Alright, diving right into the Pokemon TCG world, the major diff between Standard and Expanded formats is all about the card pool you're allowed to use. Standard is super fresh, allowing cards from the recent sets only, keeping the game evolving and exciting, cycling out older sets. Expanded, on the other hand, is like the wild west, with a much broader card pool going back several years, giving players the freedom to pull off more diverse and complex strategies. So, if you like constant change and the latest cards, go Standard. If you're into digging into a vast library of cards for those perfect combos, Expanded is your playground!

Standard for sure, keeps the game more balanced and easier to keep up with for newer players.
