Pokémon Trading Card Game
Two players choose six Pokémon, creatures that live in the game series' fictional universe, to fight against each other. Both players can only play one Pokémon at a time, while the other five Pokémon wait on a "bench". Each player takes turns attacking the other player's Pokémon. The turn ends either if the attacking player attacks the other player or if they pass their turn. Each Pokémon has a certain number of Hit Points, or HP. Every Pokémon's HP is a multiple of 10. Many attacks take away the other player's Pokémon's HP, but many Pokémon also have attacks that do not do damage, but instead have other effects such as making the player's Pokémon not lose any HP for a turn, cause the other player's Pokémon to sleep, be paralyzed, be confused, or be paralyzed, or many other different effects. If your or the other player's Pokémon's HP reaches 0 HP, then the Pokémon is knocked out. This means the Pokémon cannot fight anymore and must be put in the discard pile. If a player's Pokémon knocks out the other player's, then the player can take a prize. The number of prizes that can be drawn is decided before the game begins. There can be two, three, four, fix, or six prizes, depending on what the players decide.
