== Contents == | |||
{{ | |||
Each card has at least one attack listed, sometimes up to three, and most attacks use a set amount of [[Energy card]]s that the Pokémon must have attached to it in order to use that attack. 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. | |||
Also printed on each card is [[Elemental types (TCG)|Type]], rarity, set, set number and a Pokédex entry as flavor text. | |||
Some cards may also contain a Weakness, Resistance, Retreat Cost or a Poképower or Pokébody. | |||
== Stages == | |||
Pokémon cards have four stages: | |||
*[[Baby Pokémon (TCG)|Baby]], which is considered one stage lower than basic Pokémon-however, they are not required to play their evolved forms. They represent [[Baby Pokémon]] in the games. | |||
*[[Basic Pokémon (TCG)|Basic]], which is a Pokémon that does not evolve from any other (aside from Baby Pokémon). Pokémon which do not evolve to or from another Pokémon and [[Pokémon SP]] are classified as Basic. | |||
*[[Stage 1 Pokémon (TCG)|Stage 1]], which is a Pokémon which has evolved from a Basic Pokémon, and | |||
*[[Stage 2 Pokémon (TCG)|Stage 2]], which is a Pokémon which has evolved from a Stage 1 Pokémon. | |||
