Can you use old cards in Pokemon TCG?
Absolutely, you can use old cards in the Pokemon TCG, but it really depends on what format you're playing. In casual play, anything goes as long as your friends are cool with it. For official tournaments, Pokemon TCG has different formats like Standard and Expanded. Standard only allows the most recent sets, while Expanded includes cards from a wider range of sets. So dust off those oldies but goodies for your next casual game, or check if they fit into the Expanded format for something more competitive!

Hot take: Honestly, just focus on the new cards. The game evolves, and so should your deck. Plus, newer cards are usually more balanced for the current meta.
Old cards? Yup, I've been using them for years in casual play. My friends and I love mixing it up with cards from all different eras. It's like a trip down memory lane every game night. Just remember, the look on their face when you pull out a vintage card they forgot about is priceless.
