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 up 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.

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.
