(This is a copy paste from another one of my posts figured it would get more eyeballs here)

First off if this isn’t the right place to post or there’s a better community to throw this in please let me know.

Now off to the post. Me and my GF got into the whole ttrpg and card game and actually have money to do so

Anyways this whole silly adhd interest between us made me dig up my pokemon cards (binder form when I was in elementary school and decks I built like a couple years ago)

My distribution of my decks is 30/15/15

Now whether this is Pokemon/energy/items I honestly don’t remember. But is it a good distribution or would I want to to less uniform numbers like 28/12/20

If I do where should I start deck building cus honestly I bet I have decent cards but absolutely terrible synergy between cards and stuff

Thanks for the tip

I was rebuilding my decks and in my water deck i have a lot of stage 1s and basics to make it easier to build them up so in that deck I’d probably want more trainer cards

As for my psychic grass deck for example It still has a couple evolutions but it’s nothing I can’t go without so then I’d probably want slightly more energies since I thought that was a problem area

I always struggle with starting (no matter the task) so would a good general be start with 10 pokemon then build items (like if im going for evolutions or something) around them. Then build the energies based on what pokemon I want to pull and how their energy demand is. Then in occasionally see if I’m lacking damage or don’t have enough support

I mean that’s what I’m thinking but like I said starting is hard for me

Figuring out decks can be a lot of work but some cards are pretty much always useful. Professor's Research can save you from a bad hand and Ultra Balls can get you evolutions if they aren't showing up. For mixed color decks you might want Energy Search or maybe some variety of Rainbow Energy cards (but you can only have up to 4 of each special energy).

Ok so pretty much start with the few pokemon I really want then item cards to get them. Then just kinda fill in the gaps with other pokemon and items that have synergies as I go

I don’t remember if I said it here but this is just for fun between friends nothing serious
