Line 4:
This game's plot is just [[Pokémon Red and Blue|Red/Blue]]'s plot, but swap actual Pokemon for Pokemon cards. The Pokemon TCG starts you as off a young boy named Mark that is just starting out. You're given a choice of a starter deck that parallels the choice of the starter Pokemon in the Red/Blue games (fire, water, grass). You're taught the rules within the first 10 minutes of playing. You may "battle" NPC's that you meet and win booster packs from them. The main objective of the game is to defeat the 8 Gym Leaders... I mean Club Masters, and eventually the Elite 4, erm... Grand Masters. Upon completing the main objective, the player inherits 4 ultra-rare cards.

=== Tropes: ===
* [[Artificial Stupidity]]: The AI, even at its highest level, doesn't understand a stall deck (Even its own on occasions, willing to mill itself to death). It will only retreat to dispel status effects or to save important Pokémon with Pokémon Powers.
* [[Auto Pilot Tutorial]]: Your first match against one of Prof. Mason's assistants is played with stacked decks and instructions that forced you to play particular cards. Tool assisted speedruns have completed the entire rest of the game in the time it takes to finish the tutorial.
