Engine (TCG): Difference between revisions

An '''Engine''' in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] is a player-made term used to refer to a series of cards that, when played, greatly increase a player's drawing speed, thus helping them burn through their deck faster.  The most famous and effective engine is probably the infamous [[Holon Engine (TCG)|Holon Engine]], which consists entirely of trainer cards.  However, while engines are almost always centered around trainer cards, some engines are centered around Pokémon cards.  If an engine is based around Pokémon cards, though, the Pokémon will probably sit on a player's bench and utilize its [[Pokémon Power|Poké-Power]]. Some cards could be considered engines by themselves, such as {{TCG ID|EX Power Keepers|Delcatty|8}}.   In essence, the power of an engine is its drawing ability. Here are some good examples of engines:

===Single-Card Engines===

===Multi-Card Engines===

 

(Listed Cards are the center of the engine, and the engine is usually named for these cards)
