Players strategically battle each other with Pokémon cards, defeating opposing Pokémon to claim victory.
Each player has 60 cards, including Pokémon cards, Trainer cards, and Energy cards. Players draw 7 cards from their 60-card deck at the start.
Players strengthen their cards, gain energy, and attack opponents. If a player's Pokémon's HP drops to 0, it is "knocked out," and the attacker takes a prize card.
