The Pokémon Trading Card Game
My Favorite Hobby
The Pokémon Trading Card Game, abbreviated as PTCG or Pokémon TCG, is a collectible card game developed by Creatures Inc. based on the beloved Pokémon franchise. As of March 2023, the game has sold over 52.9 billion cards worldwide.
The Pokémon Trading Card Game is a strategy-based card game that is usually played on a designated playmat or digitally on the official game client Pokémon TCG Live where two players (assuming the role of Pokémon Trainer) use their Pokémon to battle one another. Pokémon trainers compete against eachother in tournaments all around the world to earn championship points, Pokémon product, and cash prizes. The competitive Seasons run from September through August, where the World Championships are held to declare "The Best That no One Ever Was" in their respective games and age divisions.
