The [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] has been sold in Germany since December 1999 with the introduction of {{TCG|Base Set}}. The game was originally distributed by [[Wizards of the Coast]] and later by [[The Pokémon Company International]] after Wizards of the Coast lost their license to distribute the TCG. Both partnered with local board and card game company {{wp|Amigo Spiele|Amigo}} to utilise their distribution channels and for game store-centred organised play. | |||
German-language cards are recognized as tournament legal | Most expansion sets released in English are also available in German, with only a handful of exceptions, such as [[Gym Heroes (TCG)|Gym Heroes]] and [[EX Team Rocket Returns (TCG)|EX Team Rocket Returns]]. Prior to the release of the [[XY (TCG)|XY base-set]], German TCG product typically became available about two or three months after it had been in English, mirroring the then-staggered international release schedule of the video games. Since XY, German TCG product now releases concurrently with the English product. German-language cards are recognized as tournament legal by [[Play! Pokémon]]. | ||
