Game description

Pokemon's trading card game was (unexpectedly to some) a huge hit, and what better way to capitalize on a video game based card game than a video game? One might suspect this is a stinker, but it's really quite faithful and well done. The plot is almost exactly like most other Pokemon games: you want to be the very best card game player of all, and want to obtain the legendary cards. To do this you need to obtain all the badg- er, medals and kick your rival's butt. Cards are received through trades and beating other card players to get booster packs, and they all act as you expect them to along with a few digital exclusives. Difficulty isn't the hardest, but some medal fights can cause trouble.

Unfortunately the sequel did not make it outside of Japan, but the TCG itself is still going along with an online version or two.
