lot of what collectors want including foil cards of both grim snarl and more Pico 8 Pokemon TCG champions path booster packs remember these are collector item in and of themselves as they're not sold Lucerne bush boxes there's also some fun collector's items like a playmat featuring Marnie and her Pokemon partners and 2 collector's pins out of everything here I think the most appealing are those champions path booster packs champions path is extremely popular set among collectors into the chance that you could open a chars art V.

Max Rodgers R. V. you're still retailing for over $350 8 packs of the special set is a good amount and the Marni premium collection comes second only to the champions path elite trainer box in the quantity of champions path booster packs as you recall from my review of the elite trainer boxes 10 packs in it and it's so highly desired that it's been sold out just about everywhere but when we compare that this product comes with 8 packs it's pretty close in value and a lot more readily available outside of those packs the foil promo cards and their accompanying pins are great includes and of course there's a digital code card for redemption on the online client.

The morning premium collection has a good selection of contents and I think when it comes to these more high-end collector boxes this is an example of one done right it's all killer and not that much filler if you need to pick up a gift for a Pokemon collector I really do recommend this one the inclusion of a play mat is a nice way to top off the contents as well so if you're looking to buy a gift for the Pokemon trainer in your life those are my 3 top recommendations this season for beginners it's the Pokemon battle academy box home run for teaching the game for the advanced player this ashy on league battled act is a stepping stone on their quest to become a master TCG player or perhaps to return to being one and for collectors, there's a lot and for collectors, it's hard not to covet

The Marni premium collection which is stuffed full of champions path boosters and fun collectibles like pins in a plane that book about of course has a ton of great products out there and though I really recommend these 3 today there are other products that I think you might want to keep an eye open for when you're doing your holiday gift shopping if you really want to dazzle someone from collector to competitive player to someone young and just starting out if you can find one the champions path elite trainer box he is a fantastic product on all fronts and no one is going to be sad to get this as a gift likewise the deck builder's toolkit remains as the best option for enhancing the deck building and game play you have at home it comes with a wealth of playable trainer cards and 2 copies of DNA Geox and overall is a solid companion when powering up any pre constructed deck that you've bought or built from the cards in your booster packs and I've course of reviewed both these products which you can check out for further details here and don't forget that product accessories like deck boxes and sleeves make for fun stocking stuffers Pokemon TCG cards are.
