The "Play" mode is divided into fifteen levels: five "Basic", three "Basic Challenges", six "Advanced" and one "Advanced Challenge". Those without "Challenge" in 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. | The "Play" mode is divided into fifteen levels: five "Basic", three "Basic Challenges", six "Advanced" and one "Advanced Challenge".

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). | In the "Challenge" levels, the player can play actual duels against Julie.

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. | The game fixes two issues from the original [[Pokémon Play It!]].
