When we first started playing the Pokémon TCG Diamond/Pearl expansion, we had many questions about gameplay. There was some confusion because the old rules are a bit different from the new ones. Here are some of the rules that confused us at first.
1. The first player draws a card. This player may not evolve basics or use trainer, supporter or stadium cards.
2. The second player cannot evolve basics, but s/he can use trainer, supporter or other non-pokemon cards.
3. The player who wins the flip can choose to go first or second.
4. Fossils now give a prize card when KO'd.
5. Fossils are considered pokemon when in play, trainers when in one's hand.
6. New weakness/resistances are +10, -20, etc. On the old cards, that don't have numbers, they are played as weakness = double damage and resistance takes -30 off damage.
7. If an active Pokémon is KO'd doing damage to itself, the opponent takes a prize card.
8. If a benched Pokémon is KO'd, the opponent takes a prize card.
Any other rules that I should list here that are sometimes confusing?
