-'''Pokémon''' in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] are any card on which there is a Pokémon that is represented as they are in the {{pkmn|games}}. This means, therefore, they have a possible Weakness, Resistance, [[Elemental types (TCG)|Type]], Retreat cost, and are either considered [[Baby Pokémon (TCG)|Baby]], [[Basic Pokémon (TCG)|Basic]], [[Stage 1 Pokémon (TCG)|Stage 1]], or {{TCG|Stage 2 Pokémon}}. They will also have a value designated as their Hit Points, which runs no lower than 30, and, until the ex arc, most often no higher than 120.

+A '''Pokémon''' in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] is any card on which there is a Pokémon that is represented as they are in the {{pkmn|games}}. Pokémon are used in the TCG to battle an opponent's Pokémon, much like Trainers battle in the games. Each card has at least one attack listed, sometimes yp to three, and each attack uses a set amount of [[Energy card]]s that the Pokémon must have attached to it in order to use that attack. Also printed on each card is a possible Weakness, Resistance, [[Elemental types (TCG)|Type]], Retreat cost, and a Pokédex entry as flavor text.
+Pokémon are either considered [[Baby Pokémon (TCG)|Baby]], [[Basic Pokémon (TCG)|Basic]], [[Stage 1 Pokémon (TCG)|Stage 1]], or {{TCG|Stage 2 Pokémon}}. They will also have a value designated as their Hit Points, which runs no lower than 30, and, until the ex arc, most often no higher than 120.
