These are the most important things to do if you are a beginner to Pokemon TCG Live:

  • Complete the Daily Quests: Every day you will get Daily Quests to complete. These can range from dealing damage with a certain type of Pokemon, evolving them, or attaching Energy to them. Completing them is vital for accumulating Coins and Experience.
  • Focus on the Battle Pass: With the release of each expansion, a new Battle Pass starts. By collecting Experience, you will move up the Battle Pass and earn Booster Packs of the current expansion. Collecting and opening as many of these as possible is important, as doing so will let you build decks to try out.
  • Try out all the decks provided to you: TCG Live has several preconstructed decks for you to try out. These include decks built around meta staples like Gholdengo ex, Dragapult ex, and Charizard ex. Test these decks out online before bringing them to a local league or a Play! Pokemon tournament.
  • Focus on playing Ranked Matches with other players: Ranked Matches are the best way to test yourself against other human players. This way, you can test your deck to find out what’s working for you and the matchups you are struggling against. Additionally, ranking up will earn you more rewards to better build your decks.
