Personally, I think this thread is quite redundant, considering the Main site already has Card Scans, but perhaps some other people my find it convenient after all... hmm...
 
Well for PumpedAaron, and everyone else that says that, I have two points:

1. A lot of people, in the past, have told me this is quite useful to them
2. Here is why I personally use it:

- Making a deck
- Pokemon lines done
- Energy kinda figured out
- Main trainers kinda figured out
- Remember this is building, meaning I haven't tested anything yet
- By now it's about 40-45 cards
- What would be the best card to put it, say, to find the Pokemon in my deck? Well I just look at the list!

That's the point of this summarized list. I don't think people like going through every set looking at every trainer and then still missing that their deck could play better with a level ball compared to an ultra ball, for example. This list has similar cards near each other and a quick summary of what they do. Right now you may be right (since there are only 6 expansions to choose from) but once this season starts rolling this list will be more useful than you think.

I actually think it's quite useful because it gives a quick summary of what the cards do and its well organized and grouped for easy access. However, everyone is entitled to their own opinions.
 
This seems like it would be pretty useful for new players. You should add victory cup, you know, just in case they want to run 8 Poke Balls :p
 
Nice list also Dark Patch should be at Energy Manipulation not Tool. Also in EXP. share it looks like if you attached the card to the active pokemon not the benched pokemon.
 
Wasn't Victory Medal rotated?

It's a HGSS promo...
 
Honestly this list doesn't do much for me. I guess I know the cards and the meta a lot more than a player that is just starting, but they usually just net deck till they get a good idea of what the meta is.
 
I gotta disagree with Martin, I think this is much useful. I mean for people who don't netdeck it seems p nice to easily look through this list for potential odd techs.
And the op is layed out very nicely, good job.
 
With the stadiums you missed Battle City. FaCiH draw a card.
That got released in USA didn't it.

Oh my bad, it's been moved. EXP. Share has been updated.

And we need to remove Victory Medal, it was rotated.


Right, putting it up. VM is gone.

Hey, I'm actually having second-thoughts about this thread after all =)! Its great that you've categorized each Trainer Card into each of their unique styles in which they manipulate the game (Energy Manipulation, Pokemon Manipulation, Pokemon Search). I was thinking, though, you COULD put Pluspower, Eviolite, and Dark Claw in their own category called Damage Manipulation, its debatable, but Rocky Helmet might fit in there too. EXP. Share counts as Energy manipulation, too.

Also Water Pokemon Master is having some technical difficulties with the Card Scans section, so I'm checking this page out in the meantime.
 
@ iisnumber12 - I'll add Tropical Beach but I think Victory Cup is already on there under special card (1st, 2nd 3rd place).

@ PumpedAaron - Thanks, I'm glad you can use this! I don't really want to separate the tools into categories but I might make a damage manipulation section.
