Seriously. I know this is mainly a gaming site, but I can't be the only one here, one can I?

I'm really only into two TCGs, and they're both ridiculously mainstream. I have a Psychic deck in the Pokemon TCG and 3 Yu-gi-oh decks(A Toon deck, A Sea Serpent deck, and a Psychic deck).

Discuss, fagnuggets.

Personally, I've never really been into them. Well, apart from when the Pokémon cards first came out, they looked so cool :]

I have a few friends that actively play that Magic: The Gathering TCG. I like the pictures on them too, but I don't own any myself, nor play the game.

Yeah, it's kinda funny. Nobody gave a shit about the game when Pokemon cards were a fad. I only knew because I owned that obscure Gameboy Color game. It's actually pretty fun.

I've heard a lot of good about Magic: The Gathering, but I've been way to lazy to get into it.

I've never been into cards.

The only 'card' I owned was for pokemon, and that came with the first movie. (Mewtwo card, I think)

Because I don't live in a country where TCGs (other than Magic The Gathering) become a trend, I stick to TCG videogames.

I played Pokémon TCG, and I play Yu-Gi-Oh.

My brother gave me his entire Pokemon card collection a while back. Dunno where it is. And my friends at school play Yugioh when they're really bored.

I had a whole deck of hand me down pokemon cards, but I lost all but a Caterpie card.

I have plenty of magic the gathering cards, I would play with someone, but the only people who have them are my brother and cousin, and they're too good, Id end up losing all my cards

I collected Pokemon cards, but never played with them. managed to get all of the original 151, but after that, it was a challenge to get them all. My friend got hold of a bunch of newer packs, and ended up giving me the stack, so I made a Dark/Grass deck for shits and giggles.

Yu-Gi-Oh!, on the other hand... I have 2 decks that can powerhouse through anything, well, at least from when they were made. Now there are those cards that are basically instant wins without trying.

I previously collected Pokemon cards when they came out, up to the beginning Hoenn sets, but rarely played with it. Eventually, though, I discovered a local Pokemon TCG League and joined. Since then, I've been playing the TCG. Back then, I could afford to keep up with new sets, but at this point, almost all of my cards are outdated. I still manage to churn out a legal deck and play, though.

No, they don't make particular pokemon cards illegal. They just rotate out the older sets come a certain time every year or so. So you can't use cards that are years old or anything, they have to be in a certain time frame. That time frame is over a year old, so if you've got any pokemon card from the Diamond and Pearl sets onwards, plus promos and certain packs, you can use them. They never ban specific cards, though. There's also often reprints of certain cards, so if you've got a 10 year old Potion, you can still use it since it was reprinted. The same goes for many pokemon, trainers, and energy.

Back in the 3rd grade, pokemon cards were like the shit...we didn't play the game right but hell it was fun showing off all our sweet ass cards, I didn't really get anything good though ever and all my friends had like cards that were actually good. Then next year everyone moved on to Yu-Gi-Oh cards and I didn't bother with TCG after that.
