this is a noob question but its bothering me

can poke powers and poke bodys be used while they are on the bench

i'm pretty sure i remeber poke bodys being able to but idk about poke powers

and one more thing do people play double battle or single in TCG??
 
Yeah, powers and bodies are used on the bench as well.

And I've never seen a double. All Organized play is single battling!

:D

Well, it's okay. I just got back into the game a few months ago. I'd say I'm intermediate now. lol

However, a new cut-off is coming, so if you are to buy a box, I would make it Platinum or after.
 
I don't like the word illegal, just not "tournament legal". You can still play unlimited decks, just not in tournaments. That is a VERY important distinction.
 
About the Poké-Powers...some ones have to be active to be used, such as Yanmega SV's Speed Boost or Toxicroak G Promo's Leep Away, but it's printed on the card if you can or not.
