'''Pokémon Play It! v2''' is a Pokémon game for {{wp|Personal computer|PC}} that simulates the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. It is the sequel to [[Pokémon Play It!]]. It is similar to the video games {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}} and {{g|Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!}}.
 
The "Play" mode is divided into fifteen levels: five "Basic", three "Basic Challenges", six "Advanced" and one "Advanced Challenge". Those without "Challenge" it their name are tutorial levels, with pre-designed, non-shuffled decks, using only one prize, used to teach the player various aspects of the game, such as retreating, [[status ailment]]s, {{TCG|Pokémon Power}}s etc. Coin tosses are also usually not random. These levels replace most of the less interactive content of the "Learn" feature of the original, although parts of it can still be found in version 2.
 
In the "Challenge" levels, the player can play actual duels against Julie. "Basic Challenges" use the half decks from the original. Those three levels are [[Fighting Deck (TCG)|Fighting]] vs. [[Water Deck (TCG)|Water]], [[Water Deck (TCG)|Water]] vs. [[Fighting Deck (TCG)|Fighting]] and [[Fire Deck (TCG)|Fire]] vs. [[Fighting Deck (TCG)|Fighting]] duels, respectively. The "Advanced Challenge" mode is where the player can play a match using standard 60-card decks, choosing from seven available decks. Unlike the original, Julie can also use any of the decks (although it is not possible for both sides to use the same deck).
 
The seven decks available are the {{TCG|Electric Zap}}, [[Flame On Deck (TCG)|Flame On]], [[Hit'Em Hard Deck (TCG)|Hit'Em Hard]], [[Poisonpowder Deck (TCG)|Poisonpowder]], [[Psychic Dream Deck (TCG)|Psychic Dream]], [[Royalty Deck (TCG)|Royalty]] and [[Wet and Wild Deck (TCG)|Wet and Wild]] decks. They are composed of cards form {{TCG|Base Set}}, {{TCG|Jungle}}, {{TCG|Fossil}} and {{TCG|Team Rocket}} sets.
 
The game fixes two issues from the original [[Pokémon Play It!]]. It is now possible to put Pokémon on the {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Bench}} before the play starts; players no longer need to wait for their first turn to put Pokémon on the bench. An Energy card is now discarded from {{TCG ID|Base Set|Magmar|36}} when using the Flamethrower attack.
 
==Other features==
The "Learn" and "Extras" modes are similar to the original. The two new features are "Collect" and "Build". In the "Collect" mode, the player can keep track of the cards he/she owns in real life. In "Build" mode, the player can learn about creating decks or make custom ones and later print the list of cards needed for it. Version 2 also added the option to turn off Julie's vocal remarks.
