In this Pokemon TCG Live Guide piece, we would talk about the common mistakes you make while playing the game, and how to avoid them.
Mistakes before battle and avoiding them
Some mistakes players make can be responsible from the moment the game even starts. Such mistakes include choosing irrelevant cards. Be it energy cards or trainer cards, try to select the cards in your decks according to the strategy. Also, going into combat without a pre-planned combat strategy is one of those things to avoid.

Each player making their own battle strategies is what adds that extra effect to this game. Therefore, never enter a fight without a strategy. Never think about what the opponent might do, there are a billion ways your opponent can rank his/her deck. Try to focus on strengthening your own deck. Now keep the following points in mind:
- Arrange your deck with a generous amount of necessary and relevant Trainer Cards.
- Instead of taking a lot of energy cards, you can keep trainer cards that would help draw or discard energy cards from the stock.
- Also choose more special energy cards than the normal ones. Take only the sufficient number of normal energy cards.
- Also, don’t think you can’t have a card until you open packs. You can exchange the remaining vacancy of a certain card type until you have 4 in total for gems.
- Avoid choosing V or V-max cards that deal little damage or have very low HP. Remember that if your opponent knocks over your V cards, he takes 2 prize cards. So if your V or V-max card doesn’t have a high multiplier attack or high HP, it’s basically useless.
Mistakes to avoid while fighting
It is necessary to keep in mind the complex rules of this game while fighting. When you are allowed to attack when all you need to do is store energy is only part of the tactic. But if you can attack is what the rules would tell you.
How to avoid mistakes during battle in Pokemon TCG Live
- First, keep in mind that a maximum of 4 of the same types of Pokemon cards are allowed in a deck. Therefore, if you plan your strategies around a particular Pokemon, keep all 4 of that particular Pokemon card in your deck.
- A very small but big mistake many players make is not making a strong bank. Remember, if there are no Pokemon on your Bench as soon as your Active Pokemon is eliminated, the game ends and you lose.
- Keep track of the time. Don’t take a lot of time for each turn and think about your next moves. Remember, if your time is up and you still haven’t won all 6 prize cards, you lose. Even if you have won more Prize Cards than your opponent.
- Do not use all trainer cards in one turn. In that case, you would find useless cards from the deck, one on each turn. The game basically shows all possible moves during a turn. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean you have to take that step. Use your own mind in such circumstances.
- Also, don’t waste time reading the instructions on the card when it’s your turn. Do it when it’s the opponents turn.
- If you have any cards left in your hand, do not play the “Professor’s Research” card, even if the game directs you to. Only use it if your hand is about to run out, or if you have cards that don’t help at the moment.
- Also, make sure your opponents don’t switch between their Pokemon if you can’t take out the Pokemon you’re about to bring to their active zone in one fell swoop. If you do this, there could be consequences. Swap your opponent’s Pokemon as your overall last move. Suppose you have 2 prize cards left, then you swap your opponent’s active Pokemon with a possible V-Pokemon from his bank and take him out with one move.
- Finally, remember that in addition to your own tactics and strategies, the game also depends on luck, such as how good your hand is. So if you have a bad hand, there’s always next time.
